Deep End: A Mystery

If you like the type of main character found in James Lee Burke novels (ex-Viet Nam, military, tough guy sort), I recommend this book. Good plot, pretty good character development and lots of mood found in the north coast of Florida environs. These guys that live in old mossy big mansions on the canals and waterways of Florida have got it made! They seem to have the money to spend plenty of time fishing and watching great flaming sunsets over the gulf... and they always have the time to help out a friend who is in trouble. It's what I would call a good "airport read"... You will probably have to search the used book stores for this one. His books are hard to find.
