The Angry Buddhist

Seth Greenland

4.9/5 (16399 ratings)

Description:In a California desert-scape of Palm Springs, Desert Hot Springs, Borrego Springs and surrounding, albeit less-notable communities, drama is brewing in the midst of a political election. While incumbent Randall Duke assembles his faithful troops, newcomer Mary Swain, a comely beauty waving a decidedly conservative political banner, has captured the attention of a significant base of supporters, one of her admirers the hard-bitten Chief Harding Marvin, of Desert Hot Springs. Of course, public personas are far removed from the real life encounters in these desert enclaves, from extra-marital affairs to blackmail and murder, as behind-the-scenes behavior threatens to spill into public view. A messy double murder leads investigators to local personalities as the sloppy crimes yields more than one bedroom scandal and potential murder suspect.Greenland writes like a desert-bleached Tom Wolfe, his raft of colorful characters flawed and often unlikable, from Randall Duke to the politico's ex-cop brother, Jimmy, and ex-con brother Dale, Jimmy clearly the most salvageable of the three, newly-released Dale relegated to a wheelchair that hardly impedes his criminal predilections. Then there are the ladies, Randall's indiscreet wife, Kendra, Marvin's wife Vonda Jean and the remarkably indiscriminate murder victim, Nadine Never. Small time crook Odin Brick and Randall's campaign manager, Maxon Brae, fill out the roster, along with Jimmy Duke's online Buddhist counselor and the desert Machiavelli, a blogger who reveals everyone's dirty little secrets. Like the prodigious Mr. Wolfe, Greenland is sometimes bitingly clever and sometimes a little too smug. One thing for sure: where there's wealth and power, there's greed and temptation.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
