About this listen

Ron Hansen has won an Award in Literature from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters for his rich writing and poetic style. Atticus begins in the vein of a contemporary western. As it unfolds, it includes an intriguing murder mystery and a dramatic parable of the prodigal son. For years, prosperous Colorado rancher Atticus Cody has tried to understand his rootless son, Scott, who is now living a marginal life in Mexico. When he learns that Scott is dead, apparently by suicide, Atticus travels to Mexico to claim the body. Instead, he discovers evidence of murder and a trail of clues that will lead him to a strange and wonderful epiphany. Suspense and conflict, love and forgiveness combine in this deft story of Atticus’ search for his son. Each character stands out, sharply etched, against the bright Mexican landscape.

Surprised this book has no reviews. I thought it was a good listen. Ed Sala could read the phone book and it would sound interesting!
I liked listening to a book about a fathers love for his son and I found the murder mystery well told and intriguingly revealed.

Well written well read and interesting
