The Hard Goodbye
An audio novel by Chris Miller
& narrated by Daniel Caravetta
I normally don't do crime novels. Not that I don't like them, I just watch them more than read/listen to them. I spotted the author, Chris Miller, on FB Pages and thought, "What the heck? Can't hurt." I went for it; This is The Hard Goodbye.
And now, you're wondering what I thought, yeah?
Let me tell you about this monkey... #element-aab008df-78dc-4bdb-bad3-aaaa0468875b .waddons-blog-image.hideImage { display: none;}
The Hard Goodbye is all about habit, greed and getting what you give. Honestly, it's really about a man doing his best to get back what was taken from him. Sadly, it's all in the method.
Savage, his girlfriend, a lawyer who manipulates the law, a terribly crooked cop and a junkie... No, this isn't the opening to a bad joke, they're the main characters of The Hard Goodbye, by Chris Miller. They have pulled off the heist of their lives- an unnecessary job, if not for the fact that a few in the crew can't handle their spending habits. Unlucky for them all, the owner knows who they are and wants his money back.
The opening of The Hard Goodbye has one of the crew meeting the title of this tale. Hard. But the story isn't about how the owner retrieves his ends, it's all on how pulling off such a job doesn't mean you've gotten away. It's like when you step into a steaming pile of poo. It stick to you, even when you've wiped it off. The stench remains. That's what takes place here, but worse. They don't fall apart under the pressure; they crumble. And it doesn't help that, one by one, their crew seems to be literally coming to pieces.
The Hard Goodbye is brutal; if you can not take the opening chapter then it's not for you. But if you love a good, suspenseful, thrilling, back-stabbing book of betrayal and trying to get away clean, you'll want to read this book. I normally don't read these (I usually wait for the movie), but I'm telling you its good. Very good. The ending had me thinking of John Wick - but with an insane monkey. LOL I can't explain that part; you'll have to check it out for yourself, while I move on to the next read.
Cheers!
