This is the 17th book in the Sheriff Dan Rhodes murder series. As usual, it is full of wry wit and zany secondary characters. Rhodes loves to shoot down the idea that crimes are solved by CSI and proves it each time by figuring things out on his own.
There's always someone wanting to update Blacklin County's law enforcement. This time a commissioner wants to get an AK-whatever to bring down any terrorists that sneak into town. Of course, Rhodes is having none of it.
But what he is having is a stinking bad time with the stench coming from the chicken farm; everyone is complaining. When its owner is found dead, Rhodes has to find the culprit. To add a bit of whimsy to the mix, someone is shooting arrows around and leaving some foul/fowl statements behind.
These stories grow on a person; I wasn't particularly impressed with my first book (A Romantic Way to Die). Now I look for these stories. This one is a talking-book from the library and George Guidell's voice was perfect for this 'down-home' mystery.
