In this long-awaited sequel, our fearless protagonist Judith Singer finds herself once again embroiled in murder and mayhem. But hey, life moves on, right? Judith now sports a shiny new doctorate in history and spends most of her days at the chaotic St. Elizabeth's College, where the history department could give any soap opera a run for its money. Oh, and did I mention she's a widow? Tragically, her husband Bob passed away shortly after completing the prestigious New York City Marathon. Talk about a bittersweet victory.
Now, it's been a solid twenty years since Judith last laid eyes on her former lover, Nelson Sharpe of the Nassau County Police Department. Yet, try as she might, she just can't shake the memory of their passionate past. But hey, who needs Nelson when there's a juicy murder case to sink her teeth into?
The spotlight falls squarely on Greg Logan, the husband of a missing woman named Courtney. With her sudden disappearance, all eyes are on Greg, especially considering his family ties to the notorious Long Island mobster, Philip "Fancy Phil" Lowenstein. But hold your horses, folks. Since there's no body, there's no arrest. Case closed? Not quite.
One fateful day in May, Judith stumbles upon a shocking revelation. She flicks on the radio and hears the pool man spilling the beans to a reporter: he found a raccoon floating in the Logans' pool. But guess what? It's not a raccoon at all. It's Courtney, and this officially transforms the case into a homicide. It's like someone unleashed a hurricane of adrenaline within our dear Judith, and she's fired up and ready to solve this perplexing puzzle.
Judith boldly offers her services to the police's prime suspect, Greg Logan. But alas, he dismisses her as just another neighborhood oddball. Little does he know, though, that his father, Fancy Phil himself, sees potential in Judith. Could this unexpected turn of events lead to a partnership that no one saw coming?
"Long Time No See" showcases Susan Isaacs at her absolute best. Her wit is sharper than ever, and she spins an irresistible mystery that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Prepare to reunite with Judith Singer, the audacious and endearing heroine we've sorely missed. It's been far too long, but trust me, this audiobook is worth the wait. So sit back, relax, and let Susan Isaacs take you on this thrilling journey of suspense, romance, and everything in between. A solid 3 out of 5 stars, my friends. Happy listening!
