About this listen
After a young woman and a bull are found dead in a dark pasture, Blanco County game warden John Marlin is asked to assist with the investigation. Was it a case of rustling gone wrong? Or maybe a prank turned deadly? Marlin hopes the woman's boyfriend can shed some light on the situation, but he's nowhere to be found. Is he on the run or did the woman's violent brother take matters into his own hands? Marlin and a special investigator - an old flame from his college days - join forces to see past the bull and discover the truth.

The book starts off in a casino and then flashes back a bit. All the trouble these two get into before they make it there is insane but I sure did love watching it all unfold.

Narrator: Robert King Ross
Another mystery in Blanco County and Red & Billy Don find themselves in the thick of it once again, I really enjoy these two.
As with the other stories it swaps between characters a lot and there are twists and turns as all the pieces pull together to solve the mystery but the storyline is easy to follow. With humour, good characters and a decent plot this series doesn’t get old.
This narrator is ok but he does tend to make the characters sound more like mafia than anything else.

I enjoyed loved listening to Robert King Ross
The two main characters are brilliant. Red and Billy Don are great to listen to and the humour between them is great.
Having to solve another mystery together. Great plots.

Entertaining listen from this author
I do love Ben Rehders ideas for stories in the Blanco County series, and the narrator makes you feel as if you are there in Blanco County watching the hapless duo, Red and Billy Don find their way through another series of events. They are always a little smarter then you (the reader) and game warden John give them credit for!

You won't be steered wrong by getting this book
I enjoyed this book. I found it easy to follow, despite having a number of story lines and jumping from character to character as the story unfolds. This is book nine and is a good example of why the series is still going strong and fans keep returning to Blanco County. With the authors unique sense of humour and understanding of the characters the story hooks you from the start and you never know where the story will end up. The characters are always entertaining and colourful and you can always count on certain ones to cause or get into trouble but at some point there luck has to turn, right? Not sure why the main character of John Marlin hasn't applied for the deputy job because he does more investigating for the sheriff than he does being a game warden but it still works. Off to start the next book.
Game warden John Marlin is called in help when a woman's body is found under the dead body of a bull. Was she trying to steal the owners cattle? A prank gone wrong? Or just a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time? The only person who might be able to shed some light on the death is the victims boyfriend but he has gone missing, despite his truck having been seen in the area several times. Why is he staying in the area? Staying with family or just hiding from the dead woman's violent brother? Can John find out what really happen the night she died? Meanwhile poachers Red and Billy Don are having there own problems as they get ready to go to Vegas to win it big at the black Jack tables. It seems someone has it out for Red and is taking pot shots at him. What could he have possibly done now that would make someone want to kill him? Red and Billy Don set there own trap to find out and capture more than they were bargaining for.
I like the narrator and have grown use to his delivery of the story.
