Who Shot Bucky?

In Who Shot Bucky? author Joseph A. Szewc delivers a wallop of a scientific mystery. With edge-of-your-seat precision, he tells the story of Tony Shoemaker, a retired Air Force officer, spy, college professor, and, with his German wife, innkeeper on the Oregon coast. Life floats along just fine until a frequent visitor, Bucky the deer, is shot and impaled by an arrow. What springs from that slaying is a fascinating and highly inventive tale of human cloning and bio-laboratories that takes the reader from Laos to Chile, Germany to a sleepy Oregon town. In this gripping story, few are who they appear to be, but how to separate the good guys from the bad? In a story told with equal parts murder, scientific atrocities, and individual acts of heroism, this novel falls into the you-can't-put-it-down category. A very good read indeed.
