ONE DAY YOU'LL BURN Tully Jarsdel, Book 1

Neil Shah narrates this mystery/thriller in which Tully Jarsdel, a former college professor turned L.A. homicide detective, is on the hunt for a brutal killer. Those he works with are not accepting of his meteoric rise to the Homicide division. Sadly, Shah's characterizations don't hit the mark for the most part, missing a genuine feel for a story reminiscent of classic Hollywood noir. One bright spot is the character Stevens, whose lively personality comes across more naturally as Tully works to earn the respect of his fellow officers and navigate sticky familial and social situations while working to catch the killer.
