Staff Recommendation: Border Songs

The border between Washington State and Canada is crawling with drug smugglers, illegal immigrants and renegade dairy farmers in this slyly humorous satirical novel. Brandon Vanderkool, a slightly autistic, remarkably artistic, innocent border patrol agent, only wants to track birds and build Andy Goldsworthy type sculptures but the criminals keep getting in the way.
