Is Brian McDonnells Jeb Wills a different kind of private eye? Yes. Wills steps back from a fistfight. Wills gets along well with the Austin Police Department Homicide crew.

Wills calls Dallas to monitor an investment position, and calls Houston to check on his clients finances. Wills concentrates on tasks at hand -- such as recreational sex with his clients sons girlfriend.

Brian McDonnell steers an efficient and pragmatic course through events that began with a missing person case -- the disappearance of Wills clients son. There are drugs in the air: marijuana wherever Wills turns.

McDonnell writes with a dry wit that propels the story forward with recurrences of bemusement.

In the end, a missing person case is solved and so is a murder. Dont miss this chance to read a story unique as the up-to-date state of Texas.
