Summary
No matter how deep you bury the bodies, their ghosts linger in the very concrete of a city.
Al Harris’s actions haven’t gone unnoticed, and not all that attention is good. There are some people starting to worry the next cold case Harris solves will be one they’d rather stayed buried.
After being questioned by a couple of mysterious men, Harris comes back to find his office in ruins and Judy attacked - and all his case files stolen. Now he’s got some questions on his hands: What is it about those cases that is so important? What is being covered up? And who is behind this attack?
The resulting investigation will take Harris away from the small towns he’s become accustomed to and back to the city of Chicago. The famous days of Al Capone and the Untouchables might be over, but the mafia still rules Chicago in its own way, and Harris is about to find out for himself just how alive and kicking they still are. Some of these powerful mob families go back decades, as do their sins.

Old people are like elephants ...
It's difficult to quantify if this is supposed to be an hard boiled detective tale, the main protagonist certainly is, or a comedy. Certainly, secretary Judy is a good injector of humour with her mother hen act. But whichever it is, this is an enjoyable read.
Al Harris, the ex detective turned P.I., works cold cases. When threatened by two men, demanding his case files be surrendered to them, and the his office is searched, his secretary knocked out, Harris is more determined than ever to look back 30 years to find out why such interest is now being generated. Could the Mafia be involved?
Narrator, John Snipes, makes an excellent Harris, his deep, gruff voice feeling very appropriate. His delivery is brisk and slightly clunky, again suggesting the humour beneath the investigation.
This is a short story, stand alone although it does build on it's predecessor, a little quirky and very enjoyable. My thanks to the rights holder for freely gifting me a complimentary copy of Concrete Graveyard, at my request, via Audiobook Boom. I look forward to future encounters with the cold case private eye.
