Longmire meets Yellowstone in the 1970s in the latest novel by bestselling author Baron Birtcher.
The latest installment in Birtcher's critically acclaimed Ty Dawson mystery series, Knife River is a taut, tense, and tantalizing tale. The series, which has drawn favorable comparisons to such esteemed literary luminaries as Elmore Leonard, James Lee Burke, and Larry McMurtry, features Korean War veteran, rancher, and small town sheriff Ty Dawson.
In Knife River, a sharp, seamless, and suspenseful crime thriller, Dawson fights to keep the peace in 1970s Oregon while facing a long-buried secret from his town's past.
About Knife River: Sheriff Ty Dawson is called upon to investigate the illegal hunting of bald eagles, and a suspicious death discovered after the unwelcome return of an infamous town scion, whose presence incites old hostilities in a town where nearly everyone has a motive.
Meridian's former son has returned-now famous and successful-to record his band's third album, to be followed by a celebratory concert to feature his new music, and to be filmed for theatrical release. Despite Dawson's attempts to dissuade them, the concert proceeds as scheduled. But tragedy strikes unexpectedly. And as Sheriff Ty Dawson sifts through the legions of suspects with a motive to kill, he uncovers a long-buried story that threatens to shatter the underpinnings of a small American town.
Beautifully written, masterfully plotted, atmospheric and cinematic, Knife River is a riveting tale that unfolds against the richly-drawn landscape of the rural West. Resplendent with elegance and grit, told with wisdom and honesty, and crafted with a brilliantly rendered historical backdrop, Knife River is an extraordinary, engaging, exquisite crime thriller.

“Small town secrets and deception combine in Birtcher's Knife River. His familiar lyrical prose pulls the reader in, and characters with heart bring it home. Knife River is a must-read.” -James L'Etoile, award-winning author of the Detective Emily Hunter series
