Summary

Lieutenant Jacqueline Daniels is having a bad week. Her live-in boyfriend has left her for his personal trainer, chronic insomnia has maxed out her credit cards with late-night home shopping purchases, and a frightening killer who calls himself "The Gingerbread Man" is dumping mutilated bodies in her district. Between avoiding the FBI and their moronic profiling computer, joining a dating service, mixing it up with street thugs, and parrying the advances of an uncouth PI, Jack and her binge-eating partner Herb must catch the maniac before he kills again...and Jack is next on his murder list. Whiskey Sour is full of laugh-out-loud humor and edge-of-your-seat suspense, and it introduces a fun, fully drawn heroine in the grand tradition of Kinsey Millhone, Stephanie Plum, and Kay Scarpetta.

  • I can't even begin to express my disappointment with 'Whiskey Sour'. I mean, seriously, I can't decide what was more of a letdown - the lackluster storyline, the clichéd main character, or the reused villain. This novel was nothing but a mash-up of worn-out stereotypes, dull conversations, and unengaging personalities. To put it bluntly, it was a total waste of my hard-earned credit.
  • I was completely let down by the narration of Whiskey Sour. The use of numerous narrators did not enhance the book, and they attempted to give the audio a television-like quality, which was completely off. The main character was tough and gritty, but her attempts to be witty and humorous with jokes and one-liners missed the mark. In general, the story was decent.
  • The book felt like a mash-up of Janet Evanovich, Steven King, Jo Nesbo, and Darynda Jones. It had a perfect blend of darkness and humor, both together and separately. It gave off a vibe of "What Dexter would have become," which I found quite enjoyable. If you're a fan of any of the aforementioned authors, this audiobook might be right up your alley.
  • I had a blast with 'Whiskey Sour'! It's an entertaining tale that follows Lieutenant Jacqueline "Jack" Daniels as she tackles a case. The story keeps a good pace, blending action and plot development seamlessly. The characters are intriguing and even manage to bring some humor into the mix. While there's some violence, it's not excessively graphic like in the 'Afraid' series, making this book more well-rounded. I'm eagerly looking forward to continuing with the series! The alternating narrators really bring an exciting dynamic to the story, bringing the characters and the book to life. Both narrators do a fantastic job throughout the entire book.
  • At first, I was on the verge of giving up on this audiobook due to the subpar narration by Susie Breck. Fortunately, Dick Hill's performance as the male narrator was commendable, and the plot itself managed to hold my interest until the end. However, I found certain aspects of the story to be quite unbelievable, such as a police officer with a persistent bleeding bullet wound being allowed to continue active duty. While the discounted price of $4.95 made it an acceptable purchase, I won't be using my credits for the subsequent books in the series.
  • After reading 'Whiskey Sour', I have become a total Jack Daniels fan! The story was absolutely amazing, full of thrilling moments that had me on the edge of my seat. The narration was really well done and perfectly captured the essence of the book. Recently, I've been quite disappointed with audio books, but this one was a major success. I truly didn't want it to end and I'm definitely sticking around for the rest of the series. Trust me, this is a must-listen that is brimming with humor, suspense, and chilling details about serial killers. I absolutely adore it!
  • I didn't make it very far into the book, so I can't really comment on the writing or story. However, I did have some mixed feelings about the dual narrators, especially the female one. Right from the start, it seemed like she was struggling to catch her breath and pronounce every word clearly. It was quite distracting.
  • The narration in this audiobook is solid, even though I personally am not a fan of Dick Hill. However, the main character's performance was top-notch. The mystery itself was well-crafted, although I have to say that the ending could have been executed more effectively. Despite this, I am definitely interested in delving further into this series.
  • If you're a TV junkie, then 'Whiskey Sour' is the book for you. The narrators absolutely nail it with their stellar performances, and the story keeps you entertained from beginning to end. Well, except for maybe five minutes or so of dull but necessary content (at least in my opinion). Personally, I highly recommend it to all the Dexter and Law and Order fans out there, although it's way funnier than both those shows. Plus, the characters are even more lovable.
  • This series is one that I always come back to over and over. The dialogue between Jack, Herb and Harry is hilarious throughout this series. Especially considering the dark subject matter.
  • I could only listen to the first track...the two voices were horrible. The female reader sounded like she was on her last breath....each word sounded like she was out of breath and it was hard to follow. The male reader read with no distinction between the male characters. I "thought" it would be cool to hear the male characters read by a male reader but I was mistaken. Both of these readers were terrible. I may have liked the story but I could not put up with the readers. When I have written reviews...it is usually because of the reader. They can either make or break the story.
  • This was my first book by J.A. Konroth. Enjoyed the concept of "Jack Daniels". The pace was clipped and enjoyed the two voices one male one female for the narration. The hunt for a serial killer was the "same old same old" of my such stories. I get tired of the serial killer theme. This has interested me enough I will try some other books in the series.
  • This is actually a very funny book. It is a very dry humor, but it is very funny. At first , there were a couple of groaners, but it got much better. The characters are great, and the book is well read with two voices. I will say that the reader for Jack Danials sounded just like what I imagined the detective would sound like. The crime is interesting, but a little gory. Don't listen right before lunch. Unless you like gory, in which case, never mind.
  • Love the Jack Daniels Books & Whiskey Sour is no exception. The thrills are great & the humor is greater. You don't have to listen in order but it wouldn't hurt - might even make the enjoyment greater. Don't miss these!
  • Yes, per another review the book is suspenseful but the descriptions of the serial killer's actions were so violent and sexually graphic that I sent the book back before I had finished disk 3. Great if you like that kind of stuff but I thought it was way overdone.
