Streeter is a big bully of a detective/bounty hunter in Denver, Colorado. This story introduces him and his idiosyncrasies. He shares many of the characteristics of Doolittle's Tom Bethany. The story itself wasn't my favorite but I think this Streeter guy has some better stories in his future and I plan to keep an eye out for his adventures.

Action, plus well drawn characters

A good story, well developed characters and a lot action - what is not to like? I'll be reading the rest of Stone's Streeter novels.

I read more "lone detective" books than is probably good for me and this Streeter guy does not excite my interest. He has none of the classiness of my favorite gumshoes and I find it hard to write an enthusiastic review.

This is the first Streeter thriller and Mr. Stone has included lots of stage-setting talk and detail that could really have been left out. Wordiness is my main criticism, I guess.

Other Streeter thrillers are better than this one. "A Long Reach" is too wordy; the characters talk and talk and talk. The three-stranded plot is overly complex, unpleasant and not believable. I could not finish it.

I received a review copy of "A Long Reach: A Streeter Thriller" by Michael Stone (Brash) through NetGalley.com. It was originally published in 1997 by Viking under the same title.
