About this listen

When Maggie Blackthorne returns to her hometown after nearly 20 years to serve as an Oregon State Police Sergeant, she expects to deal with the usual suspects - drunk drivers, oxy slingers, and the occasional rural scofflaw.

But after she stumbles upon the bullet-ridden bodies of twin brothers, she realizes she’s stepped into something much more sinister. With little homicide experience, Maggie and her partner, Trooper Hollis Jones, find themselves thrust into the murder investigation.

And when a third man turns up dead, Maggie fears it’s only a matter of time before the killer strikes again. As they race to piece together what happened, Maggie and Hollis discover a tangled web of theft, deceit and deals gone bad.

Faced with multiple motives and several persons of interest, Maggie and Hollis finally catch a break - but are they willing to risk everything to put the murderer behind bars?

Oregon State Police Sergeant, Maggie Blackthorne, runs the small station in her hometown. It’s normally quiet, except when a tip leads her to a couple of poachers. Things really heat up when those poachers are murdered…and one calls her just before the killing! Maggie and her team assist the overworked homicide detective in solving the murder. I loved Maggie! She’s full of wit and doesn’t back down from trouble. The narrator portrayal of Maggie is just what I pictured in my head! Looking forward to the next book.

I loved the Eastern Oregon setting. Good charactor development.

Alternative lifestyles, belief systems and roles for the win.
Traditional lifestyles, roles and belief systems, not so much. Big time.
The depth and breadth of the heroine’s salty language was impressive, even amusing, as was her use of blasphemy. (Except for Christianity she managed to spare the other mainstream faiths.)
The narrator might have checked the correct pronunciation of Willamette, but native Oregonians are used to non-natives and A.I. mispronouncing it, so that can be forgiven.

Try books by William Kreuger for good writing in the same genre with your money being much better spent.

As the book went along it became weak and wearing
