About this listen

When quiet Ellen Lang enters Elvis Cole's Disney-deco office, she's lost something very valuable - her husband and young son. The case seems simple enough, but Elvis isn't thrilled. Neither is his enigmatic partner and firepower Joe Pike.

Their search down the seamy side of Hollywood's studio lots and sculptured lawns soon leads them deep into a nasty netherworld of drugs and sex - and murder. Now the case is getting interesting, but it's also turned ugly. Because everybody, from cops to starlets to crooks, has declared war on Ellen and Elvis.

It took a few chapters to get into the narrator, but he grew on me, the story is good but the style is great

fresh writing style

Weaker story line than other Cole/Pike novels & not enough Pike. And this narrator is extremely poor & detracts from the quality. I won't be another book that uses this narrator

Not to the usual standard....<br /><br />

I managed to go 7 chapters but the narrator is so bad that I just ended up throwing it away. Hopefully I can return it. The narrator needs reading lessons.

Don't bother

The story was okay, but I found the narrator hard to listen to. I may have enjoyed the book more with a different voice.

Hard to listen to.
