About this listen

A notorious serial killer is back.

An edgy female police detective... An ambitious FBI special agent. Together, they are at the heart of the ticking-clock investigation for a psychopathic serial killer. The bond they forge in this crucible sets the stage for high-stakes suspense.

Detective Kara Quinn, on leave from the LAPD, is on an early morning jog in her hometown of Liberty Lake when she comes upon the body of a young nurse. The manner of death shows a pattern of highly controlled rage. Meanwhile in DC, FBI Special Agent Mathias Costa is staffing his newly minted Mobile Response Team. Word reaches Matt that the Liberty Lake murder fits the profile of the compulsive Triple Killer. It will be the first case for the MRT. This time, they have a chance to stop this zealous, if elusive, killer before he strikes again. But only if they can figure out who he is and where he is hiding before he disappears for another three years. The stakes are higher than ever before, because if they fail, one of their own will be next....

Central story idea was good and the characterisation is strong.

Writing veers into trite sentiment in parts, and generally feels like it could have benefited from an editor willing to tighten it up.

Did not enjoy the narrator at all. It’s probably as a result of recent listening to other books whose narrators have been able to convey distinction and subtlety, really making each separate characters voice come alive; that is not the case here.

I really wanted to like this book more because I was invested in the story, but by the end I was more irritated by the narration than anything else.

Story is ok but gets laboured at times
