The Yard Dog takes place at the close of World War II, when a large number of German POWs were incarcerated in camps on the prairies of the United States. At Waynoka Divisional Point, near one of these camps, the disillusioned, one-armed Hook Runyon is assigned to run off hobos and arrest pick pockets. When a coal picker is found run over by a reefer car, Hook, and his sidekick, Runt, the local moonshiner, are drawn into a scheme far greater than either could have imagined. The conspiracy involves Nazi prisoners and stolen art and reaches the highest echelons of the camp and beyond. Vivid descriptions of period detail, stark landscapes, and unique characters, and a compelling love story make this first book in the Hook Runyon series a fascinating historical mystery of great literary value.
