About this listen

When a local pickleball player is shot in the head while practicing at an abandoned tennis court with his partner-slash-lover, Sheriff Lew Ferris suspects that the bullet was a stray shot from hunters in the area. It’s not until a second player—the first victim’s mistress and pickleball partner—is killed that Sheriff Ferris realizes this is no hunting accident. Someone is hunting people, and it’s up to her to find out who.

With the first victim’s crazed widow breathing down Lew’s neck, there’s no room to breathe, let alone to find time to appreciate the beautiful Loon Lake fall and go fishing. Adding to Sheriff Ferris’s difficulties are three pickleball players convinced someone has targeted them, someone who will do anything, even murder, to frighten them away from the courts where they play—but why? Who is really at risk? The pickleball players, or Lew and the people close to her?

Twists, turns, and things totally out of left field in the plot. With this book, I feel like we know the characters and some of their backstories learned in earlier books. There is brief synopsis for each if you are coming directly into this book. Still some fishing but not as heavily covered as in the first book. Sad for Lew, more paperwork, less fishing.

Twists snd turns

I enjoyed Houston's other series, Loon Lake, but this series is predictable and superficial.
After first or second chapter you know that the most over-the-top bully; the most annoying, arrogant, sarcastic, entitled person or people are either going to get murdered or do the deed.
Also every book in this series could be a stand-alone because it repeats, in detail, all the personalities in the book.
Also much detail on fly-fishing, more than most people will ever need.
I guess I'm just disappointed in these books cuz the Loon Lake series was much better.
The ending to this particular book was very anti-climatic.

So predictable
