Montana at its best, with a little murder

A murder mystery wrapped up in the Joy's of the beauty of southwestern Montana, scenery and fly fishing.

I like this series set in Montana

This is first book of a Montana-based mystery series led by Sheriff Martha Ettinger and "private detective" Sean Stranahan. I like all the characters (except for the ridiculous Velvet Lafayette). The setting along the Madison River is written so beautifully, I have looked up the location and hope to get there some day. The story is told mostly from Stranahan's perspective. He is a young, good man with sharp intellect and instincts. There is some art, lots of fishing and some good dialog. I will definitely use a credit to purchase the next book in the series.

If you enjoy Walt Longmire or Joe Pickett mysteries, this will be a good listen for you.

Good Easy Read....er listen

If you could sum up The Royal Wulff Murders in three words, what would they be?

Good easy read.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Royal Wulff Murders?

The almost near drowning of Stranahan by the murderer.

Have you listened to any of Rick Holmes’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Not really-the book is an enjoyable, easy read, mystery.

Any additional comments?

If there is a negative the character which is the actual murderer is not introduced in the book until you are halfway into the book. I personally like for all the characters to be introduced up front. Let the games begin!

A royal finish

a bit of a slow start but a heck of a finish. Looking forward to the series

you may have heard this before

enjoyed the passion of the writer his love of fishing and out doors and all things western. Hay,come on. You count all the stream fisherman in America and you have nothing more them a few high school, big city graduation classes. what about the rest of his reader's!
