I'm not a big fan of historical fiction, but the thriller and mystery part is interesting me.

Usually Crime and Historical books can be quite overwhelming but this book seems like a nice catch even for those who are not ready fans of these bogus topics.The suspense and character development is stunning

I love the sound of this book. Crime mysteries are one of my favorite genres and this sounds great. With the added bonus of the nefarious dealings of Jimmy Shea, this suspenseful thriller is now added to my books-to-read pile. Congratulations on a brilliant review!

This suspenseful crime thriller is the perfect book interested in this genre. The plot of a man witnessing someone murdering a scientist which placed his life in danger sounds like something worth reading. Great review.

Congratulations to the author on BOTD, and nicely done on the review, Raymond N. The book sounds like a fun read for those who enjoy historical fiction, mysteries, and romance. I'd be curious to learn how the title "Down Heartbreak Boulevard" connects to the story. And books about private investigators are always fun.

It sounds like a great murder mystery book filled with suspense. I’d love to read it and see how Quinn, who's a private investigator helps the FBI solve the crimes.

A murder mystery and an innocent life in danger, and all this in a historical setting sounds like a book for me! I can’t wait to see how the story unfolds for Aiden, and if Jimmy’s word is to be trusted. Thank you for the intriguing review!

Thank you for your review. This sounds like a good, old-fashioned thriller and mystery! Historical references and contexts are intended to make the story more plausible and increase the readers' sense of wonder. It takes great skill for an author to blend all these into the plot successfully.

The title suggests a whimsical love story with a devastating ending. The expedient review made it sound tactical and mysterious. So the reader speculates unceasingly from prologue to the backcover. Enjoy the stroll DOWN HEARTBREAK BOULEVARD.😎
