About this listen

Mick Hardin, a combat veteran now working as an army CID agent, is home on a leave that is almost done. His wife is about to give birth, but they aren't getting along. His sister, newly risen to sheriff, has just landed her first murder case, and local politicians are pushing for city police or the FBI to take the case. Are they convinced she can't handle it, or is there something else at work?

She calls on Mick who, with his homicide investigation experience and familiarity with the terrain, is well-suited to staying under the radar. As he delves into the investigation, he dodges his commanding officer's increasingly urgent calls while attempting to head off further murders. And he needs to talk to his wife.

The story is a good one but the short sharp sentence structures and readers delivery make it special. They reflect the main character and author's characterisation of Appalachia really effectively. Meant this listener starting caring about the main protagonists and plot outcome very quickly. Will now follow more of these tales.
