Bury Me Deep

De: Harold Q. Masur

Narrado por: Roberto Scarlato

One of the best of the hard-boiled detectives, and one of the most neglected, is the fast-living lawyer Scott Jordan. Jordan is the creation of Harold Q. Masur, himself a practicing lawyer, born-and-educated in New York City, who now presents his cases as fiction. The first novel in the series is Bury Me Deep, a great title that definitely sets the mood. It's a fast-moving murder mystery that begins when Jordan comes home early to find a beautiful but unknown blonde half-dressed and very drunk in his apartment. From then on things get ever more complicated, as murder and intrigue rear their twin heads with Jordan stuck in the middle, trying to solve the crime and clear himself of a murder charge.

Adrenaline laced insanity

Received an audio copy from the narrator to review, this is an honest review. Wonderfully performed by Roberto Scarlato, Bury Me Deep turns into a wild, complex mess of a case that lawyer Scott Jordan gets himself roped into from the moment he finds a sexy woman dressed only on her underwear in his apartment. Definitely a better development than the shitty trip Jordan just returned from. Then things to complete hell after the women suddenly dies and the lawyer is fingered to have killed her; as Jordan races against those bent on silencing him as the man discovers what exactly the dead woman has been involved in, both trust in people Jordan can put his life their hands and informational prove to be the keys to the knee deep shit show Scott Jordan fell into and prays to escape.

Highly recommended.

A reissue of a 1949 hard boiled novel

While not as famous as his contemporaries (Chandler, Hammett, Gardner), Mazur was noted in his time for his hard-boiled fiction. Scott Jordan is a lawyer who does his own detective work, especially when an unidentified blonde shows up, first unidentified in his apartment, then dead in the taxi he put her in. A decent story filled with highly descriptive prose, yet somehow mediocre.
The narrator is not a good fit for this kind of novel. His voice is too pleasant, and delivery too bland and relatively emotionless. I feel that he would be well suited to Charles River Editors or University press.
