Last Dance

The Sam Carver Series

De: Jeffrey Fleishman

Narrado por: Richard Ferrone

A famous Russian ballerina lies dead in a downtown loft. No marks, no bruises. The suspects are many: spies, hit men, a gunrunner, and one of Hollywood's most powerful and mysterious film producers. Detective Sam Carver becomes entangled in a perilous reignited Cold War between Moscow and Washington. He chases leads from Europe to Africa.

But Carver faces other demons, too. He is haunted by Dylan Cross, a killer who got away a year earlier. She knows his secrets, whispers to him in his dreams. His obsession with Dylan threatens his new case and his relationship with Lily Hernandez, a uniform cop who wants to work as his partner.

Last Dance explores dangers within and without, and how we reconcile the damage, love, and things lost, in a Los Angeles that is as tempting and alluring as it is cruel and sinister.

loved it

I'm very invested in this writer/artist. I look forward for the next book. & the voice actor (Richard Ferrone) is wonderful.

political commentary

If I wanted political commentary in my fiction, I would watch the news on TV.

Too much political hate.

The story line is decent but sounds a lot like a Lucas Davenport novel. Porsche driving detective in a big city. A lot of name dropping of celebrities as well. Overall, I enjoyed the book but was turned off by the Trump hate speech. Wouldn't have liked that kind of talk about any political figure. Just wasn't necessary and didn't add to the story.

Meh 🤷🏻‍♂️

Overall the story had a good plot but the repetitive political rants were distracting and irrelevant to the story. I understand that a writer’s personal opinions and beliefs are naturally going to be interwoven into anything they create but in this particular book it felt awkwardly forced into the storyline and a bit excessive. Seemed at times that the author was trying to be more of a political commentator than a storyteller.

Excellent story

I loved the characters and the interactions. Well done.
I could have done without all the liberal bs with the elections. Now we know absolutely that it was all made up by liberals and pushed down our throats by our letter corps (fbi, cia, nsa, etc). Plus the flagrant squashing of our first amendment with our government using a third party to silence the majority of people in the US. Move on and grow up.

noir for now

loved the voice, the musings, the contemporary themes with a feel of times gone by. gimme more!

Brilliant!

More to follow later today. This was available at no cost in Audible Plus catalogue.

Wow, Grisham and Conley move over

I’m so grateful this book was in the plus catalog for Audible. The depth of research, history, discovery, and pearls of wisdom are all present in this book. He opens our insight to the politics and possible inner workings of Russia, artists of a higher level, and the every day life of people dealing with Alzheimer’s and the gifts that they can give to their caregivers, as well as the psychological insights of people and how they deal with Trama-sometimes in a vigilante way that empowers them and others to certain forms of justice moving throughout the book. hope he writes a book or series of the pearls of wisdom brought to light in this worlds new holacost of the corruption, manipulations, propaganda and future justice for all the people around the world that have died needlessly and current and future generations that will suffer needlessley. Most important, future virtuous changes/insights to our world, so these holocausts don’t happen it again. Regardless, thank you for the pearls of wisdom you awaken people too.

Can't Wait to Listen to the 3rd Book!

Keeps the listener eagerly waiting for the next chapter. Expect the third will be best.

slow paced

voice threw me off. sounds like a 85 year old man. Story was decent. 1st one was better
