Title: Invasive Procedures Author: Orson Scott Card, Aaron Johnston Narrator: Stefan Rudnicki Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 51 mins Language: English Release date: 10-18-07 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 345 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Frank Hartman is also a brilliant virologist, working for the government's ultra-secret biohazard agency. He has discovered how to neutralize Galen's DNA-changing virus. Now he is the one man who stands in the way of Galen's plan to "improve" the entire human race. This taut thriller takes the listener a few years into the future and shows the promise and danger of new genetic medicine techniques. Critic Reviews: "[An] intriguing medical thriller...raises pertinent regulatory questions." ( Publishers Weekly) "Pace, characterization, and chilling suspense all polished to a high gloss." ( Booklist) Members Reviews: It pains me. It pains me to write bad things about Card as he is my favorite author, but sometimes you have to call a dud a dud. Don't get me wrong for some authors this would be a masterpiece, but out of Card we expect better. This starts out as a poor imitation of Michael Crichton, then moves into an ok imitation of Dean Koontz and finishes as Stephanie Myers. Sprinkled through are touches of Card, such as characters questioning themselves and there inner strife. At one point a 40 year old in the future references the Marx Brothers. I am 54 and living now and I would never reference the Marx Brothers. The amount of endless debate in action situations is unbelievable. These people are trying to escape a building, time is an issue and they are debating the most minute details. In one part Card gives a boy lessons on how to be a coward. There is a lot here on genetics. I really liked the part where a megalomaniac makes four copies of himself in order to better rule the world, yet he is too stupid to figure out that four copies of himself would try to kill each other. Before there was Scalzi and Wheaton, there was Card and Rudnicki. Rudnicki does an excellent job. If you have never read Card, please don't start here. Card has written the best sci-fi book ever in "Enders Game". You must read that. Then if you want great fantasy read Seventh Son and the two books that follow, skip the rest in that series. For scary read Treasure Box. Hart's Hope is real good and Songmaster is Card in a nutshell. I should have read the reviews Orson, Orson, what happened here? On your worst days you are better than this. Tedious, uninspired, boring, predictable, juvenile and, let's not mince words, just plain awful. Please don't ever do this again. I couldn't bear to hear the last two hours of the book. Listen carefully, that sound you hear is me flinging this virtual book out my virtual window. reads like the worst of robin cook I frankly find it hard to believe that Orson Scott Card had anything to do with this. Unbelievably bad writing - terrible cliches, two dimensional characters, with a dumb plot. It's also got to be hard to make potentially fascinating science (gene therapy) so boring. I just don't know how this one got out the door. Purely sold on Card's name; I can only hope that the writing is mostly Mr. Johnston's, but I fully put the responsibility on Orson Scott Card who should have stopped such an awfully produced project. Orson you're better than this Unfortunately Mr.

Title: Deadly Remedy Subtitle: Rhea Lynch, M.D., Book 3 Author: Gwen Hunter Narrator: Carol Hendrickson Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 3 mins Language: English Release date: 01-03-14 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 126 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: As a physician in the ER of a rural South Carolina hospital, Dr. Rhea Lynch is a dedicated healer, a woman of science, and to some degree, a skeptic. But her most fundamental beliefs are put to the test with the arrival of a traveling faith healer, whose "cures" produce some baffling mysteries: a young quadriplegic woman can suddenly move her arms; a chronic pain sufferer begins to dance again. Events go from bizarre to deadly with the arrival of a gravely injured but violent young woman determined to practice a dark, deadly magic. As the pieces of this puzzle begin to fall into place, Rhea will find her beliefs, her skill and her understanding tested in unfathomable ways as she enters a realm where science and strange faiths collide. Members Reviews: The Dialog Sparkles This is the first time I have read a book by Gwen Hunter. I discovered after I bought the book it is part three of a series. Apparently the series has been out since 2004, but with the new release in Kindle and audio format it has revived the series. The series is set in Dawkins County, a rural part of South Carolina. Rheane Rheaburn Lynch, M.D. is an emergency room physician for Dawkins Countys small hospital. This particular book deals with faith healing. There is lots of medical terminology, all explained and lots of suspense, action, humor as well as small southern town politics. Hunter has developed highly rich complex characters and a compelling suspenseful plot. It is a fast easy read. Carol Hendrickson narrates the story. loving the series with each book! Getting better with each book!! Surprises in every chapter. Definitely worth reading. Looking forward to the next one.. Boring!! What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? A lot more action & suspense, less female drama. What could Gwen Hunter have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you? I was expecting a medical thriller novel similar to a Robin Cook novel. This is more of a female novel concerned with what I assume to be everyday female thoughts such as one's own physical attractiveness, should I or shouldn't I date or sleep with this man or that, etc., instead of a gripping medical thriller. I forced myself to listened to the first half of the book before I finally gave up on it. Not a man's book! Would you be willing to try another one of Carol Hendricksons performances? The reading was too fast. Ms Hendrickson tried to add drama, tension and urgency in her reading, but one cannot add what's not in the book. Ms. Hendrickson tried too hard to make an uninteresting book interesting and could not pull it off. I would be willing to try another one of her performance, its not her fault the novel was bad.

