Description

Introducing Junior Bender, the favorite burglar turned private investigator of Hollywood crooks

Junior Bender is a Los Angeles burglar with a magic touch. Since he first started breaking into houses at age fourteen, he's never once been caught. But now, after twenty-two years building an exemplary career, Junior has been blackmailed by Trey Annunziato, one of the most powerful crime bosses in LA, into acting as a private investigator on the set of Trey's porn venture, which someone keeps sabotaging. The star Trey has lined up to do all that's unwholesome on camera is Thistle Downing, America's beloved child star, who now lives alone in a drug-induced stupor, destitute and uninsurable. Her starring role will be the scandalous fall-from-grace gossip of rubberneckers across the country. No wonder Trey needs help keeping the production on track.

Junior knows what he should do—but doing the right thing will land him on the wrong side of LA's scariest mob boss. With the help of his precocious twelve-year-old daughter, Rina, and his criminal sidekick, ex-getaway driver Louie the Lost, Junior will have to pull off a miracle to get out of this mess.

      • premium: False
      • source: Brett Battles, author of the award-winning Jonathan Quinn series
      • content: "Tim Hallinan has done it again. He's created a must-read series that you will find hard to put down! Junior Bender is all you could ever want in a hero-thief: smart and funny, with a penchant for finding himself in situations he'd much rather avoid. Do not miss any of these books. A must read in my house."
      • premium: True
      • source: AudioFile Magazine
      • content: Hallinan paints a vivid picture of the many flamboyant characters of Hollywood's back lots--from thieves to gangsters to shady movie directors and producers. The listener cannot help but feel a connection with each of them. Give credit to Peter Berkrot for striking a hilariously sarcastic tone to portray the infamous thief Junior Bender and his assignment to make sure a former child television star that all of America has fallen in love with finishes her next film. Thistle Downing has had a tough life since leaving the world of television, and now she's being coerced back into the limelight in more adult fare by an opportunistic producer with Mafia connections. Berkrot's performance is full of humor and heart as the film and its star are sabotaged on many fronts. This is the first in the Junior Bender series. Let's hope the team of Hallinan and Berkrot comes around again. S.C. (c) AudioFile 2013, Portland, Maine
