About this listen
At first glance, the death of media mogul “Big Bill” Argosy appears to be suicide. But his widow, Laila, thinks otherwise. Because Big Bill made enemies - lots of them. And he’d rather fight to the death than take his own life.
When the authorities refuse to investigate, Laila turns to the one person who can see connections in the universe where others can’t: Zip Ono, a young private investigator - and practicing Buddhist.
Zip quickly learns that there’s no shortage of suspects who might very well want Argosy dead. A foul-mouthed hedge fund operator. A pistol-packing TV anchor. Even the Criminal Investigator for the County Sheriff - who happens to be the only man Zip has ever loved.
Following a complex trail of clues, Zip draws on her faith and “the eye of the Buddha” to lead her to the truth. The truth of what happened to Big Bill Argosy. And the truth of her own heart.

Hilarious no brainer :-)
Should you enjoy the unbelievable lawlessness of Fortune, Gertie and IdaBelle in Sinful or Stephanie Plum, Lula and Ranger in Jersey this will tick a box.
Disengaging your brain will cause the kick back mode ideal for Zip,
the main interestingly behaved practicing Buddhist character of this amusing murder with mystery and mayhem book which is hopefully the first in a series.
Likeable laughs listen, thanks John :-)

Waste of time
The narrator’s voice was terrible and I found it difficult to distinguish between characters spoken word. The dialogue seemed to me to be unnecessarily crude with sexual act description and a lot of unnecessary swearing. Drawn out and boring mystery.
