Bitter Roots by C.J. Carmichael Book Summary

Bitter Roots (Book 1 of Bitter Root Mysteries)

Murder in a small town is always personal.

Dispatcher Zak Waller prefers working behind the scenes in the Sheriff’s Office of Lost Trail, Montana, but when a newcomer to the sparsely populated town is brutally murdered—and the Sheriff is quick to pin the death on an unknown outsider—Zak starts his own private sleuthing.

On the surface Lost Trail is a picture-perfect western town, offering a simple way of life revolving around the local ranches and ski hill. But almost everyone has a secret to protect, and no one knows that more than Zak. He’s part of a younger generation hoping to revitalize the town. But evil has dug in deeper than he knows.

Perfect for fans of the British television film, Broadchurch.

Interesting book series. The Bitter Root series is an exceptionally interesting and well written series. The characters are so real I feel like I know them, and the fictional town is one I’d like to visit! The stories are realistic, intelligent, and easily flow from one book to the next. The plots are well thought out. I hope there are additional books in the series! In my opinion as good as C.J. Box and John Grissom.

Bitter Roots.. I Love All the characters in town. Cannot wait to get into #. 2. Great mystery. No clue til the last bit of story.

New Families. Very thorough characterizations and a wonderful twist or two? at the end. Can't wait for #2.

Intriguing to the rnd. I’d love to see this series play out on tv. I think it’s going to be one that, if fine well, will really develop and get under your skin. Zak was my favorite character, and I’m curious to see how he develops. I confess I usually figure out the end before the MCs in these types of books, but I didn’t thus time. Great characters. Good mystery. Subtle and not action packed. But the heart is in the town and it’s people.

Bitter Roots. I really liked this book. It is a very good who done it book. I can normally pick the person or people out before the end of the book. I couldn’t with this one.

Bitter Truth. Set in a mountain town, with good people. A good rad, too bad it wasn’t one whole book. Don’t like to keep having to buy a bunch of small books to get the story finished. But I would like to know the ending. A good read.

Bitter Roots. This twisted murder mystery is well written and will leave the reader wondering until the end.

PAGE TURNER. Very well written and characters were interesting people. Would have liked to have known some of them. Author was descriptive without going overboard. This was a book that I’ve virtually read every word. Quite a few twists and turns, therefore, I was happy that I was not able to figure this one out. Came close though. I will look into reading the other two books to this series.

Good book. Very good book

Returning home. I loved reading this incredible story with a young woman returning home and one of her friends being a sheriff’s department dispatcher. They both end up solving different mysteries.

First in series free books. I got this in iBooks under the free section, and loved it! It’s a sweet small town with intriguing characters-each with their own little stories happening around the main mystery. It was a surprise who-done-it at the end. Now on to buy and start book 2! Can’t wait to keep up with these characters and their lives. Read it, and you’ll likely want more too.

Overlapping stories well played together.. + Multiple characters woven together for a tight small town read

Bitter Roots. Well written and held my interest through the entire story. I liked how the characters’ stories entertained and pulled together at the end. I loved that I couldn’t guess the ending, although I tried! An entertaining read!

Bitter Roots. Kept me on my toes for sure....wonderful story.

Bitter Roots. Total page turner. Very entertaining. Not trashy. Glad I gave it a go.

Bitter Roots. I found it to be an interesting suspense novel Looking forward to reading the next book.

Very captivating. Great book

Awesome Reaf. I enjoyed every age of this book!! My mind was all over the place trying to figure out the culprit!!! Kept me on my toes and really put me in Zac’s mind and thoughts!!!

Bitter Roots. Good read. Story moved quickly and kept me, the reader, interested from start to finish. Only down side, would have been nice to have more closing information on Willow.

Enjoyable Reading. This is a must read boot about a small town with a lot going on. Hard to put the book down. Really makes you wish you had lived in the town.

Bitter roots. Really enjoyed reading this book.

Intriguing story. I read too many mysteries. I usually have a good idea who the killer is and who isn’t. It was no surprise the mgr. was innocent but the killer came out of nowhere. Good story.

Great book. Really enjoyed this book and I always wanted to keep on reading. Such a cozy book and I had not suspected that ending to the mystery. Definitely recommend.

A Hallmark Movie. Simple story with predictable ending.. much like a Hallmark movie

Lots of twists & turns. This story is very relatable to the location in Montana and the rural way of life. Follow the twists & turns as suspects come & go thru the story. The ending will surprise you ! !

Bitter roots. Interesting characters! Enjoyed reading the book, hope to read ,ore of hers!

