The Fisher King

A Jack McBride Mystery, Book 2

De: Melissa Lenhardt

Narrado por: P.J. Ochlan

When the dust settles in this Texas town, who will be left standing?

It's been six weeks since Jack McBride's life went to hell: The resolution of his first case as chief sparked a county-wide drug war, his brother Eddie rode into town with a pocket full of cocaine and trouble on his mind, his estranged wife returned from her one-year sabbatical determined to win him back, and Ellie Martin ended their brief affair.

To the Stillwater natives, the increase in local crime can be traced directly back to the day outsider McBride took the job, and they're gunning to get rid of him. One particular group is led by Joe Doyle, a successful local businessman who's running for city council against Ellie and her plan to revitalize downtown. Now Jack has discovered proof Doyle is the biggest crime lord in the county, and, with murders piling up and the drug war intensifying, Jack suspects the crimes aren't business but personal - and he's the target.

The bitter election and Jack's investigation spark old rivalries and new jealousies, making Ellie and those who love Stillwater most wonder if it's even worth saving.

Jane

Just one criticism, somehow Jane lost her German accent in favor of what could be interpreted as an accent of the locals. Other than that I very much enjoyed this book!

hated the narrator but story was good

I really wanted to finish this series, so I struggled through this book. But this narrator was awful, it really made it hard to pay attention. I'd definitely listen to it again with a different narrator though.

LOVE!!!!!!

I’ll just sit her and feverishly stalk Melissa Lenhardt’s fb page waiting for updates on book 3. My heart can’t take it 😩😩😩😩

P.s.
if you like detective books, thriller books, small town books, murder books, romance books, etc. do yourself a favor and start at book 1. Try not to rush…..it’s almost impossible not to, but TRY!!! Because otherwise, you will be pinning away for book 3 just like me.

Enjoyed the story line, kept me guessing almost till the end.

Narrator has a great story voice. Keeps you engaged, helps brings the characters to life.

Second time

I have listened to this twice and love this storyline. I would love to read another book regarding Jack MCBride
