I've seen Sean's short fiction in PWG and spotted his title
from UglyTown. There's been some discussion of his work
recently on the list.
This is the first novel of his I've read. Wow. An impressive,
first-rate read. His characterization (including a romance)
and setting (rural Nebraska) are dead on. The title concerns
an ex-reporter from Chicago returning home to run his late
grandfather's canoe/outdoor expedition camp. Our hero runs
into local nasties including a vicious deputy sheriff. The
pacing is smart and the dialogue is seamless. The narrative
stays on course and doesn't drift. IMHO, one of the best
books I've read this year.
