The Grey Man: Twilight

De: JL Curtis

Narrado por: Marcus Barton

Never count an old man out, even when he's hanging up his hat!

Deputy Sheriff John Cronin is looking forward to a quiet retirement, working on the ranch, and handing it off to his granddaughter Jesse. And he's got to pass on a generation worth of investigations, but it's not as easy as handing over the case files and the keys. First, he's got to train Aaron Miller to fill his role, from the way to dress for rural juries to the finer points of stakeouts and murder investigations, Texas style.

Between the oil patch workers and the cartel's drug runners, there are plenty of loose ends for him to tie off...or terminate....

Great read.

The Grey Man: Twilight is an excellent book that you should read. It was a truly enjoyable experience for me. The book is 5 out of 5 stars in my book.

No old men for this country

Well, ain't that just the way of things? Here I am, sittin' in this ol' rocking chair, wearier than a dog on a summer day, listenin' to that audiobook they call "The Grey Man: Twilight." Now, I ain't one for fancy words or long tales, but I reckon I'll give ya my two cents on this here story.

Deputy Sheriff John Cronin, he's the heart and soul of this tale, hangin' up his badge and lookin' to pass on the torch to the next generation. Retirement's supposed to be all about peace and quiet, a time to put your feet up and let the world keep on spinnin'. But life ain't so kind, and John finds himself trainin' up a young feller named Aaron Miller, showin' him the ropes of the lawman trade. From jury rooms to stakeouts, he's gotta teach him the ropes, Texas style. Lord knows, that's a challenge tougher than a rattlesnake's hide.

Seems like trouble just can't let an old man rest. Oil workers, cartel runners, and more dang loose ends than a frayed lasso - they're all a part of John's last ride. And the author, JL Curtis, he spins a tale that's as gritty as desert sand and as sharp as a Lone Star sunset. You can practically smell the dust in the air and taste the sweat drippin' down your brow as you follow John's footsteps.

Now, Marcus Barton, he's the one narratin' this yarn, and let me tell ya, his voice is like a steady horse under you. He captures the weary spirit of an old lawman who's seen it all and done even more. It's like he's whisperin' the story to you in the dim light of a smoky saloon.

So, if you're lookin' for a tale that'll take you through the twists and turns of Texas law, with a dash of retirement and a sprinkle of never-give-up attitude, give "The Grey Man: Twilight" a listen. Just remember, life might be slow and tired, but it ain't ever done throwin' challenges your way. And that, my friend, is the true spirit of the West.

Now, if y'all don't mind, I'll close my eyes for a spell. This old lawman's got some restin' to do.

good

This was interesting and filled with danger and suspense. It's fast paced and flows well. I enjoyed the relationships and seeing some honesty (the gun appraisal ). I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest opinion. The narrator did a great job bringing it to life.

Great Modern Day Western Lawmen

I really enjoyed this book that wad following a family where several were law men & woman.
Several if the characters are ex military before getting into law enforcement. Narrator does a Great job with the various characters voices and the entire storyline.

A Lawman Passes the Badge to the Next Generation

Great procedural story about an aging Texas lawman who has to decide to hang up his holster and train the next generation. Filled with different side-stories, they are tied neatly together. Marcus Barton delivers in this story. My favorite part is when the sheriff has inner monologues about how he realizes he isn't getting younger and Marcus makes me feel his pain.

Weak

Not recommended, story line all over the place, seemed unprofessional written, sorry could not get into book
