Publisher's summary

Jake Crosby has traded in a stockbroker's suit and tie for a standard-issue uniform. As a newly minted Mississippi game warden, he has two tough cases to cut his teeth on - the ongoing robbery of wealthy hunters and the ruthless search for a rumored hidden fortune.

According to local gossip, several million dollars have been missing since the conviction of local conman Bronson Bolivar, and following his death in prison, his two grown children have torn his property apart looking for the funds. As Jake searches for the robber who targets well-to-do outdoorsmen, he finds a trail leading to the Bolivars. But the allure of quick cash also draws unexpected interest from both Bronson's former cellmate and an upstanding federal judge. Will Jake understand the severity of the situation in time or get caught up in a web of deceit?

Not great literature, but light and fun suspense

This is my second Bobby Cole novel. The first was The Rented Mule. Old Money is Book 3 in the Jake Crosby series. The series is set in northern Mississippi. Old Money is a worthwhile listen.

My favorite of the series so far

This book is my favorite of the three book series so far. Interesting characters, both old and new. Great puppy antics(very realistic but funnier when they happen to some one else.) Jake is much more interesting as a game warden than a stock broker.

A Gripping Tale

As with the first two Jake Crosby stories, I enjoyed this tale immensely. Interesting dialogue and story line and suspense to keep you on the edge of your seat.

Great story

Great story. Some of the characters make really stupid decisions that makes you roll your eyes, but it’s still a good book. The writing could be better, but still good. But the author made a mistake that bugged me, he mentions two movies that wouldn’t have been playing at the theater at the same time. They weren’t released in the same year. Just one of my quirky pet peeves. I still enjoyed the book.

Reminds me of CJ Box

Cole's first book 'The Dummy Line', was a thriller. Oddly, not my usual thriller fare, but it was a very good book. The sequel was a letdown (imo). Now, Jake is emulating Joe Pickett? Of all the gigs in Mississippi - Game Warden? 🙄 The narration is VG.

Loved the series.

It is difficult writing book reviews because everyone has different ideas on what makes a book enjoyable and/or entertaining. A narrator can make or break a book. This narrator was great! I really enjoyed all three books. When I don’t find myself rolling my eyes at dumb story lines, skipping past ridiculous sex scenes where the lovers must have invented orgasms, all the main characters have gorgeous bodies (like overweight people can’t have great sex) or women always need a man to rescue them, then it is a pretty darn good book in my opinion. These hit the mark. I would recommend and I would listen to them again. Now I am off to find more books written by Bobby Cole and/or read by this narrator!

Fun read with interesting characters

Good plot, good narration and an interesting array of characters. I enjoyed it during my daily exercise. It made the time past quickly.

Short Read

Interesting story with good character development but not up to.par with some of Cole's other more suspenseful tales that keep the reader on edge. At the end it felt almost like a short story.
