Straight River (Used Paperback) - Chris Norbury

The first book in the Matt Lanier series, Straight River throws professional musician Matt Lanier into the improbable roles of amateur detective and unlikely “superhero” against a powerful and deadly enemy. It’s a mystery-thriller set during the emotional and financial depths of a farm crisis in America’s heartland.

Two mysterious deaths compel Matt Lanier, a professional musician by trade, into a search for the killer. With no superhero skills other than his brilliant musical mind and razor-sharp hearing, Lanier uncovers a land-grab conspiracy that could mean financial ruin or death for thousands of farmers . . . and for himself.

If you're a fan of unique characters who defy all odds and stand up against powerful, ruthless foes, then you'll love this story of a musician/hero who marches to a different drummer.
