Quinn Goes West

Liam Quinn Mysteries #3

by L.H. Thomson

High-society life can be deadly under the hot desert sun;
An art theft turns to murder, and Quinn is ducking bullets....

Someone wants Liam Quinn dead, but he's not sure if it's the aging TV actor, the aging mobster, or one of a bevy of local gals who have him in their sights. The desert's a tough place, and Arizona is a long way from his beloved Philadelphia. The Nora situation is more convoluted than ever, a hippie with a mean streak has a gun to his head, two goons are digging his grave and the last time he stepped in the ring, some guy knocked him out without even touching him. Still, Quinn would tell you it beats dealing with his love life and family back in Philly, at least marginally. And that's what happens -- well, that and a dead guy -- when Quinn Goes West.

For lovers of Robert B. Parker, John D. MacDonald and Sue Grafton, this private eye series offers a steady stream of action and adventure, humor and even some romance.

Q - Why do readers relate to Quinn? He's an ex-con.

A - He's a guy who made a mistake, and no one is harder on Liam than Liam, I think -- at least in the first few books. And he's got a big, troublesome extended family. I was trying to capture that feeling we've all had at some point around the dinner table or at a family event, when you know you really love them but boy, what you wouldn't give to say what you're really thinking!

Q - For a guy who fights so much, he's kind of a big softy! Was that deliberate?

A - He developed as a character based on a backstory and a family history that I had pretty firmly in mind; but by having once been a champion boxer, it gave me a chance to let him handle disputes without using a gun, a definite necessity for an ex-con. I like to think he's his parents' son.

Q - Do I need to read them in order?

A -It helps. It's not necessary, as every book is a self-contained mystery (or three); but the backstory of his family and the progression of his life in Philadelphia makes a lot more sense in chronological

I love this guys books I enjoyed them so much. Another book worth your time a good read. I'm originally from Arizona so I knew the area that made even more interesting

It's very Western how descriptions of Arizona are lovely and I think you'll enjoy it. The description of the Cave Creek carefree area is very good and you might like to visit there

Another Hit for Quinn!

I always look forward to this series and this one did not let me down. Thanks again LH!
Love the Arizona location and all the characters Quinn meets.

[Ted Tayler · Rating 4 out of 5]

"Enjoyable"

Well-written thriller that's not of the run-of-the-mill variety. Certainly worth a read.

[Texas · Rating 5 out of 5]

Needing a break from all the books I promised to review, I wanted something different to get lost in and the Liam Quinn Mystery Series was the ticket. This author is good enough to be one of the big boys. He is talented and can write multiple storylines that merge well the new storyline additions in each book. The timeframe is continuous, usually picking up where the last book ends. The characters are actually people you know, OK, maybe not all the mobsters, but the regular cast. They are realistic, no Hollywood garbage, and they get hurt without a fairy or angel to save them. There is humor, not just smartalec Quinn, but good humor, too. I recommend getting a bunch of these books and just chainreading them; they’re hard to stop as I discovered when I ran out of the books in my library. So if you like Wambaugh, Remington Steele, Moonlighting or Breaking Bad or Weeds, you will love Quinn, too.

Quinn Goes West #3 – This book picks up four days after Kicks ends. Man, the stuff that happens to Quinn. Still entertaining and interesting storylines, along with the same cast of characters and the new additions per story. Still realistic, although the author doesn’t know what size ten acres is and tries to pass that amount off as vast, but no one’s perfect. Good kinks to ruin a person’s day. Still good with plenty of humor, and the romance …. 5*

Quinn Checks In #1 – My first read by this author and I am impressed and excited to have found this author. This author should be one of the big names since this book reminds me of the good authors in this genre from the 60s and 70s. The storylines are interesting and fast paced, and the intriguing investigations keeps me wanting to read more of this series and this author’s work. Quinn is a good character; he keeps you on his side with his faults and good heart. His family is well cast and the other supporting characters round out the “family”, which is common in this genre. There is humor and maybe a touch of romance from afar, and the cursing/vulgar language is kept to a minimum. If you like Wambaugh and company, you’ll like Thomson. There’s minor editing needed, like lowercase being used for names/proper nouns/titles, but most won’t notice. I will now start on the second book of this series, which is bad for me since I have other books to read with close deadlines. 5*

Quinn Gets His Kicks #2 – This book picks up about nine months after Checks ends. Another interesting story about Quinn with a few kinks in the fast paced storylines keeping the reader involved. Quinn and fellow characters are interesting and realistic, and easy to understand. I read this book before the update came out so I don’t know how the two versions differ, but I like what I read. The conversation style and continuing sequence is good, unless you read out of sequence causing you to miss a segment of Quinn’s life. There’s still that hint of romance. 4*

