Nemesis: The Final Case of Eliot Ness A Novel Audiobook

" Based upon the true story of Eliot Ness trying to catch a serial killer in Cleveland. The whole time I am reading it I thought I was watching a bad film noir movie. Cliches abound, so much so that you felt like you read the page already. "

" I have read alot this author's "justice" books, and really enjoyed them. This was a great blend of fact and fiction. The ending was a little abrupt. It gave a better picture of Ness,and the case he couldn't solve, and how it haunted him for the rest of his life. A very enjoyable read. "

" Interesting, based on true incidences in the life of Elliot Ness after Chicago and Al Capone. "

" Stinks. Written by a non-writer. Waste of time. "

" Based on true fact, Eliot Ness of Al Capone fame, tracks the first serial killer in Cleveland in the fall of 1935. A chilling, fast rread full of excitement. "

" There was one case that Eliot Ness was unable to solve: the Torso Murders case in Cleveland, OH. It haunted him for the remainder of his life. Fast paced but the ending was on the unrealistic side. "

" Very informative novel based on fact about the life of Elliot Ness after his involvement with the Al Capone case. "

" To enjoy this novel, it helps to be a fan of Elliot Ness as the author undoubtedly is. The story follows the last case of Ness with a few added surmises from the author. If the pace could have been faster as at the end, this would have been better. 4 of 10 stars "

" Okay, I'm giving it 4 stars b/c I felt like it was an accurate portrayal of Eliot and dismissing the fact that the ending was shocking and disappointing. The book was so well assembled in its near realism that hitting such a fictitious ending was like being slapped in the face. "

" A fictionalized tale of Eliot Ness's last years, but based on actual events. Stalking what is perported to be the first serial killer in the US, did Ness get him or not? It's worth reading the book to find out. "

" This was a fascinating read! It's fiction, but so plausible that you forget it's made up! I heartily recommend it for mystery fans! "

" Good crime story based on historical events, though not as good as some others I have read. "

" slow start, but interesting reading. "

" Very entertaining and factual to a degree "

" Another local Okie writer. Cleaning up Ness's final mess. Nicely done, but can't stop seeing Kevin Costner as Ness. Where is Robert Stack when you need him? "

" Good historical fiction, and makes you wonder what really happened in this unsolved mystery. "

" Breezy fast read, but has some depth (other than the case itself) to it. I won't spoil your fun by telling you any details of the story, but if you only know EN from the Robert Stack portrayal the book and the afternotes are an eye-opener "

" Loved it--I would call it "historical fiction". Fictionalized account of the case that ruined Eliot Ness' reputation and career. But Bernhardt does a great job of redeeming Ness' reputation in this hard to put down book! Well researched, well written! "
