This book came highly recommended, and I was told I would like it a lot, not only were they right but I will take it up a notch and say I loved everything about it, from AK Alliss’ wonderful writing style to the interesting characters and storylines he created to the perfectly cast team of narrators who brought it all to life from the pages to my ears. This is my first alt-history Noir Detective Novel and I enjoyed AK Alliss imaginative rewrite of history, not only of his use of well known historical icons bit the way he manipulates and changes the way some newsworthy and historical events occurred. Jimmy Dean, a small-time actor whose career never took off, he friended Marilyn Monroe and when she died, he refused to believe it was a suicide and he looks into it further, starting with what he thinks is her diary. But it appears he is not the only one interested in her death or there is someone who does not want him to find out the truth. He calls the one person he knows who will have his back, Elvis Presley, the two have history together and were once in trouble themselves. Elvis in this universe is a truck driver in Mississippi, he goes to meet up with Jimmy and once again the two find themselves in situations that are trouble. AK Aliss’ descriptive details and telling of this story brings you right alongside his characters, allowing you to see what they see, feel and think. It is a cleverly plotted story that thought provoking and keeps you on your toes the entire time. I highly recommend this book, it is a unique and original story that is captivating from start to end.

🎧📚🎧 And for the fabulous narration and amazing line-up of talent led by Johnny Heller, Neil Hellengers, Bill Lord, Joya Colucci Lord, Jo Anna Perrin and Anneliese Rennie join him throughout the book covering the different character roles along the way. They all had a complete understanding of the characters they were portraying, giving each a voice that suits the character’s persona perfectly, sounding believable in that role and just as I pictured them to sound. The perfect tone was set for the story and the pacing was spot on as well. These entertaining storytellers take an already great story to another level of greatness. Thank you for this exceptional audiobook, it was a pleasure to listen to.
