Audiobook Review: Liar's Creek (Clay Hawkins #1) by Matt Goldman; Narrated by Fred Berman


Blurb from Goodreads:
Riverwood, Minnesota is a scenic town threaded with trout streams carving their way through limestone bluffs. But beneath its picturesque facade, danger runs rampant.

Clay Hawkins isn’t a stranger to the secrets of his hometown. After twenty years away, Clay has recently returned home from abroad with his twelve-year-old son, and his relationship with his father, the recently replaced sheriff, is as strained as ever.

But when Clay’s beloved uncle disappears, the three generations of Hawkinses must overturn every stone in Riverwood and confront deep familial wounds to find the one person who brings them together. As danger looms, Clay worries that it might be too late to save his uncle—and that the rest of the family might be next.
 
I enjoyed this a lot and am looking forward to more from this series.  The characters were nuanced and the story was fairly interesting.  I enjoyed the narrator. Give this a try!

Liar's Creek comes out next week on April 21, 2026 and you can purchase HERE.  
Riverwood, Minnesota, has four stoplights, two beauty salons, nine bars, one barber shop, seven restaurants, one Center for the Arts, two hardware stores, one bakery, one police station, three auto repair shops, and one missing person.
It also has a handful of salmon—salmon being the nickname for residents who leave Riverwood only to return years later. One of those salmon is Clay Hawkins. Clay was gone for twenty-four years and did quite well for himself, so it's a bit odd that he moved back three months ago. But Clay has his reasons. One of them is riding shotgun in Clay's F-150 as he navigates the narrow winding roads and one-lane bridges of Fillmore County. His son, Braedon, is twelve years old and looks a little too much like his mother for Clay's comfort. Blue eyes and fair skin and black hair that glistens red when the sun hits it just right.

Conversations With Myself (& Hopefully You): Should There Be ARCs?

First of all, thank you SO much for reading my very first "discussion" post .  The response was so amazing and I am so grateful to each and every one of you that took the time to read it.  I would like to preface my next discussion post in the same way -- nothing is new and I'm sure that this topic has been discussed by someone, somewhere but this is what is on my mind: SHOULD THERE BE ARCs? Truly, not everything I think about and write about is regarding Maggie Stiefvater's epic series, The Raven Cycle , but it just so happens that this discussion post will mention this series, too.   Those of us that are obsessed with this series (like me) know that there will not be any ARCs for the highly (HIGHLY) anticipated last book of this series, The Raven King . There will be no ARCs (advanced reader copies). Y'all are just going to have to trust me. https://t.co/xYDv0q1tXN — Maggie Stiefvater (@mstiefvater) December 5, 2015 Oddly, I think this ...
