RHODE ISLAND RED Nanette Hayes, Book 1

How does a gorgeous, superintelligent Black street saxophonist get mixed up with a murder, a police investigation, the Mafia, and the search for a priceless saxophone? Narrator Karen Murray's voice is as warm and sexy as a Charlie Parker classic. She pulls no punches as she portrays musician Nanette Hayes, who is being "played" by an ex-boyfriend and the new lover she thought was Mr. Right. Murray's narration combines warm tones and an inviting purr with a gutsy spitfire edge as Nanette sets out to solve a mystery that begins with finding an undercover cop dead in her apartment and a lot of dough stuffed in her sax. This is the first in a new series. B.J.P. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine [Published: JANUARY 2022]
