I really enjoyed it. It is by a Minnesota Author and set in Savage.

I love how it starts:

It was the kind of spring morning birders dream about.
Clear.

Warm.
Not a breeze ruffling the new leaves on the tress.
Warblers everywhere, singing, darting.

Okay, maybe that part wasn't exactly a birder's dream come true.

When the character gambles he goes to the Little Six Casino, not Vegas.

I want to go back and read the first book now.… (meer)
