Great Storyline, did not drag out....

What did you love best about Imperfect Strangers?

Refreshing to have a crisp clean story that did not have to be drug out for hours for the finale. Makes me want to find the original Hitchcock movie...

Publisher's Summary:

Hard-boiled ex-cop Tony Valentine has a new profession: spotting casino cheats and exposing a casino's flaws to the owners. Now he must unravel the mystery of an amateur player impossibly raking in the dough on blackjack. However, his investigation stirs up a hornet's nest worth of problems. First of all, the suspect bears a distinct resemblance to Valentine's late wife; second, she's captured on a video surveillance tape with Valentine's lifelong enemy; third, his son Gerry is also in Las Vegas, getting lessons in illegal card-counting. Valentine now sees a new breed of criminal in Vegas, one who is not after money but, instead, is after maximum destruction of human life. It's up to Tony to stop the killings, or risk losing everything he holds dear.

Don't miss any of

's casino adventures.

Critic Reviews:

"Great fun with just the right amount of edge, sort of like a night at the blackjack table." (Booklist)

"An expert on casino swindles, the author packs his books with mind-boggling cons and scams, how to do them and stop them, along with entertaining dialogue and vivid characters, notably the strong, sympathetic Tony." (Publishers Weekly)

Terrorists in Vegas

Although Audible has not yet designated it as such, "Loaded Dice" actually comes fourth in Swain's Tony Valentine series. Unfortunately, the first two entries in the series -- "Grift Sense" and "Funny Money" -- have not yet been recorded on audiobooks, as far as I know; so we have no choice but to start in the middle of this entertaining series. (I always prefer to listen to series novels in chronological order.) I recommend listening to "Sucker Bet" (#3 in the Tony Valentine series) before starting "Loaded Dice," just to pick up some backstory: Tony Valentine, retired Atlantic City cop, now works as a consultant to gambling casinos, exposing grifters. I enjoy this series a great deal. Swain clearly knows whereof he speaks, showing us the many -- frequently cunningly clever -- ways in which people can cheat the gambling establishments out of large sums. Most of these tricks involve deft sleight-of-hand, almost like that practiced by magicians. In "Loaded Dice," we get the additional element of Muslim terrorists thrown in, as well. Clearly this series will not suit everybody; however, I think that anybody who enjoys poker or craps or Las Vegas will probably get a kick out of all of James Swain's Tony Valentine novels. Narrator Paul Boehmer does not have a beautiful voice, but does a better-than-adequate job narrating "Loaded Dice."

Once start listening hard to stop

I am a truck driver, I love these James Swaim books with Tony Valentine, makes my day go much faster never a time that losses my interest.

Dumbest?

I know that I am taking somewhat of a risk buying any book, even if it has good reviews. Well, the book folks sure put one over on me this time. After about 10 minutes I knew that I had been had. Take out the profanity and even a six year old will look for something else.

This book fails on all levels -- no matter how many or what they are.

Publisher's Summary:

Margaret Maron is The New York Times best-selling author of the acclaimed Deborah Knott series of southern mysteries. In a rare departure from the Knott series, Maron ratchets up the suspense in the dark and captivating stand-alone mystery, Last Lessons of Summer. Amy Stedman is the young heiress of a prosperous children's book publishing company. She arrives in North Carolina from New York City to clear the family house of her grandmother's belongings and hopefully find clues to her murder, which remains unsolved. While cleaning and rummaging through the woman's dusty possessions, Amy reflects on her own unfulfilling life. Married to a vain man who doesn't love her so much as value her family's lucrative legacy, Amy realizes that their relationship strangely echoes her parents' unfortunate marriage. Soon after giving birth to her, Amy's mother Maxine committed suicide under suspicious circumstances. Amy's father, a brash businessman and unapologetic opportunist, fostered deceit and deeply seated feelings of doubt in the family. Within the walls of this old house, dark recollections of unnatural death are beginning to permeate the air, adding a premonition of menace to Amy's increasingly troubled thoughts. Was Maxine's death really a suicide? And if it wasn't, what terrible secrets may be lying in wait for Amy?

