What We're Reading: Edward


Double-Jack Murders: a Sheriff Bo Tully Mystery
by Patrick F. McManus
Since the late 1980s many patrons have searched for non-fiction books by Patrick McManus. His Grasshopper Trap and Night the Bear Ate Goombaw were both on the New York Times Bestseller List. I was surprised to see that he was now writing mysteries; so I had to read one. This is the third Sheriff Bo Tully mystery after Blight Way (2005) and Avalanche (2007). In this latest adventure Bo is asked to solve the seventy-five year old disappearance of a gold miner and his helper. At the same time Bo is being shot at by Kincaid. Bo sent Kincaid to prison. Kincaid has escaped and has sworn to kill Bo. With his father and Deputy Dave, Bo goes off to find the gold mine and the missing miners. Bo also hopes to lure Kincaid into a trap. Bo always gets his man. But this time it happens an unexpected way. But it is the Blight way!
