After finally achieving some measure of peace and contentment on the tip of Oak Point overlooking the Little Peconic Bay, Sam Acquillo is yet again an accidental player in other people's dramas. It takes him into the world of private security goons, predatory financiers, and lifestyles of young hedonists, some brave, some beautiful, all a bit lost.

But this time there's some added incentive, an opportunity Sam thought he'd never see again, the chance to get a piece of his old life back, the only piece he might actually want.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Rewarding....Knopf blends familiar elements in unusually pleasing fashion and adds plenty of original touches as well....Acquillo is a savvy operator who loves problem solving and has the tenacity of a pit bull. His penchant for intriguing predicaments bodes well for a long and successful series." ( Publishers Weekly)
Sharp Dialogue • Well-crafted Story • Easy Listening Voice • Brilliant Supporting Cast • Enjoyable Series

Perhaps it was me...but the sparks from the first books was missing. Locking forward to the. ext one to see if it was a fluke...

Not As Good As Previous Ones...B/B+

The dialogue was very very good! But the story lacked something that made me WONDER what was going --- LOVE the happenings of the dog --- gave me more than a few chuckles!

Very good dialogue!

The story was very good but I really had to pay close attention. There were a lot of people involved. this is one I wouldn't hesitate to listen to again. Ferrone has one of those voices that is easy to listen to for a long time. very good book.

Pay very close attention.

I like the characters, the dialogue, the dog. Knopf is always worth my time. Well done!

Good

The author is a friend of mine. So take that with a grain of salt. But I found that this particular Sam Acquillo book was very high on style and character development, but lacked the essential aspects of a mystery that I hope for. There was no bog reveal or "ah-ha" moment in this book. Only an "I see now" moment. Still the book is well crafted and the dialogue (something Knopf does particularly well) is sharp as a razor.

A good beach read, but not Chris' best.

I just bumped into Chris Knopf and was delighted to find out there are a bunch of books of his I could bury myself in. Good characters - who grow and develop as the series goes along - good mysteries - fun and serious all at the same time. I highly recommend these books in the Sam Acquillo series, also the Jackie Swaitkowski books are equally worthwhile. Not so pleased with the Arthur Cathcart series (3 books) but they aren't bad by any means - just not nearly as fun to read as the others.

Chris Knopf is simply great!

Sometimes his books are hard to follow because there are so many characters. I love this narrator. I think he has a mix of tough and smart in his voice that I like. It’s a shame that Sam is an alcoholic and that Amanda enables it. It’s not very attractive. I also wish the author didn’t have Sam idolize Amanda to such a great degree. It’s a bore when men or women are so blind to someone that they edge over into a kind of worship. She has all the best insights all the wisest sayings all the best advice practically solves the crimes. It’s obnoxious.

Lots of Characters

Thoroughly entertaining; if you listen in the car, you'll hope for a traffic jam. Narrator Richard Ferrone does an excellent job voicing and pacing this story.

Home run

I did enjoy the story in spite of the authors unnecessary loquacity throughout. I found myself deliberately not digging out my thesaurus to keep up. It would have been an impracticable undertaking. LOL
The narration in my opinion lacks convincing gender and ethnic character voices.

Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness

I am hooked on Sam and his Entourage. Knoph is quite a Wordsmith and can really paint a scene. I very much enjoyed traipsing after Sam as he sought to secure who done it and what for. The Supporting Cast of characters is brilliantly depicted and each is nicely vocalized by Rick Ferrone. The finale kind of sneaks up on you as some of the early players become critically unveiled. Sam is super.. 👍👍👍

Excellent Series Addition ...!!!
