SCRATCHGRAVEL ROAD

Book ID/图书代码: 03880015B78031

English Summary/英文概要: The twisty follow-up to the Hillerman Prize-winning The Territory, featuring tough smalltown Texas police chief Josie Gray

It was pure luck that Josie Gray spotted Cassidy Harper’s car, abandoned on the side of the road. If she hadn’t, then she’d never have found Cassidy, lying nearly dead of heatstroke on the desert sand beside the body of a Mexican immigrant. But Cassidy can’t explain why she was out for a walk in the midday desert heat, let alone how she happened upon the corpse. And once Josie sees the ominous wounds on the man’s body, she knows she needs to find the answer fast, before her own life is in danger.

Tricia Fields’s The Territory marked her as talented new author of Southwestern crime, and Scratchgravel Road marks an inventive new mystery set in the unique world of smalltown Texas.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 本书紧接着希勒曼奖赢家《新界》,主要讲述了德克萨斯艰苦小城的警察局长乔西•格雷的故事。

非常幸运的是乔西•格雷发现了卡西迪•哈珀被遗弃在路边的车。如果没有,她就永远不会发现卡西迪躺在沙漠几乎中暑死掉,旁边是墨西哥移民的尸体。但是卡西迪无法解释为什么她在正午时在沙漠中散步,更不用说她和尸体有什么关系。乔西一看到男人尸体身上不祥的伤口,她知道她需要在自己的生命陷入危险前尽快找到答案。

特里西娅•菲尔兹的《新界》让她成为西南犯罪小说的富有才华的新作家,《公路疾驰》标志着发生在德克萨斯小镇上独一无二的世界中的独出心裁的新推理小说。(LNL)

Awards/获奖情况:迷人的……随着工业腐败和贪婪的更广泛主题的出现,菲尔兹巧妙地平衡了人物间错综复杂的亲密关系。野蛮的沙漠环境和惊心动魄的情节,菲尔兹的小说某种程度上介于西部地形和神秘领土之间。(密尔沃基日报-森第纳尔)

充满了不间断的行动……菲尔兹的第二部犯罪小说一定会大受怀念已故希勒曼的推理小说的粉丝和热爱当代西部小说的读者的喜爱。(图书馆杂志(评论))

菲尔兹获得托尼•希勒曼获奖的处女作:精心整合的遮眼法,一丝浪漫和对西德克萨斯天气完全正确的描述——闷热,为期一周的暴雨和毁灭地球的泥石流。(柯克斯评论)

对西部德克萨斯沙漠国家的描绘和精心绘制的角色都是值得关注的;乔西•格雷是一位值得跟随的主角。(书目)

菲尔兹在她的希勒曼奖获奖作品《新界》引人入胜的后续中发出了对工业危险警告和它们对普通人的广泛影响。……有洪水,泥石流,爆炸和潜在凶手的紧张高潮增加了悬念。(出版商周刊)

作者出生在夏威夷,住在印第安娜,但她作为一个荣誉的德州人赢得了一席之地。她的系列以警察局长乔西•格雷为主角赋予德克萨斯西部边境的小镇阿尔特密斯生命力。(星报)

一些读者可能认为他们早就知道了谜底,但他们应该继续阅读。菲尔兹在后面有双重惊喜。(达拉斯晨报)

《公路疾驰》是一个快节奏的,动感十足的很惊悚的推理小说……特里西娅•菲尔兹穿透了今天报纸的头条,创造了一个强烈的、快节奏的情节,并用栩栩如生的人物,包括好的和坏的充实了它。向那些渴望很多动作和戏剧化的推理迷们高度推荐此书,《公路疾驰》将给读者一个难忘的旅程。(编者评论)

Captivating. … Fields deftly balances the intriguing intimate relationships among her characters with the broader themes of industrial corruption and greed. With her wild desert settings and her thrilling plot, Fields’ novel is situated somewhere between Western terrain and mystery territory. (Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel)

Full of nonstop action … Fields’s second crime novel will be a sure hit with mystery fans who miss the late Hillerman and readers who love contemporary Westerns. (Library Journal (starred review))

As in Fields’ Tony Hillerman Prize-winning debut: carefully integrated red herrings, a tinge of romance and dead-on descriptions of West Texas weather--oppressive heat, weeklong downpours and earth-obliterating mudslides. (Kirkus Reviews)

Noteworthy for the delineation of the west Texas desert country and the well-drawn cast of characters; Josie Gray is a protagonist worth following. (Booklist)

Fields sounds a warning on industrial dangers and their wide-ranging effects on ordinary people in this engrossing follow-up to her Hillerman Prize-winning debut, The Territory. … A tense climax with a flood, mudslide, explosives, and a possible murderer add to the suspense. (Publishers Weekly)

This author was born in Hawaii and lives in Indiana, but she’s earned a spot as an honorary Texan. Her series featuring police chief Josie Gray vividly brings Artemis, a West Texas border town, to life. (Star-Telegram)

Some readers might think they have the mystery figured out early on, but they should keep reading. Fields has a couple surprises in store. (Dallas Morning News)

Scratchgravel Road is a fast-paced, action-packed mystery that is quite frightening. … Tricia Fields has ripped the headlines from today’s newspapers, created an intense, fast-paced plot, and fleshed it out with realistic characters, both good and bad. Highly recommended for mystery lovers who crave a lot of action and drama, Scratchgravel Road will take readers on an unforgettable journey (Gumshoe Review)
