Publisher's summary

A recovering addict and former child star, Jimmy Cooper gets a second shot at fame as a “famous” private detective in Los Angeles.

After cratering his career with booze, pills, and public humiliations, Jimmy has started over, working at his mom’s law firm as the in-house detective, putting his uncanny ability to spot liars to good use. Then, much to him and his mother’s surprise, Jimmy is famous once again after a case ends in a high speed chase viewed by thousands.

With the public looking on, his next case tests his abilities and his mother’s patience. Alicia Crowley, a young heiress, believes her uncle plans to kill her so she won’t collect her inheritance, and wants Jimmy to prove it. When the uncle turns up dead, she becomes suspect numero uno. Believing she’s innocent, he investigates, but begins to doubt his own instincts as he learns more about his client.

Top notch listen!

Love the story, the writing, and the flawless performance. Can’t wait for the next one. It’s got a light noir feel to a modern LA story. It’s funny and heartfelt and Matt Godfrey is the perfect voice for this story.

Fun, witty and easy listen

I am an audiobook junkie and listed to all kinds but mystery are my favorite. I enjoyed this book because it’s easy to listen to, which I love to do while I do other things, and it’s got some great witty humor. Definitely worth a listen, hopefully more Jimmy Cooper books will be in my future.

Funny, witty, and good plot

I love sarcastic, witty books and this one makes the cut. It was real.....real characters and plot that could really exist. And again , it was humorous. Really kept me interested. The narrator did a good job also. I am solo sticking to this series.

It's me

The book is well written - language, syntax, grammar... all of it. I can imagine someone else finding it funny. I made it a third of the way through, and I plan on reading the last few pages to see how the auhor ties it up. But I'm just not interested in wading through all the "stupid" stuff in between (obviously if you're at a murder scene and have been told specifically to touch NOTHING but, yes, you do anyway...). YMMV
