Brett Cornell Mystery #7

It's All Brett's Fault

Rate this book
Marcus Wade was a man who wasn't easily intimidated -- that is, until he had reason to believe that someone was trying to kill him. Upon talking the matter over with his wife Sybil, he decided to hire someone who would not only protect him, but who would also scare off any potential murderers. In other words, he needed a man who was tough, dangerous -- and more than a little unscrupulous. Enter private detective Brett Cornell who jumps at the chance to push his weight around on the man's behalf, but is even MORE anxious to get it on with the lovely Sybil Wade as well as her younger and even more voluptuous sister Nora -- for starters! The fun and games come to an abrupt end, however, when someone really ends up dead, and everyone involved It's all Brett's fault!

Really there is nothing that I can add to everything that I already wrote about Brett Cornell Mysteries.
David D. D’Aguanno somehow wrote a perfect series, there is no question about that !!!
And by letting Travis Henry Carter narrate the series a full on masterpiece have been created.
There is absolutely nothing bad that I could write here, only that I can guarantee that it’s impossible not to love the series and that it will always leave you with wanting more !

Absolutely recommend for all !!!

( Format : Audiobook )
"More than one way to skin a canary."
It's hot outside and Brett is pumping iron. Modest and retiring as always, at 37 he believes he's never looked better, even hotter than the weather outside. But he's still a long way from his goal of Easy Street by the time he's 40. In fact, he's broke. And still hurting after 'she who cannot be named.'
So when offered a job as protection for a man who claims that someone wants to murder him which pays five thousand dollars for a couple of weeks work, Brett goes along with the pushy Marcus Wade, little knowing that he might just have met another unscrupulous bastard like himself.

The story is, as always, ramblingly related by Brett (and his alter ego, Trains Henry Carter) himself. Not a book for the uptight P.C. crowd. In fact, Brett is not someone yho anyone would ever want to really meet, but experienced th byrough the pages of David D.D'Aguanno's books, he is rampant, if you get my drift. And Travis Carter's narration is superb, becoming the vain, obnoxious moustachioed and muscled monster so seductive to the ladies, whilst at the same time voicing everyone else be they male or female, very distinctively. The combination of author and narrator makes the Brett Cornell stories absolutely unmissable.
Do I recommend it? "Do ducks quack and mooses moo?" Absolutely.

Disclaimer.
I had requested and received audible version of this book for free from the author, in exchange for an unbiased review.

What I liked about the book -
The main draw of this series is its central character Brett and his witty charm. His antiques never get boring or cringy. He's easily one of the most fun character I read in recent times. The mystery part of the book almost becomes secondary. Almost. The author doesn't try to ride the entire book on Brett's shoulder and actually provides a good mystery to solve. It kept me guessing till the end.

What I disliked about the book -
Nothing specific that I can think of.

Narration -
Narration by Travis Henry Carter was great. His accent brought Brett to life and made him all that more enjoyable.

This is my first from the author . This was a fantastic story. It made me laugh , there was mystery and it had you thinking also . The narrator Travis had a clear voice and the character were done perfectly .
This is part 7 of the series.
Hero is Brett Cornell.
Brett is a man with Blod hair and a great body . He wants to retire by 40 but there is one problem Brett is Broke
Brett just found his perfect way o easy street , he needs to provide protection to someone paranoid that someone is out to murder him .. the pay is five thousand dollars for a few weeks
Does Brett find his way to retire with all that money , is someone actually out to murder his client
