“Bad Bobby” Trent, star high school athlete, college scholarship holder, pro-rodeo circuit rider, lived an unencumbered life. He was a man, who, by his own definition, limited his concentration to no more than eight seconds at a time - the time required to ride a bull or saddlebronc and win. He’s tough, independent, shallow, and always looking for a good time. Then his father is murdered. Sheriff Robert Trent, was the longtime chief law enforcement officer of Lodge Pole County Montana. He was stern, fair, honest, and dependable.

More western sheriff stories!
Reviewed: 12-18-18
Always have enjoyed books set in the modern day west - like Longmire by Craig Johnson and Joe Pickett by CJ Box. Kwen Griffeth has found his stride down that book road with Bobbie Trent. The story develops at a nice pace, has colorful backdrops and is narrated extremely well.
Cannot wait for the next one in this series.

What disappointed you about The Highway?
Not you typical CJ Box and Joe Pickett sort of book
Would you ever listen to anything by C.J. Box again?
Very questionable.
What do you think the narrator could have done better?
Okay - couldn't get past the story line.

Would you consider the audio edition of NYPD Red to be better than the print version?
NYPD takes a bit to get started up but it makes. The book spends a lot of time building the characters in the beginning of the book - good news is the pace quickens and keeps wanting to listen.

Hadn't listened to Nelson Demille before - wow - what a treat. Well constructed story, so well constructed that it seems slow at the being but it is necessary detail.
Strongly recommend.
