When a young man is found gruesomely murdered in a London houseboat, it triggers questions about three women who knew him. Laura is the troubled one-night-stand last seen in the victim’s home. Carla is his grief-stricken aunt, already mourning the recent death of yet another family member. And Miriam is the nosy neighbor clearly keeping secrets from the police. Three women with separate connections to the victim. Three women who are – for different reasons – simmering with resentment. Who are, whether they know it or not, burning to right the wrongs done to them.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Jake’s back story after running from his past
Running from your past is not always a good idea. Jake has found himself in another mess, which takes him on the dark side of a town that wants him to leave or die. This book is full of suspense and thrills at every turn, the narrator is awesome and the characters are well developed. A must read!

Difficult to Listen to the Narrator
I listened to this title for about 45 minutes and then couldn't take the narration anymore and had to finish it on my Kindle. I have lived in Maine for 20+ years and never heard anyone here speak the way Mr. Parsons narrates the characters. He also misses on the British accent of the MC. If you're looking for a grizzly murder mystery, this could be a good choice, but don't listen to the Audible version.

Good Mystery. Horrible Maine Accent.
I have generally enjoyed Wes Markin’s books, tho they can be quite grizzly and violent. And I love Aubrey Parsons’ gravelly voice and look for new series that he narrates. But. This one. Whew—ee. Mr. Parsons needs to learn how a New Englander, at least, speaks. Maine is different, but I’d be okay with a generic NE accent— not the hillbilly Southern twang he applied to the inhabitants of this new series. Very distracting! And, with the graphic descriptions of dog fighting, I’d recommend taking a pass, at least on the audio version. Maybe reading it would be better since you could skim the truly horrific animal cruelty scenes.

Ridiculous premise, and terrible presentation. The narrators voices were laughable and bush league. I would send this back if it were allowed.
