Story4.5 out of 5 stars 919
With the closing of the Harlan County, Kentucky coalmines, marijuana has become the biggest cash crop in the state. A hundred pounds of it can gross three-hundred thousand dollars, but that’s chump change compared to the quarter million a human body can get you - especially when it’s sold off piece-by-piece. So when Dickie and Coover Crowe, dope-dealing brothers known for sampling their own supply, decide to branch out into the body business, it’s up to U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens to stop them.

Would you listen to Raylan again? Why?
I enjoyed the TV series based on these books, and so read them afterward. Enjoyed the stories and the narrater did a very good job. Recommend them to those who have seen the series, and if you haven't seen it, you should.

What made the experience of listening to You Suck the most enjoyable?
The story is interesting, and funny, and the narrater, Susan Bennett, makes the book that much more enjoyable by her way of reading and doing character voices. Awesome job. Very funny!

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 51
To the Jockey Club, the racing world would be a better place without Julius Apollo Filmer. An expert in corruption with a devastating line in witness intimidation, and proving to be a slippery character to put behind bars. Baffled, they call in undercover security agent Tor Kelsey to keep an unflinching eye on Filmer and his associates. A mission that takes him from the finest of English racecourses to the wild Canadian interior, on a luxury transcontinental train journey to end them all.

Dick Does It Again

Good fun read...takes place partially in Canada!

What did you love best about The Edge?
Dick Francis stories always entertain me. Mystery surrounding horses make for a good read for a horse lover. I particularly enjoyed the train mystery portion of the story, and that the train ride takes place in Canada. The only small and silly issue I had was the VIA Rail pronounced as individual letters instead of 'via' the word, which is how us Canadians pronounce it.