After a second similar call, at her home, she starts to link the calls and caller with a series of nurse disappearances. Instead of marriage and a honeymoon, Gina is drawn into the illicit, dangerous trade in human body parts. Members Reviews: Great read. A strange tale of missing nurses, packages, an insane butcher and abused son. You know the cast of characters from almost the beginning, but how the tale will unfold is constantly surprising. I havent read anything by these authors previously, but as it was a freebie from Amazon, I gave it try. I wasnt sorry. 4.5 stars. REALLY how much SLOWER could it go? This was a PAINFULLY slow moving story. I wanted it to end and,when we finally got to the end it was over like a flash and still there was no end... Horrible This book was horrible. Small minded. Geared toward a violent preadolescent. No value at all. Dreadful Dreadful narration spoilt any story couldnt finish the book because of it. Early part of story very boring so narration just irritated.

Oath of Office Audiobook by Michael Palmer

Title: Oath of Office Author: Michael Palmer Narrator: Robert Petkoff Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 24 mins Language: English Release date: 02-14-12 Publisher: Macmillan Audio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 570 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: From the New York Times best-selling author of A Heartbeat Away and The Last Surgeon comes a shocking new novel at the crossroads of politics and medicine. What if a well respected doctor inexplicably goes on a murderous rampage? When Dr. John Meacham goes on a shooting spree, his business partner, staff, and two patients are killed in the bloodbath. Then Meacham turns the gun on himself. The blame falls on Dr. Lou Welcome. Welcome worked with Meacham years before as a counselor after John's medical license had been revoked for drug addiction. Lou knew that John was an excellent doctor and deserved to be practicing medicine, and fought hard for his license to be restored. After hearing the news of the violent outburst, Lou is in shock like everyone else, but mostly he's incredulous. When he begins to look into it further, the terrifying evidence he finds takes him down a path to an unspeakable conspiracy that seems to lead directly to the White House and those in the highest positions of power. Members Reviews: Not too believable Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not? Story started off pretty good and then went down hill. Having the Presidents wife on the caper, corn making people crazy. It got out of hand. Performance was good. Corny!! If you listen to this book you will know why I said it is corny! and it really is. Not only that, it is terrible. I agree with the previous review, that it is disjointed. It is also not really a medical mystery, although characters are MD's. Also a forced romantic part and a silly politcal angle. I can't believe Palmer wrote this. Worst Book Ever from Palmer Any additional comments? This was as disjointed as a book can be. No character development, unbelievable story line that was so far out there, I couldn't stay focused on the book. ( Really, the first lady bit!) I was appalled that Michael Palmer, who has written some good medical mysteries in the past put his name on this one. Don't bother wasting your time. Very disappointed This story was so predictable and simplistic I couldn't even finish it. Michael Connelly has written some good stories, so I really was not expecting such a terrible plot, but this is what I would expect from a mid-level high school kid. Flat As Imitation Cola You've drunk the stuff... Looks like Coke, Pepsi, or Dr. Pepper, maybe smells like one of them - and then you taste it. Ewwwww! There's no there - there. And that's the problem with "Oath of Office". Palmer is an imitator, good enough to get published, even good enough to have an audience of franken-writing people guzzle it, But for folks like me who've ingested the Pepsi, Cokes, and Dr. Ps for years, the book is like a sugar-free doughnut with all the gluten, trans-fats, and most of its taste excised. Think of it as say... Robin Cook's med-thriller plotting and narrative after lipo-suctioning away too much muscle. Palmer's frank in the ending interview in explaining that his knowledge of politics is Google-grazing thin. And yet, this is supposed to be a political thriller. Instead it's an off brand of Hubris Cola, all looks and smell but a gassy tease that leaves my taste buds really frustrated. Ditto the pointless action sequences sufficient to create the weight of a novel. I cared about no one in this cast in spite of Robert Petkoff's journeyman voices.

Viral Intent Audiobook by Dr. Judith Lucci

Title: Viral Intent Subtitle: Alex Destephano, Book 3 Author: Dr. Judith Lucci Narrator: Becky Parker Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 22 mins Language: English Release date: 10-05-17 Publisher: Pro Audio Voices Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: With POTUS and members of Congress in the Big Easy for a political convention, an unidentified killer virus in the Crescent City emergency room has physicians baffled, hospital staff frightened, and the CDC on their way to assist. When the first death from the mysterious virus is a Secret Service agent guarding the president, a terrorist attack is feared. Matters get worse with the murder of a prominent politician in the French Quarter. Alex and Jack must learn to play well with the CDC, FBI, and Secret Service and enlist the help of the enemy to save the streets of New Orleans from disaster. Members Reviews: Captivating This is the first book I've read in this series and although it is the third book that the lead character, Alexandra Destephano (Alex) is featured, I didn't feel like I was missing anything or needed to have read the earlier novels. The book captured my attention from page one and never let up. Concerned, as it is, with a terrorist plot to spread a deadly vaccine on American soil, I couldn't wait to find out how it was going to play out and how wide and massive the carnage was to result before it became contained (if ever). I was amazed at how well researched the story was, right from the general medical aspect, the disease control protocol and the law enforcement procedures that would coordinate in the event of such an outbreak. Perhaps what stunned me the most was learning how prevalent it is that labs, secret and otherwise, have consistently been working on modifying and bioengineering various strains of viruses since at least the fifties in this country (other countries, like Russia, have their own programs going back even longer). Whereas some of these studies are for general medical research, other experiments are and were being conducted to produce deadly microorganisms for military purposes. One such program mentioned concerns a viral contamination with a polio vaccine that some claim has been responsible for the explosion of cancer in this country since the sixties. As an edge on the seats thriller, this novel succeeds blissfully and I particularly liked how the terrorists were depicted without succumbing to stereotyping and racial profiling. In fact, this aspect of the story was also well researched and I actually learned of connections between Islamist jihad groups that I was not aware of prior. Even the characterization of the "evil-doers" is fair and balanced, not all of those responsible believe in what they are doing and there is also major dissension within their ranks, which also seems real and further extended my interest to see how the various plot-lines played out. All-in-all a terrific, captivating read! Edge of your seat, fast-paced, crime drama! To Rescue the streets of New Orleans, Alex and Jack must be at the top of their game with the Secret Service CDC, FBI. In the Emergency Division, an unnamed virus is claiming the lives of numerous persons while the NOPD are scrambling over the dreadful demise of a current, popular official. Alarming the cores of police force worldwide is cyber talk, informing of something atrocious happening. Trust becomes a major issue for Alex as the plot thickens. Even though things are looking bleak to win this war, defeat is not in Alexâs vocabulary. This is a gripping, riveting and stirring tale, exposing the possibilities of how a fatal an infectious virus could bring about worldwide devastation.

