Book Reviews of Birds of Prey (J. P. Beaumont, No 15) (Audio CD) (Abridged)

This is an entertaining audiobook that kept my husband and me happy on a long car trip. J.A. Jance writes highly readable mysteries with engaging characters whose thoughts and emotions ring true. You'll have a good time listening to this story about a retired homicide cop who gets involved with his fellow passengers' intrigues aboard an Alaskan cruise ship.

I regularly listen to CDs in my car back and forth to work so I'm always on the lookout for something entertaining. I loved this book! J.P. Beaumont is a hero to really grow fond of...so much so that I've already gotten 2 more books on CD! He has a wonderful sense of humor, takes crime seriously, is a good sport, not easily sidetracked, and is charming. My only complaint is that it wasn't long enough! I found myself picturing in my mind's eye each and every person introduced in the book. Twists and turns kept me guessing until the very end. Highly recommend if you're looking for a quick read and nothing too heavy or gory.

This was a great book for listening in the car while driving around. The plot is complicated enough to keep you guessing but easy to pick up the action if you've gone several days without listening.

Enjoyed listening to it.. but don't remember much about it now. Still can't remember why the villian did his evil deed. Oh well.. it was a nice romp.
