A Crime of Passion

Joe Dillard, Book 7

By: Scott Pratt

Narrated by: Tim Campbell

A beautiful, young, rising star in the country music world is found dead in a Nashville hotel room.

The owner of her record company is charged with murder.

In the seventh installment of Scott Pratt's best-selling Joe Dillard series, Dillard is hired to travel to Tennessee's capital city to defend Paul Milius, a record company baron accused of strangling Kasey Cartwright, his label's young star. Dillard navigates Nashville's unfamiliar legal system and the world of country music in search of the truth, but he soon finds himself confronted with a web of lies so masterfully woven that he fears he may never find any answers. As the trial begins and the tension mounts, Dillard fears that not only will his client be wrongfully convicted, but that Dillard himself may not survive.

I hope there will be more of this series.

A Crime of Passion is Book 7 in Scott Pratt's extraordinary Joe Dillard series (yes, I know that Audible lists it as Book 6, but that is not correct). I hope it is not the final Joe Dillard novel. Scott Pratt is now on my short list of favorite mystery/thriller authors and is #1 in the legal thriller category. Tim Campbell flawlessly narrates all of the novels in the series.

Highly recommended, but read the series in order.

Gripping

This is book seven of the Joe Dillard series. I have enjoyed the series so far, and this book does not disappoint.

There was less action in this book compared to prior books, but a bit more courtroom drama than the previous book. The book also provides a peek into the recording industry of Nashville, Tennessee. I was a bit surprised by the ending of the story. If you are looking for an interesting legal thriller series, you might want to take a look at this series.

The book is six hours and sixteen minutes. Tim Campbell does an excellent job narrating the book. Campbell is an actor and Audie Award winning audiobook narrator.

Another Pratt winner

Ends wrong

Good story until the end. The know all witness came from nowhere and brought it ta an all to soon conclusion.

Another Home Run By Scott Pratt

What an excellent job Scott Pratt did in writing this series. Every book has had a riveting plot and the characters blend seamlessly from novel to novel. I have a hard time finding a stopping place in all the books because they never cease to hold my attention.

too short

scottpratt is an excellent storyteller much like Grisham. really enjoy that they take place in Tennessee feel like I'm being introduced to the beauty of the mountains and the rural communities my only complaint if any is that the stories are getting too short. can't wait for the next installment

A Crime of Passion

Very good. Everyone loses. So true in real life when hatred rules ones heart and ambition. Thank-you for another thought provoking story.

Loved it!!

I really enjoyed this book. I'll be recommending it
to all my girls. I hope this series continues!

Still good

Not the best Scott Pratt has done. But still good. Good narration as always. Average.
