Good Riddance Kindle Edition

4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars 102 ratings

Plenty of retirees have hobbies; Gloria’s just happens to be murderous . . . An entertaining new crime thriller by the author of Bang Bang, You’re Dead.

At this stage of her life, Gloria Jones just wants peace, quiet, and as little stress as possible. But her habit of helping others in need is hard to break—even when it gets her into trouble.

So when Gloria encounters a distraught young girl and learns about a shadowy London gang of human traffickers exploiting women, she simply can’t let such injustice stand. After all, it’s not the first time she has stopped vicious criminals from hurting someone . . .

Then again, her health isn’t what it used to be—and this time, there’s a distinct possibility she could wind up dead . . .

I guess I am just being selfish because I knew right from the beginning that this was the end for the notorious vigilante hero Gloria Jones, I realized why there were no more books in the series. RIP, Gloria Jones, you'll be missed.

The sequel doe not match the original, but the author's research and technical background make Good Riddance an interesting read. Florida's gutter vocabulary detracts from her earlier image.

The descriptions of sex trafficking victims should raise concerns and prompt A legal response by readers.

This is the second and final book about a sweet old lady who’s determined to rid her neighborhood of some despicable, evil people. We readers pull for her to succeed, but the law is determined to catch the vigilante. Our heroine is quite good at evading capture. Does the law win? Or does Gloria. You’ll enjoy reading the books to find out. I thank the author for an imaginative cast of characters and a good read.🤓

This is a story of coming out October 28, 2022. The paperback is available for order. This is about a delightful character name Gloria Jones, she haves a habit of helping people, she like a ruthless vigilante. she is not an any ordinary old Lady, Shi seeing injustice everywhere, she a determined and ruthless killer, striking back against violent criminals throughout the country, Gloria stands of for those who can't stand for themselves. Gloria's cause to rid society of criminals destroying decent people's lives. Detective Chief Inspector Juliet Simpson working for the National Crime Agency for just three weeks, have been successful in her job. partly because of intervention of her ex-lover, assistant Commissioner Graeme Skelton, who removed her as head of Operation Chiddingstone. And another person is character Detective Constable Stuart Graves an experience officer with ten years as a detective under his belt. His fair hair too long for an officer. This story is gripping exciting, entertaining, remarkable, sensational and spectacularly great. I enjoyed reading this novel.

I enjoyed reading this suspenseful story. This is a new author for me which I enjoyed how they used details to make it realistic. I look forward to reading more from them in the future. This is a well written book where the author's writing skills really make the story come to life. The characters are connectable and kept me turning pages fast. The twists and turns were just as great, they had me sitting on the edge of my seat just waiting to see what would happen next. This is a fast paced story that has alot going on but the author did a great job of keeping me on track with the story. I really enjoyed this book and I highly recommend it.

I didn’t know what to expect when I started reading this. Some parts had me talking to myself (or rather the characters) out loud. Some parts had me chuckling, and others had me incredibly angry/sad for the girls.

Couldn't put it down. Great follow up to bang bang your dead. The vigilante pensioner goes on the warpath again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blood, guts and foul language.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 25, 2022
Delighted to see a follow up to Gloria's first excursion.
This was not quite in the same league but the excitement was maintained as was Gloria's determination, strength of character and sheer guts.
Great character....not one to cross.
Some touching episodes where friendship was explored and relief experienced.

Some great descriptions of the seamier backwalks in central London.
Plenty of unpleasant characters on both sides of the legal system.
Probably too much unnecessary swearing. It didn't enhance the overall sinister atmospheres but presumably the author believes differently. Or just doesn't notice?

I'm not giving a spoiler. Job well done, Gloria . Memorable character. For me, a definite page turner.

Another gripping read from Evan, every bit as enjoyable as the others. The closing chapters in particular are absolutely brimming with tension.
