Lady Justice and the Lost Tapes
: Robert Thornhill


I love the adventures of Walter, his friends, and C.R.A.P. The setting in Kansas City is perfect for the story. The listener gets to hear about real estate being snatched up by unscrupulous persons. There are lots of twists and turns and a few surprises. I think my favorite part was the Thanksgiving dinner preparation. I laughed so hard after having finished my own Thanksgiving dinner.The undercover assignments were the best thing since sliced bread!

I look forward to the next book in this series!!!!


The narration was well done.The characters were well portrayed.George Kuch adds great enthusiasm to the story.

Being of an age, (late 50s) it is heartening to see the possibility of continued usefulness if only in fiction. I can identify with the protagonist both in experience and in the vicissitudes of age. I look forward to the continued adventures of Walt and am grateful to Robert Thornhill for the ride. George Kuch is an able narrator and I intend to avail my self of his other audible efforts. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher, Thanks.

I can't get enough of this series! It's terrific! I love Walt Williams and his merry band of C.R.A.P.ers. The narrator, George Kuch, does an amazing job bringing the author's words to life! I'm sad that they've only got three of the books in audio (so far). Keep up the wonderful work!!

Terrific!

Even better than book one

Note: While this is Book 2 in the series, it works perfectly fine as a stand alone novel.

Walt Williams was a retired senior real estate agent but he felt he still had more in him. So he joined the Kansas City police force as part of their senior citizens outreach program. Now he and his partner, Ox, traipse around the more colorful sections of town in this tale. The mafia wants certain real estate freed up and use nearly every dirty trick there is to get people to sell. Meanwhile, one of Walt’s friends uncovered a lost rock and roll treasure that needs to be kept under tight wraps for now.

This was a fun light-hearted murder mystery. There’s lots of corny jokes and the plot is pretty straight forward. The characters are lovable in a good-will-always-win-out sort of way. I really liked how this book had so many seniors in it. Some still work. Some are retired. Several do volunteer duties. Walt’s girlfriend, Maggie, is still working as a realtor and that gives Walt a bit of an advantage as he looks into the unusual circumstances of some recent sales.

Throughout this book, Walt plays dress up, going undercover more than once. The locations of interest to Walt and the police department include some lively bars that cater to the LGBTQ community. While there are plenty of jokes from both Walt and his fellow officers, they felt rather dated, like something an older uncle would say and the next generation would be slightly embarrassed for him.

Speaking of the humor, there’s plenty of it in this book. Everything from a whoopee cushion to a stand-up comedian to one-line zingers to ribbing from fellow officers. Some of it was well timed and funny. Some of it was rather worn and just got a groan from me. Sometimes I felt like the author had a big book of jokes sitting beside him as he worked on this book and he felt obliged to put in at least 3 jokes per chapter.

I did enjoy the main plot concerning the mafia moving in and forcing owners to sell their houses or businesses cheap. The story did a good job of showing the various ways the mafia went about getting their way. They did everything from polite requests to buy outright to dirty trickery to intimidation to torching a place. At first Walt is the only officer that is interested in checking this out but as things escalate, the force in general becomes committed to putting an end to it.

The minor plot line, that dealing with the lost tapes of a rock and roll idol, didn’t really appeal to me. I just wasn’t into the R&R idol and therefore, this chunk of the book didn’t grab me. When the main plot line wrapped up, I still had about 1.5 hours of book to listen to! Well, that was mostly this second minor plot line and a big holiday celebration. They were cute but not nearly as interesting as the mafia.

All in all, it was a fun, quaint little mystery. If you’re looking for something light and, perhaps, a bit predictable, then this would be a good book to check out. For me, it was so-so.

I received a free copy of this book.

The Narration: George Kuch did a good job. He had an unexpected range of voices and even did a decent job with the female voices. His voice really fits well with the variety of seniors. There were a few times where I heard a few mouth noises but they didn’t distract from the narration.

Groan-worthy jokes & dead bodies!

Being a senior citizen comes work a lot of drawbacks. But when you work for the police, life becomes totally surreal. Places are being burned down, many people are being injured or winding up dead. An ex realtor just doesn't stand a chance to be taken seriously when he needs to play act as a gay man or even a transvestite. It doesn't help that his love things it's hilarious. But things are coming to a head in finding the reason and person responsible.
George Kuch is a fantastic narrator whose voice draws you in and keeps you enthralled.
Fantastic audio and story.

Similar to others in the series, book two in the Lady Justice Series takes us on a not-stop ride with senior citizen and police officer Walt Wittman which is full of humor. Just like the others in the series its has an over reaching thread but it’s really feels like a bunch of short stories where Walt moves from one ridiculous issue to the next. If you like the others in the series you’ll like this one as well.
