This review is from: Dark Streaks and Empty Places (Mass Market Paperback)
Macomber Beechum is a Texas millionaire. Dan Roman has bills to pay. Beechum's ranch house is not opulent. Roman is a private detective, former police officer. The problem presented is a missing granddaughter. Her husband contends she went to East Texas with an old boyfriend to visit. She runs the family business. Her father, a twin, committed suicide under mysterious circumstances. Sandra Conrad is subsequently a suspect in the death of her husband Peter when his body is found stuffed down an old well. At this point her sisters, Mercy and Hope Beechum, hire Roman to continue the search for her. Roman has shadowed her travels and believes that she is alive. The dispute the Beechums are having concerns timber rights. Perhaps the Beechums are poor in spirit. Roman runs into some quick draw artists, perfecting their gun drawing skills for years in a haze of nostalgia for the days of the Texas Rangers. The story is more complex than the boredom of small town life and is reasonably satisfying. |
