Publisher's summary

Ex-Buddhist monk, former LAPD detective, and current private investigator Tenzing "Ten" Norbu knows Bill Bohannon as many things: loving husband, devoted father, police administrator, former partner, and best friend. But then an uninvited guest from Bill's past upends the Bohannons' Fourth of July barbecue, revealing in levelheaded Bill the most unexpected behavior - behavior that awkwardly drops Ten in the middle of a crumbling marriage.

Ten makes an unexpected move of his own when he agrees to pro bono work for a convicted felon. But it was dope slinger Godfrey Chambers Ten had repeatedly busted during his days on the force, not the reformed and rechristened G-Force who is now asking for Ten's help in claiming money left to him by a kind-hearted benefactor - and contested by the benefactor's self-serving family.

Soon Ten's investigations lead him down the darkest corridors of the Internet and halfway around the globe to Sarajevo as he navigates the seedy worlds of human trafficking and personal regret. As his cases intertwine, Ten will rely on the wisdom of the Buddha and his own network of relationships - with super hacker Mike, outrageously idiosyncratic assistant Kim, old monastery friends Yeshe and Lopsang, Serbian cabbie and former policija Petar, and, of course, feline rock Tank - to solve the puzzle ­ and keep free of his own tangled past. Especially when an old flame returns.

The Fourth Rule of Ten, the thrilling fourth book in the Dharma Detective series, proves the only thing better than exceeding expectations is having none at all.

More Please

This series is so good, wish there were more, surprised Netflix hasn't picked it up. Also wish 5th Rule of Ten was on Audible. Well written and preformed, enjoyable and engaging.

Missing book Five!

I've listened to the first four books of this excellent series and the prequel. But Audible doesn't have the fifth book. I hope they get it soon.

Investigator lama Ten

Another case for Ten that takes him to Sarajevo, to find not only one missing person, but many who are being trafficked.
My new favorite Mystery series.

Thrilling and philosophical adventures

Any additional comments?

Jeremy Arthur's smooth and distinctive voice enhances The Fourth Rule to a sublime and enthralling listen. His ability to voice accented and still accurate dialogue by the many characters is truly delightful. I found myself smiling at his versatility and solid cadence many times during this 4th book. He takes great care in matching his choices to the written description and with the addition of foreign accents, adds immeasurably to this wonderful story. The description of the cat, Tank, and his antics are truly one of my favorite parts of the book. WONDERFUL work, sir!

Another great one in the series

I love Ten’s spiritual growth as he matures and applies his Buddhist teachings. In this book, he deals with the underworld of human trafficking. Too bad The Fifth Rule of Ten is not out on Audible. The books are all so well narrated.

Kind of a bridge book

Not as intriguing as the previous books. Too “simple” of ending, but we will see where it leads.
