Description
Tribal policeman Bill Maytubby and Deputy Hannah Bond team up again to solve two gruesome murders in this follow-up to Nail's Crossing
In a driving sleet storm, a farmer has discovered a body snagged on cottonwood roots in the Washita River. Johnston County deputy Hannah Bond realizes it's her elderly friend, Alice. Meanwhile, at the Golden Play Casino, robbers posing as armored-car guards kill a local stickball hero and friend of Chickasaw Lighthorse Police detective Bill Maytubby.
The trail leads through the quarry-scarred Oklahoma badlands to a remote airstrip and a planeload of drugs and untraceable automatic weapons. Also somehow connected are a shady coin-op vending company; a neo-Nazi compound outside Paris, Texas; and a headless janitor in a train-mangled van. As the net tightens, the smugglers get wind of their pursuers and converge on Maytubby and Bond at Greasy Bend Bridge.

An Excellent Book!
A fast paced thriller/police procedural! Better than Nails Crossing, with more humor and better interaction between Bond and Maytubby. I opted to go with the audiobook this time, and I'm glad I did. Bramhall is perfect for the geographical setting and the cast of Texas/Oklahoma characters. The storyline moves very quickly and Bramhall's pace allowed me to follow the action without breaking a nail. I find Bond and Maytubby endearing characters. Bond reminds me of Sheriff Gunderson of Fargo- stoic, no-nonsense, and completely unafraid (if a little bit crazy). Maytubby is intelligent, ingenious, much more personable, and is central to this story. I certainly would not want these two dogged enforcement officers on my tail for some alleged wrongdoing! I really enjoyed Lackey's latest and can't wait for the next installment!

Frankly it was only ok
My mind wandered so much. i did like the narrator. Honesty the book seemed to lack the ability to interest me and not much story line.

Dynamic Duo Deals with Dirty Deeds
I love this series, and I sure do hope that there will be more to come. The descriptions of the atmosphere and towns in Oklahoma (even including drinking from Frankoma pottery cups) are spot on. The close friendship between Chickasaw Lighthorse Police detective Bill Maytubby and Johnston County deputy Hannah Bond is professional, yet close. The respect and care for one another is obvious. Both have their hands tied behind their backs most of the time, but even being warned off the cases, they work circles around the actual police assigned to do the investigations. It's the "care" factor. I also appreciate the unique and mostly clean romance between Bill Maytubby and Jill Milton, an African American woman who works for the Chickasaw Nation as a nutritionist. It is clear that they sleep together, but we are spared any graphic descriptions, instead we're given sweet and funny indications such as "let's just burn the squash". 😂 When Hannah Bond's elderly friend, Alice is found murdered, Hannah can't figure out who would want to kill her. Then when Bill Maytubby responds to a murder and robbery at the tribal casino, he learns that a good friend has been murdered leaving a wife and children behind. But the setup wasn't what it was made out to be. It wasn't armored car guards at all. I laughed at Maytubby's disguises as he pursured the killers. The investigation led him all over the place. Excellent mystery and hair-raising conclusion!

These books are great
Lackey writes interesting characters who are likable and living if very different circumstances from most of us. His stories are interesting, and his descriptions are vivid without being over long. Very enjoyable.

It's the OK Corral at Greasy Bend! Action-packed!
Greasy Bend, Kris Lackey's second book in the Chickasaw Nation Mysteries, is an action-packed thrill a minute mystery that keeps you glued to your seat from the first word to the last. Kris Lackey once again starts the novel with a series of random horrific murders . At first glance, it appears that the crimes can't be related. But the determined Indian Nation cops, Hannah and Bill Maytubby, soon prove otherwise.
This story has so many players and so many twists and turns it seems convoluted and difficult to follow. Greasy Bend is not a good book on tape to listen to while driving. Greasy Bend requires the listener's full attention if you are going to follow all the action. I have missed turn-offs and have rewound and restarted this book several times before I finally felt I could get the gist of this plot! I threatened to pull over and take out a notebook to write down all the players in order to keep everyone straight!
However, once you get to the midpoint of the story, you never want to stop listening. There are bad guys galore , the Indians are outnumbered but never outsmarted, and the final shootout on Greasy Bend bridge rivals the shootout at the OK Coral!
I keep thinking I won't continue the series as it is not my usual light- hearted escape story. But then I start wondering about Bill Maytubby and if he is going to marry his fiance, Jill. And will Hannah ever get beyond speed traps ? And I find myself using my credits to order the next book. I guess I can't resist a good Indian tribal cop mystery!

NOT ENOUGH SUBSTANCE
Maybe it was the narrator.
Maybe it was the sory itself.
Either way, it just did not hold my attention.

Performance
I haven’t finished the book yet, but I have started it over 3 times :D I just love the sound of Mark Bramhall’s voice! To me it’s so calming and comforting. It’s like a warm hug. The story is good as well ;)

Amazing story
Terrific Author, finally an author who doesn’t think every crime mystery must bet set in New York or Los Angeles.

So good
I wish there were more Kris Lackey novels. The three I have read are well written and worth a reread.
Reminds me of Longmire series
