In Texas, at least, everyone has an opinion about guns, and they aren't "shy" about expressing them. So I started this book a little hesitantly, not wanting to hear more of the same. But it was handled well and I enjoyed the different viewpoints expressed in the relationship between John Marlin (who expressed the view of every man in my family in one single sentence) and Nicole. I was pleased too with the complexities of the plot and how the story ultimately came together. There's always so much going on in Rehder's books, and he has the Central Texas talk down perfectly - at least one phrase or one story in each of his books makes me laugh out loud. I also enjoyed the narrator's work - he even had a little Keith Morrison sound going on in places. I'll look forward to more of this series and to keeping up with Red, Billy Don, and the rest of the Blanco County gang.

This is my second Roy Ballard listen, but it won't be the last. Having been a Texan all my life, and a Central Texan for the last 40 years, I am delighted with the author's observations that I know to be true but wouldn't have thought to comment on. (Still smiling trying to picture a Texas motel without a swimming pool.) The characters are real and likeable; I particularly enjoy the ongoing relationship between Roy and Mia, the promise of Hannah's development as a character, and Roy's spiritual doppelganger Detective Rueles. I ennjoyed the techie stuff and the clever wordplay. Narrator is very clear and his voice draws a great picture of Roy Ballard. Only minor quibble is in a couple of pronunciations. I have no idea how to pronounce, say, Wilkes-Barre, but. I would ask before trying it. Wish the same have been true of New Braunfels - it hurt to hear the accent on the "fels". And then there was the word chilaquiles. But very minor quibbles in a delightful listen about how much trouble a Texas viideographer can get into (and how much fun he can have) doing fraud investigations. Great story, great listen, ready to start my next one already. Fun!
