Publisher's Summary:

After dozens of Lexington, Kentucky's forgotten - mostly prostitutes and the homeless - swamp local hospitals from apparent overdoses over the Fourth of July weekend, Kentucky cops soon discover a new synthetic form of heroin is infecting their communities, and that gangs - namely the outlaw motorcycle gang Samael's Army - are responsible for using a "disposable" population to test the new drug.

Soon after, the deadly new drug claims the daughter of a US senator, and FBI Director Jack Waller assigns Brooke Fairfax to the case. Because the synthetic opioid was created in a lab, the feds turn to the expertise of billionaire chemist Declan O'Roark, who is all too happy to lend a hand if it will bring him closer to Brooke.

As Brooke and Declan are forced to work together, Declan attempts to tear down the barriers around Brooke's heart. But when Brooke gets drawn into the depths of the outlaw motorcycle gang she's investigating, she and Declan both fear for her life.

Members Reviews:

I liked it, but still have questions

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

Yes and no. Who drugged the Senators daughter? Who is moving drugs that kill in the community? These are the plots to solve. The intrigue was there, but everything wasn't cleared up to my satisfaction. We presume the death was an accident, we find that greed and power were involved..was the Senator involved? Who killed the girls? Who were the dead bodies in the truck? Was it Gray that cooked up the batch of drugs? Did he really have the knowledge to do so? The story wasn't as wrapped up as I thought it should have been.

Any additional comments?

I enjoyed the book. This was the first time I've had dual readers and I'm not sure that was necessary. Emily was great, Irish accent and all. Alan was fine, but his reading of Declan was adequate, but I liked Emily's better. I would have rated the performance a 3, but Emily's performance swayed me

I was left a little unsatisifed about the conclusion. Some things weren't clearly settled in my mind. Brooke made many stupid decisions that I felt as FBI she should have known better..she was a bit reckless..and we never heard anything more about Demetri. It's possible that these questions could continue into the next book.

Publisher's Summary:

Free speech or hate? When a white supremacist schedules an event on campus, Red Solaris must confront her own feelings about an issue that challenges the very core of American education: campus safety versus freedom of speech. Amidst escalating tension, Red meets with the editor of the student newspaper - who also confides in Red that her young cousin is missing, probably a victim of local sex traffickers. Agreeing to rescue the girl, Red solicits help from her beloved Detective Joe Morgan. But when Joe goes undercover into the dangerous world of human trafficking, he disappears without a trace. Red must balance her fears for Joe with her worries that a campus riot may soon break out.

Critic Reviews:

"Morris hits it out of the park with this third novel in her Red Queen mystery trilogy. It is smart, fast-paced, and utterly contemporary with plot lines of disturbing hate groups and higher educations attempts to teach students how to respond peacefully yet effectively to hate speech. Red Solaris struggles to keep those she loves safe from an increasingly dangerous world, both on campus and off." (Don Hardy, Author of Because Id Just Hate to Disappear)

"Once again, the inquisitive and impulsive Red Solaris ricochets between ivory tower abstractions and real world mayhem. The best Red Queen mystery yet." (Ann Ronald, Author of Friendly Fallout 1953)

Best narrator ever! Exciting story.

The story is great and really funny in places.

Great characters and the narrator is amazing - he has a wide range of accents to deal with, but is mesmerising to listen to.

Listened to Whiskey In Small Glasses first. Both as good as each other.

good story - but

good story and well read so an interesting listen. however the stories in this series are, I think, overloaded with unecessary swearing. this does not shock but just annoys and adds nothing to the story.

Keeps getting better

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This is really good,engrossing story. Complex enough to keep you thinking but very easy to listen to. A very gripping end, with the promise of more!

The narrator, David Monteath, is superb. Couldn't have chosen better.

Publisher's Summary:

In the weeks before hosting the 1976 Summer Olympics, the Montreal police are tightening security to prevent another catastrophe like the '72 games in Munich. But it isn't tight enough to stop nearly $3 million from being stolen in a bold daytime Brink's truck robbery.

