Description de l’éditeur
Orwell Brennan, Dockerty’s chief of police, is partial to classic Motown, autumn sunrises, and most kinds of pie. He dislikes ceremony, squabbling with the Mayor, and being told to stay clear of matters that don’t concern him. A man found in a tree shot dead by an arrow is in the jurisdiction of Metro Homicide. Brennan would be happy to mind his own business — if only the pat solution he had been handed made sense. But there are far too many unanswered questions for the Chief to care whose toes get stepped on as he uncovers what really happened. The forests around Dockerty hide many secrets. Some were never meant to be unearthed; one is still waiting to be buried.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This excellent first in a new series from Edgar-finalist Strange (Body Blows) pits a formidable Canadian police chief, Orwell Brennan, against clever criminals and rival law enforcement agencies. While trying to justify the existence of an independent police force for rural Dockerty, Ont., Brennan becomes involved in the case of a man found pinned to a tree by two arrows through the belly. The Toronto police soon conclude their investigation, but Brennan sharply observant despite his slovenly rube appearance patiently persists in unpeeling the mystery. Flashbacks reveal how an armored car robbery and a series of murders led to this crime and are still causing violent deaths. There's a lot going on under the surface of the little town and its scheming residents. Readers will appreciate the freshly drawn setting, especially the farms and woods outside Dockerty, as well as the vivid characters capable of startling revelations. ,
