I like Bubba, I must say. I picked up this book not knowing what to expect and got a pleasant surprise. Bubba is an easy going Texan who finds his ex-fiancé dead on his doorstep. She did him wrong and had no reason to be on Bubba's doorstep so the natural assumption is that Bubba did the killing.  It's up to Bubba to find the killer and prove himself innocent.I love Joan Hess' Maggody series and if I had to compare this series to any, it would be that. You have Bubba who is a bit smarter than he acts and the quirky characters that are so endearingly well rounded that you can't help but pulled into their lives.  Mrs. D., Bubba's mom is a true character and simply a lot of fun to read....and she's just one of many. I bought the next book immediately after finishing this one "Bubba and the 12 Days of Christmas" and enjoyed that one just as much. I'm now reading "Bubba and the Missing Woman" and have to say, this series is just getting better.