Quinn & The Vanishing Bride #4 – This book picks up about six months after West ends. Quinn keeps kickin’. Entertaining and intriguing storylines that keep the reader involved with Quinn and crew. As always, there’s more happening than meets the eye and there’s plenty of humor, not all smartalec. The characters never disappoint and their dialog and actions are realistic. Quinn’s the hero of the series and keeps getting the tarnation beat out of him, but he gets his licks in, too. Good mysteries that the reader can’t help but get involved in solving, but remember, there’s always something thrown in the spokes. If you like series like Breaking Bad or Remington Steele or Moonlighting, you’ll have fun with this series, too. Oh, there is a romance and Mrs. Quinn thinks she’ll have two weddings soon; she wants the rugrats. 5*

PERFECT ending to a good mystery with the best couple there is. I love Nora. I swear, she's me if I were from Philly. And Quinn is definitely my husband if he were more outgoing like Quinn. That date is totally something we'd do. But, back to the rest of the story. That sunburn almost felt real to me. And Quinn getting shot - twice?! When he tells Nora... And his mom! When he tells his mom, she's gonna flip! I'm surprised he didn't take the deal, though. Surprised and not surprised at the same time. It is Liam after all.

Probably my favorite of the first three, honestly.

[Ardess Connel · Rating 4 out of 5]

Third in series

This third book in the series was the best so far. Set mostly in Arizona, around the greater North Eastern part of Phoenix, my territory. Perhaps a better story for me personally as I could relate better to the location references. Also, the action was greater and the story well told. I am hoping the following books of the series are even better.

[Stacy Derebery · Rating 5 out of 5]

Hooked!!! Liam & Nora

Finally!!!! I’ve been waiting (reading) and hoping that they would finally start dating. Liam is the kind of guy that cracks a woman up. He tried so hard to make things right. He is the guy we all know and only hope that our guy loves us that much!!!

Quinn Goes West (3)

The story was a good read that has you hooked with nowhere to run . The author has put you in the story and makes you think about how to make this work. Then it all comes together.

Great read,keep you wondering how !any more beatings he was going to take. I loved in Phoenix for 35years it was always to hot.

Yes. Why i already wrote a lot why do you have to have a certain quantity of words does haha make the review better

I guess I got through it

I suppose the story was a little bit interesting, but the conclusion confused me. The guilty party was not anyone I even remember being mentioned earlier in the book. Most likely will try other mystery novels.

A thirty something former boxer, art forger, and ex-con who has spent his entire life in urban Philadelphia must travel to Phoenix, Arizona to investigate a possible art theft. Liam Quinn the black sheep son of a large Irish Catholic family gets a whole new education in, "Quinn Goes West". This is the third book of nine in author L. H. Thomson's Quinn series of mystery thrillers. For the first time, Quinn experiences a four hour plane ride, Arizona's "dry" heat , and a blazing 102 degree sun set high in the sky. For Quinn, what's an inner city kid all his life doing kicking around in the desert ?. Dominic Grey is a wealthy policy holder of Philadelphia Mutual Insurance Company. However Dominic has a tragic "tanning bed" accident that kills him. Dominic also has a very large insurance policy on his 164 very valuable art paintings. But only 163 of Dominic's paintings are accounted for. Quinn is dispatched to inventory the art and determined the value of the one painting that is missing. Quinn's first problem is Dominic's widow. Amanda Grey is much younger than Dominic, and is proud of the fact she's a gold digger. complicating things further is Marcus Rosen, Dominic's business partner in a very ambitious project known as the "Dunes". A heavy duty construction project aiming at making investors a tidy profit upon completion. The "Dunes" are due to rise up out of the desert for a more modern Phoenix. Quinn must also deal with Amanda's best friend Alyssa, who gets whatever she wants. Alyssa wants Quinn. (Nora is back home and Quinn is laser focused on relationship with Nora.) When a motorcycle drive by machine gun shooter kills Alyssa and puts Quinn in hospital with minor injuries things begin to get really hairy. Quinn's boss back in Philadelphia, Ramon Garcia de Soria, wants to know what the hell he's doing. Wrap up necessary paperwork and scoot back to Philly. Also FBI Agent Francis Belloche thinks Quinn is hiding out in Arizona avoiding helping FBI with case against Terrasini's. A thoroughly enjoyable story to read, "Quinn Goes West", never lets up on accelerator pedal very often in this yarn. Packed with action and some crazy deadly characters help support this third Quinn novel very well. Once again Quinn is dodging the Mafia, and gangsters who've "retired" to Arizona. Dealing with an inexperienced all news radio reporter, and a horny woman about town, really spice this one up as well. So far all three of author L.H. Thomason's Quinn's series books have delivered. Witty dialog, several twists and turns in plot that bounce like crazy only add to the enjoyment of the story. Dealing with Philadelphia and the Mob out in Phoenix makes complete sense. It just takes Quinn time from dodging bullets and thugs to realize his situation. Another five stars out of a possible five stars on this third Quinn book. If you're not already, "youse" need to be helping out Quinn reading about his adventures. book four: "Quinn And The Vanishing Bride" will up shortly in this nine book series.

