Heard Proper: A Dutch Curridge Mystery

By Tim Bryant

An executed killer's car resurfaces in Fort Worth. A hidden map in a hearse points to a dead judge. And private investigator Dutch Curridge is about to learn how far a lie can travel once a whole town finds it useful.

Set in 1959 Texas, Heard Proper is a moody, intelligent mystery about rumor, memory, and the dangerous distance between truth and what people choose to believe. As Dutch follows a trail of confessions, missing papers, and buried loyalties, he finds himself caught between the official story and the real one-and someone is still invested in making sure those two things never meet.
