MY REVIEW: (LAWonder10)
Of all the books of the Donnie Cuinn series, so far, this I found to be the most enjoyable! This Book #4 had references to sexual situations but never in detail. It, also, contained very little profanity, which this reader truly appreciated.

A large portion of this book centers on the lives of -"the Monkey House" character David Lewis. The story began as, David's life took an amazing turn upward. This tale centers on his life, and his interactions with other for a few years. Then the unthinkable happens and he needs a good lawyer! He persuades Donnie to represent him.

The trial is very interesting, yet short. This novel will captivate the reader, "catching him/her off guard" with a surprise ending!

The characters, once again, feel real! The scenes are easily visualized. The Cover depicts the story well and the book Cover is slightly excessively graphic but is a good "fit". The Title... I had a problem in attributing it, strongly, to the story content.

I offer a Four and a Half Stars rating.
*This book was gifted me with no requirement for a positive review. This is my honest review.

Book Description:
When budding historian Donnie Ray Cuinn stumbles upon an old letter in the musty bowels of the Texas State Archives, he believes he has uncovered the true story of Sam Payne's valiant, or perhaps not so valiant, capture of Mexican leader Santa Anna during the Battle of San Jacinto. Cuinn's findings are published in a local magazine. But the article eventually becomes fodder in the gubernatorial race between Democratic upstart Bob Braeswood and Republican favorite Sam Eben Payne V, the great-great-grandson of the Texas hero. Braeswood is intent on exploiting the past, while Payne will do anything to suppress it. In the ensuing battle, Donnie finds his beliefs, not to mention his relationships, stretched to the limit in the first novel of the Donnie Ray Cuinn series.

Book Description:

This, the third Donnie Ray Cuinn book, pits Donnie against the old friends and new enemies guilty of land fraud and corporate greed. Donnie returns to Austin from his law practice in the Texas Panhandle to confront All-American football player Wesley Bird, his former best friend. In the company of beautiful, athletic Anna Kaye Nordstrom, Donnie experiences the "new" Austin of glitzy condos, trendy restaurants and social media. He also revisits the "old" Austin of barbecue, power politics and greens versus developers. Donnie finds that not much has changed.

Meet the Author:
BOYD TAYLOR lives in Austin, Texas with his wife and their Havanese dog Toby. Necessities is the fourth novel in the Donnie Ray Cuinn series. In a former life, Boyd was a lawyer and a corporate officer. A native of Temple, Texas, he graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a B.A. in government and an LL.B. from the law school.

Boyd's first novel "Hero" was prescient in its story about fake news. His second novel, "The Antelope Play," dealt with drug trafficking in the Texas Panhandle, an unfortunately accurate forecast. The third, "The Monkey House", involved commercial development of a large green space in the center of Austin, all too familiar to Austin residents. Whether his upcoming novel "Necessities" predicts future events with the accuracy of the earlier books remains to be seen.
