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.

Review by LAWonder10:
Donnie briefly, tentatively, renewed his friendship with his former best friend, Wesley Bird, only to b betrayed again.
While dealing with personal and financial challenges, Donnie discovers problems he must deal with in Austin, as well.
Life is not looking very positive for him. Nevertheless, he still has his career and obligations which he must attend to. Just like always, he finds "silver lining" around many of the clouds.
Most of the characters in Book #3 of the Donnie Ray Quinn series, have been previously introduced and are as real as ever. The scenes are just as adventurous and described well. This Book cover and title are a good "fit" and would attract the "browser" a little more than the previous book but could be better.
The book steadily maintained adventure with occasional humor.
I offer a Four Stars rating.
*This book was gifted me with no requirement for a positive review. This is my honest review.

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.
