describes “Dr. No” as a “breezy, strange, frequently hilarious, action-adventure story that’s rife with Everett’s talent for deadpan dialogue and vivid scene-setting” with “brainy tangents.”Everett delivers the familiar elements of a classic western — the quiet lawman who sets out to deliver justice, broken bad guys, women in trouble, a kindhearted mother — and then gradually undermines everything you think you know. Readers meet Ogden Walker, a deputy sheriff in the tiny town of Plata, N.M.

And in that sere landscape, you watch as a man’s identity dries up and blows away.An abstract painter and family man with a wife and kids, Kevin Pace appears to live an idyllic life in New England. But ason this domestic drama, the cracks in the paint are cast into relief.
