Story
Set in Key West, this new mystery series promises a can't-put-down story of murder, mayhem, and duplicity. Rick Marlow is a broken former NYPD cop who had been shot by his partner during the discovery of a dead body in an alley. Half-dead and barely recovered Marlow moves south to Key West, figuring the end of the road might mean a new beginning. Then, hired to find a missing heiress by a Key West attorney, Marlow suddenly has purpose once more. The case takes him from Key West to Miami, where big bucks, blackmail and Cuban Intelligence agents all cross his path.

Innocent citizens are being killed - and others set up - seemingly orchestrated by a mysterious ski-masked man.

Gunther knows that he must pursue the case to its conclusion, wherever it leads.

Story
If you've never read a Repairman Jack novel, this is the place to begin. It's 1990. A twenty-one-year-old named Jack has dropped out of college, leaving his old life behind to build a new one in New York City. Manhattan's rough edges are jagged enough to shred any unwary newcomer, but perhaps not one who is determined to stay off the grid, at any cost, in the busiest metropolis on earth. And to do so, he'll have to take jobs of a less than legal nature.

Another great book narrated by Al Benelli...
What did you love best about Marlow: The Neon Goodbye?
I like all detective characters... Magnum P.I., Mannix, Popeye Doyle, Steve McGarrett... and Rick Marlow fits in perfectly. Easy to picture, track and predict. What makes this story special is that Rick's history with the NYPD is a pretty twisted set of circumstances that he's still trying to solve. Makes for good reading/listening.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Oh, well definitely Rick Marlow since he's the main character but there's a pretty good cast of supporting folks as well. Della... Walter... Chief Tom Lerner... the Jamaican drug dealer... and gaggle of NYC cops & family down in Key West for a wedding, or so we're led to believe... all gave the narrator a lot of good opportunities to bring the characters created by Bill Craig to life. The assortment of voices made it easy to track everyone, even during the many scene changes.
Which scene was your favorite?
The final shootout which reveals the "surprise" ending. Didn't see this coming... which made the book that much more enjoyable... kept me guessing throughout as the folks I thought were the perpetrators kept turning up dead somewhere on the island.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
You can move the ex-cop out of the city... but you can't stop his past from hunting him down!
Any additional comments?
I've been following "Al Benelli" narrated books on Audible and he's introduced me to some pretty cool authors. Comedies, thrillers, biographies, heart-warmers... it's quite an assortment of good entertainment. I'm liking these audio books in a way I never thought I would.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

An Exciting Detective Story
The Neon Goodbye is a fun, action packed detective story. The characters are interesting and believable. While the plot doesn't give you any information to figure out the solution ahead of time, the mystery does wind between suspects and keeps you guessing until the final reveal. While the body count stretched my suspension of disbelief a bit, all the main characters felt real and kept me fully engaged.
The narrator does a great job of voicing the characters, using different accents to ensure that everyone is distinguishable. He definitely performs the story and really brings it to life.
I'd recommend this book to anyone looking for a quick, fun mystery with plenty of excitement and surprises!
