About this listen

Trouble is rising in Montana's Bitterroot Valley and only one man is willing to stop it....

Frank Riordan is waging a one-man campaign to shut down the local pulp mill that is polluting the air and devastating the environment; tensions are growing, and the only man who can help already has troubles of his own. Having served time for accidentally killing a man Iry Paret is making a fresh start on Frank's ranch, where he meets a dynamic and beautiful woman who will test the limits of Iry's loyalty to his friends.

I have read many James Lee Burke novels, mainly the Robicheaux series, but I do enjoy his stand-alone stories. Well-written and very well-performed. He’s great at setting the scene and the pace of the novels often match the atmosphere and setting. America’s greatest ever writer in my opinion. Fantastic.

Excellent and Interesting
