Summary
It’s C.T.’s first case. He wants an easy one. Instead, he gets Alice.
C.T. Ferguson spent years as a hacker. He lived in Hong Kong, working against the Chinese government. Then they found him, threw him in jail, and eventually kicked him out. In Baltimore, C.T. sets himself up as a private investigator. Then, Alice walks in. She’s sure her husband is cheating on her. C.T. looks into it, but isn’t convinced. He soon discovers Alice has serious problems of her own.
When Alice’s troubles get even worse, C.T. finds his own life in danger. With a liar for a client and enforcers hounding him, can C.T. prevent his first case from becoming his last?

Perfect misogyny
If you love to have your place as an alpha male in an ignorant misogynistic male mirrored in your reading then this is the book for you!
The recording is poor quality in parts, with large gaps between sections that aren’t changes in chapters, but if you can listen past that you will be rewarded with the worst kind of men we all know, but the writer has indulged in his main character and put all of the traits we love and put them in to one character.
The Reluctant Detective is a trust fund, entitled brat who gives his time for free to do a job he doesn’t want to avoid being disinherited by very wealthy parents after breaking the law in another country.
Assumes the alpha male role in every relationship which is deplorable and his references to women only as much as their use as sexual objects is really very dull and vapid of him, but really reinforces the character of this man.
I literally didn’t care about ANY of the characters and got a bit lost in the narrative because of this - not that it is particularly hard hitting or complicated. Much like the main character the plot and narrative is meh.
The narrator wasn’t able to pull off the alpha male character so that made it more meh, but not to dig the narrator because he was reading utter drivel - I would hope that with better content he would do a better job.
Overall, would I recommend this book…… only as how NOT to write.
