About this listen

In the latest from “mystery master” Walter Mosley, a family member’s terminal illness leads P.I. Joe King Oliver to the investigation of his life: tracking down his long-lost father, and meanwhile, a new case pits King’s professional responsibility against his own moral code. (TheWashington Post)

Joe King Oliver’s beloved Grandma B has found a tumor, and at her age, treatment is high-risk. She’s lived life fully and without regrets, and now has only a single, dying wish: to see her long-lost son. King has been estranged from his father, Chief Odin Oliver, since he was a young boy. He swore to never speak to the man again when he was taken away in handcuffs. But now, Grandma B’s pure ask has opened King’s heart, and through his hunt, he gains a deeper understanding of his father as a complicated, righteous man—a man defined by women, a man protected by women, a man he wants to know. Although Chief was released from prison years ago, he’s been living underground ever since. Now, King must not only find his father, but prove his innocence, and protect the future of his entire family.

Simultaneously, King finds himself in a moral bind. Marigold Hart, the wife of a powerful Californian billionaire, has gone missing, along with their seven-year-old daughter. Orr is brutish and dangerous, and King realizes after locating her that it’s in her best interest to stay hidden. But are his motives pure? There is something magnetic about Marigold; he can’t help but want her near.

In the latest installment in the Joe King Oliver series, no good deed goes unpunished. Emotionally stirring, pulse-pounding, and undeniably sexy, Been Wrong So Long It Feels Like Right shows Walter Mosley at his best.

Great story which has quickly become one of my favorites by Walter Mosley. I love listening to Dion Graham and in my opinion is one of the best.

Definitive Walter Mosley

In my opinion you can never go wrong with Mosley and having Dion Graham narrate King Oliver was always the right way to go. The story woven by Mosley gives us the dynamics of how the definition of family constantly changes. Along with how “wrongs” committed will hinder the human in one way or another. Enjoy the series. Worth the credits.

This was a good thriller with good detective work. The narrator voice was inviting, which made you want to go a little bit deeper into the story. The book has a good storyline and it keeps your attention. As soon as you can you wanna come back to it until you finish

This taste of escapism is exactly what I needed . The characters feel like people I know.

Walt does it again

The 3rd book in the King Oliver series, I enjoyed the dualing mysteries, the characters they introduced. But the resolutions for both were weak, and the twists introduced in the 3rd act were equally weak and wacky. Still, Walter Mosely is one of my favorite, so I'll still read the next installment.
