This is definitely different, but I didn’t really like it. It’s different enough that I might give the second book a shot in the hopes of improvement.

Too many characters. Paragraphs were too long. Too much description and I didn’t care about any of it

Once I again I was drawn to a book simply because of the setting (southern Montana.) But I didn't find anything about this book engaging - the characters were boring, and the mystery wasn't all that mysterious. The ending seemed anticlimactic. There are more in this series, but I won't be reading them.

The first in a mystery series set in a small Montana town -- great setting and interesting characters make up for the not-that-good mystery. The author really nails sordid little towns and the relations among the police, the officials and the press. Good enough that I'm reading the second one.