The Steel Kiss Audiobook by Jeffery Deaver

Title: The Steel Kiss Subtitle: Lincoln Rhyme, Book 12 Author: Jeffery Deaver Narrator: Jeff Harding Format: Unabridged Length: 15 hrs and 47 mins Language: English Release date: 03-22-16 Publisher: Hodder & Stoughton Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 20 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Master of suspense Jeffery Deaver returns with the latest gripping thriller featuring paraplegic forensic detective Lincoln Rhyme. Amelia Sachs is hot on the trail of a killer. She's chasing him through a department store in Brooklyn when suddenly the escalator malfunctions. The stairs give way, and several people are trapped, with one man horribly mangled by the gears. Sachs is forced to let her quarry escape as she jumps in to try to help save the victims. But was this a random freak accident? Is the killer's presence in the store just before the disaster a simple coincidence, or is there a deeper connection? And how will they catch the killer - now that Lincoln Rhyme has retired? Members Reviews: Another great read Everything you come to expect from a Lincoln and Amelia book. Great plot and personal story. Excellent narrator. Highly entertaining Now I know that Jeff Harding is not everyone's cup of tea as a narrator. However I happen to like his delivery as he brings the characters alive, so that you are never in any doubt as to which one is speaking. In a book with such an amount of technical evidence, this is very important. Whilst it may not have had the usual twists and turns that characterise some of the other Rhyme novels, the relationship between the main characters has grown and become almost comfortable, which far from being a criticism, makes the book flow well. Dare I say it Lincoln himself has softened slightly and is finally showing a glimmer of emotion! As someone who works in the field of automation with web enabled products, I can confirm that theoretically much of what Jeffery Deaver writes about is possible, which from my perspective added to the enjoyment. If I was to say one thing, it would be that there could have been a little more to the apprehension of Amelia's ex, Nick. I thought it was wrapped up with a bit of a leap of faith, which the author may argue was just the point. A very fine book and thoroughly entertaining. If you like the idea of hacking into technology, a suggestion would be to read one of Deaver's earlier books, The Blue Nowhere, which although a little dated now technology wise, is a great book nonetheless. Good, not great....and the narrator is argh!! A good book, not as tightly woven plot wise as some of Deaver's other Lincoln Rhyme books but never the less raises some interesting plot lines and questions about the future relationship between man and technology. The narrator however I found very annoying particularly for the first 6 chapters where he relentlessly employs a raised inflection at the end of each sentence. It was so annoying I almost gave up but he got better as the book progressed, especially when there was more dialogue. another brilliant Rhyme book. easy listening but engaging. I've enjoyed all in the series, great characters and interesting plot. avrege not Jeffrey deavers finest work, it's OK. ..no more, no less. I missed the the nail-biting

Title: The Rook Author: Daniel O'Malley Narrator: Katy Carmichael Format: Unabridged Length: 17 hrs and 57 mins Language: English Release date: 01-17-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 41 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: "The body you are wearing used to be mine." So begins the letter Myfanwy Thomas is holding when she awakes in a London park surrounded by bodies all wearing latex gloves. With no recollection of who she is, Myfanwy must follow the instructions her former self left behind to discover her identity and track down the agents who want to destroy her. She soon learns that she is a Rook, a high-ranking member of a secret organization called the Checquy that battles the many supernatural forces at work in Britain. She also discovers that she possesses a rare and deadly supernatural ability of her own. Filled with characters both fascinating and fantastical, The Rook is a richly inventive, suspenseful fantasy. An astonishing debut from a brilliant new voice. Members Reviews: A fun listen I've seen this book described as M15 for wizards but I think it might be more X-Men for bureaucrats. That said, I really loved it and found it highly entertaining. Can't wait for the next book. Really fantastic This is one of the best books I've ever read! And that's from someone that reads as an Olympic sport. It gripped me from the first sentence , " the body you are wearing used to be mine", till the very last. The story is very different but utterly compelling. It's a great story, extremely well read and totally captivating. I simply can't recommend it highly enough! Miss it at your peril! Excellent Narration of an Excellent Book! What did you like best about this story? The story bought a new approach to both the Supernatural and the Spy genres by amalgamating them into this fantastic book. This was the first book in a while that I immediately started again for a second read! I can't wait for the second book and hope that Katy will be narrating it. What does Katy Carmichael bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? Katy's narration of the story bought out the protagonist quirky nature in an enjoyable to fun way. There were several times onlookers would have looked at me strangely as I laughed out loud walking down the street listening to the book. Read it and listen to it! Totally absurd, smartly written, entertaining and unexpected! The narrator was GREAT! I really hope there's a next one and that is just as good as this one, because I felt a mix of sadness and anticipation when I was about to finish this one. Makes bureaucracy interesting! It's a miracle! What about Katy Carmichaels performance did you like? The narrator is brilliant and delivers the story in a really engaging way. She really sweeps you along in a way where you can't help but feel the same things that Myfanwy does, whether it be delighted amusement or exasperated horror at the situations she find herself in. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? Very much so. Any additional comments? This really was an unexpected book. I was expecting an urban fantasy with cool secret agent moments, complete with combat, explosions or the supernatural equivalent, and spying. Alright, you get all that, but the other half of the book is bureaucracy, paperwork and meetings. The story has a solid structure that delivers plot with interesting worldbuilding and character development, all done in an entertaining way.

