Old Money

A Jake Crosby Thriller, Book 3

De: Bobby Cole

Narrado por: Jeremy Arthur

Jake Crosby has traded in a stockbroker's suit and tie for a standard-issue uniform. As a newly minted Mississippi game warden, he has two tough cases to cut his teeth on - the ongoing robbery of wealthy hunters and the ruthless search for a rumored hidden fortune.

According to local gossip, several million dollars have been missing since the conviction of local conman Bronson Bolivar, and following his death in prison, his two grown children have torn his property apart looking for the funds. As Jake searches for the robber who targets well-to-do outdoorsmen, he finds a trail leading to the Bolivars. But the allure of quick cash also draws unexpected interest from both Bronson's former cellmate and an upstanding federal judge. Will Jake understand the severity of the situation in time or get caught up in a web of deceit?

Fun read with interesting characters

Good plot, good narration and an interesting array of characters. I enjoyed it during my daily exercise. It made the time past quickly.

another great in the trilogy from Bobby

great book and continues Jake's adventure. can't wait to see more from Bobby Cole great read. make sure to read the dummy line and moon under foot.

Short Read

Interesting story with good character development but not up to.par with some of Cole's other more suspenseful tales that keep the reader on edge. At the end it felt almost like a short story.

Loved the series.

It is difficult writing book reviews because everyone has different ideas on what makes a book enjoyable and/or entertaining. A narrator can make or break a book. This narrator was great! I really enjoyed all three books. When I don’t find myself rolling my eyes at dumb story lines, skipping past ridiculous sex scenes where the lovers must have invented orgasms, all the main characters have gorgeous bodies (like overweight people can’t have great sex) or women always need a man to rescue them, then it is a pretty darn good book in my opinion. These hit the mark. I would recommend and I would listen to them again. Now I am off to find more books written by Bobby Cole and/or read by this narrator!

Not great literature, but light and fun suspense

This is my second Bobby Cole novel. The first was The Rented Mule. Old Money is Book 3 in the Jake Crosby series. The series is set in northern Mississippi. Old Money is a worthwhile listen.

Inconsistent

The author clearly didn't do any research before writing this book. First he says that the Port of Call restaurant in New Orleans is in the Garden district, which it is not, then he says it's in the French Quarter, it's on the very outer perimeter. Secondly he talks about the robber in the woods cocking a pistol but then fires a revolver when striking a victim. They are both hand guns and both shoot bullets, but pistols and revolvers are very different, anyone with a basic understanding of weapons knows this. I like that the author uses the south for the settings in his stories and they have an even flow. Although there were a few inconsistencies, I will probably check out another one

It was a a great read

I enjoyed it very much I choose the read and listen the reader was terrific

Great story

Great story. Some of the characters make really stupid decisions that makes you roll your eyes, but it’s still a good book. The writing could be better, but still good. But the author made a mistake that bugged me, he mentions two movies that wouldn’t have been playing at the theater at the same time. They weren’t released in the same year. Just one of my quirky pet peeves. I still enjoyed the book.

Good book

I stared reading this author from a recommendation from audible and have not one regret. These are not real complex stories but the mystery is entertaining and characters very likeable.

Another Great Book from Bobby Cole

Fun, exciting, suspenseful ! Can not wait for the next Jake Crosby mystery by Bobby Cole
