Bone Dry (Blanco County Mysteries) - Plot & Excerpts
It was deer season, after all, and he was determined to get back to his regular routine. He would patrol for several hours, then call Austin to see if Richard Fanick, the lab technician, had anything for him. Marlin made a large loop around the county, stopping at hunting camps and deer leases along the way. He cruised north on Highway 281 to Round Mountain, west on 962, south through Sandy, and on down to Blanco. Then northeast through Henly and up to Pedernales Reservoir. He wanted to check in with Bobby Garza to see if there had been any progress made with Jack Corey, but he decided to swing by his house first and make a call. Almost eight o’clock. Maybe Fanick would be in his office by now. Back at home, Marlin poured himself a to-go mug of coffee and tried calling Fanick. He got routed into voice mail and left a message. It was the weekend—Fanick might not even go into his office today, despite Marlin’s pleadings for a quick turnaround. All he could do was hope. He stepped outside and saw Inga Mueller’s yellow Volvo bouncing up the driveway.
