Mystery
"A few months ago in Ranchero, Rick Gavin's much-acclaimed
Delta noir novel, Nick Reid and his compadre Desmond
liberated some money from a nasty meth dealer, and now they
need to launder it. After lending out a couple thousand
dollars here and there, with hopes of getting a small
return, all kinds of "investment opportunities" are coming
out of the woodwork, and one of them has trouble written all
over it. The brother of Desmond's ex-wife wants a small sum
to set up a scheme involving a trailer full of stolen tires.
Which sets off all kinds of alarm bells for Nick, but
Shawnica insists that Nick and Desmond help her brother out.
In the next few days, they're set upon by a ninja schoolgirl
assassin and a couple of Delta gangsters, and soon all
thoughts of recouping their investment go out the window.
They'll settle for just staying alive. The twists and turns
and the dry wit that made Ranchero a delight are all on full
display once again in Beluga, Rick Gavin's latest. "--