The world as we know it is on the verge of destruction. There is no escape...or is there? The discovery and excavation of a 35,000 year old city hidden deep within the Transantarctic Mountains releases a pandemic across the globe. Within a few weeks, five million are dead and another 10 million are about to die. Billions more are certain to die within weeks. But what kind of disease only affects members of a certain ethnic group? Some world leaders are convinced this is a genetic bioweapon, developed and deployed against them for the sole purpose of ethnic cleansing. They convince their followers that enemy governments are behind this and join forces to go to war. The human race stands on the brink of extinction. The world has slipped into economic and political chaos, stock markets have crashed and shut down, and lawlessness is on the rise. Radical political and ethnic solutions are considered and implemented. Within a matter of days, the world will descend into open warfare, more than half of the entire world population will be annihilated on the battlefield of Armageddon. Nuclear warheads and long range missiles have been aimed, military forces have been mobilized...ready to march. There are those who want this to happen. Only a handful of people may be able to stop this catastrophe. Will they be able to do it? Will they be allowed to do it? Do they have enough time? Does anyone besides Sarah Rossler remember the dire warning of the 10th Cycle; that our cycle's final, civilization-ending catastrophe could be triggered by war? Genetic Bullets is a full-length novel, a stimulating medical thriller about genetic engineering human persistence and resolution in the face of destruction. This adventure is the sequel to Ninth Cycle Antarctica and takes listeners back into the mysteries of the Rossler Foundation. Members Reviews: Great The story is well written. It is easy to read and understand. The story keeps in line with previous villains in other books of the series. "I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review." Brilliant a good listen/read Brilliant story line, well developed series theme, with strong characters throughout. Storyline is believable world tensions & a possible ancient virus, Everything I've read by J.C Ryan is good. Narration is excellent. I received a free copy of this book at my request in exchange for an honest review. What a concept... A disease that kills everyone who gets sick is something that concerns everyone. To have one that only kills people with one genetic background spells a different type of disaster. I haven't read a book like this before and it's both horrifying and utterly captivating. Beautifully written the stress and distress felt by the characters comes through loud and clear. A fantastic story that should not be missed. The narration is good but not great. A times it's hard to tell who is talking and there are mistakes that aren't edited out, while these were all small there were a couple dozen of them.

Title: Deep Storm Author: Lincoln Child Narrator: Scott Brick Format: Abridged Length: 7 hrs and 51 mins Language: English Release date: 01-09-07 Publisher: Random House Audio Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 63 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Sworn to secrecy, Dr. Crane descends to Deep Storm. A year earlier, he is told, routine drilling uncovered the remains of mankind's most sophisticated ancient civilization - the legendary Atlantis. But now that the site is being excavated, a series of disturbing illnesses has begun to affect the operation. As Crane is indoctrinated into the strange world of Deep Storm and commences his investigation, he begins to suspect that the covert facility conceals something more complicated than a medical mystery. The discovery of Atlantis might, in fact, be a cover for something far more sinister...and deadly. Critic Reviews: "Child delivers a well-crafted and literate science-fiction thriller." (Publishers Weekly) "The story is imaginative and filled with wonder. Lovers of deep-sea adventure (and in particular fans of the James Cameron movie The Abyss or Michael Crichton's novel Sphere) will want to plunge into this one. (Booklist) Members Reviews: Excellent and Suspenseful Deep Storm has a great story line that keeps your attention through the entire book. It is a deep-sea adventure/mystery with twists and turns all around. Lincoln Child's descriptive story line keeps your mind visualizing the setting and wishing you were there to explore with the characters. What a ride This book has it all, mystery, action, science fiction. I listen to books in the car and this one had me sitting in parking lots trying to find a good place to pause. But I found my self just having to stop as this book unfolds in a way that will cause you to enjoy every minute of it. A new author to me. First time I've listened to this author's book and completely enjoyed it, if you like mystery and a little science thrown in you'll enjoy this as well. Well written. A bit unbelievable but well written. Not his best... I love the author and Scott Brick is a flawless reader but this book reads like an abridgement even though it isn't. It felt like the proverbial 'you know what' hit the fan far too quickly. I love the way the author writes and would have been very happy with more build up to the denouement.

It left the skilled cardiologist with an addiction to prescription painkillers that eventually cost him his marriage and his license to practice medicine. But now, at 38, Brian's cleaned up his act, swallowed his pride, and is ready to start over. Yet how far is he willing to go to be a doctor? The prestigious Boston Heart Institute has offered Brian an opportunity to get back into scrubs...and participate in trials of an extraordinary new drug that could revolutionize medicine. Vasclear may have the power to reverse arteriosclerosis, the number one killer in the civilized world. In short, it offers the promise of a pharmaceutical fountain of youth. The initial results are so dazzling, Brian pushes to get his own father, who has a dangerous heart condition, accepted into the Vasclear study. But soon Brian is uneasy. Under close scrutiny because of his past, he knows that the last thing he can afford to do is make waves - and yet he finds himself compelled to ask questions that his superiors can't, or won't, answer: Why a respected colleague has disappeared...Why a patient who'd made startling progress has suddenly died... With billions of dollars at stake in the race to get FDA approval for the drug, Brian's meddling could destroy his career - and end his father's life. For as Dr. Brian Holbrook is beginning to suspect, at Boston Heart Institute, knowing too much is the quickest way to the morgue. Members Reviews: Miracle Cure Like other Palmer novels, I loved "Miracle Cure". Palmer has a great talent for carrying stories along smoothly, with plenty of suspense. A compelling story about a miracle cure for arteriosclerosis and big pharma corruption. The narrator did a great job, too. I liked "Fatal" a bit better, mainly because this audiobook was abridged. I felt as though a few important aspects of the stroy were omitted. But all in all, another great story by Palmer. good job I enjoyed this book. The narrator has a nice voice and the story has a good pace and good ending.

