January LaVoy narrates this witty mystery with ease, allowing clever writing to shine. Listeners join a brother-and-sister PI team who are called in by the San Francisco Police to stop a series of murders that are triggering a gang war. The siblings' personalities are diverse to the extreme. While there's nothing strange about that, the fact that the two siblings inhabit the same body adds a twist to this madcap story, taking noir fiction to the extreme. LaVoy doesn't fully differentiate the voices of the siblings, allowing the listener to get a sense of their really being a single body with two inhabitants. LaVoy's well-paced and calm narration sets the perfect tone for a plot liberally sprinkled with twists, dark humor, and vulgarities. K.J.P. © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine [Published: OCTOBER 2018]
