The Efficiency Expert by Edgar Rice Burroughs ~ Full Audiobook [mystery]

The Efficiency Expert by Edgar Rice Burroughs audiobook.

Genre: mystery

Fresh out of college, Jimmy Torrance has the confidence of a campus champion and none of the patience to live on his father's money. He heads for 1920s Chicago determined to earn a respectable place in the world, only to discover that charm and athletic glory do not translate into a paycheck. Hungry, broke, and humiliated by one job hunt after another, Jimmy falls in with the city's rougher company, including a shrewd pickpocket called The Lizard and Edith, a streetwise young woman known as Little Eva, whose unexpected loyalty keeps him from going under. When Jimmy meets the poised Elizabeth Compton, he glimpses the society life he wants, but he is still stuck hustling for work wherever he can get it. Then an unlikely opportunity appears: Elizabeth's father needs an 'efficiency expert' to rescue his troubled factory, and Jimmy lands the position on a wing and a prayer. As he starts untangling waste, sabotage, and missing money, Jimmy collides with powerful enemies, social prejudice, and a crime that threatens to destroy his future. To survive, he will need real competence, and friends he never expected to trust.
