The secret dread of joggers isn't blisters or shin splints. It's finding a dead body. In BIG D DEAD, the discovery of a severed human head launches a tale of greed, scandal, political corruption, child abuse and murder. It is told from the viewpoints of a young woman whose battle with cerebral palsy drives her forward in a way normal people can't understand; a cloistered monk whose sense of true north falters, but never fails; and a battle-weary homicide detective.BIG D DEAD is set in the early 1990s when the Texas Savings & Loan collapse staged a dress rehearsal for the financial crash of 2008. Federal receivers were desperate for cash and organized crime had venture capital on offer. The wise guys met the good old boys.
