Cast In Stone

Written by G.M. Ford

Narrated by Patrick Lawlor

Leo’s boyhood hero, Henry “Heck” Sundstrom was larger than life. Lately, however Heck’s life has been spiraling out of control. First the honeymoon boating accident that killed Heck’s son and new daughter-in- law, Allison. And now the big man himself was dying—struck down by delivery truck in a seedy section of Seattle. As he starts to investigate, Leo begins to wonder if Allison went down with the ship. And whether, with the aid of his, aging legmen, “the Boys,” he can prove they’re on the trail of a “black widow” who may be less “late” and more lethal than anyone ever suspected.

This is the second in the Leo Waterman series - Seattle mystery solver. Love the story, love the characters, love the setting and the author's cute, too. Can't wait for Number 3. (reviewed in 1996)

Waterman was planning to take some time off and go fishing but then the phone rings, throwing into the problems of old friends and then searching through a vague and twisted past to find out if the case is about a missing person or a murderer. The thing I liked best was that there was lots of comedy, but the actual murders and other crimes weren't trivialized.

When I started this book I didn't think I was going to be very interested in it. But as I read, I found myself being drawn into the story. As a native of Washington, I enjoyed reading about places I'm familiar with. Not bad.

Very funny in parts. I didn't keep the characters straight - maybe my fault.
