Touch of the Sun — John C. Boland

"One of the most surreal, savage and compelling crime novels I've ever read . . . wholly original in story and so witty and elegant and brutal by turns you just don't want to let go of it."--Ed Gorman A year after the death of his wife, Clete Dowski has sought refuge from his loss in a quiet Florida trailer park. Heron Isle, on the Gulf coast, isn't where he expected to end up, riding a three-wheeler to the local pharmacy and the community pool, killing afternoons with gossip and beer. And he hasn't begun to wonder who owns the place . . . or how they deal with nosy old men.
