Acerca de esta escucha
Raised in a world of flimflams, come-ons, and con-jobs, Beano Bates has done so well he's earned a spot on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted List. But his lucky streak vanishes after a card game in which he scams a cool eighty grand from a notorious Mafia don—who retaliates by having Beano nearly beaten to death. For the first time in his legendary career, Beano wants more than a big score—he wants justice. Aided by a beautiful, no-nonsense female prosecutor and a legion of crafty cousins who are all accomplished grifters, Beano puts together the ultimate swindle—a well-planned sting of strategy, skill and deception. And in this game, winner takes all!

Haller is a Lincoln Lawyer, a criminal defense pro who operates out of the backseat of his Lincoln Town Car, to defend clients at the bottom of the legal food chain. It's no wonder that he is despised by cops, prosecutors, and even some of his own clients. But an investigator is murdered for getting too close to the truth and Haller quickly discovers that his search for innocence has taken him face to face with a kind of evil as pure as a flame.

This novel by Carl Hiaasen, author of Tourist Season and Native Tongue, begins as most thrillers do, with a killing. But this is no everyday, hum-drum, garden variety killing. Our hero, Nick Stranahan, a 42-year-old private investigator who has killed five men and been married five times, skewers his attacker's aorta with the razor-sharp bill of a stuffed marlin.

I have read this book 3 times…
And this is the first time listening to it. The audiobook was great and I’ll be damned if SJC wasn’t the best narrator I’ve listened to.
I guess I’m a sucker for cons and heists and this story is always a fun one to read (and listen to). Its a breezy, quick listen with a long con that will keep you guessing. The Bates’ family tree is something that would be fun to explore and the Reena Bros. are truly terrifying psychopaths that keep the stakes high.
