"Everybody should read Patrick McManus." —The New York Times Book Review

"Idaho humorist Patrick McManus, author of more than a dozen bestselling books of comic essays on rural life, ventures into the green fields of mystery fiction with exemplary results. A great collaboration." —AudioFile

Bo Tully is the sheriff of Blight County, Idaho, where law enforcement is usually pretty mundane: tracking down truants running away from school, picking up country boys who've had a few too many beers. But Tully gets a little more than the country norm when an ex-con calls with the startling news that there's a corpse draped across one of his fences. Tully needed a birthday present for his Pap (the retired sheriff) anyway, so the two of them head out to investigate the murder. In a tone that's one minute wise-cracking and the next... well, still wise-cracking... Tully and Pap use their wiles to figure out what's happening in this little and not-so-dull town.
