Swan Peak
By James Lee Burke
Mystery (2008)
Dave and Clete are taking a break from the steamy Gulf Coast, spending the summer in Montana with plans to fish and relax. But crime major crime finds them.
As with all Burke's books, this is a complex tale of old scores to settle, corruption and danger. Our heroes are unconventional and the local authorities and FBI are not happy about their involvement.
Burke's characters are multi-layered and often inept at dealing with confusing realities. This is another gritty tale of good and evil by a master storyteller.

Do you think Republican Sam Brownback will be the next governor of Kansas?
I think Brownback is a sure thing, unless something changes drastically.
