About this title

About the Author:

Before turning to crime fiction, Robert Andrews published four thrillers that drew on his own experiences as a Green Beret, a CIA operative, and an aide to senior U.S. Senator John Glenn. He is the author of A Murder of Honor, which Publishers Weekly called “a gem of a thriller.” Robert Andrews lives in Washington, D.C.

From AudioFile:

A beloved priest killed in a drive-by shooting is found to have gay classified ads and a half-million dollars in cash in his closet. Two seasoned detectives will win or lose their careers, and maybe their lives, trying to untangle the case. Setting the scene immediately and convincingly, David Daoust brings a straightforward attitude to his down-and-dirty presentation of the story. His gritty performance suits the text, but his characterizations slide into one another and sometimes disappear altogether. The performance, and the story, unfold almost relentlessly, tape after tape. Daoust's enthusiasm carries the performance, barely.
