The police say "involuntary manslaughter" but a tragic accident turns out instead to be murder, plain and simple. And San Francisco Homicide Inspector Stanley Korski, on leave from the force and his unrequited love for fellow detective Tom Danzel, walks right into a murderer's web of treachery. Wrong, Stanley. Deadly wrong.

This is the second book in this series, and I have to say it worked really well jumping right into this one not having read the first book. We got enough backstory that it never felt like I missed anything vital. I’d say this book, and probably series, falls under the gay mystery rather than the mm category. It lacks this rosy shimmer se typically see in the mm romance genre. It had a grittier feel to it.

Stanley is a homicide cop, and he’s out and proud. Something that makes life in the department a hassle, to the point where he’s considering quitting. But before he could, he was invited to Bear Mountain to investigate a murder as a favour to his childhood friend. A friend whose brother was accused of murdering the victim.

Tom and Stanley’s relationship really rubbed me the wrong way. It was just so uneven and off. There was no genuine caring, just want and need – the selfish kind. Now I’m not a fan of sex scenes to begin with, but the (thankfully few) that was in this book made me downright uncomfortable. I mean to each their own, but for me both parties should at least enjoy the act, or something is wrong…

You know what the really strange thing is? I’m not sure I like even one of the characters in this book, main or otherwise. The one character that made me feel anything was the murder victim, but that one’s a bust for any future stories – for obvious reasons 😉 And yet this story was still strangely compelling, it drew me in and I do want to know more, so I will be listening to more books in the series.

Guy Veryzer has a very melodic voice and he was very pleasant to listen to. He lulls you into the book and makes you see the events before you. However a lot of the times he put emphasis on the wrong part of a sentence, ignored punctuation (if there were any, as I listened to the audio, it’s impossible to tell) so many lines, both dialogue and narration were just off and at times didn’t make sense. During those instances it felt like he was trying to read as many words as possible as fast as possible. Other times though, the narration was spot on which is why I still mostly enjoyed this book.

I'm intrigued

I truly enjoyed the storyline and the way the title was used within. I didn’t figure out who the killer was until the near end. While the main character was gay, I believe the author over used the stereotype in showing the affect of the receiving side. For me, the over usage held back the fifth star.

Good mystery

Well I enjoy Stanley and Tom for the most part though Tom’s reactions to the developing relationship annoy me a lot of the time. The mystery was enjoyable and kept me entertained though there were times the characters annoyed me a lot. But a good mystery to enjoy and kept me entertained. Hopefully the relationship will develop more as the story progresses

Good mystery

Manslaughter Stanley says murder. Good detailed mystery, with good audio to go along with it. Given audio for my voluntary review

Good

Where does Deadly Wrong rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This book is the second in Victor Banis' Deadly series and it is one of my favorites of his. It makes up for the ending on Deadly Nightshade and continues the series. I don't do spoilers but it is fun and Stanley is a hoot in it. Also, this vocal performance is much more in line with the characters. While I love the book Deadly Nightshade I did not particularly like the narrator. This really enjoyed this narrator and would highly recommend the book.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Stanley

Well, I didn't enjoy this one as much as the first one.

Part of it was the case, which wasn't very interesting. But I also didn't like Tom very much here, and neither how Stanley reacted to him. One thing is a compromise, another, very different one, is resignation. And that was, exactly as it sounded to me for most of the story.

But my main problem here is the narration. It was awful. Everybody sounded whining. All the time. Everybody sounded like a petulant, bratty teen in serious need of a wake-up call, no matter what they were saying, no matter what emotion they were feeling, they always sounded the same :/

I still will give a chance to the third book... later.

Not as good as the first one

What did you love best about Deadly Wrong?

Stanley, of course. Love his sense of humor.

Have you listened to any of Guy Veryzer’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, this is a first. A far improvement over Deadly Nightshade narrator. Any chance of a do over???

Any additional comments?

Good storyline and was surprised on who the culprit actually was.

Good Whodoneit.
