New York Times bestselling author Robert K. Tanenbaum ’s hero , District Attorney Butch Karp , goes up against a ruthless union leader with too much power , too many secrets , and too many enemies to silence . . . or kill .

Prizefighter tough. Street-hustler smart. Pit-bull vicious. Longshoremen’s union boss Charlie Vitteli clawed his way to the top—and no one’s going to take him down now. Not if they value their lives. Like Vince Carlotta. He accused Vitteli of embezzlement and election rigging. Now Carlotta is just another corpse on the waterfront—allegedly gunned down by an armed robber. Connecting Vitteli to the murder could be the death of anyone who tries . . . unless District Attorney Butch Karp can uncover the one tragic flaw that could bring down the curtain on the cold-blooded villain once and for all. Packed with ingenious twists, diabolical turns, and shocking revelations, Tragic is Robert K. Tanenbaum at his page-turning best.

Not enough from originAl series characters.

As with the past two books there is too much courtroom drama and not enough interrelated story with his wife Marlene, and his children. One of my favorite series until they displayed nearly nothing of the crime fighting family.

Just So-So

Have read Tanenbaum in the past and remembered why I wasn't impressed. Fairly interesting courtroom drama but drags out and is so predictable. Law & Order reruns are more interesting.

Well below expectations

The last half of the novel was spent on courtroom testimony. The overall storyline was considerably short from what I have come to expect from Tanenbaum. The narrator couldn't keep the voices straight, and a good portion of the men's voices were done in falsetto. What's up with that?

A good Butch Karp read, not my favorite, but good!

What did you love best about Tragic?

This book did not have all the regular characters that are in most of the other books. At first that bothered me a little bit, but it is a very engaging and interesting book.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Because I enjoy courtroom drama, it was even more engaging!

What does Bob Walter bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The only review I saw when I purchased the book was someone going on and on about how much she hated the change in readers. She didn't even listen to much of it because she couldn't adjust. This reader was different from the one that normally does the Butch Karp series, but it didn't take long to adapt and appreciate his rhythm, tone, and emphasis.

Any additional comments?

Always enjoy this series and this book did not disappoint!

a Great read I have listened to it 2 times, .…....

Loved this series, I have found new characters that I missed either by a distraction the first time or sleep.
Mr Tannenbaum is a amazing writer he makes you see.the scene in your mind eyes. The little things that are so important to the story.
You feel like your a neighbor looking into this family.