Surprisingly well written, and lots of twists and turns. Kept me riveted until the very last page. The characters were overall very engaging. One of them I thought was a little underdeveloped. But otherwise it was terrific. Perfect for folks like me who don't read many thrillers. Lots of fun and highly recommended! Can't put it down Once you start this book you can't put it down! It reads like an on-going, action packed movie! The book is told not by chapter but continuously as each person relates views, thoughts, regrets and evil. Just when you think the book is ending, hold on because the rapid paced ride continues! This book should be made into a movie. Each character is strong and vulnerable & the action throughout the book will keep you turning the pages even while your family begs for their dinner. Having lived in San Diego I really enjoyed the many local references. A medical thriller A medical thriller you don't want to miss. I'm looking forward to reading the next novel. Hope you enjoy this as much as I did. Four Stars Picked this for our local book club and really enjoyed it. Great for beach read or travel. Great book! If you like medical thrillers you will like this book. It keeps you on the edge of your seat to the very end!

Temporary Perfections: Guido Guerrieri Series, Book 4 Audiobook by Gianrico Carofiglio

Title: Temporary Perfections: Guido Guerrieri Series, Book 4 Author: Gianrico Carofiglio Narrator: Sean Barrett Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 20 mins Language: English Release date: 02-16-12 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 232 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Manuela, the daughter of a wealthy couple from Bari, disappeared without trace months before and the police have closed their investigation, to the parents' despair. Counsellor Guerrieri reluctantly takes on an unusual assignment: to seek new evidence to force the police to reopen the case. A job more suitable to a private detective but a job that leads him to Nadia, a former client, a fascinating woman with an ambiguous past and to the tempting Caterina, Manuela's best friend, exquisitely too young for the jaded Guerrieri... Members Reviews: Ciao, Guido - Last Book of the Series I have thoroughly enjoyed listening to this Italian legal mystery series. Yet, I would only recommend this 4 book series to listeners that love character driven stories. Because I love the character, Guido Guerrieri so much, I enjoy the numerous back stories and long dialogues. The first three books were explorations into the legal system of Italy. Guerrieri takes on impossible cases and resolves them intellectually and with lots of work. This final installment is not a legal story as Guerrieri has been hired by a fellow attorney on behalf of his wealthy clients to solve the year-long disappearance of their daughter, Manuela. The mystery is not hard to solve, but I didn't care because I got to know Guerrieri even better. These stories contain so much warmth and humor. Sean Barrett is the narrator throughout this series and does an excellent job. I hope there will soon be another book as the ending felt like this story could go on and on. A lawyer that you can like Temporary Perfections is the 4th book in the Guido Guerrieri Series by Gianrico Carofiglio. Guido is a criminal lawyer in Bari Italy. Bari is a coastal town on the Adriatic coast and it is really beautiful if you ever get a chance to travel there. I have listened to each of the books in the series and have come too really like Guido. He has his flaws, he is getting older, and these books are not action novels, but books about a man who cares about the law, about doing the right thing, and about his friends. He has a great sense of humor and sarcasm, and chooses to not take himself too seriously. If you enjoy legal books like those written by John Grisham, but would like a European flavor, consider this series. Gianrico Carafiglio brings to life living in Italy, the Italian criminal courts and the humanity of a decent man trying to do his best. I would recommend starting with the first book in the series, Involuntary Witness. This is the last book that has been translated to English but I am hoping that I casi dell'avvocato Guerrieri will come soon. Temptation meets the mid age Italian male profession Would you listen to Temporary Perfections: Guido Guerrieri Series, Book 4 again? Why? The narrator captures the essence of the Italian male attorney and the writing is flawless, with complexity of the lead character so yes! It's easy to listen to again. Who was your favorite character and why? Endlessly self reflective, the lead character feels tempted, knows he isn't always moral and gives in and never pretends he is moral. I find that interesting and rare. What does Sean Barrett bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? The level of awareness the lead character has about himself is really unusual.

