About this listen
Del Sol, New Mexico is known for three things: its fry-an-egg-on-the-cement summers, strong cups of coffee - and, now, a nationwide manhunt?
Del Sol native Sunshine Vicram has returned to town as the elected sheriff, expecting nothing more than a quiet ride. But now a teenage girl is missing, a kidnapper is on the loose, and all of this is reminding Sunshine why she left Del Sol in the first place. Add to that the trouble at her daughter's new school, plus a kidnapped rooster named Puff Daddy, and, well, the forecast looks anything but sunny.
But even clouds have their silver linings. This one's got Levi, Sunshine's sexy, almost-old flame, and Quincy Cooper, a fiery-hot US marshall. With temperatures rising everywhere she turns, Del Sol's normally cool-minded sheriff is finding herself knee-deep in drama and danger.
Can Sunshine face the call of duty - and find the kidnapper who's terrorising her beloved hometown - without falling head over high heels in love...or worse?

WOW
What a great book. I loved the interplay between the different characters. I loved the humour. I loved the chapter captions. It was such a refreshing listen. Just WOW! I haven’t read many books like this one. I have got the next one and hope there are more. I will have to see if the author is like this in her other books.

Fantastic start to a new series
I'm a big fan of Darynda Jones' works, and this was no exception. I laughed - a lot - almost cried a couple of times, and just couldn't stop listening. This was supposed to last me at least a week of boring going to and coming from work drives. I ended up taking only 2 days to listen to it.
Now onto book 2!

Funny and enthralling
Don’t get me wrong, a lot of clues are obvious, but I was hooked all the same.
About to look for the sequel...

The best
Full of actions and OMG I LOVED it.
DARYNDA JONES IS MY FAVOURITE
and LORELEI KING is the best narrator.

Great characters and story, but...
We all have our pet peeves. I can suspend disbelief with the best of them. I don't however care for the plot device of long held misunderstandings being the basis of a relationship or causing trauma. This story contains several such threads, one as yet only a suspicion (but fairly obvious). Sure, the resolution is all the sweeter however as an individual who is known for boring others to tears with explanations to avoid misunderstandings I find it aggravating . Other than this I enjoyed the characters, the snark and story line.
It seems like a promising series but not a story I will reread.
Lorelei King is a masterful narrator who once again keeps all the characters separate, distinguishable and sympathetic.
As most other readers won't be hampered by my pet peeve I have only taken 1 star off for that particular disappointment.

Another brilliant novel from Darynda Jones
New readers AND fans of Charley Davidson will very much love the latest release from Darynda Jones. Funny, thrilling, heart warming and sexy, this has it all. Lorelai King does a fabulous job bring the characters to life. Now to wait until April 2021 for the next instalment!
