I read "Tall Man In Raybans" some time back and didn't follow up with reading the Ron Ketchum series where he was introduced. I have no idea how I missed that. I read Nailed then Defiled and now I'm going to have to wait for the next in the series to come out.Tall Wolf, is so cool, and smart. I loved the interplay of dialog between him and FBI agent Benjamin. Usually Feds are the jerks in small town police procedurals. And in Nailed the "feeb" was a super jerk. But here they are co-operative and entertaining.Ron Ketchum's father Walt is a major character here and his redemption is lovely to behold. The plot revolves around eco-terrorism, dirty bombs, gold nuggets the size of tree fruit and a helluva conspiracy.I figured out the bad guy early, but it was a treat to follow the plot to its conclusion. I know now why the intro to "Nailed" involved a Mitchner-esque run down of the the town history with placer gold because the pay off was in the second novel.I hope Flynn brings us more of Ketchum and Tall Wolf, either together or in books of their own. I'll be waiting.
