Things change quickly when Archie Archibald receives his new private detective license. He knows his wife will not be happy, but he isn’t prepared for what happens next. When his good friend gets caught up in an investment scam, Archie decides to look into it. His inquiries are interrupted when his first client shows up, and her case takes a sudden turn toward the bizarre. When the Everglades catch on fire, south Florida gets even hotter as Archie finds himself thrust into a world of well-connected politicians, sex for hire, and a murder where the only evidence points to him.

A Crimson Sky for Dying
By: James R. Nelson

A relatively new private detective opens his own office and a huge can of

worms. Good characters and twisty storyline. Kept me entertained.

The narration was well done by, 5395 Media LLC. I'd like to know who this

person is because his voice is enjoyable.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have
voluntarily left this review.

The novel was mundane story that just failed to move me. On a positive note, I will say that I hung in there and finished the story.
