A 5 star short read

Branded in Bismarck: Capital City Murders Book #7, my eleventh read from author Troy Lambert. After reading Silenced in Salt Lake: Capital City Murders Book #1, my first read from author Troy Lambert, I wanted to read more in the series and this one doesn't disappoint. As always, Joseph L. Stevenson's narration adds to the book's enjoyment. I look forward to reading more in this series & from this author. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

Baskerville Book Reviews

Since this is the second book in a row where Interesting Protagonist is starting to get a little interesting, I think he has earned a name. I think Shaggy because he’s skinny and tall, but mostly because these books remind me of Scooby-Doo mysteries.

I noticed a lot of attention to detail in book 7, maybe it was there previously, but I’ve never taken note of it. Though I still remember Shaggy’s 50 MB SSD or whatever it was from book 1. In one instance, Shaggy internally corrects somebody who refers to photographs as pictures. So I later found it stupid that he referred to a news clip as “film”. Who the hell is using film in the modern-day age? Another instance of this anachronistic and antiquated dialogue was a few books back when he mentioned “rewinding” a digital video. Other instances of outdated language in these books, make the writing sound sloppy.

I think the writers are doing a better job of mixing Shaggy’s personal life with the mystery. The mystery doesn’t occupy the entire story, nor does it just show up and resolve itself like it did in one of the previous books.

Overall, the narrator did a good enough job. He’s not going to win any awards for this narration and if he does, he should give them back. But overall, it was a passable job.

Another adventure for Nick

This was another great mystery for Nick to get involved. No matter how he might not want to get involved, Nick cannot help it. Being able to see things qhen looking at crime scenes, will he be able to help solve the mystery? Need to listen to find out. I received a copy for an honest review.

Nick solves another murder!

This was a bit different than the prior books in the series! The murder weapon was not a normal weapon that would be expected! Nick figured out the reason behind how the murder was caused! Great storyline and Joseph Stevenson has the perfect voice to narrate this story! I would certainly recommend this book!
