Product Description
All Charlie Moon wanted to do was enjoy a night of poker with his best friend and Granite Creek police chief Scott Parris. But that was before Scott’s dispatcher cut in with an emergency call. A man was on the phone with his wife when their call was interrupted by a bloodcurdling scream. Would Charlie and Scott mind checking it out? Arriving on the scene, they discover that the man’s wife, who is the daughter of a wealthy and influential rancher, has been mauled beyond recognition. Is this the work of a hungry bear? Or something far more sinister? The whole family—including the victim’s sister, a popular TV psychic who on that very night happened to “see” a murder happen in real-time—is demanding answers. But if there’s one person who can solve the case, it’s Charlie’s aunt Daisy. She’s an aged Ute shaman whose investigative talents rely heavily on help from the spirit world. Can she see the truth…and help track down a killer?

New Style, Great Read October 26, 2008 I was caught off guard by Doss's new style, but I latched on to it and loved it. A great read, wonderful tongue-in-cheek commentaries on action and characters, and Daisy is still a delightful character, spunky and independant - moreso in this book. Doss has gotten better. His earlier poetic style is here, but not overdone. It was pure pleasure reading this mystery!
Not So Good........ July 21, 2008 Usually I get thru a "Charlie Moon" book in a day or so. Not this one....I had to put it down several times. It's just plain boring. There is way too much about what each character is thinking - not enough interaction between the characters. I hope the next one has a little more action and a LOT more of Aunt Daisy
What' going on? June 26, 2008 I was very excited when the latest Charlie Moon book came out. But reading it was a different matter altogether. The story line was good, as is all the Charlie Moon books, but the writing style has completely changed, and not for the better. It was sometimes difficult to follow with all the author's 'cute' little comments. The style does not go with the story, maybe only because I had come to expect and enjoy the original writing style. I can only hope future Charlie Moon volumes will be back in the original, enjoyable style, otherwise, I don't believe I can keep wading through the extraneous to get to the real story.
Wonderful Book March 11, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Three Sisters (Charlie Moon Mysteries) Kept me turning the pages, when is the next book in the series coming out?
very disappointing February 26, 2008 I must agree with the other reviewers, questioning what happened to his previous style. This book deserves NO STARS - it borders on asinine - definitely too silly when it comes to some of the Aunt Daisy sections. If Doss doesn't return to his widely admired style, I guess he will lose a lot of readers. Many pages/paragraphs I simply skimmed to avoid the stupidity of the situations. Bad News! Is he having medical problems? Senility? What????
