Jinkies! We read a mystery and, boy, was it a doozy. There’s homicidal rage, alcoholism and then at some point, we actually got around to discussing the book.

Attica Locke’s Bluebird, Bluebird takes readers into the heart of a small rural Texas town where two murders have shaken up the local community. Listen in for a passionate discussion involving dumb criminals, court procedures and Scooby-Doo.

The first part of our discussion is spoiler-free. So listen in and be sure to check out Bluebird, Bluebird, which was released Sept. 12. Spoilers begin at the 38-minute mark.
