The Ice Harvest

De: Scott Phillips

Narrado por: Grover Gardner

It's Christmas Eve, 1979, in Wichita, and Charlie Arglist, a crooked lawyer and strip-club owner, is drunkenly making the rounds before he blows town for good. Getting progressively drunker and deeper in trouble, Charlie needs to drop off a photograph of a local official in a compromising position and steal some drug money. Before it's all over, a lot of people are going to wind up dead.©2000 Scott Phillips (P)2005 Blackstone Audiobooks

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[A] funny, craftily malevolent first novel, an ice-pick-sharp crime story that sustains its film-noir energy all the way to an outrageous whammy of an ending." (The New York Times)
"A pitch-perfect foray into pulp fiction, witty and bitter, with an ironic conclusion that makes a neat package." (Library Journal)

The ice harvest

Amusing story of murder and betrayal. violence and plenty of double crossing characters are just a few of the actions that this story will surprise you with.

Worth the time.

Love the story. Love Grover as narrator. Dislike strongly the ending. I just think of the movie ending and stop listening.

Loves it

I loved this book, the ending sucked but all in all it was a great book with a great reader. It’s got Christmas, crime, and everything I love in a story, highly recommend.

Entertaining!

I didn't know what to expect, but this turned out to be really good. Surprising and a little twisty and quite entertaining. The narrator did solid justice to the book.

A little slow at times

There were slow parts in this book and some unbelievable parts, but overall okay.
