I picked up the audiobook of this and though it was an interesting story, the audiobook had a lot to be desired. There were lots of inconsistencies which had me thinking WTH. At one point Zeke, the lead cop was on the phone with a sheriff Brodie, and something was said about the look on Brodie's face when Zeke gave him some news. This book took place in 1941, I highly doubt they had phones capable of visuals. It happened more than once and was rather disturbing. Upon picking up the actual book, I noticed that these incidents actually happened face to face and whomever did the abridgment, just did a crappy job. Oh well it didn't detract from the story just sidelined it a bit.

A woman ends up dead in her bathtub and detective Zeke Bannon and Ski Agassi grab the case. Zeke immediately felt something was off with this scenario and took it upon himself to investigate. Turns out the dead woman, appeared out of nowhere roughly 20 years ago with a boatload of cash. The investigation is interesting and huge leaps of faith are taken by Bannon. His insight is amazing and his determination to ferret out the culprit is unending.

I enjoyed the story but in hindsight, should have read the book and gotten the full effect. So if you have the option of an abridgment or the real thing, stick with the real thing on this one as the abridgment cuts out too many of the details and the story just doesn't flow properly.
