Orange groves up-rooted for tract houses, people flooding into Orange County, strange new ideas in the air about war, music, sex, and drugs, and new influences, ranging from Richard Nixon to Timothy Leary. For the Becker brothers, however, the past is always present -- and it comes crashing back full force when the body of the lovely and mysterious Janelle Vonn is discovered in an abandoned orange-packing plant. The Beckers and the Vonns have a history, beginning years ago in high school with a rumble between the brothers of each clan. But boys grow up. Now one Becker brother is a cop on his first homicide case. One's a minister yearning to perform just one miracle. One is a reporter drunk with ambition. And all three are about to collide with the changing world of 1968 as each brother, in his own unique way, tries to find Janelle's killer. As suspects multiply and secrets are exposed, the three Becker brothers are drawn further into the case, deeper into the past, and closer to danger. 762607 2004 California Girl total:220|5:31|4:76|3:85|2:23|1:5| 220 765 311 44 120218 0060562374 9780060562373 207 39 3.48 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171821491m/120218.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/120218.California_Girl 4 1 false Sun Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Mon Jun 02 08:12:34 -0700 2008 Wed Jun 04 16:41:54 -0700 2008 California Girl is a well written crime novel.
