Trechery, by R. T. Lund was an excellent and pleasingly complex crime thriller. In the story, the wife of a federal judge is found nude and dead in the rocks under a bridge in a state park. Enter a law suit against the Catholic Church (she was a lawyer) and a heap of mail and banking fraud and you have the elements of my kind of thriller. I found the story to be super well crafted with an intriguing attention to detail. The reveals in the story were expertly coordinated to keep the story morphing and growing. Well done. The conclusion is hot and active. Then comes the Perry Mason style wrap-up. It all seems to make sense. I was a fan of Perry Mason. But… what did we forget? Lund got me good. My rating, five stars for both R.T. Lund and for Treachery. You’re going to love it and we’re going to hear more good things about R.T. Lund. Jeff Bailey, author of the thriller Not On My Watch.
