I received an ecopy of this book from LibraryThing in exchange for a review.

The writing style of Richard Adamson in “Blues of Autumn” was thoroughly entertaining. Set in a small Adirondack one-cop town, Chief of Police Tanager finds himself looking for petty criminals like yarn nappers, which is fine with him. His experience as a Detective in a big city left him more than happy to settle for small town life.
But when murder finds his small part of paradise, Tanager uses his wit and his wits to solve the crimes. I’ll definitely keep my eyes peeled for the next Tanager story.… (altro)

Oh, I really liked this one. I've recently been reading the Longmire series and there is a little bit of a resemblance, but it's totally different in terms of location (small town Adirondacks), which makes it a much different story but still as enjoyable. Tanager is likable, the story reads fast, the end has a bit of a twist and the writing style is spot on with enough humor to make it enjoyable for hammock reading. Please make this a series!

I've mixed feelings on this book. On the one hand the story is an easy, fluid read with an interesting plot, a few surprises, and characters who while not quite fully developed have enough going for them to be fleshed out further in coming episodes should there be any. However I'm afraid I won't be searching out those further episodes. The thing that really put me off was the style. The 'buddy boy', smart-assed, sexist, wise-cracking line of humour is just not me, and it annoyed me all through the book. I realise I'm probably not this book's target audience, but I'm also not the only one to make this comment. I can't ask an author to change his style and approach just for a few readers, so I wish Richard Adamson well in future endeavours.… (altro)

I received this book through LT Early Reviewers and had a great time. I liked the plot, which was very entertaining, and the Adirondack setting. But what I enjoyed most was the main character, who has the type of humor I like very much, making me laugh out loud at times. It was quick and entertaining and I will definitely look out for Police Chief Tanager's next adventure!
