The day Dooley Crawford listened to his daughter’s advice or even his doctor’s would be one for the record books.
“When he retires from the police force and c...an spend all the time he wants out at the farm with his cows and tractor and fishing ponds, he’ll get better. He’s under too much stress.”

She knew for a fact her father had given Sloan several speeding tickets.MoreLess