Elixir Audiobook by Ted Galdi

Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/389/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Elixir Author: Ted Galdi Narrator: Roberto Scarlato Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 41 mins Language: English Release date: 12-29-14 Publisher: Ted Galdi Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 45 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: A teenage genius goes on a suspenseful adventure to cure his girlfriend of a mysterious disease. Protagonist Sean Malone's journey begins at 14. He has an IQ north of 200, a full-ride scholarship to the country's top technical university, and over a million bucks from a winning streak on Jeopardy. However, he wishes he could just be normal. His genius comes at a price. The US government manipulates him, using him as a codebreaker in pursuit of a drug lord and killing innocent people along the way. When he pushes back, the Department of Defense pushes harder, and Sean is forced to flee to Rome to build a new life under a new name, abandoning academics, and hiding his genius from everyone. He enjoys a quiet existence in secrecy the next few years. And at 18, falls in love. The calm shatters when his girlfriend, Natasha, falls critically ill. Her doctors have no idea how to control the disease before it overcomes her. His intellect is her only hope of survival. He knows nobody else can figure out the medical puzzle before her time runs out. Sean brazenly returns to the US, where he has to avoid the prying eye of the Department of Defense as he tries to piece together a cure. His problems intensify when he hacks into the servers of a multi-billion-dollar pharmaceutical company. And it finds out. He now has to evade the machinations of not just one, but two powerful institutions on US soil, all while figuring out the hardest medical problem on Earth, and finding a way to get back to Europe before it's too late for Natasha. Elixir is a story about identity, secrets, and above all, love. This best seller, author Ted Galdi's debut, is enjoyed by both young adults and adults. Its elements of government conspiracy, reminiscent of the Edward Snowden incident, probe the darkness that can loom over agencies like the NSA. While its take on the Ebola virus is a hopeful expression of how human ingenuity, if allowed to flourish, can make the world a safer and better place. Members Reviews: Interesting idea for a story This is a debut novel of Ted Galdi. It is a thriller that follows a teenage genius as he does battle against certain officials within the United States government and a shady pharmaceutical company. Life for Sean Malone is unusual. He is supposed to have an IQ of 250. He gained fame as an eleven year old by winning over a million dollars on Jeopardy. It was the mention of Jeopardy that caught my attention and made me decide to read the book. After I got the book I discovered it is classified as a YA Sci-Fi/Techno Thriller. Elixir is well written with an interesting premise but I needed to completely suspend my scientific knowledge to follow the story. The action is fast pace and believable. The characterization within the story is somewhat lacking, only Sean seemed real. Although I could see when the story was attempting to hook the reader, it didnt hook me. I was unable to forget everything I know about science to enjoy the story. I like to read an authors debut book and often I find another author to follow. Roberto Scarlato narrated the book. Good story. Ho hum reader. Reader was monotone on narration. Most characters were believable. Story was good, but drug in the middle. Mr. Galdi got carried away on the epilogue -- long enough for another book. I won't call it YA but might appeal more to the late teens / early twenties set -- esp.

Isolation Ward Audiobook by Joshua Spanogle

Title: Isolation Ward Author: Joshua Spanogle Narrator: Scott Brick Format: Unabridged Length: 16 hrs and 27 mins Language: English Release date: 03-20-06 Publisher: Books on Tape Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 284 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: In Baltimore's St. Raphael's Hospital, three newly admitted patients are among society's most helpless citizens: female residents of Baltimore's group homes for the mentally impaired, their bodies racked by a virus the likes of which no one at St. Raphael's has ever seen. Dr. Nathaniel McCormick is one of the first on the scene. A young investigator from the Centers for Disease Control, Nate is paid to explore the bizarre, the exotic, and the baffling, from superviruses to bioterrorism. But as soon as Nate begins to investigate the lives and habits of the victims, he knows something is terribly wrong. Using all his skills as a medical detective, Nate soon zeroes in on the "vector", the one person who had sexual contact with the first victims. And when that suspect is found murdered, Nate fears that the disease he's chasing may not be an act of nature, but of man. With his brash style angering his superiors and fellow investigators alike, Nate turns to an old colleague and former lover, Dr. Brooke Michaels, for help. Together the two investigators follow a twisting trail of clues to a discovery that is at once groundbreaking and unspeakable. And as a circle of treachery tightens around him, Nate is about to confront the most chilling revelation of all, and a past Nate himself has been trying to escape. At once a taut medical thriller and a riveting psychological portrait of a young doctor on the edge, Isolation Ward is a tale of runaway tension, with a brilliant "what-if" premise that is harrowing, heartbreaking, and impossible to wrench from your imagination. Critic Reviews: "[A] tightly woven debut thriller....Engrossing and intellectually wrought." (Kirkus Reviews) "Spanogle is a funny, smart, and skilled writer at the beginning of what readers will hope is a long and prolific career." (Publishers Weekly) "Combines a wonderfully flawed yet stereotypically smart-ass hero with a plot that moves as rapidly as a lethal virus." (Entertainment Weekly) Members Reviews: Best Medical thriller I have listened to Would you listen to Isolation Ward again? Why? This book was absolutely one of the best medical thrillers I have ever read/listened to. Yes I would read it again. The characters were well fleshed out and the plot kept me guessing until the end with a double conflict going on. Even guessing "who done it" only gives the reader 1/2 of the conclusion. What other book might you compare Isolation Ward to and why? This is on the same order as the Surgeon or the Apprentice by Tess Gerritson. What does Scott Brick bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? I think Scott Brick is a fantastic narrator. He brings so much to the characters he reads. His sarcasm and inflections would make any book a great listen. Any additional comments? I have purchased Joshua Spanogle"s next book Flawless, I wish he would write more books. This is an author I would love to read more. Just shoot me If there is a medical thriller cliche missing from this book, I would be quite surprised. I kept telling myself that there must be something original to it, some redeeming twist, and so I listened and listened for h-o-u-r-s in hapless anticipation until my brain began to gel. I can't believe I blew 2 book credits on this turkey.

