    If you're familiar with Grizzly Adams, you've likely seen our past 1970s movies and TV series produced by Sunn Classic Pictures, Inc. The real Grizzly Adams was a rugged frontier woodsman, hunter, animal trainer, and entertainer with a deep connection to the American West's wildlife. Born in Massachusetts in 1812, John "Grizzly" Adams left his wife and daughters in 1849 to make a living. During his travels, he obtained a cub bear he named Ben Franklin, after its mother died. Over time, Ben and Grizzly became like family, sharing many adventures, including performing with the P.T. Barnum Circus. Although Grizzly trained wild animals, many of his injuries came from the dangerous animals he worked with. He became famous but tragically passed away in 1860 after returning home for a final visit to his family. 
    Our new Grizzly Adams story takes place in the present day, featuring his great-great-great-grandson, a big man like his ancestor. After being discharged from the military, he encounters a terrible car accident involving a grizzly bear. He rescues a young boy, Tony, and a baby grizzly bear whose mother had died trying to protect her cub. After helping Tony and the cub, Grizzly takes them to town, where Tony and the cub are adopted. The cub is named Ben, and a new adventure begins for Grizzly, Tony, and Ben.

    Eighth in a popular series, which can also be a stand-alone listen. 
    Who killed the rabbi's brother? And why? 
    Semi-reformed hacker Steve Levitan explores a part of his background -- growing up Jewish in the Trenton suburbs.  
    A young man suffering from mental illness disrupts the blessing of the animals at the synagogue he attends, a congregation where he grew up and celebrated his bar mitzvah. 
    This starts Steve and his clue-sniffing golden retriever Rochester on their newest investigation, one that will take Steve back into the past of his family, his congregation, and the Jewish population of the city where he was born. As Steve teaches a class in Jewish American literature, he and Rochester nose out suspects and dig up clues to present-day crimes-and ones in the past which still influence the living. From the rabbi's Talmud study group to a homeless shelter in Trenton, our two intrepid sleuths are on the trail of someone with deep secrets, and the will to kill to protect them.
