About this listen

A cop finds the body of the man who abused him long ago, in this “dark, noir thriller echoing the best works of Hammett and Lehane, [yet] altogether original” (Stephen J. Golds, author of Always the Dead).

Marcus Kemp is a beat cop living a normal life in San Diego, California—until the day he makes a shocking discovery: a dead body in the trunk of a stolen car. Worse, the victim turns out to be the man who abused him as a child. Marcus instinctively wants to help the killer get away with murder and, disregarding his police oath, will stop at nothing to make it happen. With both his job and freedom in jeopardy, Marcus’s investigation leads him to an unexpected suspect, and he is soon faced with an impossible decision. Can he finally bury the past before it drags him under?

Great book, great plot. Two things stuck out for me: first, I am a San Diego native and the author did my town justice, hitting all the right sites and experiences. And second, I am a 40-year San Diego reserve police officer, and the author nailed the cop stuff too.

This was a great book and performance. The author gave enough details and clarity to paint a picture of the scenes without getting to deep into it. The story as a whole moved along well to keep me entertained and engaged without ever feeling board.
