Resumen del Editor

Now the best-selling author brings back his small-town chief of police - and her extraordinary Doberman, Daisy - for another exhilarating adventure....

When Holly's wedding festivities are shattered by a brutal robbery, she vows to find the culprits. With nothing to go on but the inexplicable killing of an innocent bystander, Holly discovers evidence that leads her into the midst of a clan whose members are as mysterious as they are zealous. Holly's father, Ham, a retired army master sergeant, is her ticket into their strange world. What he finds there boggles the mind and sucks them all - Holly, Ham, and Daisy - into a whirlpool of crazed criminality from which even the FBI can't save them....

Keep them coming

Anti-White, Anti-South, Anti-Right Political Propaganda Ticking Every Woke Box Pretending to be fiction worth publishing

This race-baiting, Neo-Nazi, White Supremacy crap used as the basis for fictional stories is so old and tired I cannot believe it keeps getting published. Had high hopes for this series but can’t stomach anymore of the nonsense. The group described in this mess of a book is representative of such a tiny fraction of the country you’ll never meet one of them, yet Woke authors, who seem to know very little about anything they use to create their narrative and push the Left’s agenda, write this same story again and again, and audible offers it up repeatedly. I’m guessing there are zero fiction offerings based on the very real, extremely dangerous left groups that vastly outnumber and out-destroy the few extreme right groups every time they don’t like something, i.e. election results. Sick to death of paying for crap like this and then having to fight audible to get a refund.

Great story, good narrator but horrible narrative.

Great story. Well written, no surprise from such a fabulous author.
Mr. Woods did his research and I feel a bit as if I've visited Florida.
The characters are distinct, 3 dimensional and realistic.
The narrative is horrible, not the narrator, her voice or her actual narrative, I've listened to her before and enjoyed it, but how the director had her narrate. The way they chose to represent Holly, for example, did NOT fit her character at all. It was jarring and I eventually just went back to reading the text version. Mr. Woods, if you read these reviews, listen and see for yourself and you'll immediately request a do over. Ms Campbell, I'm so sorry they did this to you.
Buy the print version until there's a do over. 3 stars- 5 for the story, 0 for the narrative = 3 stars.
