Cole Blackwater's life isn't what it used to be. Once a political superstar within Ottawa's environmental movement, he now runs a nearly defunct conservation strategy consulting firm that distinctly lacks a paying client. His ex-wife loathes him for a scandalous affair that ended their marriage, he feels he's failing his eight-year-old daughter as a father, and he's turning far too often to the bottle to solve his problems. When Peggy McSorlie, head of the Eastern Slopes Conservation Group, seeks his help to stop a mining project planned for Alberta's magnificent Cardinal Divide, Blackwater jumps at the opportunity to earn enough money to pay the rent and buy a few pints at his favorite pub. But when Mike Barnes, head of the mining project, is brutally murdered and a radical member of Eastern Slopes is accused of killing him, Blackwater must first prove the man's innocence in order to save his own business, and the future of the Cardinal Divide.

Editör yorumları

Veteran performer Jay Snyder’s rich timbre sets the mood for this murder mystery from first-time novelist, Stephen Legault. Snyder’s well-paced delivery takes listeners up to the beautiful Cardinal Divide in Alberta, Canada, and follows a failed politician’s attempts to help save this national treasure. The Cardinal Divide is the gripping and surprising introduction to Cole Blackwater, a political figure who has fallen on hard times, both professionally and at home. Peggy McSorlie, head of the Eastern Slopes Conservation Group, presents Cole with a great opportunity to not only save a beautiful piece of land, but also maybe his career. When a leading opponent turns up murdered, however, Cole realizes he’s signed up for far more than a simple PR stunt.

Environmental activism meets whodunnit murder mystery. Story and characters a bit overblown but I kept reading to the end!

Glad I persevered

I found this author by chance and now I’m hooked!
Using the backdrop of Alberta and the amazing Cardinal Divide region which is threatened by mining development this is a gripping environmental murder mystery !
Cole Blackwater is an unforgettable investigator with his own demons to deal with and you experience every nerve shredding moment with him
Jay Snyder is an excellent narrator and succeeds in assuming the personalities of both male and female characters in a natural way
I’m looking forward to my next encounter with Cole Blackwater but from the comfort of my armchair!
My only criticism is that the last part of the story is a bit repetitive and I was eventually impatient for the conclusion

Shame I was hoping to have discovered a new writer, character and environment but can't believe how unbelievably tedious repeatitive use of product placement and character tropes. The story line may have been good but I'm not dragging my way tro this advertisement to find out.

Tedious and wordy
