About this listen

Private investigator and World War II veteran Aloysius Archer heads to Los Angeles, the city where dreams are made and shattered, and is ensnared in a lethal case in this latest thriller in #1 New York Times bestselling author David Baldacci’s Nero Award-winning series.

It’s the eve of 1953, and Aloysius Archer is in Los Angeles to ring in the New Year with an old friend, aspiring actress Liberty Callahan, when their evening is interrupted by an acquaintance of Callahan’s: Eleanor Lamb, a screenwriter in dire straits.

After a series of increasingly chilling events—mysterious phone calls, the same blue car loitering outside her house, and a bloody knife left in her sink—Eleanor fears that her life is in danger, and she wants to hire Archer to look into the matter. Archer suspects that Eleanor knows more than she’s saying, but before he can officially take on her case, a dead body turns up inside of Eleanor’s home . . . and Eleanor herself disappears.

Missing client or not, Archer is dead set on finding both the murderer and Eleanor. With the help of Callahan and his partner Willie Dash, he launches an investigation that will take him from mob-ridden Las Vegas to the glamorous world of Hollywood to the darkest corners of Los Angeles—a city in which beautiful faces are attached to cutthroat schemers, where the cops can be more corrupt than the criminals . . . and where the powerful people responsible for his client’s disappearance will kill without a moment’s hesitation if they catch Archer on their trail.

After I got over the reader sounding like a cross between Clint Eastwood and David Puddy it was good. The female reader was very good.

Excellent

The book was well done. I had a hard time with the narration. I know what the intent was in the breathy, rapid fire narration, but I found it distracting. I kept thinking I was listening to old Dragnet episodes!

Loved the book

The pleasure of reading exciting books like Baldacci’s is greatly diminished by the imposition someone else’s mood! Send my next one without it, please!

Music? Why?

Very disappointed with the predictably… After 3 books of building the relationship between characters, the sudden ending was so cliche.

Losing the girl is oh so cliche…

Baldacci never fails you. Great character development and storyline filled with twists and turns. Hollywood in the fifties. So very cool. Major kudos to Ballerini and the female lead Brittany Presley. Just superb.
