Goodbye Lake Street: Totally Addictive Crime Fiction (A DC Holly Towns Murder Mystery)

De: Anne Shillolo

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

A fanatical group of vigilantes. One local police unit. One international task force. An ex-con with a grudge… Plus a child abduction. It all adds up to a nightmare.

Police and a secret group of citizen investigators are locked in a battle for child safety, and Detective Constable Holly Towns finds herself trapped between the two.

Holly is paired with a new detective from the Sex Crimes Unit. Detective Danny Cavallo is working with a cross-border task force on human trafficking. And reporter Missy McLaren swears that the underground vigilante crew has the answers.

But Holly distrusts the group and its criminal history, and when an explosive takedown rocks the city with accusations and the promise of more violence, she becomes even more convinced that the truth lies hidden elsewhere.

Can her notorious combination of hard work and off-beat intuition pay off before the kidnapper circles back to claim victory?

If you like complex characters, twisty plots, and a fast-paced story, the Goodbye… series is for you.

First, let me say how much I HATE most Virtual Voice audiobooks but these Holly Towns Canadian mysteries are actually very good. The Virtual Voice does have a few mispronunciations but they're not very annoying. The author is refreshingly clean in a world of books with the F-word in every paragraph. These books have a mild romantic background story that carries thru every book, which I prefer. They're clean, non-offensive and entertainingly pleasant listening. Nobody gets dismembered and no sickening descriptions of violent beatings. I usually only listen to modern British/Scottish/Irish murder mysteries with excellent human voice narration (think Angus King) so this is rare praise, coming from me. If you've been resisting Virtual Voice books, as I have, I urge you to give these a try. And right now, they're almost all free (only one requires a credit) so you're not risking anything by trying one!
