Summary

Private detective Brett Cornell decides to go on vacation and hits the sunny, golden shoreline of the Atlantic Ocean where he quickly captures the three "A's" (the attention, admiration, and affections) of many of the lovely young bikini-clad beauties as he could ever desire! So, what could possibly go wrong?

Well - as Brett himself would say - as sure as rain is wet and water is...well...wet, Brett's self-appointed reign as "King of the Beach" is soon threatened when a few of the local tough guys decide to engage him in a bit of fisticuffs so that it doesn't take long before the unscrupulous bastard himself begins to catch a whiff of murder in the salty sea air. Only this time, he himself may very well be the intended victim!

When in Rome, do as the Eskimos, right?

Even though Brett believes it 'must be perfectly great to be me,' he has had an harrowing year, culminating in the murder of the client he'd been engaged to protect whilst he'd been otherwise engaged (if you catch my drift). So he decided to stay on and enjoy the beach for a while before going home to Rhode Island.
And, being Brett, he catches the eye (and other parts) of the ladies and generally causes mayhem.

Another perfect combination of author and narrator as Travis Henry Carter becomes that unscrupulous bastard, now also known as 'that punk bastard know-it-all punk bastard', the gloriously moustachioed Brett Cornell. With his fabulously sardonic accented voice, Travis Carter recounts Brett's story, first person, holding nothing back, and gives very distinctive voicings to all the other characters both male and female. As always a superb performance in this ridiculously funny story of the bastard we all love to despise (and secretly love and admire for his totally self satisfied uncouth awfulness, from the distance of a page in a book, anyway).

I just love this entire series of stories and was fortunate in being freely gifted a complimentary copy of Beach Bum Brett, by the rights holder, at my request, via Audiobook Boom. Thank you so much. This is number eight in the series but completely standalone - though I recommend starting at the beginning simply because they are all just so good. Only one more book still to come. Then what will we all do without our blond Adonis?
