Character, plot pacing all satisfactory, nice sense of place ( ) This is evidently the 3rd book in a series about a retired Texas Ranger. Some very funny down-home-isms that I got a good chuckle over. The story was pretty complicated, and to tell the truth, I'm not absolutely sure "who-dunnit". I know who covered it up, but who actually did the deed is not perfectly clear. I'm happy to check out other books in the series, however. A pretty good mystery with some nice rural Texas color (perhaps a little bit too much at times—some of the characters seem a little too hickey). Ex-Texas Ranger Jeremiah Spur is looking for the murderer of a local cat-fish house owner and inventor while dealing with a sick wife. Enjoyable with a good main character. no reviews | add a review
Belongs to SeriesJeremiah Spur (Book 3)
Sylvester Bradshaw owns the Bouree restaurant, home of the best catfish within a hundred miles of Brenham, Texas. Besides being known for his cooking and for being one of the town's nastiest residents, he also happens to have invented a machine that several venture capitalists and one former NFL star would like to invest in at almost any cost. But Bradshaw---stubborn and miserly---cannot be enticed. Nobody gets a look and nobody gets to know how the device works, not even his family. When the restaurant is ransacked and he goes missing, the only person willing to take his disappearance seriously is Jeremiah Spur. The retired Texas Ranger and rancher is a dedicated customer, if not a friend, which makes him the only man on whom the Bradshaws can pin their hopes. No library descriptions found. |
