Resumen del Editor

When you have an IQ of 183 and have laid the foundation for a perfect alibi, committing murder is easy.

In this suspense thriller, it is a vicious game of cat and mouse as Private Eye David Crockett struggles to unravel an alibi so airtight that his intellectual adversary, always three steps ahead, just might have actually committed the perfect murder.

Primitive, cliched, chauvinistic

This detective threatens people, uses violence to get “confessions” and is never clever or nuanced. The narrative sounded like he was in his 60s even though the detective was supposed to be 35. Every male character seemed to be that old. Women characters are defined by their appearance and hard to differentiate. The detective has to check them all out as if the to remind the reader he is actually a man. He has no emotional range. He subsists on a diet of white bread, French fries and red meat which also is meant to show how manly he is. In other words he was a cliche of toxic masculinity. The plot was predictable and he far too easily found clues. I was listening to this because I’m writing my own book about a murder that is made to look like a suicide. Otherwise I would have turned it off after the first two chapters. It is set in Salt Lake City Utah which is kind of unique but that’s the only thing it has going for it. It was a painful listen.
