About this listen

A female bounty hunter tracks a serial killer to a rural mountain town.

A town with its own dark secret...

After serial killer Randall Burton is diagnosed with a terminal disease, he decides to jump bail and go out in a blaze of glory.

One woman stands in his way.

Her name is Counsel Fungo, and she’s an exceptionally talented bounty hunter, if a little eccentric. Officially, her two canine companions are therapy dogs. But she considers them partners. Counsel will do anything to stop criminals from preying on the vulnerable, and she’s intent on stopping Randall Burton.

Randall’s trail leads to sleepy Rancor, Pennsylvania. Named one of the safest towns in America, it’s a quiet town tucked away in the Poconos. Its citizens are mostly widowers, bowlers, and bingo players.

But there’s a reason no one in Rancor has reported a major crime in the past 50 years.

And neither Counsel nor the killer are quite ready for what this town has in store....

Chris Bauer pens a gripping thriller filled with dark humor and clever twists. Recommended for fans of Stephen King and Elmore Leonard.

I really enjoyed this one. I don't want to give any of the story away, so I'll keep this a bit general. The bad guy was very bad, the good guys where good but not perfect and the whole thing was just great fun. The whole thing could have gone badly off the rails if it had been written for laughs (and it could have been), the humour, although never far from the surface, is kept from overpowering the story, and there is a definite undercurrent of menace running alongside.
The narrator was really good, and managed the various parts well.
Overall, I'd happily come back to the story of Council Fungo and her deputies.

An excellent thriller with an intriguing heroine.

A thoroughly enjoyable roller coaster of a ride. The villain is suitably repugnant. The hero is thoroughly divine. I adored the element of the elderly vigilantes. A great audio book that I'm thrilled to recommend.

Brilliant

I listened to this book right the way through in one go. It was intelligently written and I learnt a little about Tourettes. Recommended!

Great crime thriller!

An exciting rollercoaster of a story about our new favourite heroine. Counsel Fungo, a bounty hunter with a hard shell, a soft centre and a troublesome condition, or two, that causes her extreme embarrassment and some hilarity. Oh and two canine partners.
As she sets off on her latest case she finds things she never expected to. A “perp” who is much much worse than she imagined, a lovely town with a dark secret and someone she can trust in ways she didn’t think she ever would.
The kaleidoscope of characters are very well drawn and refreshingly not all perfect and glamorous. They cover all age ranges, some healthy, some not, they have flaws and make mistakes, but best of all their actions make you stop and think, do you follow the rules, or make your own?
Be prepared for some twists and turns and an astonishing finale! With some explicit language, dark humour and darker events it’s not a book for everyone, but I loved it !

Exciting, nonstop thriller.
