( ) A fast-paced whodunit featuring a newspaper reporter as investigator. A quadruple assasin-style murder in a Newark ghetto leads Carter Ross to meet some of the local denizens: a hooker, gang members, and homeless alcoholic. He treats them respectfully and they respond. A little romance interest on the side, but no action there. His assistant intern is is gay & enjoys ribbing Carter about his lifestyle. Audiobook read in a flat male voice reminiscent of Perry Mason TV show narrator--likely a deliberate style to fit the genre. I was a little disappointed with this installment. The good news is that the series does get better since I read the second book first and this one is the start of the series:) I also didn't find the mystery to be a strong as it was in the second book. It's readable and does have action and intrigue but I was just expecting a bit more. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Four bodies, each with a single bullet wound in the back of the head, stacked like cordwood in a weed-choked vacant lot. That's the front-page news facing Carter Ross, investigative reporter with the Newark Eagle-Examiner. The victims--an exotic dancer, a drug dealer, a hustler, and a mama's boy--came from different parts of the city and didn't seem to know one another. The police, eager to calm jittery residents, leak a theory that the murders are revenge for a bar stickup. Determined to uncover the true story, Carter enlists the aide of city editor Tina Thompson to run interference at the office; gay Cuban intern Tommy Hernandez to help him with legwork on the streets; and stripper Tynesha Dales to take him to Newark's underside. It turns out that the four victims have one connection after all, and this knowledge will put Carter on the path of one very ambitious killer. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
