About this listen
On a deserted road outside Chicago, Dr. Donald Lessard meets a terrible fate. The fiery crash obliterates all evidence of foul play. Private investigator Jack Flynn has once more performed well for his nameless, faceless benefactor.
Suspecting that Lessard’s death was no accident, Dr. Karen Tobin is determined to find out what happened to her mentor.
When a spellbinding woman enters his coffee shop, John Bristol finds himself instantly captivated. In time, the beautiful young chemist stirs an emotional reawakening in the burned-out former prosecutor. Together, Bristol and Tobin are driven to solve the mystery behind the death of one of the nation's leading research scientists. Their pursuit exposes the soulless greed of one of the country's most profitable pharmaceutical companies, while at the same time driving them into each other’s arms.

It's Got it All. Murder Mystery and Romance!
The book is part murder mystery, and part suspense novel, with a nice pinch of romance thrown in.
The Drug Lords delves into the world of Big Pharma whose executives dance to the tune of high corporate profit and high personal gain.
When Dr. Tobin, one of the few not seduced by corporate greed, starts exploring the "accidental" death of one of her co-workers, she soon finds herself the target of a hired assassin. Fortunately, she finds a friend (and eventual lover) in John Bristol, former prosecuting attorney turned coffee shop owner.
Multiple characters throughout the book are well developed and interesting. The story flows smoothly and grips you from start to finish. You will not want to stop listening.
Excellent book and narration!

Addicting!!
Very engrossing book, both the subject matter and the characters. I had to keep listening until I was finished! The Drug Lords offers multiple twists and turns from start to finish.
The story's intensity is nothing short of breathtaking bringing the characters to life and sending you on an emotional roller coaster as Tobin and Bristol fight for the truth and to simply survive...
I highly recommend this as a good, corporate-based murder mystery. Very beautifully done!

Nightmarish narration.
I have never heard a worse narrator! I couldn't focus on the story because he was so bad. Save your sanity. Buy the book.
