Welcome to Litsy!

Pigeon Tony‘s Last Stand isn‘t in the Litsy database, but, since the characters appear in The Vendetta Defense, I tagged it. This is longer than most short stories but shorter than a novella. A group of 80 something year-old men are concerned when their 5th grade neighbor boy is approached by drug dealers wanting him to be a messenger. They decide to do something about it. The ending was a bit rushed. #Audiowalk book was still Finlay Donovan.

It‘s been awhile since I‘ve spent time with the Rosato & Associates series. Lawyer Judy Carrier defends an elderly Italian man, Pigeon Tony, accused of murder. He admitted to killing Angelo Coluzzi because of a vendetta that started more than 50 years ago. Lots of spicy Italian drama and a new love blooms for Judy. An entertaining read with laughable moments in Lisa Scottoline‘s style.

Another great crime novel by Scottoline narrated by Barbara Rosenblatt. Judy, a lawyer at the all female law firm of Rossato & Denunzio, is asked to defend a 79 year old man who killed his enemy, but is quite clear on the fact he didn‘t commit murder. At turns humorous and heartbreaking, filled with quirky, delightful characters, it‘s a entertaining romp through South Philly.
