Narrative Supposing Books Astride a Pink Horse

The Cold War ended years ago, or did it? For Thurmond Giles, a decorated African American Air Force veteran found naked, dead, and dangling by his ankles inside a deactivated minuteman missile silo in desolate southeastern Wyoming, the answer is no. The labyrinthine investigation that follows his death—led by former fighter pilot Major Bernadette Cameron and ex-college baseball phenom-turned-reporter Elgin “Cozy” Coseia—reveals how the atomic era’s legacy has continued to destroy both minds and lives.
 
Astride a Pink Horse follows Bernadette, Cozy, and Cozy’s boss Freddie Dames match wits with a gallery of unforgettable murder suspects: a powerful, right-wing-leaning cattle rancher; a declining seventy-six-year-old WWII-era Japanese internment camp victim and her unstable math professor cousin; an idealistic lifelong nuclear arms protestor; and a civilian Air Force contractor with a twenty-year grudge against the murder victim. Do three amateur detectives stand a chance against these characters and the conspiracy that may be behind it all? Robert Greer’s trademark mix of vivid eccentrics, surprising plot twists, and political edge makes this one of his most memorable thrillers.

Write Up Of Books Astride a Pink Horse

In Astride A Pink Horse, Robert Greer has penned a suspenseful thriller of political intrigue. When Thurmond Giles, a retired African-American Air Force veteran, is found dead dangling by his ankles inside a deactivated minuteman missile silo in southeastern Wyoming, authorities believe this is a cut-and-dry murder case. After all Thurmond is a known womanizer, and his skills as a nuclear-missile warhead expert have not been needed since the Cold War ended. Major Bernadette Cameron, one of the

A good mystery - a page-turner in some respects - with several misdirections. An Air Force Major investigating a break in at a closed missile site, a sheriff investigating the murder at the site, and a tech-illiterate conspiracy theory web site reporter sticking his nose into both make an interesting combination. The reason for the title was disgustingly real and something I wish I didn't know, but it was at the root of one of the character's issues.

Fun little rompA quick, tight story about revenge served cold. It meanders a bit at the denouement but all in all an enjoyable read. Looking forward to more stories of Bernadette, Cozy, and Freddie.

*First Reads Won*Overall writing was good, except for a few odd wordings that didn't make sense and random lines skipping during dialogue. The plot was good, but the story line predictable. Some things, like Bernadette's and Cozy's relationship sometimes seemed more as an after thought than a part of the story. The main characters were thought out, even though never fully described. The side characters were much too vague.It was intriguing though, with the characters fitting the role they were

I wanted to read something by this Denver author. An Air Force veteran is found in a former missile silo in SE Wyoming. Local law enforcement, an ezine writer and a female AF Major investigate the web of possibilities in tracking those responsible. I liked the Bernadette Cameron and Elgin "Cozy" Coseia characters. The writing seemed a bit wordy at times, I think could have been stronger with a little tighter writing/editing.

Professor and doctor by day, mystery writer at night, Denverite Robert Greer has an interesting new stand alone mystery for his many fans. This one stars Elgin "Cozy" Coseia, once a very promising baseball player, now an investigative reporter, and Major Bernadette Cameron, an investigator for the Office of Special Investigations for the Air Force. Starting from different angles, both are looking into the murder of a nuclear technician, which brings out protestors, which seems to lead to another
