Baby, Would I Lie

De: Donald E. Westlake

Narrado por: Donald E. Westlake

Intrepid reporter Sara Joslyn, having escaped the clutches of the supermarket tabloid Weekly Galaxy, is finally going to be allowed to practice "clean journalism." Unfortunately, intrepid editor Jack Ingersoll has other plans, assigning her to a gory sex-murder trial in Branson, Missouri, home to more country stars than there are in the heavens.

While delving into the muck, rake in hand, Sara runs into her old comrades from the Galaxy - Binx Radwell, Boy Cartwright, and the Down Under Trio among them. At the eye of this journalistic cyclone is country musician Ray Jones; is he guilty of the grisly murder, and what else is he up to, if anything?

The lyrics to eleven Ray Jones hits are sprinkled throughout the novel and are an important accompaniment to the proceedings, if only Sara and Jack can keep their fingers out of their ears long enough to hear it....

Have heard better

What disappointed you about Baby, Would I Lie?

I have listen to Westlake's stories on cassettes and loved them. Couldn't tell when one person stopped talking and another one started. Got confused who was who, might be good story but ill have to read it to find out. Not sure I would pay for it again.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Didn't get that far.

What didn’t you like about Donald E. Westlake’s performance?

You should hire a professional to read book. Makes a big difference.
