The
Drifter Detective: A Jack Laramie Beat by Garnett Elliott
is the latest release from Beat To A Pulp and is a very good one. The striking
and well done cover only hints at the powerful tale inside as the read takes
readers to West Texas and the world of private investigator Jack Laramie. After
a clash with a local ranch hand as he closes a case, Jack is happy to get back
in his Desoto and head out of Cross Plains, Texas. He doesn’t make it very far
down the road before mechanical issues cause him to have to find a garage. His
quest for a place to drink and a bed for the night in Clyde, Texas will create
new problems in unexpected ways.
Grandson of the legendary US Marshall, Cash Laramie,
Jack is a tough WWII vet who has seen the worst the world has to offer. These
days he lives out of an empty horse trailer attached to his old Desoto and does
the best he can to survive. This novelette of approximately 9k words is a hard
hitting read that is excellent and very much well worth your time.
