The Movie-Town Murders

The Art of Murder, Book 5

De: Josh Lanyon

Narrado por: Kale Williams

Murder: Live and in Technicolor

Working undercover allows FBI Art Crime Team agent Jason West the illusion of safety as he investigates the supposed discovery of a legendary lost 1950s private eye movie known as Snowball in Hell. But the complicated relationship between film preservation and piracy is nothing to preserving the delicate balance of Jason's ongoing relationship with BAU Chief Sam Kennedy.

Sam is hunting the man hunting Jason, and until Dr. Jeremy Kyser is caught, the possibility of a real relationship between Sam and Jason has to be put on pause.

Then Jason learns of another legendary lost flick, the subject darker than any film noir, and he's drawn into the secret, sinister world of snuff films. A world where the line between fantasy and felony—a line as thin and deadly as a strand of piano wire—means the difference between life and death.

Love Jason and Sam, and Josh’s characters woven into the story. Kale Williams is, as usual, an EXCEPTIONAL narrator!

This book can stand alone, but it made me want to go back to earlier in series anyway.
Special Agents Jason West and Sam Kennedy work on opposite coasts with West is on the art crimes task force currently investigating the possibility of a homicide in the film arts preservation while Kennedy is in Washington DC on the trail of a serial killer. West is more or less undercover (as a substitute professor) and is also on the lookout for a murderous stalker that he has on his trail.
A very intense bit of sleuthing complicated by personal danger and complications with their relationship. Excellent and riveting.
Voice actor Kale Williams has a great voice quality and really knows how to use it to the listener's advantage.
