Dark Strides

Dark Strides Praise for Dark Strides... "This novel gives you top flight dialogue and details. I think the prose is impeccable-also the characterizations. In fact, I've never read stronger prose. Dark Strides is intriguing. It is touching. This novel could have been arcane, but no, it includes you. How can you not feel ALIVE as Clifford's snare drum awakens the Millennial musicians? I will read this novel again. I was engaged all the way through it-in no small measure because Dark Strides contains plenty of humor, mostly in the dialogue, which, again, is top flight." - Michael O'Rourke, Author of Paul Bunyan Lives! and Other Tales From The Natural World. In the sleepy Loess Hills of Western Iowa, Keith Larsen is 60 and still pursuing the old ideal, Peace Through Music. So he records daily with his team. Cousin Clifford is a powerful drummer with huge problems understanding monogamy. Jane Crawford, award-winning vocalist, plays boogie piano and enjoys the respect here. After a violent death at the town's motel, Sheriff Rhonda Smith develops her homicide investigation. When a rock band arrives for coaching at the recording studio, the producers begin to teach the young people-directly across a parking lot from the crime scene. An injured Smith won't drop her case, and finally one piece of powerful evidence surfaces. Can Smith achieve justice? Can the perfect, healing album be produced at the studio?
