Publisher's summary

It's been two years since disgraced Illinois governor Ray Perry disappeared from a federal courthouse in Chicago moments after being sentenced to 38 years in prison on corruption charges. PI Michael Kelly is sitting in his office when he gets an anonymous email offering to pay him nearly a quarter million dollars if he will find Perry.

Kelly's investigation begins with the woman Ray Perry left behind - his wife, Marie. Marie tells Kelly she has no idea where her husband is. Like everyone else, Kelly doesn't believe her. As he hunts for her husband, Kelly begins to unwind Marie Perry's past. Everyone in Chicago has secrets, including the governor's wife. And some of them could get Michael Kelly killed.

Good story but narrator made it hard to follow

This is a really interesting well crafted story but narrated in a distracting manner which made it quite hard to follow. I kept finding I had zoned out in an important part of the story and had to go backwards to find what I'd missed.

Good Story, Horrible Narration

It was an interesting story but not a fan of a narrator.

I he sounded more like a cheesy ,slimy politician, meets a stuck up aristocrat then a P.I. the whole time I just couldn't believe that he was the guy and I struggled to get through it. I would say to actually read this book not listen to it.
