About this listen

A serial killer is targeting victims in obscure historic settings - the Cloisters in New York City, the Glencairn in Philadelphia.... What is the connection? Is there a message to the murders?

The Death Code (A Remi Laurent FBI Suspense Thriller, Book 1) is the debut novel in a new series, by mystery and suspense author Ava Strong. Chosen by Barnes and Noble as one of the "Top 20 Favorite Indie eBooks of 2021"!

FBI Special Agent Daniel Walker - 40, known for his ability to hunt killers, his street-smarts, and his disobedience - is singled out from the Behavioral Analysis Unit, and assigned to the FBI’s new Antiquities Unit. The unit, formed to hunt down priceless relics in the global world of antiquities, has no idea how to enter the mind of a murderer.

Remi Laurent, 34, a brilliant history professor at Georgetown, is the world’s leading expert on obscure historic artifacts. Shocked when the FBI asks for her help in finding a killer, she finds herself reluctantly partnered with this rude American FBI agent. Special Agent Walker and Remi Laurent are an unlikely duo. With his ability to enter killers’ minds, and her unparalleled scholarship, the only thing they have in common is their determination to decode the clues, and stop a killer.

A pause-resisting crime thriller, featuring an unlikely partnership between a jaded FBI agent, and a brilliant historian, the Remi Laurent series is a riveting mystery, grounded in history, and packed with suspense, and revelations that will leave you continuously in shock, and listening late into the night.

Books two to six in the series: The Murder Code, The Malice Code, The Vengeance Code, The Deception Code, and The Seduction Code are also available.

I love a book when one of the key characters is so likable and relatable. Yes FBI agent Daniel Walker is very smart and worldly in his knowledge, but he is like you and I at times where he says and does what he wants which is sometimes perhaps doesn't quite fit the norm. Daniel also has difficulties in his waning marriage and a complicated past that often still haunts him. Daniel specialises in tracking down serial killers, but his performance at work has had him kicked off his usual team and "assigned" to a new antiquities unit. Little does he know but this assignment is about to very rapidly become even more challenging than his previous role. A killer is breaking into museums and at first seemingly taking nothing, but leaving dead security guards behind. But Daniel notices something odd about the broken artefacts in the museum, quickly leading him to seek out the assistance of Professor Remi Laurent, a Parisian at heart, whom has a specialty knowledge that soon has them on the hunt for a serial killer who is collecting artefacts and knowledge that has been hidden for over a century and may lead to new knowledge and a great historical find. But will they get the killer in time before he ends his path of destruction and collection of knowledge?

This is a great thriller that keeps you wanting to read more. I listened to the audio version and simply couldn't stop listening as the narration was very good. I was sucked right into the storylines right from the very beginning.

This is a great read and I can't wait to read the next in the series.

A great crime thriller capturing you right away
