Pertany a aquestes sèriesBrock Callahan (6)
Brock Callahan doesn't have many fans left from his glory days on the gridiron. As a matter of fact, Warren Temple Lund III may be the last one. So how can Callahan refuse his request for help? It doesn't matter that Warren is not quite twelve with assets totaling thirty-two dollars. Callahan may have a soft spot for kids, but when he sets out to find his client's missing father, things get nasty indeed. Nobody - not the local police, the rich mother, nor her live-in-love - wants Callahan mixing in. And if he doesn't watch his step, Callahan may find himself in a county morgue with a tag tied to his big toe . . . No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

Here, the clever bit is that Brock's client is a teenage boy who idolized Brock and wants him to find his missing father. Much of the action takes place in Santa Barbara's thinly disguised Montecito district which boasts old money wealth even the Kardashians couldn't match. Of course, finding a missing dad also involves a twisted murder, dive bars, and plenty of distrust from anyone Callahan deals with in a racially and economically divided town where he is a complete outsider.
I found it to be a smoothly written and enjoyable read, but not that pulpy or hardboiled. A good read, but nothing to rave about. ( )
