Pretty Pretty Boys

Hazard and Somerset Mystery Series, Book 1

De: Gregory Ashe

Narrado por: Tristan James

After Emery Hazard loses his job as a detective in Saint Louis, he heads back to his hometown - and to the local police force there. Home, though, brings no happy memories, and the ghosts of old pain are very much alive in Wahredua. Hazard's new partner, John-Henry Somerset, had been one of the worst tormentors, and Hazard still wonders what Somerset's role was in the death of Jeff Langham, Hazard's first boyfriend.

When a severely burned body is discovered, Hazard finds himself drawn deeper into the case than he expects. Determining the identity of the dead man proves impossible, and solving the murder grows more and more unlikely. But as the city's only gay police officer, Hazard is placed at the center of a growing battle between powerful political forces. To his surprise, Hazard finds an unlikely ally in his partner, the former bully. And as they spend more time together, something starts to happen between them, something that Hazard can't - and doesn't want - to explain.

The discovery of a second mutilated corpse, though, reveals clues that the two murders are linked, and as Hazard gets closer to answers, he uncovers a conspiracy of murder and betrayal that goes deeper - and closer to home - than he could ever expect.

Great start to a series

I had a wonderful time with this book! I haven't read anything like it in a really long time which was refreshing. There are plenty of unanswered questions I'm hoping to see come to light in the following books and I highly recommend if you're a fan of mystery as well as angsty romance. the narration is also incredible!

Great Buddy Cop Mystery!

It's got suspense, intrigue, and that beautiful sexual tension mixed with a dash of angst that make this book an excellent read. And due to the agonizingly slow burn, forces you to get the next book in the series before you snap from the tension. 5 stars!

Good plot, perfect storyteling.

Close to no steam. Erotic scenes just... go to dark and then is morning.

Well written and performed

Worth the listen. The characters are fully three dimensional, both the heros and the villains.

Worth it!

This was my first “cop” mystery, but I loved the gay elements. I loved how we bounced from the two main characters, it really made the tension deep. The narrator was a bit dry. I’d read every book tho!
