Narrator is a revelation
Set during Mardi Gras in New Orleans, it felt like an extra character in this dark thriller. Felix, the disappointing son from a rich and dysfunctional family, is grieving the death of his brother from an apparent suicide until he starts to suspect that all might not be as it seems and starts investigating what really happened. He puts himself in some dangerous situations but thanks to the grumpy detective Melancon and his family butler, he manages to survive his own poor choices and uncover the truth.
The characters were all interesting and complicated, I particularly liked Tomas’ the butler’s characters though I found I was often yelling at Felix for doing idiotically dangerous things.
The narrator, Gary Bennett, was a revelation – his character voices were spectacular and felt like an entire cast. He really added a sense of suspense to a slow burn which I think I personally would have struggled to read on my own.

Thrilling
This book had me hooked from the start and kept me going through the day as I listened while driving and then later back at home. I simply had to get to the end for closure. Love the ending which paves the way for more books in the series. I can't wait until they become available in audiobook format.
The narration by Gary Bennett was spot on, well paced and a pleasure to listen to.

Thriller
Loved the narration of Gary Bennett, perfect for this thriller.
Felix is searching for purpose, he is know to take drugs , has a job in a kitchen restaurant . He is the black sheep of a wealthy family. His life is shaken when is brother is killed on the train tracks . He knows its murder, but who is going to believe him.
We have corrupt police officers, family, doctors and drugs.
Loved this
