Mike Bove

Willowtree is a murder mystery and Mike Bove's first book. Hopefully, it will be the first in a series featuring author Mike Bove's alter ego Bruce DelReno, both retired postal workers and ardent golfers.

Bruce, as a character, seems like a mix of Larry David and Lew Archer. He just keeps pushing on, especially when not wanted, and unwinds the sins of the past that keep interfering with the present.

Bruce surrounds himself with an interesting group of supporting players that will allow author Mike Bove to make Willowtree the Cabot Cove of Arizona.… (plus d'informations)

This is the first volume in what I hope will be one of many involving the characters of Willowtree. The writing has a good flow to it, the characters are believable and even better, likeable. The main character, a wannabe detective, or else just someone who is bored and wants some excitement (lol), is Bruce DelReno. A lot of the book is about golf, or I should say involves golf. Not being a golf lover myself I thought I wouldn't really take to this book but I was in for a pleasant surprise. Mr. Bove made it very easy to understand which shows the makings of a truly good author. He draws the reader into not onlt the mystery but the characters and their lives. A great read indeed!… (plus d'informations)
