Brett Cornell Mysteries, Book 2

By: David D'Aguanno

Narrated by: Travis Henry Carter

Length: 7 hrs and 42 mins

Publisher's summary

A man is found dead with a bullet hole in his chest, and private detective Brett Cornell is the number one suspect. It might have something to do with the fact that there were witnesses who had seen him punching the guy around only a few days earlier. Or - more likely - it might be because the police have discovered that the fatal bullet had been fired from his gun!

In the second novel of this detective series set in the late 1980s, self-proclaimed unscrupulous bastard Brett Cornell has to figure out who's trying to set him up: Could it be his lovely but meek new client? Or perhaps her equally lovely but far-from-meek roommate? Or might it actually be the beautiful and dynamic aerobics instructor he's recently taken up with?

In the meantime, Brett's legendary, Adonis-like features get severely damaged when he ends up catching the beating of his life - emotionally as well as physically - before he finally nails the identity of the real killer!

The unscrupulous bastard strikes again!

This is the 2nd book into the Brett Cornell Mysteries and if you enjoyed the 1st one, you should enjoy this one just as much! It had a few reoccurring characters from the first book and more suprises and twists!

Travis Henry Carter is such a perfect narrator for this series and I feel like he really makes the character come to life.

I know that there will be some people who will be turned off by Bretts demeanour and how he goes about treating women. I see the story almost as if I'm at a bar and some guy thinks he's a hotshot and is telling me his story. that guy would be Brett and I would just think he's full of himself and to not take him so seriously. I don't in anyway think the author is like the character he writes.

Brett Aerobicizes is a funny mystery book and I can't wait to read the next in the series!

Brett strike again!

This story is hilarious. The author has a special humorous. The main character, Brett, is a real specimen (womanizer, jerk…). Honestly, Brett's attitude is too gross to be mad about him! The narration is great. I received this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.

Perfect narrator and a great story.

What made the experience of listening to Brett Aerobicizes the most enjoyable?

The narrator's characterization of the main character was spot on and the story was compelling and fast paced.

What other book might you compare Brett Aerobicizes to and why?

The Stone Barrington series by Stuart Woods. Life just happens to Brett and he also has no luck with the ladies.

Which scene was your favorite?

I liked the ending, which I won't spoil. Brett's banter with the lieutenant is a close second. He's so arrogant in situations he doesn't control, it's funny.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It made me laugh. I didn't cry.

Any additional comments?

Travis Henry Carter is now Brett to me. D’Aguanno followed some unexpected patterns and the dialogue is top notch. There’s a chemistry between Brett and the characters in the world not as apparent in the previous book. He still has disdain for some people and attraction to others but his interaction with Marilyn at the start of the novel is a good example. He notices everything about her. Of course, she’s attractive so he would but there’s almost a romance to his appreciation of her as a sexual object. These are the times when you can be sure that Brett has a soul. More than the first novel, Brett notices everything and his observations are frequently downright hilarious.

Another funny mystery!

Brett is an egotistical jerk! So much so that it’s funny! Since the story takes place in the 80s, it’s much easier to laugh at this and appreciate how much we have evolved as a society.

Brett unleashed!

Brett certainly gets a LOT of exercise in this one, but none of it is in an aerobics class. He's also particularly ruthless and nasty in this one; even surprised me a couple times. I was begging for a moment of tenderness at one point, but through and through, Brett is the perfect characterization of a sociopath. All this said, you'll still embrace him in the face of the bad-guy cops; or at least root for him to emerge the number 1 unscrupulous bastard. All in all, nother great book in the series! Well done!

Brett Aerobicizes

This book just was not my cup of tea. I did not care for the main character at all and that made it difficult for me to listen for any length of time.

Don’t get me wrong, the author did a nice job, and I thought the narrator gave a solid performance. I just don’t think I was the right audience for this story or the series.

an 'unscrupulous bastard'

Brett is a PI...a very self-absorbed guy...but hilarious AF!! Brett is investigating a threatening note to his new client, Marilyn...twist is that she is engaged to an arch-nemesis (a cop). We follow the self-proclaimed 'unscrupulous bastard' as he solves the case, while trying to ditch his live-in gf. This book was so chocked full of humor, that I was laughing like a loon on my daily commute. If you enjoy light-hearted, witty banter, then this book is for you.
I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Nothing beats Brett.

It's impossible not to love this book, in fact it's impossible not to love the whole series!
My only warning is that if you got a broken rib and don't want a world of pain then you should wait because even without a broken rib there will be some pain involved with so much laughter.
All I can say is that this is not your usual book, there was a lot of thinking done in writing those great books.
I'm totally in love with this series, there is no equal for Brett and probably will never be !!!
Absolutely recommended !

fantastic

these books are absolutely fantastic. Brett is a character you just can't help but love, even though you really want to hate him.
