Monument to Murder

Capital Crimes Series, Book 25

De: Margaret Truman

Narrado por: Dick Hill

Times are tough in Savannah for former cop and current PI Robert Brixton, so when he agrees to take on a 20-year-old murder case, he figures he's got nothing to lose. It's not long before the trail leads him deep into the corrupt underbelly of Savannah's power elite and right into the lap of a secret government organization that's been offing "troublesome" politicians for decades. The cold case heats up when he joins forces with former attorneys Mackensie and Annabel Lee Smith to investigate the organization and the murders they committed in the name of patriotism.

With what he knows, Brixton can bring down Washington, D.C.'s leading social hostess, if not the administration itself. But can he outwit an organization that is hell-bent on keeping its secrets--secrets that go all the way back to the assassinations of Jack and Bobby Kennedy?

Margaret Truman brings us into the corridors of Washington power as only she can, where the end too often justifies the means, where good people are destroyed by those for whom the only goal is survival...whatever the cost.

A predictable storyline

The story was very weak and predictable . I could easily pull out some other stories and figure out the end in the middle . NOT one of the better Capital Crime stories.

Excellent!

To me, this book falls into a category between a cozy and a thriller. It's definitely not "sweet and comforting" but it's not a hard boiled thriller either. There is a small amount of swearing but really no explicit sex scenes. The narrator was superb! When he voiced the assassin's mother, it had the same effect on me as it did on her son. Well done!

Don't bother with this one. It's awful.

Terrible story line. Plodding narrator. Complete disaster. Too bad, as early books in series very good. This is a definite pass!
