Remembering Ben Clayton has been the pick for Baytown Reads. Not my type, I thought, but once I got into it, I couldn’t stop. It was paperback, tiny print, had to read in the morning while I could almost see it. Ever read a novel in which the protagonist dies on the first pages? Not much flashback, but lots of mystery and intrigue to keep you turning the pages. Many TX places and areas are settings, almost become characters – Abilene, San Antonio, Ranger, Austin. Stephen Harrigan (TX Monthly) is the author. The library had him to speak, very well done to catch our interest without giving anything away.
