Black Velvet

The Erin O'Reilly Mysteries, Book 1

By: Steven Henry

Narrated by: Kristi Alsip

USA Today best-selling first book in the Erin O'Reilly Mysteries series.

Erin learned a lot from her partner: stay alert, follow your nose, and once you've got your teeth in them, never let go.

It’s tough working nights with the NYPD. The crime rate is high, the hours are terrible, and forget about a personal life. So, when Officer O’Reilly and her K-9 Rolf switch over to the day shift, things look up. She’s even able to find time for a new boyfriend.

But when the theft of a priceless painting from the Queens Museum leaves a fellow police officer dead, Erin and her four-legged partner find themselves dealing with dangerous criminals, sleazy art dealers, and obstructive detectives in a race to capture the killers...and just maybe bring closure to a 75-year-old crime.

Fun and Intriguing from beginning to end

I’ve read this book on kindle before, but as I don’t have much time to read now a days I decided to try the audio books so that I could catch up on the series.

Erin O Reilly is a compelling protagonist and the narrator of the audio book voices her way better than the voice in my brain. She truly brings Erin to life.

I’m a crime and mystery buff so I tend to guess the ends of the story before a lot of folks, but Steven Henry does a great job of setting out a landscape and the facts of a story in a way that keeps you guessing. You actually get to unravel the mystery as Erin does which is a rare thing now a days.

Action, dogs, some history mixed in, Black Velvet is a great introduction to a fantastic Mystery series. Definitely worth a read.

Great story. Keeps you on your toes. Ending was a surprise. Very good listen. Narration was very good as well.

I Found a new Author, Wahoo

Loved this book and will most certainly be reading the whole series. Narrator was awesome too.

Great Characters, Fascinating plot

I loved the spunky, impetuous character of Erin O'Reilly. The writer immerses you in the NYPD. It just feels so genuine and honest. That's not easy to accomplish. Now that I've found her, I'll read the entire series!
