good

This was suspenseful and the action at the end was rapid fire. I liked that it had some resolution, but now I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop. Evil never dies it just hides really well!!! I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a great job bringing it to life.

Alright Story, not as good as first 2 in Series

I was disappointed that this 3rd book was no where near as exciting as the first 2 books. I am hoping that the next book is back up to par with the original 2 books. Narrator does a good job with the various characters voices and the entire storyline.

Careful What You Say

Telling his mates how he beat the bookies is overheard by the wrong people. It puts him in harms way and possible death if Claire can't find him in time. Claire develops a relationship with Peter. Grant Love did a great job with the narration.

Interesting book

It was a interesting listen with all that he goes thru to get what he owed.

great detective story

I love listening to these stories and seeing how they unfold it's a great diversion
