Lady Justice and the Mob

By: Robert Thornhill

Narrated by: George Kuch

In Volume 45, it seems that Walt is fighting one battle after another with the mob.

First, Walt is dragged into the political arena to oppose a candidate for city council with ties to the Russian mob.

The moment that problem is resolved, Walt receives a frantic plea from Carmine Marchetti, the godfather of the Kansas City mafia, asking him to help fend off mobsters from Chicago who have come to take control of his operation.

Reluctantly, Walt agrees to help Carmine, unaware that his assistance will result in heart-wrenching tragedy for himself and his family.

Loved it

The author provided me with a complimentary copy of this audiobook with no expectation of a review. This book was jam packed with action. There's a major twist late in the book that turns someone into a vigilante. I'm looking forward to the next book to see where things go from here.

different than usual

family, family-dynamics, law-enforcement, grief, grieving, senior-citizens, private-investigators, the-mob, multigenerational, murder, murder-investigation, friendship, sardonic, serial-murder, situational-humor, stalker, support-system, survivor's guilt*****

I can't believe that it's been this long since I first met Walt and the cast of many! But even if it was the first, I wouldn't have felt lost, only nosy to see what I might have missed laughing with . This one has more action topics than most: an invite into city politics, the local mob, the Chicago mob, the Russian mob, tragedy and hilarity. Never a dull moment even though the book is relatively short. It isn't Happy Ever After, but the Good Guys win in the end (thanks be!).
George Kuch continues as the understated, gravelly voiced, excellent narrator.

I’m in shock!!

Still in shock with this book!!! This is a great story and as always love the humor.

Worth the Wait!!!

Lady Justice and the Mob
(Lady Justice #45)
by Robert Thornhill


It has been a while that we have waited for this next Lady Justice book.
It was well worth the wait.

In this edition Walt Williams is convinced he should run for city council. The opposition is backed by the Russian Mob, while Carmine Marchetti and other friends back Walt. Even after Walt drops out of the race he finds himself tangling with the Russians.

There are some unexpected turns that had my jaw dropping to the floor.


The narration was well done. George Kuch is a familiar voice in unfamiliar times. He brought lots of feelings to life in this episode. The characters were well portrayed.

As always looking forward to whatever comes next. Thank You, Bob and George for the entertainment.


I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Fantastic

The 150 Prompt Doctor Who Reading Challenge - Twelfth Doctor - 3) A Good Death: Read A Book Where Death Plays A Central Role.

I really enjoyed this installment, and as there hasn't been a new Lady Justice novel since 2021, it looks like it might be the final novel, and in that case, I think it is a really decent ending. Most of these novels always end positively, like nothing major is going to happen to the main characters, so for the big twist in the novel to happen, it felt quite shocking and honestly, I really hadn't expected it to happen. However, I do think it is one of the best Lady Justice novels that I've read/listened to, but it needs the entire 44 books before it for the novel to have the full emotional impact.
