3.0

Sheriff Dan Rhodes is the chief law-enforcement officer in a small Texas town. He has serious problems that are bigger than you’d think his community should have.

Someone is stealing jewelry off dead people in the town’s only funeral home. The loved ones aren’t happy, as you might imagine, and the funeral director is in serious trouble.

Worse still, someone is breaking and entering summer houses on a lakeshore near town. The vandals and burglars are emptying the houses of their possessions. An elderly woman who also lives on the lakeshore is more than a little trigger happy, and the sheriff finds a naked woman in a closet whose killer mummified her with duct tape.

This is a light-hearted six-hour listen despite the darkness of a murder and stolen items from corpses. The characters will make you smile, and Sheriff Rhodes is finally making an actual date commitment to marry his fiancé. There’s no bad language in the book, and there are no sexual descriptions.
