The Dim-Witted Hitman: A Cruise Crime

De: Deb Graham

Narrado por: Brian Wiggins

“Dimmie, my boy, it looks like you’re going on a luxury cruise.”

With those words, the hot-headed Irish mobster sends his best hitman to take out his old rival. He’ll never control the mob so long as Kerrick is alive.

Dimmie (short for Dim Wit) O’Malley, who has never been out of New York City, is trapped in a life he didn’t choose. With one misstep, he has a change of heart that puts his own life in danger.

A former mob boss, grieving the loss of his wife, refuses to stay in Witness Protection another day, and retires on a cruise ship. Having no idea he’s Dimmie’s next target, will his old skills save him in time? When their paths collide on a luxurious New England cruise ship, only one of them can leave the ship alive. Or will a Fate intervene?

You'll love this clean cruise ship crime story by the author of Murder on Deck, Peril in Paradise, and the best-selling Cruise Addict’s Wife series.

THE DIM WITTED HIT MAN

This is a good mystery. Dimmie's is sent to kill a mob boss. There on a cruise. This may be the first time that I liked the bad guy. Dimmie is simple minded. He does what hes told. This is a very good book. I was one hundred percent wrapped up in this storyline. Brian Wiggins does a great job narrating this book.

Very enjoyable

Enjoyed the depth of the characters.

A different take on the hitman

I found this to be both interesting and entertaining. I've never thought about a hitman as being dim-witted, so when I got the offer to listen to this book I was expecting more of a comedy with the misadventures of a mob hitman. It's not a comedy at all but an adventure for a hitman who was used to taking orders and not thinking about what he was doing. He takes a cruise to do a hit and learns a lot about who he is and what he wants. I was voluntarily provided this review copy audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator.

5 Star

Excellent Book. The characters are well developed and you can develop and understanding and hope that they prevail. The narration was great and overall the book was well worth the listen!

Delightfully Fun

I received this book for free. I am voluntarily posting this review and all opinions expressed herein are my own.

This is a delightful well-written story, which given the subject matter - a hitman goes on a cruise to kill the former mob boss - is an odd thing to say. It is humorous and the author has created a main character who you shouldn't like but he is likeable and you will root for as he makes discoveries about the world and himself.

Dimmie is a very personable hitman. He makes humorous observations and is experiencing new adventures for the first time on his own. Dimmie is a rule follower and yet now he has to interact with people he does not know and make decisions without being guided. Because of this, Dimmie begins to grow and look at life a little differently.

The narrator did a very nice job.

It seems real

The man who was Boss of the Irish mob had a concience and scruples of a sort so he turned Federal evidence and was sent into WITSEC as far away from NYC as small town Kansas where his beloved best friend/wife dies from cancer. So he decides to maybe go live out his days going from cruise to cruise. The hitman is self contained and has had too many people denigrate him and has come to believe it. The current mob boss finds out that the old one is going on a cruise out of New York harbor and sends his assassin out on the cruise to do a hit on the old man. And that's verrry interesting!
Loved it
Brian Wiggins is the amazing narrator who really brought the story to life.

mystery with heart.

This story had me empathizing with and rooting for the retired mob boss and even Dimmie. I enjoyed following along to the end of the story. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job bringing it to life.
