4.0 out of 5 stars Too Little Love and Too Much Greed Can Lead to Tragedy, January 8, 2011
By 
I liked What of Terry Conniston? (1971) by Brian Garfield (author of Death Wish). It's an easy/enjoyable read. And once the novel's villain splits for Mexico to see an ex-Nazi doctor turned plastic surgeon, about mid-novel, it's practically impossible to put down.

All hell breaks loose when the leader of a five-member rock group decides to kidnap the daughter of a wealthy Texas businessman. All the band's members, except for one, are a pretty despicable bunch of losers. The leader is reminiscent of the main villain in Jeffery Deaver's A Maiden Grave (1995) or Carter Wick's (Collin Wilcox's) Dark House, Dark Road (1981). The disfigured band member is reminiscent of the over-sexed villain in Deaver's Maiden Grave and the big, dumb villain in Robert Vaughan's Heart of Nashville (1975). If you can get over a few fortuitous coincidences: a horny, Rich Little wannabe; family strife cause by perceived lack of love; sudden, unexpected violence; death; greed; and a love willing to overlook practically everything, then this one's for you. And who said the author doesn't have a perverse sense of humor: Read the novel to see what happens south of the border to the sole female kidnapper and to the Texas businessman's ranch.
