Holes in My Armor - Walter Rice - Bog

A truck cuts off Clay Sutler on his Seattle commute, but his complaint only gets him mixed up with Tara and her brilliant, scheming mind. Clay has a lot in common with Tara, mainly Montana, where his parents died too early and where he never wants to go back. But his hometown is exactly where Tara wants him to go and solve her cousin's cold case murder. Now Tara even makes him a suspect in a police database while she chips away at his resistance. Clay does his best to sidestep Tara's maneuvers, seductive and otherwise, but he can't keep his girlfriend Francie out of Tara's grasp. While he fights for his own stability and leans on a wise inner voice named Doc, questions about Tara's sanity threaten to undercut his own fragile progress. Then, one fateful weekend, Tara prevails and the killer emerges in Clay's Montana town. In a swirl of a secret liaison, family tragedies and cracked football dreams, Clay puts it all together and orchestrates justice in the town he tried to leave behind.
