| Readers familiar with Barr s entertaining national park mystery series know that Anna rarely finds tranquility in God s country. Her fans can only be grateful that there are still plenty of national parks left for Anna Pigeon to visit. (People) When Anna answers a call to historic Mt. Locust， once a producing plantation and inn on Mississippi s Natchez Trace Parkway and now a tourist spot， the last thing she expects to encounter is murder. But the man Anna finds in the stand s old bedroom is no tourist in distress. He s nearly naked， and very dead， his body bearing marks consistent with an S&M ritual gone awry. On a writing table nearby is an open Bible， ominous passages circled in red. It seems the deceased is the brother of Raymond Barnette， local undertaker and a candidate for sheriff， who wants to keep any hint of kinkiness out of the minds of the God-fearing populace. Ray may be hiding a house full of secrets in the old family homestead， but before Anna can start her investigation， she s waylaid by malevolent poachers， peevish coworkers， and a suddenly turbulent romantic life. And when hidden agendas and old allegiances are revealed， it s suddenly Anna s life that s on the line. Tightly plotted， brilliantly suspenseful， and beautifully written， Hunting Season offers solid evidence that mankind can be as unpredictable and dangerous as the great outdoors. |
