The Day That Dusty DiedDescription for THE DAY THAT DUSTY DIED by Lee Martin: "Debra, I've got to ask you Rhonda's been telling me the most awful things about your dad they're not true, are they?" I sat up. In a loud, harsh voice I scarcely recognized as my own, I told my mother, "Let the past be the past." After she left, silently, I sat up for along time thinking Fort Worth Police Detective Deb Ralston ought to know that she can't follow her own advice to leave well

Description for THE DAY THAT DUSTY DIED by Lee Martin:

"Debra, I've got to ask you---Rhonda's been telling me the most awful things about your dad---they're not true, are they?"

I sat up. In a loud, harsh voice I scarcely recognized as my own, I told my mother, "Let the past be the past."

After she left, silently, I sat up for along time thinking...

Fort Worth Police Detective Deb Ralston ought to know that she can't follow her own advice to leave well enough alone. Fore example, there's Dusty Miller: a popular, pretty, straight "A" student who leaps off her fourteenth-story balcony just before Deb barrels onto the scent. Too late. It's out of her hands, everyone tells her, but the question of why Dusty did it keeps nagging at Deb.

That's not all, of course. Partially laid up after foot surgery, Deb grudgingly agrees to work in the Sex Crimes Unit, where she'll be the only woman and maybe the only one competent enough to get to the bottom of tricky cases, like The Super Glue rapist and the over friendly Mr. Washington.

Deb finds the work disturbing, especially since she can't seem to stop thinking about her own dreadful childhood. Life at home isn't easy either, what with the reappearance of her desperately ill younger sister Rhonda after a ten-year absence, her mother's insistence that Deb needs her overbearing brand of help, and her husband's tendency to keep his thought to himself. And the dreams, of poison-spitting snakes and tidal waves, peppered with Dusty and Rhonda and the girl whose mother her, that appear whenever she closes her eyes...

This is #9 in a Deb Raltson Mystery.

Favorite Socks Ever
Size: Medium, Color: Black/Assorted, Size: Medium, Color: Black/Assorted
I absolutely love these socks, they compress in the middle which is my favorite thing about them! Keeps them from slipping off my feet and also adds support, love love love how they feel and how long they last! This is my second pack that I’ve purchased, I had the multi colored ones before and they’ve lasted me two years before finally starting to wear out and fade and get holes. Definitely going to be routinely buying these every year. Good to wear with my work out shoes...winter boots, Nike sandals, and my everyday adidas sneakers. These are so worth it!

Great ankle socks that stay put at a great price!!
Size: 6-9, Color: Assorted
These are great! I have been looking for a low profile ankle sock that is thinner but doesn’t ride down. (Picky, right?) I try to walk 5-7 miles on my days off. So it’s very important for me to not have to stop every couple of hundred yards, bend down, fix socks, then continue on my way while grumbling about NOT GREAT socks. These are not those socks. They really do stay put!!! And enough cushion to be comfortable also. So definitely a repeat!!

Great quality, no holes or fading!
Size: Medium, Color: Black/Assorted
I purchased these socks a couple years ago and love them so much that I just recently purchased them again! They fit perfectly, don't make my feet sweaty, and hit the ankle at the right spot. The material is so good that over years they have not faded and even though I wear the same few pairs every day, they have no signs of thinning or holes! These are the ONLY socks that I buy. I have the black ones as well as the multi-colored ones. I will never buy another brand or style again!
