The Last Beat

A Jon Marzett Adventure

By: Bruno Miller

Narrated by: B.J. Harrison

After years of working the streets of Miami, veteran detective Jon Marzett craves a quieter life. Taking a job as sheriff in the sleepy town of Big Pine Key seems like the perfect place to wind down his career.

But the town harbors dark secrets, and corruption festers deep below the surface of what seems like paradise. Jon soon finds himself thrust into a battle against a powerful cartel determined to maintain its grip on his new hometown.

With his loyal dog, Max, by his side and the help of his sharp-witted deputy, Alvarez, Jon uncovers a dangerous web of violence and betrayal that reaches far beyond the peaceful facade of Big Pine Key. Each step closer to the truth brings him face-to-face with ruthless enemies who will stop at nothing to protect their empire.

As the stakes rise, Jon is forced to confront his past and push the limits of his resolve in a fight that could cost him everything. Caught between the life he wants and the battle he can’t walk away from, Jon must decide how far he’s willing to go to protect the people of Big Pine Key—and whether peace is something he’ll ever truly find.

Too many gun fights

How many BAD GUYS get shot with so little damage to good guys

Make believe is too much

Action packed police mystery

Bruno Miller writes a great police mystery with great action and well thought out characters and plot. Loved the narration by BJ Harrison.

There's a new sheriff in town!

This was a nice blend of adventure, thriller and a little bit of cozy. I loved the setting. Jon is the new sheriff in town. Unbeknownst to him, there's corruption in the department, and town. who can he trust? especially those that he will be working closely with. There's characters you will love and characters you will love to hate. It's an uphill battle reaching far and wide.

This is my favorite narrator! He can do any voices and never disappoints.

solidity of characters.

the action wasn't super predictable so it held my interest. you will enjoy it. Just a little bit gory.

the last beat

I had a hard time with this book it started good but the characters lacked depth, it was predictable and I hated the end nonsense
