Alle Exemplare der Ausgabe mit dieser ISBN anzeigen:"Jack McMorrow gets into some vicious fights in Straw Man, Gerry Boyle s new mystery in his rugged series set in the wilds of Maine. Take the bone-crunching brawl that Jack and his military-trained friends, Clair and Louis, get into when they run across four big guys with chain saws poaching hardwood trees on an old woman s land. The repercussions of that little scuffle not only complicate the onetime newspaper reporter s freelance assignment on private gun sales in Maine, but also endanger his family. The most hurtful fights, though, are those clenched-teeth-exchanges with his wife, Roxanne, over an elementary-school project on pacifism that has her working closely with the soft-handed gentleman goat farmer who owns Heaven Sent Farm. ( Must be cashmere goats, Jack notes.) The difficulties facing peaceful people who must live in a violent world are revisited when Jack tries to write a story on a community of Old Order Mennonites. But, as Clair says when he hands Jack a Glock with an extra clip and two boxes of ammo: I m all for pacifism. . . . But I m not gonna die for it. "--The New York Times Book Review (05/16/2016)"
