Work detailsKnown Dead by Donald Harstad (1999)
None. A little unrealistic, but hugely appealing from the standpoint of portraying a mid-country sheriff, and the detailed shoot-out scenes. ( )Deputy Sheriff Carl Houseman is part of a team conducting surveillance on a marajuana patch at a state park. It should have been routine but something goes terribly wrong. Officer Bill Kellerman of the narcotics division and a doper are killed. At first it was thought that they killed each other but when this was not the case, Houseman was assigned to a task force to find the killers. Investigators interview farmers in the area of the crime scene and serve papers on a farmer named Stritch who heads a militia group. He has land posted saying he would shoot uninvited officers. He is heavily in debt and thinks the police are coming to evict him. Many plot twists tied nicely together by Harstad. This is a fun read. no reviews | add a review
