Boystown 6: From The Ashes

De: Marshall Thornton

Narrado por: Brad Langer

The most unlikely person in the world asks Private Investigator Nick Nowak to investigate the un-suspicious death of a priest. It's winter 1984, Private Investigator Nick Nowak has allowed his life to fall to pieces: he's stopped taking cases, lost his apartment and works as a bartender at a sleazy bar tucked under the El. All he wants to do is lick his wounds after the death of his lover, Detective Bert Harker. But, when the least likely person in the world shows up and asks him to take a new case he finds himself investigating the very un-suspicious heart attack death of a priest. Nick is convinced he's wasting his time until the clues begin to add up to.

This one involves the Catholic Church…

And…
Schoolboys
A death
A murder
A cover up or two
And Nick slowly getting himself back together

My rec? I wish the rest of the series were on audiobook, too. This one was spectacular!

Great series and great narrator

Great depth of character and twisty plot.
Love this series and wish the remaining were audiobooks too.

Nick

I don't know if it's just me, but as soon as I start listening to any of this series I start smiling and thinking of past characters and I know I'm in for another good time and great listen. So many revelations!!! I loved seeing Mrs. Harker slowly changing towards Nick. Tears, laughs, and intrigue. More please. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this story and am giving an honest review. The narrator's voice and expressions brought it all to life.

A Great Read

If you enjoy a plot-driven story and an admirable protagonist then this series is for you. I hope someday to read more like this. Good job!!!!

whole series is great, but this one's my favorite

The Boystown series is more than a mystery series. The author does an amazing job of capturing a time and a place. Amazing narration too. This one has a special place in my heart because of Nick's first encounters with Terry and Father Joseph, two of my favorite characters.

I received a free review copy from the author but a review was not required.
