Reviews
"With its offbeat protagonist, vividly rendered settings, and lyrical prose, The Nutting Girl is one of the best debut private eye novels to come along in a long time, and I'm eager to read whatever Fred DeVecca comes up with next." --James Reasoner, author of Texas Wind "In his first novel, The Nutting Girl, Fred DeVecca has taken his keen interests--intrigue, village life, birdsong, pretty girls, Morris dancing, philosophy and film--and woven them into a fun-tastic tale that piques ours. Contrasting the regular heartbeat of the soporific village with the darker, unpredictable machinations of its visitors, DeVecca clearly has some fun moving the puzzle pieces around--to our delight and the ultimate 'ah-ha!' moment." --Virginia Ray, editor/publisher, Shelburne Falls & West County Independent "The Nutting Girl is an absorbing and offbeat mystery with a deep emotional core. Frank Raven is a soulful, full-bodied character in search of a sense of place and a sense of purpose. A delightful book." --Emily Arsenault, author of What Strange Creatures and The Broken Teaglass

Synopsis
Middle-aged Frank Raven used to be a lot of things--a blind monk, a cop, a private detective, and a hard drinker. Now he doesn't do much except run a funky old movie theater in bucolic Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts, dance and sing with the local troupe of Morris Dancers, and record bird songs on his phone. A lanky young wunderkind director, Nick Mooney, brings his Hollywood film crew to town and hires the "retired" Raven to protect his star: the wild, unpredictable, gorgeous, and prodigiously talented twenty-one-year-old Juliana Velvet Norcross, aka VelCro. Reluctant at first, Raven takes on the job and slowly sees that there is more to VelCro than the troubled rebel she appears to be. She probes the former monk for his thoughts on God, love, and the soul. But Raven has renounced many of his former beliefs, and VelCro's questions cause him to re-examine his life. On the eve of filming, storms ravage the small village, and the river that runs through the center of town floods its banks. VelCro becomes ill and withdraws into the care of Sarah, the eighteen-year-old daughter of Frank's girlfriend, Clara. The storm passes, VelCro recovers, and filming begins. But during the first shot, she is swept away into the river, leaving no trace. What role did VelCro's director play in her life? Did she fall? Did she jump? Was she pushed? Frank and Sarah are driven to find out what happened., Frank Raven, a former monk, cop, private eye, and hard drinker, is hired by a Hollywood director to protect his wild young star while they make a movie in Shelburne Falls, MA. After "Velcro" is swept away into the river, Frank is driven to find out what happened. Did she fall? Did she jump? Was she pushed?
