For •snent Joe," bis ninth thrlller, local author T. Jefferson Parker received t,he 2002 Edgar for best novel. The moody tale is set locally and stars Orange County Sheriff's Deputy Joe 1\'ona -a man scarTed for life by his biological father, who threw acid in bis face when be was an infant .. Rescued from an orphanage by charismat- ic politician Will Trona, Joe is swept into his adoptive father's circle of power. When Will is murdered before his eyes, the duWul son embarks on an investigation that becomes a personal voyage through family secrets. A violent murder also launches •Une of Vision,• attorney David Ellis' best first novel Edgar winner. Pound at the crime scene is • investment banker Marty Kalish, who has broken into the house of bis married Jover to - find her beaten by her husband. When Mar-. ty learns that the police are planning to charge bis girlfrtend with the crime, be con- • fesses, and seeds for a • spellbinding whodunit are planted. Teens looking for liter- ary action will find it in Tim Wynne-Jones' "The Boy ln the Bumlng House,• honored as a best young adult mystery. Play- iJ\g the villain is Father Fisher, who leads the Church of the Blessed 1\'ansfiguration i.Q a remote farming ()()mmunity. When Fisher's bad-girl stepdaughter tells 14-year-old Jim Hawkins that the pastor is responsible for the death of bis father, embers or the past fuel the confused teen's search for truth. For those who prefer true tales, Kent 'Walker serves up back- ground about the capers of bis con artist mom and brother in "Son of a Grlfter." Named best fact crime novel, the book cat- alogs the SC4IJlJ of Sante Kimes and her son, Kenny, both convicted last year of murdering a mllllonaire heiress in New York City. As an account of the psy- chological price of being raised by a sociopath, this is a riveting read about a clan in which one son evolves into a killer and the other lives to tell the tale. Mystery motion pictures did not escape scrutiny. Honored with an Edgar as best of the'bunch was "Memento," now available on videotape on library shelves. Uke most of-the 2002 award-winners, this one begins with a murder, a revenge killing. While violence ini- tiates the action, it's the end of the story about a man who lost his memory through an injury sustained dwing bis wife's murder. To compensate, Leonard Shelby tattoos himself with mementos of dalll be encounters on a hunt to find the killer.

Some smokers find it real- ly helpful to use things like nicotine patches or gum. I ,, find these people to be an alien species. For me, the very thought of reaching for something like a piece of gum to soothe and comfort perpetuated the false hope that anything short of a ciga- rette tould soothe or comfort. Instinctively I was certain that nothing was going to scratch that itch. I opted for the pain plan. The openly hostile, sit down and cry, don't-look-at-me-funny·or-1- swear-l'll-hurt-you plan. I was a delight to eve ryone around me. About a year after I quit, a friend told me that her moth- er. a lifelong smoker, had also quit, using patches. "She feels great.

According to my friend, her mom bas been off the cigarettes.and the patch- es for nearly two yea.rs. She feels great, and she's thrilled she quit. I've never met this woman, but, man do 1 hate her. · For me, quitting smoking was llke ripping a bandage off an emotional wound the size of every negative feeling I ever stuffed down with a cigarette. Every bit of anger, rear. pain, sadness -every- lhing I had soothed with decades of smoking - seemed to be wctiting for me. Don't ge t me wrong, I'm not a fan of pain. But my method of ,quitting smoking, in three words, can best be described as: Feel the pain. And, whenever poss1ble, take it out on someone nearby. Now, on the eve of my three-year armiversary of being a nonsmoker, this is where the happy ending should come in. Where I report that I run marathons and man carnival kissing booths and swim 10 laps underwater on a single breath. That I'm repulsed by the smell of smoke and born again to share my strength with others. Pat chance. Today, when someone who just had a cigarette walks past me in the office, I want to follow him or her just so I can walk in the wake, smelling and breath- ing the residual fumes. Overall, it's much easier ,than it was at first, and it continues to get easier all the time. But that doesn't mean it's not a drag. The stinker about quitting smoking is that the urges constantly change sha.pe and fOrTni are constantly finding new associations to attach themselves to, are constantly finding devious, insidious ways to deliver a debilitating sucker punch. Sometimes lt's u limple u the fact that a dQarette toundl good. But other times, I just really want ICllDething without even real· IDng what I want.

CITY OIL AND GAS FIELDS WHAT HAPPENED: · Council members agreed to extend the city's contract with Sampson Oil Co. to con- tinue operat- ing the oil and gas fields on the city's behalf. Sampson Oil has been doing the job since 1984, and the new contract will extend the relationship for another five years and increase the monthly fee the city pays the company from $4,800 to $5,040 for three years. Then another 3% fee hike would apply for the last two years of the contract, raising it to $5,200 per month. In a separate action, the council also approved a revi- sion to its agreement with the company that used to dispose of all the waste water generated from the oil and gas fields.
