Moonlight Kills

Dick Moonlight PI, Book 7

De: Vincent Zandri

Narrado por: Daniel Dorse

Hollywood is just another word for Hell on Earth!

When Dick Moonlight PI and his professional impersonator sidekick, Fat Elvis, uncover the head of a decapitated, long blond-haired woman under the floorboards of an under-construction luxury home, they come into contact with a husband-and-wife construction team who also fancy themselves Hollywood filmmakers. Only, it turns out that the filmmakers aren’t interested in making romcoms, but instead, snuff films.

With Fat Elvis the perfect candidate for a starring role in their new film, Moonlight is hired by the police to go undercover and expose the snuff film operation which, it turns out, is also partly financed by Mexican drug cartel gang members. The stakes and the body count in this hard-boiled thriller are higher than a box office smash hit, and far more deadly.

For fans of Joe R. Landsdale, Michael Connelly, Ace Atkins, Robert B. Parker, and more, New York Times and USA Today bestselling ITW Thriller and PWA Shamus Award-winning author Vincent Zandri delivers another novel in the gritty, fast-paced Dick Moonlight PI series that promises to keep you up all night.

Will Dick & Fat Elvis live through the movies?

Will Moonlight and Fat Elvis become movie stars? Will it be more lucrative than stealing flooring? From start to finish this Dick Moonlight episode had me intrigued and fully entertained. To say some parts of the story were surprising would be an understatement. However, to find out what those surprises are you need to read or listen to Moonlight Kills for yourself. Speaking of listening, Daniel dorse is back on narrator duty in this book, and once again he does a masterful job of bringing the story and each character to life. If you enjoy hard-boiled pulp PI stores, you owe it to yourself to read the Dick Moonlight stories, however, Start with Moonlight Falls and work your way through them in sequence. I’ve been learning from experience that while each story works as standalone, there are small details that underlay these stories that show up when reading in sequence.

good original story

Audiobook review:
This book is hard core crime fiction with political statements. It is not for everyone. I found the story interesting as it dealt with snuff films, gangs, and deceitful people. The murder was gruesome and the film details were very graphic. I like Moonlight, he is flawed but likeable.

I thought the narrator was perfect for this audible book.