Last Lessons of Summer

A satisfying book with an appealing small town flavor. I stayed interested even though the main character is a little weak and irritatingly "nice." She is balanced, however, by stronger supporting characters.

ok-worth listening, but not the best

I enjoy some of her earlier books better, but this book was worth reading (listening to). My only real objection is with the reader- she repeatedly mispronounced the town of Beaufort, NC. In N.C., it is pronounced "Bo-fort". Seems as if the reader would at least attempt to ascertain the correct pronunciations. Characters, as usual, were pretty well-developed. I miss "Judge Deborah", though!

Margaret Maron can write the best stories

Really enjoyed this audible book! Margaret Maron never disappoints!! Easy mystery - I listened to this while packing to move to the area where the story takes place. Would enjoy meeting Mrs Maron some time and tell her of my enjoyment of her books Sigmun to this one - all good!

Another fantastic book by Margaret Maron

Excellent book! I love Margaret Maron's books! In each of her books one feels like the characters are folks you know. I hope there will be a follow up to this book!

New Year's Eve, 1999. A grisly machine gun attack in the Washington, D.C. subway system leaves dozens dead and the city crippled with fear. A note delivered to the mayor's office connects the massacre to the Digger, an emotionless assassin programmed to wreak havoc on the capital at four-hour intervals, until midnight. Only a ransom of 20 million dollars delivered to his accomplice - and mastermind - will end the death and terror. But the Digger becomes a far more sinister threat when his accomplice is killed in a freak accident while en route to the money drop. With the ransom note as the single scrap of evidence, Special Agent Margaret Lukasa calls upon Parker Kincaid, a retired FBI agent and the top forensic document examiner in the country. Somehow, by midnight, they must find the Digger - before he finds them.

Title: Wallflower

Author: Chad Lutzke

Narrator: Danny Randerson

Format: Unabridged

Length: 1 hr and 37 mins

Language: English

Release date: 06-22-17

Publisher: Chad Lutzke

Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Suspense

Publisher's Summary:

After an encounter with a homeless man, a high school graduate becomes obsessed with the idea of doing heroin, challenging himself to try it just once. A bleak tale of addiction, delusion, and flowers.

Members Reviews:

Sometimes horror stories are real!

The story opens with Chris and his friends who have all just graduated from high school. The boys have now reached a cornerstone in their lives and are ready to have a little fun before the whole adulthood thing kicks in. There are rumors of a junkie squatter living in an abandoned housing project and they decide to check it out.

Oh, the mistakes we make as kids can follow us for a lifetime. There is indeed a junkie living in one of the homes and as disgusted as Chris finds himself viewing this man's living conditions there is also a curiosity. What could cause someone to be so drawn into a life of drugs that he can't walk away?

I'm sure some of us has experienced this sense of invincibility, the... "Oh no, not me! I am stronger than that." type of attitude. But, alas, it doesn't always work in our favor.

The story reads as a bit of a 'coming of age tale' with dire consequences. It is one that may make you reflect on your own choices in life and perhaps thank God you didn't follow through on all of them. If you know anyone that has or if you yourself have suffered from addiction then you know it is not something you can just walk away from. It is a life sentence that will always be beckoning you.. just one more time.

Addicting!

Wow! What a story! Do not start this book unless you have at least an hour to spare. This story will grip you, immediately, from the prologue until the very end. (I started this book at 11 last night, figuring that I would read a chapter or two, before bed... Needless to say, I was riveted to the story and just had to finish it.)

This story is as addicting as its subject matter, and just like the habit, you want to stop (reading) but you can't!

I love everything about this book, from the cover (designed by Lutzke himself) to the Chapter Headings (very revealing in their downward spiral).

I will definitely be reading more of Lutzke's work!

Addicted to Chad's work

Chad Lutzke blew me away with his last book, Of Foster Homes and Flies. I knew this book would be a worthy follow up. Chad has become one of those authors that you watch their release dates. You base the length of what you read around that date. You make sure you are free the day a new release comes out. Wallflower did not disappoint and I'll be watching and planning for Chad's next book.

Chris is full of curiosity. He doesn't have much going on in his life after graduating high school. He has a few friends, no job, and parents that seem to either not care or want him gone. When he and his friends run across a junkie, Chris feels that curiosity itch. How does a person get like this? What does the Heroin feel like? Chris knows he can scratch that itch and come out of it fine. Just one try. Just once. Then, he'll walk away.

