Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
This latest zany addition to the ongoing saga of Oklahoma lieutenant-governor One-Eyed Mack, though full of raffish charm, lacks the zing and pace of other novels ( The Sooner Spy ) in the series. Lehrer, co-anchor of The MacNeil/Lehrer News Hour , sends his Midwestern Everyman to France in pursuit of his crony Luther Wallace, speaker of the Oklahoma House of Representatives, who has disappeared without a trace except for a note saying he won't return until he's good and ready. Having located Luther but failed to convince him to return, Mack comes back to another mystery: Why did a bus driver intentionally go over a bridge, killing himself and his passengers? He also does battle with Oklahoma governor Buffalo Joe Hayman, who wants to build two two-lane turnpikes. Peopled with nostalgic, runaway ex-marines and a "male nympho" Methodist minister, this offbeat morality tale is peppered with jokes and anecdotes about country music, joggers, funerals, venereal disease, lawyers and "New Jersey manners." One-Eyed Mack fans will enjoy another dose of Lehrer's whimsy.

Good story...writing is weak, Aug 16 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Lost and Found (Audio Cassette)
I am a fan of the NewHour with Jim Lehrer and find Mr. Lehrer to be an excellent newsman. However, my expectations in listening to Lost and Found were not met. Mr. Lehrer tells a good story but the quality of the writing was weak. I will try some of his later works to see if there is some improvement in style and substance
