Resumen del Editor

A string of high-level jewel heists up and down the Pacific Coast Highway has gone unsolved for years, mostly because the perpetrator has lived by a strict code he calls “Crime 101”. Police attribute the thefts to the Colombian cartels. But Detective Lou Lubesnick’s gut says it’s the work of just one man. Now the lone-wolf jewel thief is looking for that fabled final last score, and Lou breaks all the rules of "Crime 101".

Another engrossing Winslow read

4.5 of 5 stars.

Winslow delivers a lot of story telling and character development in a 2 hour audible. There are a couple of coincidences that drive the resolution towards a tidy ending, but then, not entirely impossible. Winslow's prose and ability to draw the listener in is top notch. Very few authors can repackage the cliches of the criminal who will retire after "one more heist" and the newly-divorced detective "married to his work" into something fresh and page-turn worthy. Winslow is one of the best.

Ray Porter, as always, is excellent.

Really enjoyed.

I loved this book like I love women and like Davis loves the 101. Solid.

Another great Don Winslow tale.

Don Winslow is IMHO the best crime writer out there today. He really knows how to spin a story and Ray Porter is one of the best narrators in the game. No wonder Don picked him for so many of his books. Crime 101 is a novella about the cat and mouse of a master jewel thief and a police detective in Southern California. I found it to be exciting and well paced with a satisfying finish. I really enjoyed it and you will too.

Don Winslow 101

Don Winslow does it again. If you read one Don Winslow you’ll read one more - you’re hooked. I know because I am too. He writes like life flows - smoothly. One moment after another, without interruption. I can’t get enough.

Fantastic in all catagoroes

Not only enthralling, it was not predictable. Good info on the senior single scene altho that was a small part of it. One of the best short stories I’ve heard!

Winslow at his best

Short and very very sweet, with a delicious finale dessert. Porter delivers the perfect voice. Loved the timely McQueen/101 segues. Winslow will surely be an excellent novelist once he expands his talents beyond novellas.

No wait! He’s already done that. My bad.

A short, interesting listen.

I really enjoy the author’s style, and the narrator suits the style perfectly. A straightforward, good story with a satisfying ending.

Enjoyable Ride

Not just a heist story, not just a police investigation, a story about choices and the open road. Lovely.

Pitch perfect!

This was a very entertaining tale. And it was told in the area. I am very familiar with. Southern California, and all the beaches and Highway 101. A good story with a satisfying ending… What more could you ask for?

A winner

Love a good old short audio story during my daily run and Don Winslow does not fail in Crime 101. A smart criminal and even smarter Detective both use their individual skills to rob and capture. It moves fast and I always love the SoCal aka San Diego references. I hope to see more of these Novellas as the feeling of getting through a good book fast gives me a sense of accomplishment. How many times I have started a book and became distracted and never finished it. Answer; too many times. More short stories please . P.S. Ed Harris and Ray Porter are great Narrators.
