Amateur detectives, Covey Jencks and JayJay Qualls, are drawn into a triple murder on the campus of Baker College in West Waverly in the Texas Hill Country. Both end up taking positions at the college: Covey as an adjunct instructor and JayJay as a visiting actor. 


Initially they believe that money is the motive for the murders, but over time they learn that the college is a cauldron of political and social intrigue. The college’s new president and his beautiful wife, various staff members, a prominent trustee, and parties not associated with the college have the motives, opportunities, and wacky agendas that might implicate them in the murders. It turns out that a white nationalist group may be using a college house for its nefarious activities, but are they more talk than action? 
 

The West Waverly police are little to no help in the investigation, and Covey himself has to depart the college to deal with his father’s death. JayJay takes over and makes a critical breakthrough. Upon Covey’s return, the couple must rely on deception, a bit of luck, and martial arts skills to solve the crimes and to try to prevent a high-profile assassination.

Shelton Williams’s
Favorite Orbison Songs
for Writing About Texas

 

When I write about Odessa in particular, or Texas in general, I have a Roy Orbison tape playing in my head. Roy was from Wink, Texas, and he married a girl (literally a sixteen-year-old girl) from Odessa. I knew him personally. His music comes from West Texas. His songs speak of loneliness, heartbreak, dreams, and the power of love. He inspired the Beatles and befriended them. He moved to New York, added strings and an orchestra to his songs, and became a cult figure. He stayed nice; he stayed decent; and he was always a West Texan.

 

If you only know Oh, Pretty WomanCrying, or Only the Lonely, you may appreciate Roy. But if you also know In DreamsI Drove All NightMean Woman Blues, and Life Fades Away, you are in for a further education. You may also want to look for his other songs as well, but be prepared. His Bridge Over Troubled Waters is that song’s best version and it is as relevant politically as it is romantically.