[Scot · Rating 4 out of 5]

Third in the series but first I've read. I liked it, a quick read that moves along at well timed pace featuring an insurance company private investigator named Liam Quinn -- he's a former art forger who did some time and hails from an Irish working class family in Philly, with his dad a retired cop and his brother still on the force. This story is primarily set in Arizona, a place I don't know very well, but I do know Philly and the scenes set there and cultural references all rang true for me.

The insurance claim involves an artwork by early 20th century Italian futurist Umberto Boccioni (great choice, by the way) and in the sprawling urban growth of Phoenix and its surrounding suburbs (and the surrounding desert beyond...) we get encounters with three different femme fatales, made guys, varied lowlifes and suspicious tertiary characters, a crusty old boxing coach, and a curmudgeon who used to do slapstick comedy for kids on 1950s TV. The guy who owned the painting was fried to death in his own tanning salon. In Phoenix. Like the painting selection, I approve that plot detail: this author makes his take on the formula story a bit dark humor at times, his use of flashbacks showed thought, and I particularly enjoyed the boxing references and scenes.

This is worth going back to the first in the series and working one's way through.

[Nancy · Rating 3 out of 5]

Like the other Liam Quinn book I read, the main character and story kept me interested. The formatting of the story, at least on the kindle, left something to be desired. There were no indications when the character was slipping from present day to a flashback from a few days before and back again. That was a trifle disconcerting. Some kind of way to mark the changes would have been welcome. I also found it rather amazing that a man who had a concussion, suffered 2nd degree burns over much of his body, and got shot in the butt could partake in the kind of chase he did within days/hours of these injuries. And as I mentioned in my first update, there were too many women whose names began with "A." There were minor proofreading problems in the first part of the book. As the story progressed, there were many more. It felt as if the author was rushing to get the book out and decided to forgo proofreading the last few chapters. Despite these flaws, if I run across another Quinn book as a Kindle Unlimited choice, I'll probably read it.

[Will Decker · Rating 4 out of 5]

There’s something about Liam Quinn that most people find irresistible and this author knows how to work it! Quinn is an ex-con, physically fit, and possesses a sense of humor that women find appealing. Yet he doesn’t let it go to his head as his heart is tied to his high school sweetheart. If he were any nicer he’d be sappy. But he knows where to draw the line and it works. Well-developed characters, good plot with enough action to keep it moving forward at a steady pace, and very few grammar errors. I’m looking forward to reading the next in this series.

[Ellen White · Rating 4 out of 5]

Quinn taking any job he can, needing rent money. Guy died in Phoenix and had a lot of art. His wife is wanting someone to appraise them. 163 paintings of which the 164 th one is missing., three hours later, he figured 17.3 million worth or more. The wife questions him dying in a tanning bed, and then a painting at the spa goes missing. She read the policy if foul play, it goes up three times. Finding the husband was in a fraudulent deal. Quinn had a car chase,shits fired at him, dragged to the desert. All in doing another case, that was interesting.

[Rizello · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a good series.

Quinn gets sent on a search to assess some artwork which takes him to the Southwest. Along the way he stirs up trouble. Back home he is dealing with a potential new relationship.

He is a likeable guy and his family is interesting: brothers that are cops, priests, and a Catholic mom who is worried about him.

[Mary Rowe · Rating 3 out of 5]

Entertaining Read, Three and one-half stars

Some grammatical blotches (few); sneaky sideways plotting, true love and social redemption. Nicely done, will willingly read more of Liam's shenanigans.

This is another Quinn murder mystery that includes some injuries Quinn suffers in pursuit of the bad guys. Some getting answers by pretending to cooperate for a share of the stolen painting.

Easy reason; lighter action, good comedic content,.

Each book provides the reader more insight into the characters ' personalities, tendencies, and moralities. Fun to read. This book doesn't leave your heart pounding needing to know what happens next. Truly just entertaining!
