Over the past year or so Ive become a big fan of the work of Charles Boeckman and even published a volume of hisWestern pulp stories (which if youre a Western fan and havent read it yet, you should because theyre really good). Hes still a working novelist in his nineties and turning out top-notch work. His latest mystery novel is SNATCHED!, published by Pro Se Press, and its the sort of suspenseful, fast-moving yarn Ive come to expect from Boeckman. Set on the Texas Gulf Coast, SNATCHED! is a classic private eye novel about detectives Kate McHaney and Craig Dawson, formerly married, now divorced, but still business partners. Theyre hired to find the kidnapped daughter of the mayor of the town where they live, a case that leads to multiple murders, shootouts (like many a Western hero, Craig Dawson is a two-gun man and doesnt hesitate to start blazing away, as that fine cover demonstrates), organized crime, and even an ambush by a World War I bi-plane. This is a thoroughly entertaining novel that moves very swiftly through its complex plot. Kate and Craig are likable protagonists, and Boeckman does a fine job with the refreshingly different setting. If youre a mystery fan, this one is well worth reading.
