The Prostitutes’ Ball Free Audiobook

Stephen J. Cannell
Read by Scott Brick

Shane Scully, the L.A. homicide cop, isn’t sure what’s more challenging: his tricky new case or his flashy new partner. An old Hollywood mansion is the scene of a shooting that leaves three dead; evidence found at the scene seems to connect these crimes with a quarter-century-old murder-suicide. Shane and his new partner, a detective who sold one of his previous cases to the movies (and who seems interested in making sure this one turns out in a suitably Hollywood manner), dig into the old crime and uncover a modern mystery that puts both their lives at risk. Cannell has written several Scully novels, but he isn’t anywhere close to using up the character, or to sinking into formulaic mediocrity. The novel is perfectly fresh, and it’s a mystery why someone—veteran film producer Cannell, for example—hasn’t brought Scully to the big or small screen. He’s a great character, and this is another fine novel in the series.
