Produktbeschreibung
In a dark valley in the Arkansas Ozarks there is a world all to its own. In the woods just north of Little Sugar Creek, a mother and daughter have gone missing. Their husband and father, a real estate mogul from Branson who is willing to spare no expense to bring his family home, calls on an old friend to find them: detective Booger McClain. In the weeks that follow, McClain and his wife Rose uncover much of what is hidden at Shadow Valley. The picture that emerges from the fog is one of greed, sex, drugs, true love, pain, helplessness, pride, and the ever-present desire among friends and enemies to survive and rise above the low ground. Shadow Valley is the fifth book in Alan Brown's Booger McClain detective series and the third authored by both Alan and his son, former journalist Brian Brown. This installment is a fully fictional mystery that weaves in real details of the fast-growing Northwest Arkansas area with vibrant descriptions of the broader Ozarks to elevate the thrilling narrative. The result is a novel that will have readers on the edge of their seats and deeply immersed in a place they'll find close to home -- wherever they are from.
Autorenporträt
Alan Brown was born and educated in Tunbridge Wells, Kent. At the age of two he and his mother escaped when a German flying bomb crashed into their road exploding, flattening all but three properties. He has worked for local newspapers in Kent, then moved up to management, covering the country, and setting up promotions for two London companies. He and his wife Barbara have run three successful businesses of their own, and also managed pubs for Whitbread. He was then retired for several years, moving from the village in North Devon, where he completed his first book, The Houmits of Seynorgue, to a smaller residence in a delightful village a few miles down the road. Escape to Seynorgue came after many requests, eight years after book one.