Title: Seizure Author: Robin Cook Narrator: Dylan Baker Format: Abridged Length: 6 hrs and 31 mins Language: English Release date: 05-06-05 Publisher: Penguin Audio Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 58 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: The two seemingly opposite personalities clash during the senate hearings, but the men have a common desire. Butler's hunger for political power far outstrips his concern for the unborn; and Lowell's pursuit of gargantuan personal wealth and celebrity overrides any considerations for patients' well-being. Further complicating the proceedings is the confidential news that Senator Butler has developed Parkinson's disease, leading the senator and the researcher into a Faustian pact. In a perilous attempt to prematurely harness Lowell's new technology, the therapy leaves the senator with the horrifying effects of temporal lobe epilepsy, seizures of the most bizarre order. Torn from the headlines, Seizure is a cautionary tale for a time where biotechnology pulls us into a promising yet frightening new world. Critic Reviews: "Dylan Baker performs this story of deceit, self-betrayal, and medical ethics with aplomb, focusing especially on character development as the conspiracy unfolds." (AudioFile) "Cook is at his best when focusing on fascinating, cutting-edge biotechnology procedures." (Booklist) Members Reviews: BORING!! Maybe it's because I am female, maybe because I have a medical background but I was profoundly dissapointed with this book. The characters are predictable and cardboard, especially the female lead. Once again we are treated to a woman with a supposed higher intellect (a PhD)who has no common sense, and who behaves throughout most of the book like a bimbo. Sound familiar? Remember the character Laura Dern played in Jurassic Park?..ditto. The medical scenerio was difficult to swallow, in that it was poorly contrived and not too well written. The former "Dr" Cook needs to stay away from this area as he has been out of the profession since the 1970's and it shows. The ending was laughable! Don't waste your money here! There are many other writers in mystery and thrillers who are far better than this... disappointed I was so disappointed with the ending in this book! It felt like Mr. Cook got tired of writing and just picked some kind of ending to get this project over with. I think this book had SO much potential and Mr. Cook didn't really take advantage of that. The whole aspect of using that particular blood sample had a lot more implications he could have used toward the end and with a better ending. I liked it until the end. I even gave it a good rating BEFORE I had finished the book. I have since changed my rating. I really wanted to like this book. I could have put up with the poorly developed female character with a better ending. Poor Story Line Would you try another book from Robin Cook and/or Dylan Baker? Although Robin Cook can write decent books, this one is laughable. Don't waste your time or money on this. Least Favorite The recording had random sound effects every so often that were ridiculous and distracting. I'd say the same about the stereotyped characters. The story line was not fleshed out. This is my least favorite Cook book.

Chief resident Steve Mitchell is the quintessential surgeon: ambitious, intelligent, confident. Charged with molding a group of medical trainees into doctors, and in line for a coveted job, Steve's future is bright. But then a patient mysteriously dies, and it quickly becomes clear that a killer is on the loose in his hospital. A killer set on playing a deadly game with Steve. A killer holding information that could ruin his career and marriage. Now, alone and under a cloud of suspicion, Steve must discover a way to outsmart his opponent and save the killer's next victim before the cycle repeats itself again and again. A chilling and compelling thriller that also takes you into the hospital and details the politics and hierarchy among doctors, as well as the life-and-death decisions that are made by flawed human beings, Kelly Parsons' Doing Harm marks the gripping debut of a major fiction career. Members Reviews: Unbelievable First Novel--Not in a Good Way The author of this medical mystery is an actual board-certified urologist . As a result of his background, the medical procedures are all very graphic and realistic, and hospital protocol probably exactly what you would expect. The plot isn't a completely new idea, and the writing style is much like Robin Cook or Michael Palmer. There are some good tense moments of suspense which could have really built up as the story progressed- unfortunately, it takes a big fall. I never liked or cared about what happened to our main character, as he was made out to be a thick-headed, arrogant, and weak individual. I love medical thrillers, and am willing to suspend some realism, however could not get past how our main character becomes immature and ridiculous when faced with his situation. He is supposed to be self-assured, intelligent, smart, an extremely quick learner, and admired by all who know him. It doesn't follow that we should believe the decisions he makes. ******************************Big Spoiler Alert Follows********************************************** Chief Resident Steve Mitchell, is on track to take on a big job at University Hospital. When his patients begin to die, his glowing reputation quickly declines, and instead of being promoted, he may lose his job. There are a lot of ways to die in a hospital- natural causes from the original injury or accident, infection, doctor error, etc. Although his patient's deaths are seemingly the result of something that was likely unavoidable, the real reason is---gasp!--- murder. This "smart" Chief Resident is finally made aware of who the murderer is, and is being blackmailed by this person due to another matter which could ruin his career. The murderer makes him aware that more deaths will occur, and here is where the unbelievable part starts----he decides to just stay silent to avoid losing his marriage and job!!----- He does take some lame steps to try and figure out what to do by telling a co-worker about what is going on. As the storyline becomes more bizarre, the co-worker simply believes his story (no proof required) and says he will figure out what to do.

And the death opens a door into the past, exposing a mystery that has lain dormant for centuries...a mystery Gamache must solve if he's to catch a present-day killer. Members Reviews: Not bad A good story. However, I found this a tad dragged out and boring. I had to force my way to the end and thought maybe I am just not a Louise Penny fan. I picked it based on ratings. Not sure if I will try another. Best one yet. I'm listening to the books in order, and this is definitely the best one to date. An excellent story, familiar characters and beautifully narrated. Who is this about? Gradually draws you into this multi layered story leaving you with a challenging "ending" and... Disappointing I have listened to all of the previous books and loved them, however this one was lacking. The end felt rushed and just didn't seem to tie everything up - so much just didn't really make sense, and so many question raised but left unanswered. There were also a lot of parts of this that were a bit pointless and just seemed to be there to take up time. A real disappointment compared to the earlier books in the series, but it hasn't put me off listening to the rest of the series. A shame. The brutal telling Couldn't stop listening. Facinating, exiting and adorable story about Three Pines inhabitants .Loved all about it.

