We do get more of Ford’s mysterious background filled in, but the story is about a disappeared woman, the ex-wife of a former friend Doc would die for, and nothing much about finding her... beyond speculating, and speculating, and then speculating some more. What solid, factual information there is available, Doc doesn't spend any time running down because all of his time is wasted on speculation and figuring. WTH.
To sum up: 90% of the book is Ford talking about himself, 10% (at most) is him actually trying to do anything useful but the results are largely idiotic and nothing remotely what you'd call successful, and then he gets everyone of any importance is killed. This was Randy Wayne White’s idea of a good story...???
I should add that the 20-30 characters in this story are well-created, finely crafted beings and personalities. Maybe that was for future use in future books, but in this novel was just a lot of words that didn't lend themselves to this story; all of that didn't seem necessary. ( )
