Reviews
"McManus's folksy narrative keeps the reader's interest with plenty of humor, aw-shucks moments, and action. . . . Bo Tully is a treat for readers who like some Western flair and an old-fashioned approach to justice in their mysteries."- Library Journal, "Folksy humorist McManus' fourth Bo Tully mystery exudes lots of country charm and humor." Kat Cam, Booklist, "In McManus's amusing, folksy fourth Bo Tully mystery . . . Tully once again proves an unorthodox and effective lawman, while McManus's storytelling, be it about a haunted lake or a modern mountain man, never flags." -Publishers Weekly, " Genial, amusing and sweet, with quirky characters and just enough plot twists to engage." -- Kirkus Reviews

Synopsis
The fourth installment of Patrick F. McManus's bestselling mystery series starring Blight County sheriff Bo Tully as he follows his instincts when a local retiree disappears and discovers a trail of unexplained murders and mysteries. Sheriff Tully is famous for his hunches--most recently, his suspicion that local retiree Orville Poulson has been murdered by his ranch caretaker, Ray Crockett, a sociopath with a criminal record. The only problem is that Tully has no evidence and no body to prove that a crime has been committed: supposedly, Orville is alive and well and cashing his Social Security checks from Spokane. But before Tully can follow up on Orville's whereabouts, three unidentified young men are found dead of gusnhot wounds to the head, execution style, in a huckleberry patch on Scotchman Mountain. With the help of confident and beautiful FBI agent Angela Phelps, Tully tries to connect the dots between Poulson's disappearance, the sudden spate of murders occurring in Blight County, and a big white pickup truck with dual tires wreaking havoc in the area. But when his few potential leads prove either impossible to track down or unexpectedly deceased, Tully must follow his instincts to piece together the puzzle of who is doing the killing, and why. His suspicions lead him straight into a haunted swamp, along with Agent Phelps, his womanizing ex-sheriff father, Pap, expert tracker and good friend Dave, and mountain man Poke. A twisty case packed with murder and mystery, The Huckleberry Murders is the most entertaining tale yet in this beloved series., Sheriff Bo Tully is the brand of Western lawman who uses as much cunning and guile on the ladies as he does solving his cases. He's a man with a sense of humor and an instinct for the truth, which comes in handy when trying to capture killers and establish order in Blight County.
