The Deep Blue Alibi

A Solomon vs. Lord Novel

De: Paul Levine

Narrado por: William Dufris

They are Florida's most mismatched legal duo: one a glamorous Miami blue blood, the other a Coconut Grove beach bum. And when they get together, you can throw every law right out the window.

What do you get when you mix beautiful people, family secrets, and a yacht washed up on Sunset Key with a hundred grand in cash and a dying man? Steve Solomon sees a case that can get Solomon & Lord off the ground. But Victoria Lord spies a golden opportunity to go out on her own. With her uncle as a murder suspect and her hunky ex-boyfriend back in the picture, Victoria is pushing to take control as Solomon struggles to keep from losing it. And as an explosive trial looms, they're fighting against time, the law, and each other to expose a killer who came to paradise and hasn't left.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Plenty of quirky characters and witty banter between Steve and Victoria." ( Publishers Weekly)

Try the original

When I read "Solomon vs Lord", Paul Levine's first audio book, I laughed out loud at the clever, witty banter between the 2 main characters. I was really looking forward this novel, but frankly I was somewhat disappointed. I know why - the narrator is different. While this book is good, Christopher Lane (who narrated the first novel) did a much better job with the sharp, back and forth banter than this narrator. Good book, but it could have been alot better.

Intricate, interesting plot, but....

The plot has lots of twists and mostly holds together. The dialogue is snappy and amusing, though not as good as in the original Solomon and Lord. The setting is rich with vivid descriptions, especially of the nudist colony. The tropical reef truly comes to life in glorious technicolor. BUT, I cannot rate it higher because of the totally false depiction of the coral snake. Levine described a small, highly venomous snake with no fangs as an enormous cross between a colorful python and a lethargic rattlesnake. The absurdity of that makes one question all his other details. I understand the willing suspension of disbelief, but out and out fabrication about the natural world is a step too far for me.

Not crazy this one

I enjoyed listing to the 1st book, took me a minute to get used to the narrator in the 1st book, but after a bit I did. But the 2nd book has a different narrator, which just turned my mind off from really enjoying this story. Not that the narrator was bad, actually,just the opposite, he was good but he wasn't "Solomon" so many books/stories are ruined because the narrator has been cchanged.

OK book.

Narrator doesn't seem to know Australian accent from a British one. Otherwise OK mildly entertaining

Leave the "H" off conch

Leave the "H" off conch and learn how to pronounce Tavernier Key. The reading was a distraction especially when you hear the all of the mispronunciations.
