Dressed to Kill (Jack "Keeper" Marconi #5), my fifth read from author Vincent Zandri. I've been getting books by this author since 2012 & never getting around to reading one until now. Since I own both the Kindle & Audible editions of this book I was able to follow along while reading it and since I own a total of 20 books by him I eagerly look forward to reading more!

Dressed to Kill (Jack “Keeper” Macaroni #5) was a good quick read by Vincent Zandri. Jack’s on again off again ex fiancée shows up at his gym with bad news, she is the prime suspect in a murder case. Her business partner has been murdered. This was a great read.

This was an ok read. Wasn’t much action and excitement in it at all

[Tony Parsons · Rating 5 out of 5]

Albany, NY. Val Antonelli (Jack’s on/off again ex-fiancé, Girl Friday, Anna’s co-partner John Patrick Boutique), came to see Jack Marconi (former Green Haven Maximum Security Penitentiary Warden), while he was working out at the Albany Strength Gym.
Val & Jack went to pay Detective Nick Miller (50+, Albany PD) a visit to see how he was coming on the murder case of Anna Kruise (40, South Korean, Val’s co-partner John Patrick Boutique).
Next stop to see Bruce Feingold (CEO of Schuyler, lease holder).

Will the murder mystery get solved?

I did not receive any type of compensation for reading & reviewing this book. While I receive free books from publishers & authors, I am under no obligation to write a positive review. Only an honest one.

A very awesome book cover, great font & writing style. A very well written murder mystery book. It was very easy for me to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a great set of unique characters to keep track of. This could also make another great murder mystery movie, or better yet a mini TV series. A very easy rating of 5 stars.
