Critic reviews

"A cracking good yarn." (Booklist)
"Edgar-finalist Rosenfelt scores another touchdown with his fourth Andy Carpenter novel and proves he's in the game to stay." (Publishers Weekly)

Wish this was unabridged

This is really terrific in every aspect, except that I missed whatever was left out of the abridged version. I was determined to mark my rating down because only the abridged version was available, but I can't. It's too good.

So if you can. get the book and read it. If like me, you really need the audio version, get this in spite of the abridgment.

Andy’s wants to be a Football player?

I love David Rosenfelt’s books, they are laugh out loud funny. While David Rosenfelt has a bit of a formula for the story lines he creates, they are always good. This is my second time around listening to the series. I love it just as much as the first time around. But not only do I love the main character of his books, the side characters are ones. I love and look forward to finding out what they are up to. Love Grover Gardner he does Andy so well.

SUBLIME

this is David's finest so far. I enjoyed the previous Mysteries immensely but this one takes the cake. and a layer cake it is, filled with Chris and turns and humor. he is my finest detective writer

Funny AND fantastic mystery!

Let’s start by letting you know I don’t like court procedural mysteries. UNTIL NOW! Rosenfelt writes the perfect combination of a gosh-dang good mystery, humor, not one word too many court procedural. Great cast of characters. And a golden retriever!! This is my sixth book in the series (I read one out of order) and I am looking forward to listening to all of them!

Light, Easy, Entertaining

Even though the Andy Carpenter series runs a common theme, I have not gotten bored with them. I try to alternate reading fiction and non-fiction, classic and contemporary. When my brain is filled with the stresses of real life, this is a good choice, in between the heavies of other literary choices. You will not be dissapointed. He is humorous and not predictable. And the narration is great!
