The narrator needs to work on his Southern accent.

I like the narrator in this series, but as a Southerner, his accent is lacking. I've never met anyone with an accent like that.

Invested in the Picketts & So Much More

I’m enjoying this series and highly recommend it. Until my 5th decade I’d not traveled past the Mississippi River except for work. I now visit the PNW yearly and the beautiful state and National Parks often.
The writing is beautifully vivid and descriptive.
The character development and storylines have been excellent. (which is often lacking in LEO/procedurals)
The mysteries are tight with some twists both surprising and worth the ride.
These huge and stunning backdrops of mountain ranges, fields, rivers and wildlife are so well written.
Don’t let all my gushing fool you—your heart will be pounding and the violence can be graphic & break your heart. This is not a “cozy mystery”—these books have “True Grit”.

The narrator does an excellent job keeping MANY characters distinctive and clear. (Thanks also for not making the women sound insipid with whiny falsettos or the men monotonous with depth.)

Gripping story

Flawed people, evil, twisted intentions. Honor, family, persistence, love. This was a difficult listen. But I will continue to follow the Joe Pickett saga.

Raw & Real

I absolutely love Joe Picket so perhaps I am biased, but this is is a extremely well read audio book, the listener can hear the pain and emotion that only David Chandler can display. The story itself is intense, real and super raw. It is graphic and cutting edge. I highly recommend!! A++

A story of vengeance.

The thing I loved most about this story is that it involves someone coming to Saddlestring to get revenge on Joe for some things that happened in prior books, rather than the usual big environmental issues that involve government bureaucracy and things like that. The issues in this book are personal to Joe and his family. I've loved every book in this series thus far, and I think that this is one of the better ones. David Chandler continues to perfectly narrate this series, and his voices for Joe, Nate, and Sheridan are particularly fantastic.
