About this listen

An unidentified wild creature is on the loose in Blanco County, and, over the protests of game warden John Marlin, the locals have convinced themselves they're dealing with a mythical vampirish beast called a chupacabra. It doesn't help Marlin's cause when a dead body turns up with a fang-like wound in its neck. Then things really get out of hand: tabloid news programs invade Blanco, good old boys Red O'Brien and Billy Don Craddock develop a cockamamie get-rich-quick scheme involving the animal, and everyone is a little surprised at the booming population of voluptuous Chinese dwarves who've turned up in town. If anyone can make sense of the strange events, it's John Marlin, who's well-versed in the intricacies of small-town life, Texas style. But can he do it before another body turns up?

I didn’t recognise John Marlon in this story, this narrator made him and Garza sound more like Mafia than a game warden and police officer, infact, several characters sounded like mafia.
The narration may not have been to my liking but it was a good story, some funny sections in this book look out for the adult movie bits, the names are hilarious.
Red and Billy Don’s antics as always are always good for a chuckle.
Highly enjoyable story, I would recommend.

Good story

This is a fun mystery. I think this is the weakest story in the series so far mainly because the story jumped around so much that I found it hard to follow and keep all the side characters straight. The main ones however still remain strong and interesting and I can't think of another series quite like this one. Where else are you going to listen to a story that contains porn stars and a chupacabra? The story has a number of twists that keep it interesting (as long as you keep them straight) and I am looking forward to starting the next book.
There have been a number of sightings of wild animals in Blanco County and it is game warden John Marlin's job to get to the bottom of it. When a body with fang-like marks in his neck is found it brings out all the hunters in the area trying to bag a new animal for there wall and reporters trying to bag the story of a life time. John isn't sure which is worse. He just knows he has to stop the madness before someone else gets hurt. The Chupacabra isn't the only animal roaming around. Is someone trafficking in wild animals for hunters to snag? Are they getting lose and the reason for the sighting? John and the sheriff Garza are on the trail until someone takes a pot shot at them and Garza ends up laid up in the hospital. Can John track down a mythical creature and find a killer on his own? Or will he get some unlike help from poachers Red and Billy Don.
The author changed the narrator again with this book and unfortunately I didn't really take to him, his voice was to deep and he didn't really have much range for all the characters and they tended to sound the same.

So many murders and crimes in this book that my head was spinning! Watching as the craziness of this town tried to solve these mysteries was fun and the way they all wrapped up in the end was just right. I’m really liking this series so far and will be listening to more in the future.
