Virtual voice is computer-generated narration for audiobooks.
It’s a deadly game of who’s who, and who isn’t.

Things get pretty sticky for PI Jax Diamond and his courageous canine partner, Ace, when their best friend, a cop, is framed for murder. And not just anyone’s murder. The victim is the fiancée of the most notorious gangster in the city, Orin Marino, Jax’s worst enemy.

Laura Graystone, the budding Broadway Star and Jax’s new squeeze, proves to be an ingenious partner as they sift through clues trying to find the real murderer. But when Jax is pinched for another crime, Laura and Ace are forced to go undercover.

Hang on to your seat as Jax, Laura and Ace take you on another crazy, whodunit ride during the Roaring Twenties. Where no one is who they seem, and those who do, aren’t. Anything goes during an era of fun and frolic, song and dance, speakeasies, gangsters, bootlegging, and bribes.

Each book in the series can be read as a standalone. Crime Fiction Mystery Cozy Hard-Boiled Animals Feel-Good

Framed, the second of the Jax Diamond Mysteries, is the second book I’ve read or listened to by Gail Meath. What’s interesting, I never read or listened to the first book in the series, so It’s high time I take care of that omission now that I’ve listened to books two & three.

This series is a hybrid between cozy stories and detective pulp thrillers of the 40’s. Like Deuce, I was fully entertained by this story and the predicament Jax and Tim found themselves in, of course Ace and Laura play a key part in solving the case.

If you enjoy detective stories with a flavor of old-time storytelling, set in the prohibition era, you should give the Jax Diamond series a shot. – I would recommend, unlike me, starting with Songbird, book one.

I listened to the audiobook of Framed, narrated by virtual voice. While virtual voices can be hit-or-miss in stores, the voice used in this series makes it feel like I’ve sat down to listen to an old radio serial.

Highly entertaining detective story.
