Interesting!

P. I. procedural with Jack Daniels investigating a race horse's death. His thoughts are presented in an interesting way, even with a little singing! At times it was difficult to distinguish between the characters as spoken by the narrator, but overall it was a good story and a good reading!

Great little story

A much better story than the first in the series, Candy Man, and thankfully a different, much better narrator. An entertaining read with a well thought out plot and good characters.

I received a free copy of this audiobook either from the author or a promotion or giveaway and am voluntarily writing an honest and unbiased review.

Excellent !

Well written short detective story.
Excellent Performance .
A beautiful reminder of Hollywood style detective story with the jazz background.
Only wish it was longer but beside that there is no negative that I can find with this creation.
Recommended !!

Enjoyed it but not as much as 1 and 3

The writing again was amazing and you can disappear into the story. I did find the narration to start with very difficult to listen to, but it got better the more into the book and about half way through really enjoyed the narration. I did enjoy books 1 and 3 more but this was very good just not as good as those two which were brilliant.

Jack Daniels is a very interesting character and cant wait to see how his story develops.

I was given this audible book in return for an honest review which I have done.

Jack Daniels is a likable guy.

What's not to like about Jack Daniels. He's got a witty, carefree attitude, and gets the job done. He's a private eye with an amusing attitude. Miguel Rodriguez does a fabulous job of giving his character life. This is a promising series by a talented writer. Thanks, John Holt for the opportunity to review for you.

A stable murder.

I wouldn't say I'm a huge horse racing fan. Don't get me wrong I like horses just not a betting girl. But I found myself invested in this plot. I wanted to know who done it and why. The author and narrator have a way of sucking you in and making you feel like you're helping with this case. As a sort of sidekick almost. Really enjoying this series so far.
