About this listen

The new book from acclaimed writer Mark Dawson (author of the number one best-selling John Milton series), In Cold Blood is an action-packed thriller about ruthless betrayal and bloodthirsty vengeance.

Beatrix Rose was the most dangerous assassin in an off-the-books government kill squad until her former boss betrayed her. A decade later, she emerges from the Hong Kong underworld with payback on her mind. They gunned down her husband and kidnapped her daughter, and now the debt needs to be repaid. It's a blood feud she didn't start but is going to finish. Beatrix has already crossed one name off her Kill List. Her second target is a mercenary being held hostage by Somali terrorists. Can she infiltrate the most dangerous failed state on the planet and scrub him off the List, too?

Packed with explosive action and pause-resistant suspense, this is the must-listen first novel in a brand new series that is sure to be as successful as the John Milton series.

As always I finish a mark Dawson book waiting for the next....and to compound hit he gives you a teaser for book two!!....personally I think that books two and one could be combined...but I'm greedy ....now you may not like the plot or the premise of the book but u can't deny the fact that mark is a great story teller....his skill at telling the story is what makes these books worthwhile.....I thought that there was a great story to be told about Beatrix rose after meeting her in the John Milton series and I'm not disappointed bring it on mr Dawson!!

Beatrix Rose is incredible, she is lethal and dangerous in her pursuit of justice for her dead husband. This book is edge of your seat thrill from beginning to end. I absolutely love it and I can't put it down. The narrative is excellent, Mark Deakins is amazing.

This is the first audible story that I've listened to and I chose a Mark Dawson story as I love his Kindle books. This audible.com book was equally as good. I listened as I did my morning walks and boy, did my walks go quickly as I didn't really notice that I was even walking as I was so enthralled with Beatrix Rose. I was just sorry when it finished. Now I'll be hoping for some more Beatrix Rose very soon. Fabulous story, awesome author. Full of excitement. Highly recommended.

Excellent story by Mark Dawson
