It’s a realistic, painful portrait of a man deeply in trouble. Only by flashes of his past and glimpses into bits of his relationships with those outside of work does the reader realize Shane’s floundering there too. But Bauer’s created a more damaged man then evidenced on the outside. He carries the years of his “failures” heavily. Shane Carson is a small town’s native son who’s never lived up to its and his family’s huge expectations for him. It’s our initial introduction to the murder victims and one of the main characters. It’s starts with a terrifying find of a body dump by Deputy Shane Carson out in the desert wilds of Big Bend country Texas. All throughout the unforgettable location of Big Bend Texas. Jam-packed with so many of my favorite tropes, it’s a fast paced murder mystery and a second chance at a revived passionate relationship as two men race to find a killer. Never Stay Gone is the author’s first story in his new Big Bend Texas Rangers series and it’s great. Along with folding in a wonderful romance to boot. Ones that might include such elements as government agencies and military spies, secret missions, and any number of inside sub terrorist organizations to deal with. I’ve been so busy with fantasy and contemporary romances that I’ve neglected one really great action suspense author.
