About this listen

When a sniper kills four people on Boston Common, Boston homicide detective Mike Houston and his partner Anne Bouchard are sent to investigate the case. Amidst the blood and terror, Houston discovers similarities, likenesses the killer’s positioning, his choice of victims, and his code of ethics between the crime scene and his own training as a US Marine scout and sniper. And with the staging of the scene set for prime shock value, Houston has to wonder what it is this murderer intends to accomplish. The connection is confirmed in the worst possible way when the sniper strikes again, this time killing Houston’s ex-wife, severing what’s left of the bond between Houston and his estranged daughter, Susie. It’s personal now, and as the death toll rises, Houston and Bouchard will stop at nothing to find the cold-blooded sniper who’s making a mockery of their department. In a final gesture of cat and mouse depravity, the killer kidnaps Susie, luring Houston to an island on a remote lake in Maine for a deadly, sniper-to-sniper showdown.

I enjoyed it a lot and I think this writer has a good future as his stories get even better

Surprisingly good

The story is quite predictable and the dialogue is a little clunky at times. The Boston crime aspect was quite entertaining and narrator performed it well but the sniper plot and subject matter read like a text book and then there's the overuse of quotes and passages from the art of war and the scout snipers training manual which read like the author is trying way too hard to sound authentic. Mildly entertaining but don't think I'll listen to any more from this author.

Well told story, with a few twists

A boring story vaguely wrapped around a need for revenge. Pointless plot with ridiculous bumbling characters. Save yourself the exasperation & give this book a miss.

Terrible
