Bury Me When I'm Dead

The Charlie Mack Motown Mystery Series, Book 1

Charlene “Charlie” Mack is a PI in Detroit, born and raised in the city that America forgot.

Charlie has built a highly respected private investigations firm through hard work, smart choices, and relentless ambition. Her team of investigators are highly skilled and trustworthy—but she secretly struggles with her sexual orientation and a mother with early-onset Alzheimer’s.

When Charlie and her crack team head to Birmingham, Alabama, following the trail of a missing person, what should be a routine case turns into a complex chase for answers. Shady locals and a southern patriarch with dark secrets dating back forty years obscure their path. It seems like everyone has something to hide, including Charlie. When the case turns deadly with a double murder and Charlie is attacked on a quiet neighborhood street, everything suddenly becomes personal. Who can Charlie trust, and will she ever solve the riddles of the Magic City?

Solid, Interesting Tale

Head clearly has a gift for weaving a tale, and this one with a surprising twist. Appreciated that the narrator didn’t overly act. My preference is to hear the reading. The voices of different characters were not over the top. In other words, not as much performance. And for that, I’m grateful. I look forward to the other Mack books.

Not too bad!!

narration was horrible, could hear narrator either chewing gum or swallowing a lot!!! storyline left a bit to desire.

Flat narration

The story was pretty decent, but the narrator was flat and unemotional. It was worth the credit though.
