Blues in the Night

Molly Blume #1

De: Rochelle Krich

Narrado por: Deanna Hurst

An unidentified woman in a nightgown is the victim of a hit-and-run accident on Mulholland Drive that leaves her unconscious and seriously injured.

The image of the young woman stumbling along a dark, winding road is one true-crime writer Molly Blume cannot shake. It draws her to a bedside in intensive care, where, before dying, the victim whispers three names: Robbie, Max, and Nina. It's not a smoking gun, but it is sufficient enough to reinforce Molly's gut instinct that there are sinister circumstances behind the assault on Lenore Saunders.

With fearless conviction, Molly asks questions that nobody - including Lenore's mom, her ex-husband, her shrink, or even Molly's LAPD buddy, Detective Connors - wants to answer. Nevertheless, the astute Molly discovers Lenore lived a fractured life, so different from Molly's own secure and loving Orthodox Jewish background. And as a chilling picture of the unfortunate woman begins to take shape, the menace of murders past and present stirs and quickens.

Good Old Fashion Crime Beat

I love this narrator as her male voices and characters are pleasant for me to listen. The 80% is off members sale lets me enjoy all kinds of authors and this series is delightful so far.
If you love Yiddish influenced stories, this is a good one. If you have not had the opportunity, and you love intelligent crime beat investigations then this is for you. Wholesome is not the correct adjective but frankly this was good old fashioned storytelling that effluences.
Were my comments of help?

Ok who done it - entertaining

Worth getting and giving it a listen.

Refreshing

This was a good story that moved along quickly, aided by wit and charm. The basic good character and cheerful disposition of the heroine and her family were contrasted nicely against the crimes that were reported as part of the background. While I didn't bite my nails in suspense, I was thoroughly entertained and will seek other offerings from this writer.

Back drop

I felt there was too much "Jewish" background that kept coming to the foreground and disrupting the flow of the story. I also felt the romance aspects took over the mystery too often

Blues in the Night

This book was a little different then what I usually listen to, but, it was a good book. Kept you guessing until the end who the murderer really was. I would recommend this as a good listen.
