About Ted Mulcahey
Ted’s observations and stories are formed by his stint in the Army, his sales, marketing, and entrepreneurial activities, and his life growing up as one of nine siblings in a typical Irish Catholic family.
Starting in New England he managed to find his way to the Pacific Northwest where he has lived for over three decades. He now lives on an island in the middle of Puget Sound with his wife and trusted GSD, Emma.

What do you get when you mix a 1920’s cult, a couple of interior designers, the Pacific Northwest, a small fortune in gold, and a Kodiak bear?
You get this clever and adventurous “what if” story weaving real-life historical characters with the imagination of Ted Mulcahay–Bearied Treasure.
In this light-hearted parody of the membership of a private golf club, located in Bellevue, Washington, they stumble upon a gruesome murder. The incident is only the beginning of a seemingly unrelated sequence of events so heinous that it eventually attracts national attention.
With their recent move to South Whidbey Island, only the O’Malley’s would stumble upon drug smugglers, embezzlers, and murderers amongst the retirees. The quirky, pastoral island, reachable by a less than speedy ferry from Mukilteo or the narrow, deteriorating Deception Pass bridge, is no match for the wicked men about to visit.
Somehow, someway the O’Malleys have found themselves in the thick of things once again. On peaceful, bucolic Whidbey Island, they become entangled in a corporate plot to stifle a paradigm-shattering discovery, one that promises to upend conventional thinking, topple markets, and create an entirely new industry.
A spur-of-the-moment road trip by the O’Malleys thrusts them into the middle of familial murder and chaos. From the vineyards of Walla Walla to the pastoral quietude of Whidbey Island, the husband-and-wife team ends up defending their friends against a pair of unlikely but lethal adversaries. Along with a familiar cast of characters, the lighthearted caper manages to bring together a missing foot, an award-winning cabernet, and a vengeance-seeking duo into another improbable and humorous adventure.
Whidbey Island is invaded by a psychopath who wants to poison the population. The O'Malleys and friends join forces to stop him. With unpredictable twists and turns, the challenge of apprehending the evildoer is thwarted by the storm of the century. But the amateur sleuths are determined to catch the villain before it's too late.
Deputy Roger Wilkie's curiosity about Lone Lake Road's mysteries leads to a startling discovery: a peculiar recluse and a tangled web of kidnapping, witchcraft, and a journey into the murky past of early settlers.
