Moonlight Weeps

A Dick Moonlight PI Thriller, Book 8

By: Vincent Zandri

Narrated by: Andrew B. Wehrlen

Dick Moonlight can't help himself. Moonlight, the private detective known as the head case with a bullet lodged in his brain, should be grateful for his current job. But when it becomes clear the cash-starved brain surgeon he's been hired to drive around is protecting his son from a rape conviction, Moonlight is disgusted.

Worse, when the charges turn into a case of "reckless murder", Moonlight's the only one trying to keep the kid from the electric chair though the girl - a state senator's daughter - clearly committed suicide. Then Moonlight and his unwilling assistant, a fat Elvis impersonator owing him money, stumble into a much bigger plot and are soon dodging Hollywood obsessed drug-running Russian thugs, corrupt government officials, and the specter of Moonlight's recently diseased girlfriend.

New York Times best-selling author Vincent Zandri delivers another fast-paced, grizzly thriller in the Dick Moonlight series, offering listeners plenty of wry humor, bullets, car chases, and Scarface references.

Moonlight Weeps
A Dick Moonlight PI Thriller, Book 8
By: Vincent Zandri
Narrated by: Andrew B. Wehrlen
This is an audible book I requested and the review is voluntary.
I really loved this rough and tough PI and his unintentional side kick of "Elvis". A great mystery, wonderfully developed characters, a very devious plot, a touch of gore (not much even though the Russian mob is in it), and a hint of romance. I liked the humor, the witty dialogue, and how the whole thing just works. A real gem of a read! (or listen)
The narrator was truly awesome! He did all the voices just perfect for those characters and in each situation, and that was no easy task! He kept the story interesting and enhanced the story in my opinion. Wonderful job!!!

Best Moonlight!

I loved this book! I have listened to several books by Vincent Zandri and Andrew B Wehrlen, and this one is my favorite so far. The story was original, gripping, and oh so good. I loved the twists this book had. Typically my preferred genre of listening is romance, but I do listen to some mystery and thriller books too. Some of the characters in this book were endearing (Moonlight, Elvis, Georgie) , while others were despicable (the doctor, the senator, the russian mob guys) . I loved the imagery the author wrote in this book. The narrator was able to perform several distinguishable characters and was pitch perfect for his narration. I requested this review copy audiobook and have voluntarily wrote this review. This is a standalone listen and part of a series. The saying "Revenge is a dish best served cold" is fitting.

Great Listen!

I'm new to this series but not for long! I was worried that being the eighth book in the series I would have trouble getting into it, having missed so much. Those worries were summarily quashed as I dove in. Wow, what a terrific story! I just couldn't stop listening to this fast-paced thriller laced with quirky characters, humor and great dialogue. Dick Moonlight, where have you been and why didn't I know about you? I can always count on Andrew B. Wehrlen for topnotch narration and he certainly didn't disappoint here. If you want a very entertaining listen, I would highly recommend Moonlight Weeps: A Dick Moonlight PI Thriller, Book 8.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. This review is my honest opinion.

Great Story!

A Bruce Willis look alike and an Elvis impersonator drive through town in a hearse...and the story is great! Sounds like a set up for a joke or a bad book, but trust me, you want to listen to this one! You won’t be sorry.

How have I missed this series???!!!!

This book is the eighth in the series and I'm just kicking myself for coming so late to this party. This Moonlight guy rocks!!!!

First off, major, major, major kudos to the narrator. Exceptionally perfect. Enthralling and sexy. Masculine and insanely cool. Love. Him.

The story is the central figure though. It is a well-written mystery with a very likable central figure (Moonlight) and a cast of characters - some good, some bad - that kept me engaged to the very end. I. Loved. It.

I don't know how many characters from this listen were in prior listens but the appearance of Moonlight's deceased girlfriend, an Elvis impersonator as a sidekick, and the fact that he drives a hearse, makes me want to know more. I've got to get the earlier books.

I don't know where this series has been but I'm so glad I found it!
