About this listen

Two septuagenarians win the lottery's biggest prize, dragging Walt and Ox into the most bizarre cases of their career.

The two "oldies" are determined to use their new-found wealth to re-create the past but instead propel Walt into the future where he must use drones and Star Trek phasers to balance the scales of justice.

When an extortion plot turns into kidnapping, Walt must boldly go where no cop has gone before to save himself and the millionaire.

Come along for another hilarious ride with the world's oldest and most lovable cop!

A superlative series. Walt Williams, the 69 years old cop, is his usual chatty self, telling tales about, and speculating on the wider consequences of, his exploits with the police as well as things said and done by friends. This time it's drugs, and personal liberty as well as meeting two old men who have just become super rich - and want to change the world.
As always, George Kuch's reading perfectly captures the character of Walt, warm, thoughtful, occasionally conflicted, very humerous, an excellent teller of tales. And his voicings of the other protagonists is also well performed.
A perfect pairing of story and narrator.
Excellent.

No amount of money can turn back the clock.

I enjoyed this book. I like the fact that with each book the author gets you thinking about the subject even after the story has finished. In this book Walt and Ox tackles a number of cases with there usual good luck, charm and sometimes bluster all of it very entertaining.
Walt and Ox are traveling to outer space were no man has been before, we'll okay going undercover at a star trek convention when a number of valuable items are stolen from the tv series. Walt is in his element, Ox not so much. At the same time two men win the jackpot by picking the winning lottery tickets and have great big ideas of how to spend the money. Unfortunately this brings lots of con men to Kansas city in the hopes of parting them from the money. When one of the schemes goes wrong and Walt rescues one of the men he steps into motion something that might change his and his friends lives forever because everybody needs a super hero or a tv show.
George Kuch is once again a good choice for the reader as he does an excellent job with all the characters and sets the comic scenes up well with his delivery.

Everyone needs a super hero
