Publisher's summary

What’s a nice, proper dame like Joan Parker doing in a place like Dick Moonlight’s office? The scar running down her face - from the business end of an axe - has something to do with it. Shortly after the attack that killed her husband and left her for dead, she pointed the finger at her son, Christopher, who now sits in jail.

But the woman insists the police have it all wrong - Christopher didn’t do it - and she just needs the private eye to prove it. Moonlight knows mothers will say anything to protect their kids. He also knows how the police can take a mistake and run with it. Having been nearly dead a time or two himself makes Moonlight a little more empathetic. He takes the case, and soon the clues lead him toward something more sinister than he’s ever seen before.

This series is really special

I listened to books seven and eight in this series and loved it enough to want to go back and get the early stories. I was surprised to learn that RC Bray was the narrator (love him!) and that just made the listen that much more enjoyable.

Moonlight is on the hunt for the truth. Did a son take an ax to his father's and mother's head? The quest to find the answer takes Moonlight down some very dark and disturbing roads. The ick factor was seriously out of control with this listen.

This was a great listen with an ending that was totally worth the time spent. Loved it!

Mesmerizing !!

"Vincent Zandri's Murder by Moonlight" is a superior mystery novel in all respects. Fine prose, terrific suspense, believable characters, and one of the most unexpected and satisfying conclusions I've read in a long time. Highly recommended."

A new series for me; narrator a fave of mine

I was over the moon to have discovered the Dick Moonlight series by excellent author Vincent Zandri. I have had several books narrated by R.C. Bray, a favorite of mine. This series promises more adventures by private investigator Dick Moonlight with his quick wit and humor. I’m looking for more with both author and narrator, a perfect match. I can’t imagine anyone narrating this series other than Bray. This investigation is a compelling and addictive tale with twists, turns and surprises throughout. I was lucky to buy this for a reasonable $7.16. I prefer to pay for lower priced books and save my credits for pricey audiobooks. Highly recommended. Worth a credit. Epic!

Who played Lizzie Borden on the Parkers?

How many times do you find a series or character that not only grabs your attention and provides unending entertainment, but fills your reading/listening experience with snarky humor? Well, prior to finding the Dick Moonlight series books and series that contained all of the previous items were few and far between. However, since discovering the Dick Moonlight series and Vin Zandri’s other stories finding each of these items in a single book is the regular occurrence. Of course, each Dick Moonlight story is filed with an ample amount of snark, a very good mystery, most have a bit or more of adult entertainment and each is populated by characters who each have deep flaws, not just Moonlight.

Murder by Moonlight is the latest of my forays in this series and listening to it narrated by the great R C Bray took it to a level reading alone wouldn’t have achieved. While I have a well-developed imagination, when R C Bray is involved, my imagination goes crazy with living inside the story. So far of all of the Moonlight stories I’ve read or listened to, Murder by Moonlight was the most complex as far as figuring out who the bad guy was and why in this case the murder occurred. Since I hate spoilers, I’m not going to say more about the story, other than if you enjoy a good murder mystery investigated by a deeply flawed but likeable PI, give Murder by Moonlight a read or listen.
