William Diehl
OMNIBUS

Hooligans
Sharky's machine 

Here Diehl tears into one of his pet peeves: real estate developers who ravage the land for profit. He has seen the devastation of their work on his own beloved St. Simons Island, Georgia. It is the subject that always brings out his soap box and he does it mighty justice in HOOLIGANS.

Jake Kilmer, of the Federal Racket Squad, is shocked when he returns to Dunetown after a 20-year absence. Here, "..a dark, romantic two-lane blacktop, an archway of magnolias dripping with Spanish moss, that meandered from Duneway to the sea..." has become "...a six-lane highway that slashed between an infinity of garish streetlights like a scar." The Norman Rockwell painting is now a Christo travesty in neon.

To worsen the pot, someone is diligently engaged in offing the local Mob. Then there's Kilmer's arch enemy, Turk Nance, and Kilmer's obsession with the woman he had loved and lost. As the story advances, interspersed with portions of a soldier's diary of Nam war experiences, tension mounts and the situation becomes ever more mysterious and dangerous.

If you've read any of William Diehl's books you know you've found another winner. Vivid prose and spirited characters intent on their mission pulls the reader into a riveting story that moves and twists faster than lightning between storm clouds. Saddle up a Diehl book and hang on -- you're in for the ride of your life.