Powerful. Moving. Bleak. We can sit here all day throwing out words to describe this book. Whatever words come to mind when you read it, I'm sure you'll agree with these words: A great book by a great author.

I really liked this book.

I did, I really liked it. Even though thought I could see what was coming, it was like driving by a wreck, you couldn't turn away.

Zum Glück ist Kate nicht allein. Auch ihre Partnerin Maggie Lawson spürt, wie die Stimmung unter den männlichen Kollegen kippt. Ihnen ist jedes Mittel recht, um den Killer zur Strecke zu bringen.

Publisher's Summary:

Archaeologist Neil Watson did not expect to find the body of American veteran Norman Openheim in the ruins of the old chantry chapel. He turns to his old student friend, Detective Sergeant Wesley Peterson, for help. Ironically, both men are looking at an invading force - Wes the WWII Yanks and Neil a group of Spaniards killed by outraged locals as they limped from the wreckage of the Armada. 400 years apart, two strangers in a strange land have died violently - could the same motives of hatred, jealousy and revenge be at work? Wes is running out of time to find out....

Members Reviews:

Another good read.

I love the weaving of past and present in Ellis' works. In this story she weaves WW2 with the Middle Ages and present day and manages to keep it all cogent! Wesley, wife Pam, Neil and the CID team seem like friends with 3 of the series under my belt.

Second book in this series and still enjoying the use ...

Second book in this series and still enjoying the use of historical documents, archaeology and parallel circumstances very interesting. Author Ellis conveys a strong sense of place in her novels and supports that with a hint of the weight of history. Her characters are becoming more realistic with each of her novels I read.

nice combo of mystery and history

I enjoy procedural mysteries and historical fiction. This book has both. Wesley seems torn between his police work and his love of archeology, and this works week for the story line. It seems we are destined to repeat our mistakes.

History and suspense

Enjoyed this book very much I love the mix of history and suspense and having read one other book in this series I find I like the characters and am looking forward to reading more of them.

Fantastic story

I love the way the author has 2 stories going at once with a link to the past and present. My only criticism is the large amount of typos in the book.

Title: The Switch

Publisher: Simon & Schuster Audio

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 47 votes

Publisher's Summary:

Media-savvy Chief turns out to be an easy assignment for Melina. But the following morning, police arrive at Melina's door with the worst possible news: her beloved twin has been murdered, and on the walls, scrawled in blood, are obscenities directed at Gillian, along with insults that indisputably link Chief to the crime.

Dissatisfied with the official police investigation, Chief and Melina form a grudging alliance. Striking out on their own, they uncover more questions than answers, and are eventually led to the threshold of an inner sanctum, where a megalomaniac lies in wait for Gillian's replacement, her identical twin: Melina.

A story that reveals the powerful, almost mystical bond between twins, a bond that compels a woman to go to impossible lengths to avenge her sister, The Switch defies every prediction.

Critic Reviews:

"A masterful storyteller, carefully crafting tales that keep readers on the edge of their seats." (USA Today)

"Sandra Brown is back in rare form with a complex and exciting tale that plays straight to all her strengths. Romance, suspense and danger...dynamite reading." (Romantic Times)

Members Reviews:

This book need to be a movie...its oh so brilliant

Sandra you did a good job with this book I hasd it at home and one day I took it off the book shelf to read the very first time and to how the book grabbed me I took four day to read it

in my spare time...superb...

Great!

Such a great story, with a twist you never see coming. It grabs you right away and pulls you in.

For fans of claptrap

I really enjoyed "Envy" so took a chance on this.

Cartoon characters and silly overblown improbable action of pure good vs pure evil for fans of this genre.

Story ok, naration snore

The narration on this story is half panicked and half emotionless. It’s very strange. It’s as though everything is a question or an emphatic statement. The story is ok but Im having a hard time following it. Not as great as Envy, which was fantastic, but ok.

Narration was awesome

The story was complex and the characters were well thought out. This is my fourth book I've read from this author and can't wait to see what he comes up with next.

This book kept my interest and I loved the surprise beginning and ending. All around a good read. Hope there is a book two :)

For the audible version the narrator was great. The voices she made were good and you were easily able to tell who was who.

Loved
