Publisher's summary

Jekyll Island. A little slice of relaxing paradise. But when lawyers from all over Georgia descend to the island for their annual conference, the murder of the state bar president is a surprise addition to the agenda.

Chance Meridian, finally able to take a long-delayed honeymoon after getting his murder squad up and running, has more interest in the beach than a new case. But the Governor has other plans. Thrust into an investigation far from home, Chance soon learns that the dead man had more enemies than is good for one’s health—most of them living under the victim’s own roof. Faced with a desperate murderer willing to kill again, Chance must untangle a web of deceit before one final act of violence changes his life forever.

A standalone thriller in the best-selling Atlanta Murder Squad series, A Hard Way to Die is a taut mystery brimming with suspense until the very end.

Excellence

I enjoyed every minute of this audio book. It is a well written book, thought provoking & excellent. I hope there are many more future books in this series.

Jekyll Island Murder Mystery

I really liked this installment of the Chance Meridian series. The setting was really descriptive on Jekyll Island, Georgia. The cast of suspects was plentiful and made it fun to try to figure out. It could have gone several different ways who committed the murder.
This is a great series!

Do Not Like the New Narrator

The narrator of this book has changed the tenor of the characters series from the first two books and doesn't make the book as good as the first two.

Not one of the best

I normally don’t enjoy Dick Hill narrating style but the gentleman narrating the last books I listened to isn’t the best. I won’t buy book 5 if he narrates.

Became redundant

I agree that the change in narrator changed the whole feel of the books. Stories became predictable. Perhaps widening the characters might have helped. You almost knew there would be some difficulty at the end involving his wife.

the humor

Authors series is well thought out and always has an interesting twist and the narrator has just the right amount of sarcasm and humor.

Another great book

Another great book, performed with a great southern accent, for those of us who are from the north. This one kept me guessing right up until the end.

Love this series!

This is a fast and fun read, a break from some of the more serious stuff I read. It is, however, becoming predictable that the murderer will be the one least suspected after pursuing everyone else. But, I still enjoy it.

Excellent

Good character development. Good story, although I did figure out who the bad guy was before the end, naming him felt like closure. I can't wait for the next one.

Style

This is my 4th book in the murder squad series. I like his continuous Christian influence. I love mysteries, but some include filth and curse words. Lance interjects the faith that we have in common. All 4 have kept me uncertain of the murderer until the end.
