Night Moves (reading skills)

Hang with me with the next series of posts on this new book. This new book that I am reading is called Night Moves by Randy Wayne White. I haven't read much into it (a couple of pages), but reading the inside flap thing about it, I know a bit. It is a detective mystery to find five government planes that just disappeared of of the face of the earth. The main character, Doc Ford, has to solve this and, yet, is the target of a murderer that is trying cover his tracts. Rumors fly in their city and nearby cities that Doc and his partners are up no good. My bet is that later the towns turn on him and think they are the ones that stole the planes years ago and they get kicked out. So Doc and his partners avoid being murdered and realize something that one of the commoners said related to the planes disappearing and they arrest him. now in the beginning of this book, it talks about this guy loosing his cat and he want to find it before dark. What? Why? That is probably why I only read a few pages. this reminds me of a TV show called Castle where someone stole a nuclear bomb in NY ant they had to find it within hours. i had to find who stole three packs of gum prom my room once. it was my brother, go figure. in the world, this reminds me of how police have to deal with stolen property and criminals in today's society.
