Signs of Life

By Valerie Banfield

Maybe Zach Hoyt's expectations were overly optimistic; the business he inherited from his father wasn't exactly booming. He might also concede that he was a tad na ve to imagine that his past would remain buried, along with his sullied reputation. Now what? Juanita Hoyt wants a do-over. She shouldn't have yielded to her husband's unrelenting pleas to move to this ghastly community. Now Zach has hatched a harebrained scheme to save the business and, once again, he hasn't heeded her objections. Stan Benton collects trouble like a magnet picks up stray nails, and he reaps disorder as often as he dispenses justice. Every little thing fuels his bitterness and his anger-dangerous traits for an officer of the law. When hoodlums set out to overturn the good intentions of the neighborhood watch, why do they heap their efforts at Zach's feet? Why him? And why does Stan get stuck babysitting the community where his notoriety makes him about as welcome as the hooligans he's charged to deter? Is anyone in control here?
