Story
When the call comes in that Mike Wilson, the unlikable owner of West Branch Lodge, has gone missing, Sheriff Tully is delighted. This is an excellent opportunity for Tully, his tracker pal Dave, and his retired sheriff father, Pap, to enjoy a few evenings of hot tubs and single-malt scotch at the luxurious lodge while working the case. However, visions of R & R vanish in a flash on the drive up, when Tully and Pap suddenly realize an avalanche is thundering down the mountain, straight toward them.

Story
Sheriff Bo Tully is the kind of western lawman who's as good with the ladies as he is with his guns, and he never lets a death threat get in the way of a good barbecue. He's a man with a sense of humor, which comes in handy when trying to establish order in Blight County. In this latest tale, Tully pursues a 75-year-old missing persons case in which a pair of gold miners (a two-man drilling team known as a double-jack) mysteriously disappeared just as they hit the mother lode in a remote part of Blight County.

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.

Publisher's Summary
Bo Tully, the renowned sheriff of Blight County, Idaho, has seen his share of small-town crime. And, he always gets his man, whether by the book or otherwise. Fact is, everyone in the area knows Tully, and his unique 'Blight Way' of doing things.
When Tully and his deputy hike deep into the woods, tracking a suspected bank robber, little do they realize that they are about to witness a murder. Soon, the murder leads the Sheriff on a convoluted adventure, with a series of twists and turns, each demanding his utmost attention and keenest crime-solving abilities.
Along the way, Tully has to deal with the likes of a shadowy local named Gridley Shanks; two out-of-town elk hunters who don’t know much about elk hunting; an elderly couple who end up dead while caring for a rundown mansion; a sassy assistant named Daisy; and an attractive, tough FBI agent named Angie, who suddenly finds herself involved in her first murder investigation. There’s also the case of missing loot, which no one can find, at least not until Tully puts his mind to it. Will Tully get his man (or men) this time? Does the 'Blight Way' ever fail? Listen to another enticing mystery, turned misadventure, by New York Times bestselling author, Patrick F. McManus, to find out!

Another Bo Tully Success
These shorter books are a great listen and worth a laugh or two. McManus has a knack for one liners that are really pretty clever and funny. As the series progresses, the reader learns to like the characters more and more. I was a little concerned that the latest narrator was different, but he got the job done and seemed to get in the spirit of things. This mystery is a little different than the others - simpler. If you're looking for a Nobel prize winner, you need to look somewhere else. If you're looking for a lighthearted mystery with some funny characters, then you've come to the right place.

Bo Is Back Again
Would you listen to The Tamarack Murders again? Why?
Probably not. It was fine, but not a stand-out listen.
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
Most interesting: The puzzle of the crime had quite a few twists and turns. Least interesting: The final reveal at the end which provided information that the reader was not given to work with which acts as a lynch pin to the story.
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
The performance was a bit flatter than previous books by this author. This narrator was less theatrical about the character voices and it diminished the listen, in my opinion.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
yes, it was short and interesting enough that I did listen to it - mostly - in one sitting.
Any additional comments?
I have to say that this is probably the weakest in the series so far. The story was average, the narration average. I would recommend it only to Bo Tully or Patrick McManus fans. This would not be a good way to hook someone in on the series.

Love all the Bo Tully books!
All of the Bo Tully books are excellent stand alone stories, but do have some links to the other books. I recommend listening to them in order. This is Book #5. The narration was good, just not quite as good as Charles Leggett in "The Blight Way" or Tom Stechschulte in "The Huckleberry Murders". Peter Coleman does great at all the male voices. The females....not so much. They all have the same slightly annoying voice, and not what I got used to with the other 2 narrators. Overall, still I enjoyed every minute and I highly recommend!

Mediocre .
Convoluted sometimes incoherent blabbering. Little of mystery or whatever. Do not waste time listening to it.
