Özet

A floating coffin draws Brooklyn homicide detective Jack Leightner into a murder investigation in hidden parts of New York Harbor and the old Brooklyn Navy Yard in this second novel in Edgar Award nominee Gabriel Cohen’s acclaimed crime series.

At a bed and breakfast in upstate New York, Brooklyn homicide detective Jack Leightner is doing his best to propose to his girlfriend. When the hotel staff loses the engagement ring, romance is put on hold and Leightner returns to Brooklyn to tangle once more with death. A boy has been found floating by the Red Hook pier in a handmade coffin that suggests a burial at sea. But when a second victim turns up, Leightner senses a vile pattern.The last time he worked Red Hook, the old waterfront was a ghost town. Now, gentrification is reshaping the quiet cobblestoned streets, with big-box stores and condos being built where longshoremen once lived, worked, loved, and died. But even in this shiny new Brooklyn, Leightner knows, there are corners where darkness reigns.

Seen entirely from the point of view of homicide detective Jack Leightner, recently shot but recovered, mostly, in the aftermath of 9/11, and now in love with the girlfriend who helped him through it, the reader follows his life through both personal and police events starting with the discovery of the body of a ten years old boy found floating in an homemade woven coffin. Cleverly written, to incorporate Jack's hopes and expectations as he works the cases which come his way and his desire to propose marriage to Michelle, plus fears of vulnerability as he goes about his job, this feels like an authentic peek inside Jack's head. Chris Sorensen narrates, finding authentic and different voices for each character. A good performance, if a little slow in delivery.

Free to download with the Audible Plus programme, this book, part two of a series but fine as a stand alone, is definitely recommended.

this has to be one of the worst audiobooks I have ever listened to. The readers delivery sends me to sleep and the plot lines are weak to say the least.

Not for me
