As Animal Control Officer Art Hood tries to collect fines on a dog that snatches balls from the golf club fairways, it becomes clear that he and the dog's caretaker, Evelyn, are attracted to each other. So begins their tense, muted coutship---a mutual wooing that for Art soon grows frustrating, humorous, and suspenseful as he wrangles with Evelyn's abrupt disappearance, his mother's dementia, and the shadowy machinations of a rival for Evy's attention from her mysterious past. Wrangling Echoes, a narrative richly nuanced and wonderfully difficult to stuff into any one genre, is a potluck supper of Americana, at times reminiscent of Flannery O'Connor and Faulkner, and one that folks who know and love the cultural heritage of Appalachia will especially enjoy.

B. (William) Breckenridge holds a Master of Arts degree from Pitt and was runner-up in the 1982 Redbook Young Writers Contest. Wrangling Echoes is his first published novel. He and his wife, Janet, live in White Oak, near Pittsburgh, and close to their three grown children. Most evenings Jan and he can be found trying to keep pace with the Jeopardy contestants. And showing little success. Often, as the day's light yields to the clamoring insect horde in the trees, he sits in the yard out back, sips a ridiculously hoppy IPA, and searches yet again for an answer to life's most vexing question: why is it so hard to break even playing exactas in a nine-horse field?
