The latest (as of mid-2007) in Margaret Maron's enjoyable Deborah Knotts series. Now married, Deborah and Dwight face several challenges, including a murder Dwight must investigate in their small North Carolina town. While involved in that investigation, the pair find out that Dwight's ex-wife, Jonna (mother of his young son Cal) has gone missing. Dwight -- and eventually Deborah -- must travel to his ex-wife's hometown to search for Jonna, and soon, Cal as well. Very enjoyable and suspenseful novel. Dwight Bryant recieves a call from his 8 year old son Cal and when he traveks ti hus home in Shaysville, Virginia Dwight discovers that Cal's mom is missing. Dwight's new wife Deborah Knott travels up to help when Cal also disappears. Meanwhile Dwights team in North Carolina is investigating the shooting of J.D. Rouse who was hot while driving. A suspensful read that kept me going wanting to know what had happened to Cal. I'm not sure I'd want to be driving on the roads in the fictional Colleton County of Deborah Knott. People tend to get shot on the roads while in their cars. That's how this book starts too. But, even though that's how the novel stars, the shooting is not the main mystery in the book. That is what's happened to Joanna, Dwight's ex-wife and their son Cal. It's quite a chase around Joanna's hometown and Dwight and then, of course, Deb search for them. And interwoven is even more family history. This time Joanna's family, as well as Deb's thoughts on her impending step-motherhood. I really liked how Maron wrote Cal. She seemed to write him with the right combination of youth and grownup-ness. On the other hand I was a little bummed that there were fewer court scenes, but, this book was about Dwight and Cal mostly, and Deb was more like a supporting character. And as long as it was only this novel and the series won't turn into the Dwight and Cal show, this was a great novel that definitely moved the characters' stories forward. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
