Proof Positive by Archer Mayor
Summary: Ben
Kendall was a troubled man. Coming back from Vietnam with PTSD and scars
that no one else could see, he hid away from the world, filling his house
with an ever-increasing amount of stuff, until finally, the piles collapsed and
he was found dead, crushed beneath his own belongings. But what at first
glance looks to be a tragic accidental death of a hoarder, may be something
much more—and much deadlier. Ben’s cousin, medical examiner Beverly Hillstrom,
unsettled by the circumstances of his death, alerts Joe Gunther and his Vermont
Bureau of Investigation team.
Ben, it seems, brought back something else from Vietnam than personal demons—he
also brought back combat photos and negatives that someone else wants
desperately to keep from the public eye. When Beverly’s daughter Rachel made
her cousin Ben—and his photos—the subject of her college art project, some of
those photos appeared on the walls of a local art gallery. This in turn
resulted in the appearance of a two man hit squad, searching for some other
missing negatives. With Joe Gunther and his squad trailing behind the grisly
research results of the hit team, and the deadly killers closing in on Rachel,
Gunther has little time to find and protect Rachel before she ends up in the
same grisly state as her cousin before her. Archer Mayor's Proof
Positive is another enthralling installment in the Joe Gunther Series.
Angie's Comments: This was a good book that focused mostly on the mystery.
Great for readers who like police mysteries. Although it is one of a series,
this can be read as a stand-alone. I loved the very last page!
