The second novel in Phillip De Poy's engaging new mystery series, "Too Easy" follows Flap Tucker, "Zen detective" and his best friend Dalliance Oglethorpe into the deep South of mini Georgia and a deadly quagmire of tangled family relations and long-held grudges.Flap Tucker and Dalliance Oglethorpe, proprietress of Atlanta's best nightclub, Easy, return in their second mystery, a case that will demand all of Flap's special meditative gilts as he ventures into the deep South of rural Georgia and a quagmire of tangled family connections and long-held grudges. The Turner twins, Maytag and Peachy, have gone missing, hot on the heels of the vanished Lydia Habersham, a half-wild free spirit more at home in the sea than with her aristocratic, monied family. Behind them lies the body of one Lowe A cree, Lydia's banker husband and cousin of the county sheriff, who once harbored romantic ambitions of his own toward Lydia. Their trail will lead Flap and Dally from desolate lowlands to timeless coastal islands, to the centuries-old cemeteries of Savannah. And as Flap searches inward for the answers others will kill to keep buried, he will be forced to confront his own forgotten past and a longing for family he has tried to deny.
