Defenestration in Denver

Capital City Murders, Book 10

De: Troy Lambert, Stuart Gustafson

Narrado por: Joseph L. Stevenson

They pushed them from the window, and Nick saw it all. He even took photos.

On his way to the airport to pick up his friends visiting him on his trip around the country to photograph every state capitol building, a protest in Denver turned violent. The police question him, the media becomes involved, and Nick is again in the middle of a mystery against his will.

His girlfriend is visiting, too.

At the same time, his long-distance girlfriend Sandra is visiting him in Denver along with the friend from Seattle who got him the assignment in the first place. To spend time with them, he needs to get himself out of this mystery.

But his photos hold a clue to the perpetrators, but he has no idea who he can trust, and the media and the police no longer trust him. Will he be able to convince them in time and still complete his assignment?

You won’t be able to stop until the heart-wrenching ending.

Baskerville Book Reviews

Once again, I find the use of the word “supper” to be out of place. I don’t know anybody in the age range of these characters who use that word. The authors did a good job of working the mystery into the plot while not shoving Shaggy’s friends off to the side. It’s nice to see Velma and Daphne make appearances and get some character development.

While I’m not super into the taking pictures of buildings aspect of the story, it does get pushed off to the side a little but this time around. It seems as if there’s rarely a balance between that aspect of the story, the mystery, and character development.

As usual, the narrator does a passable job. I never had an issue telling who was speaking, but it wasn’t anything special.

Another well-written story from a very good author

Defenestration in Denver: Capital City Murders #10, my thirteenth read from author Troy Lambert. After reading Silenced in Salt Lake: Capital City Murders Book #11, my first read from author Troy Lambert, I wanted to read more in the series and this one doesn't disappoint. I was given an Audible copy of this book and am voluntarily reading & reviewing it. As always, Joseph L. Stevenson's narration adds to the book's enjoyment. I look forward to reading more in this series & from this author. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).
