It's the week before deer hunting season, as close to a statewide holiday as you get in Texas, and the locals are getting restless. Game Warden John Marlin has his hands full with poaching complaints coming in faster than he can write out-of-season tickets. Then a call of a different sort comes in. A man dressed up in some sort of deer costume has been shot at the Circle S ranch, and witnesses are reporting a massive wild-eyed buck prancing about the pasture in a lovesick frenzy.

Story
Meet Roy Ballard, freelance videographer with a knack for catching insurance cheats. He's working a routine case, complete with hours of tedious surveillance, when he sees something that shakes him to the core. There, with the subject, is a little blond girl wearing a pink top and denim shorts - the same outfit worn by Tracy Turner, a six-year-old abducted the day before. When the police are skeptical of Ballard's report - and with his history, who can blame them? - it's the beginning of the most important case of his life.

The world is not what we think it is. The individuals whose experiences you are about to hear know that only too well, since nothing in their lives had prepared them for their encounters with things that are not supposed to happen - but did! Events like these remain hidden because those they happen to are afraid to speak out of a natural reluctance to have their sincerity or sanity questioned. Societies define their own realities and those who challenge them do so at their own peril. The moral seems to be that where these kinds of events are concerned, ignorance is the best policy.

If I'd read the blurb on this I'd never have downloaded it. It seems to be the kind of thing I'd hate. I got a free code though so started listening and got engaged right away. It's a fun and touching story, not too slushy but moving. The narrator did a really great job.

The Driving Lesson--Lifetime Learning Leaves Marks
Ben Reeder is an amazing author. I really enjoyed his series, and had only read those. Error on my part, I have missed being touched by The Driving Lesson. Charley and Opa take a wild ride from Texas to the Great Northwest. One is 14, freshman; the other, his 62 year old grandpa. It has sweet humor, moral dilemmas, legal questions, hard choices, and a truly memorable story. For a change of pace, this surprising quick read will be one of your newest favorite!

An interesting tale
This book dramatizes and personalizes the issues around assisted suicide in an engaging way. It doesn’t go into deep politics, but rather looks at it through the eyes and experience of a teenager on the brink of adulthood. I found it moving and thought provoking. But also, laugh out loud funny. The narrator does a great job with the YA main character and is engaging throughout. I received this audiobook for free in exchange for a fair review.

I loved the relationship Charlie and his grandpa shared. I think their time together was important and meaningful. I think his parents were out of line to interfere with the road trip. It upset me that they kept trying to insinuate themselves in a private time. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job.
