The Mozart Conspiracy

A Thriller

De: Scott Mariani

Narrado por: Steven Crossley

While investigating the death of his lover’s brother, Ben Hope returns for a race around Europe as he uncovers clues and secrets suggesting the murder of eighteenth-century composer Mozart in this suspenseful thriller by international bestselling author Scott Mariani.

When former British Special Air Service officer Ben Hope is enlisted by his first love, the beautiful singer Leigh Llewellyn, to investigate her brother Oliver’s death, their search leads to a blood-soaked puzzle dating back to the eighteenth-century and the death of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The famous composer was a noted Freemason and evidence suggests it was possible he was killed by a shadowy splinter group of the organization.

The official report states that Oliver died in a tragic accident, but the day he died, he sent Leigh all the files concerning an unfinished book on Mozart. As Ben and Leigh piece together Oliver’s research, they receive a missing letter written by the composer himself that indicates both men’s deaths could have been murder.

From Oxford’s dreamy spires to Venice’s labyrinthine canals and Vienna’s majestic palaces, Ben and Leigh must race across Europe to uncover the truth behind the Mozart conspiracy.

Tyrony

terrible thing.
I didn't like it. This should be removed from the list!

Silly, Exaggerated, Conspiracy Plot

I found the plot to be far too far fetched. One endless chase and crisis after another. Suitable for those who want to read Indiana Jones on steroids and suspend common sense and belief without the flying saucers.

Dumbest book I've ever read

If this was supposed to be anything like James Bond, Ian Fleming would be spinning in his grave. This book was awful. Most of the plot was predictable, but when it wasn't it was either stupid or angering. Often the author couldn't come up with ways to get his main characters into or out of situations, so he would just ignore the problem, use magic, and Ta-Da, the characters would magically end up where they needed to be.

Characters development was nonexistent, except for Ben being the aggressive alfa male, while Leigh was the naive woman needing to be saved (often).

The ending of the book...just ended, and ended on a bad note. I was so angry at the author, I vowed to never read one of his books again. This vow I intend to keep.

The performer of the book was pretty good; although, I would like to hear him read something better to rate his performances.
