Publisher Description

Oklahoma lieutenant-governor One-Eyed Mack heads to France in pursuit of his chum, Luther Wallace, speaker of the Oklahoma House of Representatives, who has disappeared, except for a message saying he won't return until he's ready.

Having located Luther but failed to convince him to return, Mack comes back to another mystery: why did a bus driver intentionally go over a bridge, killing himself and his passengers? He also does battle with Oklahoma governor Buffalo Joe Hayman, who wants to build two two-lane turnpikes.

Peopled with evocative characters, this original novel is filled with yarns about country music, joggers, funerals, venereal disease, lawyers, and much more.

"I really enjoyed this book. Heartwarming read about a psychologist in her late 30s who loses her husband suddenly, then tries to recover and rebuild. A dog, a retired minister, an old lady, and an anorexic teen girl help her in the healing process. A fast read, very engaging. Sheehan, also a psychologist, definitely has a grip on human nature, although the three chapters written from the dog's POV were the best."

    " Best thing I've read in a while and I guarantee you'll like all the characters. It's a solid plot woven around grief and trust and healing...and an extraordinary dog! "

    " This was a quick read---I had to put off reading for 2 weeks , but I picked it back up where I left off without having to reread. It's a story about loss, grieving and finding oneself again, experienced by both humans and animals. Having been a Mainer for 7 years, living near Portland, It brought back good memories for me, especially of my trips to Peaks Island where the story is centered. "

    " I couldn't put this book down. I started it last night and then finished it this morning...it was a pretty easy read and had a good amount of mystery which I wasn't expecting. I liked the narrative switched between characters and for a few chapters, even the dog. (Very well done though, not cheesy at all.) The cover (of this version) doesn't really apply to the story, so don't judge a book by it's cover. :) "

    " Book starts out sad as Rocky, a psyschologist loses her 42 year old husband, but turns a lot warmer as she leaves Mass. and goes to an island off Maine and reinvents her life as an Animal Control Warden. This book is definitely for animal lovers. "

    " Really liked this book, about a wife dealing with her husband's death and starting over. Sad and sweet, shouldn't have read it when my husband was out of town. Would have liked it more if I were a dog person--so not a dog person--but if you love dogs, especially labs (Rebecca) this book is for you. "

    " Once I got past the bizarre and unbelievable method the main character chooses to dispose of her beloved husband's ashes, I really did enjoy this book. The author's insight into the human-dog relationship was beautifully rendered and the ending was very satisfying. "
