Publisher's Summary

Elvis Cole, wisecracking private eye, finds himself embroiled in a controversial LA murder case. A wealthy WASP entrepreneur appears to have murdered his wife. A hot-shot defense attorney takes the case and hires Elvis to find proof that the L.A. detective - rumored to be dirty - fooled around with the evidence. But as Elvis investigates, he becomes more suspicious of the media-loving lawyer than the cops. With sidekick Joe Pike and girlfriend Lucy Chenier in tow, Elvis carries the day.

Investigate another case with Elvis Cole and Joe Pike.

    The reader


    Would you be willing to try another one of David Stuart’s performances?

    NO

    disappointment; I've enjoyed the rest of Robert Crais's books and would have probably enjoyed this one.


    Any additional comments?

    "Craise is a good read AND a good listen!"
    What did you love best about Sunset Express?

    I always love the humour in the way Crais writes.


    Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

    ...always has a twist


    Which character ??? as performed by David Stuart ??? was your favorite?

    I can't really pick a favorite... I'm amazed that he can stay in character for so many people!

    "Waste of time"

    I read Robert Crais's book 'Taken' which was fantastic. This book was a huge disappointment. Poor narrator. There are two main woman characters in this novel, it is 'grating' to hear him try and impersonate a southern belle. The ending is ridiculous, leaves you so unsatisfied.In short, don't waste your time.

    "Nasally Narrator!!!"

    I'm not even half way through the book and the sound of this stuffy nose narrator is so annoying! His woman's voice sounds like a deeper more stuffy nosed whine with a lisp! The thing is that the story itself is really good, so I'm continuing on... hand this guy a tissue

    "Narrator and production ruin the book"

    I love Crais books and have listened to/reader almost all by now. The naarator and production of this book are horrible. I could not tell whether the narrator simply felt like all female characters (and some men) needed to speak with a lisp or if the production was so shoddy that it just sounded that way. Avoid this version.

    "I loved this book!"
    Would you listen to Sunset Express again? Why?

    I would listen to this again, and actually am right now with my husband. This book has a great reader and the story is full of action and love and humor, and intrigue through the whole book. Was sorry when it ended.


    Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

    Yes, there were a few plots and they were intertwined through out the book.


    Which scene was your favorite?

    There were many good ones, but I love all the scenes when Joe Pike and Elvis Cole are together, they are a great team and it's fun to listen to their banter.

    "Great Story, Not the Best Narrator"

    Love Robert Crais and he lives up to his precedent in this book. The performer does fine with fluency and voices, but he has an obvious lisp, which makes Elvis sound a bit fey. It just doesn't fit the character. Still worth listening to for the story, which is quite good.
