About this listen

After his father dies, Grayson Dyle, the owner of a fledgling product design firm, observes his mother hiding an envelope in the casket. He retrieves the letter, revealing that he and his brother, Dean, a home automation guru, were adopted. Eager to learn more, he submits a DNA sample online and connects with a prominent attorney who claims to be their father and who tells the brothers their birth mother died as she was giving Grayson life.

When the attorney is brutally murdered, Grayson has little time to mourn the loss of two fathers because he quickly becomes a prime suspect and the killer’s next target. The brothers investigate and soon discover their mother died suspiciously as well. Their search for justice leads them to a local Catholic Bishop, whose stonewalling and lies are designed to protect the Church and keep family secrets hidden. As Grayson struggles to save his business from collapse, he must overcome his internal conflicts about being adopted, prevent his brother from going off the rails, and find the design flaws in the murderer’s plans before he or Dean becomes the next victim.

Good Mystery Story

i liked how the author incorporated his childhood upbringing in the catholic religion into the storyline. Having grown up in the same era as the author, I appreciated his apprehensions about his interactions with the clergy. The story definitely has its twists and turns. It holds your attention all the way to the end.

An Absolutely Sensational First Publication

Joe Golemo has proven with"Design Flaws" that he has a place at the Minnesota murder/mystery author table with John Sanford, the late Vince Flynn, William Kent Krueger, Roger Stelljes, and David Housewright to name only a few. I cannot wait for more to read in the Grayson Dyle mystery series.

The narrative was clear, at a good pace, with just the right amount of emotion, humor, reality, sarcasm, romance, and irony. Without giving the plot away, The topic of adoption was the prism in which many of the actions were viewed. Having personally lived through that process in the 1950s, I could identify with the protagonists. The book was well-balanced and remained focused in telling a captivating and page-turning thriller rather than an underlying political narrative or agenda.

Joe has set the bar high for subsequent books in this series. I can't wait to read them! Thanks for your perseverance to complete the book! Congratulations on a Home Run!
