Audiobook (All of my entries on The Story Graph are audiobooks.)
#2 in series (I started reading this series in October 2022.)
Will I read other installments?Probably Not Maybe Definitely I will continue with this series. The books are quick and action packed with just enough emotional depth. This was a story about blackmail and murder.
Comparison to others in series: Not as goodAbout the same Better This was good and kept you guessing, but book one was better.
The narrator was Alan Sklar. He didn't seem quite right for this book.

The dialogue reminded me a lot of Brick (which makes sense, I suppose, seeing as they're both in the noir genre), and while I don't think the mystery itself was the greatest I've read, it was still quite good and the rest of the book surely made up for it.
