Publisher's summary

"You would be hard-pressed to find a finer new series than Tom Bouman's Henry Farrell novels because of the complexity of the plots or the richness of the characters, but what it really comes down to is just damn good writing." (Craig Johnson)

A headless stranger is found in the woods of Wild Thyme, a small town in the Endless Mountains of Pennsylvania. All signs point to a man-killing bear, and Officer Henry Farrell would just as soon leave this hunt to the Game Commission. But doubts arise when he discovers the victim was a retired investigator.

What drew the investigator to sleepy Wild Thyme? Before Henry can find answers, his own nephew disappears into the hills. Then an old flame dies under suspicious circumstances, leaving Henry as the prime suspect.

Torn between protecting his family and clearing his name, Henry fights to protect the most he's ever had to lose.

A tangled story of rural marine small time crime

A deputy finds himself compelled to investigate a death that at first seems due to a bear attack but in the end was a different sort of violence. Many characters. Sometimes I was confused by that.

Story great. Narrator bad.

Ten minutes in and somehow every character so far sounds like Lou, the police officer in The Simpsons. It's frustrating because I've enjoyed the previous two HF books so much. This take place in rural northern Pennsylvania, yet here we are with whatever the hell accent this guy is doing for everyone.

Poor narrator

I couldn’t get into the story because the narrator has no inflection in his voice.