As the high-profile heist continues to baffle the police, Constable Eddie Dougherty gets a chance to prove his worth as a detective when he's assigned to assist the suburban Longueuil force in investigating the deaths of two teenagers returning from a rock concert across the Jacques Cartier Bridge. Were they mugged and thrown from the bridge? Or was it a murder-suicide? With tensions running high in the city and his future career at stake, Dougherty faces the limits of the force and of his own policing and has to decide when to settle and when justice is the only thing that should be obeyed.

Members Reviews:

A sold series moves forward

Book Three of the Eddie Dougherty series, this time starting with the Brinks robbery and going through the 1976 Montreal Olympics. The tease of homicide has worn thin with Eddie and his personal life grows more important. McFetridge continues his move into Joe Wambaugh territory, writing less about cases than how the cases affect the cop. A nice look into the shifting responsibilities of a cop as cases come and go, told with all the style and wit one has come to expect from McFetridge.

Solid crimefighting, lots of action and more too!

When I chose this book, I was expecting a sort of punch-fest through Montreal with maybe some interesting side information next to a Dirty Harry style plot. Even with that, I was surprised at how fun this book was to read though. The reader follows Constable Eddie Dougherty around 1970âs Montreal as he chases, questions and assaults criminals in pursuit of various crimes. Dougherty navigates his career through the police as an Anglo in a French run department and is looking for a promotion. Meanwhile working out his relationship with his girlfriend while the famed 1976 Montreal Olympics change the city.

As someone with an interest in Montreal and history, I found the book really engaging on a few levels - there were the detective stories of Dougherty and information sprinkled throughout about Montreal and some of the major developments. It seems like McFetridge has a pretty strong interest in the city, even if heâs not exactly from there. There are tons of music references too, with more than a couple flying over my young head. In fact, the book starts off with a quote from The Band about saving your neck or your brother and while that didnât fit into the main character, Doughertyâs story, it was a nice motif throughout.

The characters were ok, I liked them all for the most part. They tended to be a little too on the nose for the time period; there was a divorced couple, and lots of stuff with Quebecâs potential separation that felt a little one dimensional. It didnât detract from the story though and I think it was appropriate for the genre. The ending felt a bit rushed (doesnât it always though?) and a bit deus ex machina but the rest of the book was so good that it didnât really matter.

After reading this one, I think Iâd like to read more of the Dougherty series.

Members Reviews:

Intriguing, Compelling & Suspenseful - Must Read!

I was instantly drawn into this book from the first chapter. It is an excellent story although at the same time it is very disturbing as it is based on true events. The story and characters are very well written and developed which draws you in and makes you feel as if you part of the story. The author is very descriptive with his writing, allowing you to develop a picture of what is happening and what each character may look like. The story is fast paced, with plenty of twists and turns and does not give you the opportunity to lose interest. I felt that I was always wanting more and was disappointed when it ended.

Brian Troxell did an excellent job with his performance of this book. He has great pace, tone and inflection. He adds to the suspense in this book and brings the story to life in your minds' eye. He portrays each character with emotion, allowing you to picture in your imagination what they may look like and makes you feel as if you know the characters personally. Overall, I enjoyed this book and look forward to more work from Mr. Muthiah and Mr. Troxell.

Gripping story about child abductions in Bay Area

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

Tell My Dad is a quick and smooth 5 hour read centering on child and young adult abductions and college-age girl victimization. Along the way there is a Superman vigilante-type character who kills perpetrators and leaves the words "stay away". There are also a myriad of additional characters, including police officers, family members, and a college student investigating the abductions. It's a busy read.

Would you recommend Tell My Dad to your friends? Why or why not?

I gave this book a 3 due to the incredulity of the setup. According to this book, there is at least one victimization every day in a metro area, and Superman manages to figure out and kill every perpetrator. This story would have been better if set up in a fantastical setting, rather than starting out with the statement that the book was inspired by true events.

Have you listened to any of Brian Troxells other performances before? How does this one compare?

I really enjoyed narrator Brian Troxell's voice--smooth and enthusiastic without being over the top. I did not particularly like his feminine voices or ethnic voices which is the reason for 4 stars.

Do you think Tell My Dad needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

Yeah, go the fantastical route and put the vigilante and Samantha in a series together.

Any additional comments?

I received this book in exchange for an honest review.
