More DescriptionAnyone who cut some of their genre eyeteeth on the excellent books about the fishing, hunting, and crime-solving (in that order of preference) Boston lawyer Brady Coyne will be delighted to hear that William G. Tapply has brought him back for another mystery that combines expert entertainment with some serious social issues. Sharing a house in Maine with his "virtual spouse," writer Alexandria Shaw, Coyne gives a tough, independent African American woman named Charlotte Gillespie a lift and an offer of help finding the person who poisoned her dog. When Charlotte disappears and red swastikas are painted on her house and on Coyne's car, he--and we--know that something nasty is going on. The complicated plot involves a connection to the KKK and a bunch of deer-hunting, conniving computer scientists, and along the way Coyne gets to fish in several heartbreakingly beautiful locations. Other Coyne books include the equally satisfying Close to the Bone. --Dick Adler
