Customer Reviews

A Wonderful Surprise!

This book was read with great anticipation on two counts: Thom is a former highschool classmate of mine that I respected and admired; and the reviews indicated that the story took place in Sea Ranch and Gualala in Northern California. Having spent countless weekends up at Sea Ranch over the years, his descriptions of the locale, citizens and lifestyles were vividly brought to life and I found myself laughing out loud as I read my own opinions popping off the page. Thom has always been a gifted writer, as this book clearly demonstrates. His characters come alive, and I felt as though I had met all of them at one time or another. I hope to have the pleasure of reading more of his work.

A Page Turner!

I seldom read mysteries and care little for fishing. Nonetheless, this book, written in a deceptively simple style, was a real "page turner" for me. It was just the right length for a good read in a manageable time period and had just the right blend of tongue in check humor, intrigue and romance. Dawn Nelson Walnut Creek, CA

PERFECT GIFT FOR THAT FLY-FISHING GUY IN YOUR LIFE!!!

i know absolutely nothing about fly fishing nor did i think i even cared to find out about it but in reading this charming little foray into the subject set in wonderous mendocino made me think differently.....i loved this story....the quirky characters were marvelous...having spent much time staying, dining and stomping the grounds of st. orres....aka st. horace....this was such a treat...didn't like the ending but i guess it's ok...still enjoyed it and will definitely pass the word on this little literary secret....how come no one else has read/reviewed this book??? it was fun...hope to read more from thom, a neighbor just down the road from me!!!
