Atkins blows up Quinn Colson's life in hardscrabble north Mississippi
One of Ace Atkinsâ Quinn Colson books is a strange place to discuss the concept of the âcozyâ, epitomized by Agatha Christieâs mysteries set in small English villages. Colsonâs Jericho, Mississippi isnât as quaint and everything-just-so as an English village, in fact in some ways itâs the opposite. Itâs desperately poor, thereâs no sense of a benign upper class leading the way and looking out for others, the powers-that-be are mostly corrupt, and a lot of its people are never more than a paycheck away from desperation.
But thereâs a social fabric. Quinn Colsonâs blue-collar family and friends hold each other up. Thereâs a sense of continuity and togetherness in their lives, and part of the enjoyment of these novels is Atkins carefully putting the pieces in place for this over the first four books of the series, following Colsonâs return from service as a Ranger in Afghanistan. The family is reunited. Colson finds love. He settles into the century-old family farm.
In this book, Atkins blows it all up, right at the beginning.
In the intervening year since the last episode, we learn, Colson has been ousted at the polls as sheriff by a candidate backed by Colsonâs nemesis, corrupt county supervisor and local strongman Johnny Stagg. Colsonâs sister Caddy, who had left the street life to settle down and raise her biracial son, has fallen apart again after the killing of her preacher boyfriend. Colson has to bloody an axe handle rescuing her from the slums of Memphis, and itâs all the family can do to talk her into going to rehab.
And Colson, who had been following a gradual and promising road to romance with local businesswoman Ophelia Bundren, has ditched her to resume a long-smoldering passion for childhood sweetheart Anna Lee Stevens. Who is married to Colsonâs childhood friend Luke Stevens, now the townâs doctor. Who has found out about it and left her and their daughter. Word of which has gotten around and created a classic small-town scandal. And none of Colsonâs people are real happy with her; they fear sheâll wreck Colsonâs life.
So, thereâs no comfort zone here. Itâs cold and New Year is coming up, with Colson to be ejected unceremoniously from office at 12:01 am, the earliest legal minute. What shall he do with his life? Farm with his father Jason, who has returned to town and their lives? Return to the Rangers and Afghanistan, maybe become an instructor? His friends advise him to leave town. There's nothing good in Jericho. But that would mean leaving Anna . . .
Meanwhile local lowlifes plot to rip off the dirty money stash of one of Staggâs crooked business buddies. Their comic redneck foulness as they try to crack a safe is reminiscent of Carl Hiaasen. After each scene with them you want to take a shower.
