In this audiobook, the narrator is a sheriff's deputy who goes to investigate a murder. He falls in love with the victim's daughter and becomes determined to solve her murder. This book has many suspenseful moments, but also includes some romance that makes it a nice change of pace from other mysteries.

The Bitterroots is the best book I have listened to in a very long time. The story centers around a man who goes out on a hunting trip and disappears without a trace. When his family later finds him, his body has been transformed into rock hard obsidian. This makes it impossible for him to be laid to rest anywhere. No amount of digging or help from professional gravediggers can break his stone body free from its prison at the bottom of an old mine shaft.

It is the wilderness of Montana, a place where man cannot survive on his own. The forest is vast and takes over what little civilization there is. The weather is harsh and falls to be seen with in the winter time. Nature provides the water and hides away what little food there is but it's all just enough to keep you alive until spring. However, man has made his home in this place and he knows how to survive. It's not easy but it's possible.

The title of this book is "The Bitterroots" and is a story in the genre of Westerns. This novel is about a man called Joe Brazeau who is trying to start a ranch in the Montana wilderness. Joe has an idea to make his ranch self-sufficient and sustainable, but he needs to take out a loan in order not to lose everything. It's also about a bank robbery that happens right before the opening scenes of the novel.

When Jake was eight years old, the Bitterroots killed his father. Now thirteen, he has made a pact with death that when he is eighteen and old enough he would try to kill the Bitterroots in turn.

Together, they go on a thrilling adventure through Montana's wilderness.
