{"product_id":"dear-durwood-third-chance-enterprises","title":"Dear Durwood (Third Chance Enterprises)","description":"A KIRKUS REVIEWS' BEST 100 BOOK OF 2020.\n\nMeet Durwood Oak Jones, the man readers are calling, \"a literary Jack Reacher.\"\n\nBook two in the epic Third Chance Enterprises series, Dear Durwood is a standalone mystery pitting uncompromising principle against big city greed.\n\nDurwood Oak Jones is a man of few indulgences. One he does allow is a standing ad in Soldier of Fortune magazine soliciting “injustices in need of attention.”\n\nThis month’s bundle of letters includes one from Carol Bridges, mayor of the dusty, blue-collar town of Chickasaw, Texas. For nearly a century, Chickasaw has relied on the jobs and goodwill of Hogan Consolidated, a family-run manufacturer of industrial parts. Now East Coast lawyers and investment bankers have taken aim at the company. The citizens of Chickasaw fear it may be acquired or bankrupted, leading to massive layoffs — effectively destroying the town.\n\nDurwood and his trusty bluetick coonhound, Sue-Ann, fly to Texas to see what can be done. They find a young CEO born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Factory workers with hammers. A good woman, Carol Bridges, who knows her town is being cheated but can’t get to the bottom of how. And lawyers.\n\nDirty, good-for-nothing lawyers.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1732255296\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1732255296.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Bond, Jeff\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
