On one particular Friday, Brady is in the parking lot of the HEB when he witnesses a vintage Rolls Royce slowly crunch into a parked truck. The driver of the Rolls is slumped in his seat. Brady tells an observer to call 911 while he performs CPR. Even though the EMTs arrive quickly, the gentleman dies at the hospital.
The man who passes is Sanford Lowell III, a wealthy member of an oil and gas family who is Hill Country Medical Center’s largest donor. In his will, he leaves over $150 million to the hospital. However, the will gets contested by the mother of an intellectually disabled woman who is purported to be Sandy Lowell’s child from an affair years ago. To complicate matters, the pathologist discovers at autopsy that Lowell was completely healthy before his death. And shortly thereafter, the lawyer representing Lowell’s interests dies suddenly, in exactly the same way.
Brady finds himself involved in trying to solve these mysteries, as he always seems to do. But once he finds out that Lowell may have been poisoned by medications used for cosmetic surgery, and that his own wife is a patient as well, he pulls out the stops to get to the bottom of the problem. Was Sandy Lowell poisoned? Was his lawyer? And is there enough money at stake that someone would murder two people as an act of avarice?

When Jenna Blake starts her freshman year at Somerset University, she's not only living on her own for the first time, she's moving closer to the father she never really knew. It's an exciting time, filled with new faces and new challenges, not to mention parties and boys and … corpses? Jenna is torn about her future. She'd like to be a doctor like her mother, but she can't stand the sight of blood. Her father, a criminology professor, thinks he has the answer—and sends her to interview for a job with the Medical Examiner—an interview that takes place in the middle of an autopsy!

Dr. Jim Bob Brady, orthopedic surgeon and amateur sleuth, is spending a one-month sabbatical trying to decide whether to remain in his position at University Hospital in Houston, Texas, or move to the Hill Country and work in a more relaxed atmosphere, now that he’s the recipient of a windfall legacy. Scaling back would provide him much more free time to golf and spend time with his wife, Mary Louise, and rest, as his wife so aptly puts it. They are renting a condo on the waters of Lake LBJ while making potentially life-changing decisions. As the sabbatical winds down, Jim Bob comes ...

To complicate matters, the ...

It was a good story well developed characters and plot. The AI reading was a little lack luster but it was ok.
The ending could have been developed more, takrn more twists he coukd have been more persistent for found evidence, it lacked umph.

Liked the Mystery
While I love Mysteries I need to remind myself to NOT listen to any Virtual Voice. It ruins the story when you spend most of your time trying to listen and comprehend the sentences and who is saying what, it takes away the fun of a book.
Only good thing for a Virtual voice is a cook book, if even that.