Bitter Roots. Another wonderful book great characters and story line! I would sure share this book with others. Thanks k

Boring. And ties up way too easily at the end

bitter roots. I am on page 135 and still no plot.

Bitter Roots. Really great reading!!!!!

Bitter Roots. Great characters, suspenseful, fast moving.

Bitter roots. A very intriguing book that I had a hard time putting down. Murder, mystery and a suggestion of romance. What more can you want.

Great book. I enjoyed this book!!

Great book. Loved the book. Ready for 2nd in the series!

Different. This was a different type of mystery book than I’m used to reading. I liked it though and it was certainly nice to have a murder mystery and no wild sex involved. The last chapter and epilogue put a nice little bow on everything at the end. Good job.

Bitter Roots. A good read. Keeps your interest. Characters are believable. Ending keeps you looking for more.

A definite page turner!. Zak Waller is happy being the dispatcher for the sheriffs office in Lost Trails, Montana. When a young woman is found murdered the sheriff is quick to try to pin it on someone from her past. Tiff Masterson comes home unannounced to find a stranger living in the family's guest house and running the Christmas tree farm. When she finds out that one of there temporary employees was killed she starts investigating with Zak. I usually don't read mysteries but Bitter Roots by C.J. Carmichael has changed that for me. I couldn't stop turning the pages to see who the killer was. I can't wait to read the rest of the series.

Great Ending. After reading all the other ones I really did enjoy this one especially the ending 👍.Guess that means no #5? 😔Makes you want to know where everyone goes from here.What about Tiff & Kenny , Rosemary & Sybil? Can’t just leave us hanging C.J.!!😢😒 Tweety 🦜

Bitter Roots. Wonderful true to life storyline, relatable characters a delightful read. Just when you think you have it figured out, you don’t. Give it a try you’ll be glad you did, I am.

Bitter Roots. I loved this mystery. I was enthralled right up to the end. Tiff is back in Lost Trail, MT after her life in Seattle crashed and burned. Zak is her high school friend, and dispatcher at the sheriff's office. Drama hits the small town when Riley, a newcomer to town who works at Tiff's family's tree farm, is found murdered in town. Zak and Tiff find themselves in the middle of solving the crime. The cast of characters was great. I was in suspense right up until the end. I had many of my own theories about the murder, but this book was so well written that I couldn't be confident about any of them. There were several strong possibilities. I enjoyed the closure at the end, finally learning who killed Riley and the motivation behind it. Great story!

Bitter Roots. The characters were great! I didn’t solve the mystery until I was almost to the end of the book.

BitterRoots. Wonderful small town mystery with many side storylines. It really held my interest without a lot of blood and gore talk.

Bittersweet page turner. Despite the saccharine aspect of some of the authors attempt to pull on the heart strings a bit much, This was an entertaining and involving story with a surprising conclusion.

Bitter root. Excellent reading!!!

Challenging!. It so impressing! You have to read so fast the changing of happenings. I like it!

A very nice read. Plot is intriguing. Most of the characters are usually quiet citizens of this quaint small town in Montana. But when a person who is new to the town is murdered then the two main characters go into action and provide a great murder mystery.

Great Read!. This is excellent beach reading. The plot is clever. The characters interesting. The writing good. (Found two typos!) it’s not going to change your life, but it’s definitely worth reading for fun.

Bitter Roots. Loved the book. Kept me guessing on who did it. I for once didn’t figure it out. Loved the characters can’t wait to read more books by this author. I do recommend it to anyone liking a book to read.

Bitter roots. This book kept me turning page after page. Really enjoyed the development of each character , and kept me trying to solve the mystery.

Bitter Roots. Lovely story by C.J. Carmichael. Plot development was excellent and steady as it carried the reader to the answers the reader was entertaining in their mind through every page right up to the end. Characters were made real to the reader and before the end felt like family. Definitely a good work by Carmichael and I highly recommend it as a must read and am sure will be enjoyed as much as I did. I am not on to the next one in the series. I suspect judging by this book the next one will be equally as good if not even better as by the next one in the series the reader will be following the same characters but with a new plot that no doubt will be as good as Bitter Roots was.

bitter roots. nice reading and good plot👍

Bitter Roots. A real page turner . I am a fan of the TV series Broadchurch and I thoroughly enjoyed this book .

Cuts off. The ebook i downloaded stops abruptly at the end of alot of the chapters and usually in the middle of a sentence

Bitter Roots. The story is similar to a Miss Marple. Very twisted data in the beginning and many misdirections. Unlike the Miss Marple series this one smooths out and the connections between the facts and circumstances begin to establish. The mystery is solved but the characters lives are unresolved.

Good read. Enjoyable characters, great plot line.
