After a harrowing incident leaves a member of Clint’s family clinging to life, the Mechant Loup detective is called out to investigate a murder case in his small Louisiana town.
Clint’s response time is slow because of his own tragedy, but when he finally arrives, he learns that the father is dead, the family dog unresponsive, and the teenage son missing. Thankfully, the dog has only been tranquilized, but the father is very dead and there is no sign of the son.
As Clint and his team gather more information, they uncover a secret that might explain—or even justify—the killing. Even though Clint suddenly doesn’t like the victim, he still has to investigate the murder and find the missing boy, so he pushes his personal troubles aside and keeps digging.
Before long, he discovers another secret…but this one’s the kind that can get you killed.

I would love to give a five star review, but I have read every book multiple times, and the inconsistencies are too much. One of the main ones is in the book where they go to Tennessee for Reagan‘s funeral. Melvin mentioned that his wife Claire is pregnant. Two books later, there’s no mention of this. Multiple times throughout the books Clint refers to his wife as his fiancé, even though they’ve been married for years. There are many more inconsistencies like this. I think the author should do a better job of keeping up with his characters.
This story starts out with a scene so scary and disturbing, I found myself holding my breath.
And the tension never lets up.
In this police procedural, we get to spend more time with our favorite Mechant Loup detectives and officers as they connect the dots from one murder to two missing persons to a global criminal enterprise. Stakes raise on each page, and the climax is oh-so-satisfying.
Thirty-four books into the series, and I’m still not tired of this cast and this town. Fans of this genre will no doubt feel the same. Highly recommended.
Another exciting adventure for Clint and his team.
While out fishing with his young son, with his faithful dog by his side, Clint encounters a life altering event for Clint. While still reeling from what happened and how his family may never be the same again, Clint is called to investigate a man is murder only to find his son is missing. This triggers a massive manhunt including the town and the swampland. When
This case will put Clint and his team through the ringer and put them all in danger whilst on a collision course with an old and powerful enemy.
Clint Isaiah and Achilles are out fishing when there is a streak attacking Isaiah but is intercepted by Achilles. It is a 16 foot anaconda and it starts squeezing Achilles and Clint fights to save him. At the vets Clint is called out on a murder investigation that involves a murdered dad and 2 missing teanage boys. Fast-paced and ever changing with a very nice surprise ending.
I enjoyed this read a lot. It gives the reader a insist on animal smuggling which is a big problem in the United States and abroad. Its devastating what goes on and very hard for the authority's to catch. Its very sad, animals are beaten, not give food or water for days, not given a proper diet. So thank you for bringing this to light it is very dear to my heart. Bravo for this amazing story..
Such a jaw dropping heart stopping case, you really know how to stop a ladies heart with such suspense and what could be heartbreaking moments. I could not put the book down, I finished it in a little over a day. I recommend to everyone, you must read this book - but to get a hang of all the wonderful characters start at the beginning with But not Forgotten ❤️🇦🇺
Another Clint Wolf special with all the adventures incident in living in the swamps of Louisiana. I had a little problem with the snake killing the pilot and then leaving him to get into the water and eventually drawing the attention of Clint and group. Seems like he would have dined first and traveled later.
Having read and enjoyed the entire series, I'm in a position to say that I think this the best one yet. I think that Mr. Bourg is going to have a hard time topping this one. I look forward to reading his attempt to do so.
Yet again, this book series immobilized me for an entire day. Once one is released everything comes to a standstill until the last page is turned. Terrific book, terrific author!
What a totally fascinating story! I loved it! Book 34 in this series and BJ Bourg is still killing it! I absolutely could not put this book down! Job well done, Sir! Looking forward to the next adventure!
I have read all the Clint Wolf books and London Carter as well to my enjoyment. This was an interesting chapter in the life and adventures of Clint and his crew. Looking forward to what comes next.
Bourg writes some of the best mystery books! He grabs you from the get go, and you’re hanging on until the end! Wolf, and his merry band of officers, take on the meanest cases, and brings them to justice!
I was a bit confused about how old Isaiah is because it kept changing. First he was almost two and then Susan said he wasn't yet 1 and a half. Then they're having a birthday party.
It was a good read, I enjoyed the book it’s characters and the story line was so beautifully written. The snake story was one to bite into but not the whole story. Thank you!!!!
Anytime I read a B.J. Bourg book, I am truly enthralled in it. This one is no different. Now I can't wait for the next one and I hope this series continues on!
I’ve really enjoyed this series and getting to know the characters. Great plot and greataction makes it so easy to read. Looking forward to the next book.
