A Serpent's Tooth

Craig Johnson

4.11 AVERAGE


Read as an audiobook by a gravel-voiced actor who seems to be enjoying the folksy side of the character, this is another installment of Law and Order: Absaroka County, this time with a nutty dynastic religious cult connected to an oil scam and gunrunning, Mormon Lost Boys, a guy who claims to be a more than 150 year old Mormon Danite enforcer, a ranch owner's wife with ties to the CIA and the usual background of the rural county's eccentric people.
adventurous mysterious

I'm not sure why I didn't love this one as much as previous books in this series, but it might have been because I read it instead of listening to the audiobook, which I have done for all previous ones, which is interesting.

4.5 stars

My favorite book in this series so far.

Audible free, fairly intricate story seemingly taking place in only a few days. Bummer that certain people are getting killed off. I wonder how the author makes the choice to do that
