Summary

Leland

Stopping a robbery was only the beginning—to fun, action-filled mayhem. Jackson’s afraid that I’m running headfirst into trouble (again), but I’m not… I’m running gun-first into it. When one of the robbers who’s really just a kid comes begging for my help, I definitely have no choice but to help him.

The kid is convinced his brother has been wrongly accused, and while Jackson My Love might be over there going, “You were hired to look into it, not to go undercover, sink a boat, and hunt down a gang,” I feel like he’s simply confused… because I’m gonna hunt down TWO gangs (and is that a car chase I see?).

Jackson

A simple “Whodunnit” turns into us being targeted by multiple bad guys as we run after them instead of away from them, dragging Cassel and Henry—and some others—along for the ride. I really can’t be the only one who sees the issue here, but… as I watch them race into danger, I’m starting to think I am.

Loving Leland comes easy, but keeping him safe doesn’t because there’s someone trailing Leland who might want to hurt him. The problem is that as Lucas strings us along and tales begin to become tangled, it’s hard to tell who is right and who is wrong.

Contains: Lifejackets used to protect all the wrong things (Leland: all the RIGHT things), the greatest tragedy of ALL TIME (involving The Fence) (even if Jackson doesn’t think so), and the kind of friends that make you realize you don’t need enemies.

Such fun

Story a bit convoluted but absolutely love the characters so brilliantly brought to life by Mr Ferraiuolo and I know I’ll listen to the whole series again and again forever and ever.

amazing as always!

Michael did a fantastic job as always, honestly my favourite narrator ever. This is certainly one of Alice Winters best books, which isn't saying much since they're all brilliant.Enjoyed it so much, laughed almost the whole way through 🤣

5 Stars isn't enough!!

I've read the book and ADORED it and I finally got round to listening to the audio and omg , Michael Ferraiuolo did such a wonderful job with the narration that I was crying with tears of laughter one minute, crying tears of sorrow another and back to tears of laughter again. Leland and Cassel's "singing" will go down in legend and I'll NEVER be able to listen to "My Heart Will Go On" ever again without laughing!!

Audible has forgotten to mark this as book 5

while this is a great book/story, amazon/Audible failed to mark this as book 5 in a series "The Hitmans guide". While it is a fantastic story, these books are better listened to in order. Also worth noting, there is another book {maybe more) as a spin off. This is one of Alice Winters best series.

Hilarious delightful instalment!

Everything; fantastic narration and hilarious novel. The helium sisters and titanic moments were outstanding. If you enjoyed the series so far, this is spot on. More Leyland, Jackson, Cassel, Hunry, et. al! Loved it.

MM Hilarious Leland


You should read these books in order to tell the remarkable, unique story of Leland and Jackson.

As I said in the title, these are hilarious, witty, fun-filled, extraordinary stories you could never pre-empt.

Michael Ferraiuolo does an excellent job of narrating these books; his Leland voices make you smile, if not laugh out loud. Brilliant, I highly recommend these books.

Leland and Jackson

I love Leland's songs, car chases, fences they are hysterical. The antics that they get up to, is so much fun. You just want to join in. Perfect 🥰
