Bayou City Burning

He's tough and smart. She's tough, smart, and 12.Houston, 1961. Texas' slickest politician has lost his presidential bid to a good-looking naval hero from Massachusetts but gained the Senate gavel. And if President Kennedy wants to put a man on the moon, LBJ wants to put Houston at the center of the moon mission. Sleepy backwater Houston finds itself short on air conditioning just when things are heating up.In a seedy downtown office, a well-dressed out-of-towner hires P.I. Harry Lark to tail two DC visitors looking to build NASA a space center, but his client turns up dead in Harry's office. Meanwhile, Harry's twelve-year-old daughter Dizzy and her chums are running a lost-and-found out of a suburban garage when they're hired to find a missing father who's supposed to be dead and buried. Then Harry is hired to clear a local civil rights group in a series of firebombings. As these cases dovetail and put both father and daughter in the path of dangerous men, Harry and Dizzy race to discover the connections before the city goes up in flames.