Plunged into an underworld of illegal immigrant communities, they discover that the murdered girl's studies at a London College may have threatened to reveal things that some people will go to any lengths to keep secret.... Unflinching, inventive, and intelligent, A Dark Redemption explores a sinister case that will force DI Carrigan to face up to his past and DS Miller to confront what path she wants her future to follow. Members Reviews: Over-narrated The story is really good and David Thorpe, the narrator is good until he makes up different voices. Unlike, say, brilliant narrators such as Simon Prebble or Simon Vance or George Guidall, David Thorpe is really bad at doing voices. He should stick to his own voice, which is rather good and stop trying to modify it. It's so bad that it really gets in the way of the story, and that's sad because there is nothing wrong with just reading with one's own voice. A thoughtful story This book is not just another detective story it reflects on the horrors of war and the impact it has on those who get caught up in it. It is very emotive and the story builds nicely till its climate. A good plot. First book by this author, it will not be the last. If you are a fan of Jo Nesbo then give this a try. great plot will be looking more soon really enjoyed this book and happy to have come across another author as good as Val Mcdermid and Peter James New writer for me - very enjoyable Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? Yes - gripping complex story What did you like best about this story? Kept me interested in knowing what was going to happen next

Carbone Narrator: Nick Santa Maria Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 20 mins Language: English Release date: 02-26-15 Publisher: RadioArchives.com Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 21 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: In medical ethics, the line between right and wrong is often blurred. Who is to decide what is for the good of humanity? Changing the world. One person at a time... That is the mission statement of Tethys Hospital, run by Dr. Bill Gilchrist and his deformed sister, Abra. VG723, their revolutionary stem-cell-based therapy, appears to be capable of doing just that for the cancer patients who come to Tethys. VG723 is often their last hope. But if they match the protocol, they're virtually guaranteed a cure. Dr. Sheila Takamura, a young, dedicated oncologist, is proud to be involved in the clinical trials. Once the FDA approves it for widespread use, VG723 will revolutionize cancer therapy. That is why she's alarmed when former patients return with bizarre syndromes. Yes, they're cancer free, but they're experiencing dramatic changes in their hair and skin and general appearance. When she investigates a possible link to the protocol, those patients start dying. As the body count grows, Sheila finds her own life in danger. She comes to suspect there might be a literal meaning behind the Tethys motto - but can she learn the truth in time to save herself and millions of others? Critic Reviews: "Paul Wilson and Tracy Carbone have penned a winner. The suspense is razor sharp and the characters masterfully drawn. Paul Wilson is at the top of the game, and Tracy Carbone is a welcome addition to the genre. You'll love The Proteus Cure." (Michael Palmer, NY Times best-selling author of Political Suicide) Members Reviews: Solid fast-paced sci-fi drama Repairman Jack style action in a more technical, medical setting. More plausible to have DNA therapies gone awry than the a-bit-too-out-there Otherness. Loved it. I especially love how though there's definitely a bias to the wrongs of the villains' goals, the possible good was mentioned til the end. Really makes you think. Poor The story is weak and narration is horrible. Be forewarned and check your local library before using a credit on this one.

Despite Elena's advice, the wife refuses to take legal action against her abusive husband. David is so frustrated that he loudly and publicly voices his desire to beat the man senseless. When someone actually kills the husband in that fashion, David's offhand expression leads him to the sheriff's office. As the situation worsens, the two doctors form a partnership with a new attorney in town in order to fight a murder charge. Members Reviews: Rx Murder Any additional comments? The author keeps the reader guessing. The story is fast moving, . With a fast pace, lots of suspense, and a touch of romance, the author takes the reader on an interesting search to find the real murderer. Full of suspense A Quick Listen, But A Quality Listen This is a short novella that packs in spousal abuse, murder, numerous characters to pick from, a great deal of suspense and a few plot twists while we, the reader/listener, go about trying to figure out who done it. The story has a fast pace to it and narrator Meghan Kelly does a great job. She gives us distinctively different voices for the various characters as she brings author Richard Mabrys story to life. The bottom line is Rx Murder is definitely worth your time if you like a good who done it. Finally, this audio book was provided by the narrator at no cost in exchange for an honest review, courtesy of Audio Book Blast. Will the real murderer please stand up! With Rx Murder, Richard Mabry has given readers a taste of his expertise in writing suspense stories. The novella keeps the pages turning (or in the case of an audible copy, the listening app rolling!) The author does a good job of the emotional subject of spousal abuse and the issues that surround it. Twists and turns to the plot, evocative characters and a surprise murderer are good reasons to pick up this book! Meghan Kelly does a great job of narration, making listening to the book an enjoyable experience. I was given an audio edition of the book by the author in exchange for an honest review. Quick listen but worth it Any additional comments? I'm not sure how the author was able to pack a complex mystery into a short novel but that he did. It was a whodunnit from the beginning with an interesting story line and enough characters (and potential culprits) to keep you guessing. I didn't see the ending (love it when that happens) but I would have liked a bit more build up to the reveal. Still, an overall good story with very good narration. RX Murder This was a very intriguing murder/mystery. You feel such compassion for the wife, and wonder why anyone even cares why the abusive husband died. And the end really has you wondering. Really fun short story.

Two of Petros's other children, both physicians, battle Thea and their eccentric brother, Dimitri, by demanding that treatment for their father be withheld. Meanwhile, Petros lingers in the Beaumont Clinic's intensive care unit, where Thea is his only advocate. As Thea uncovers the facts surrounding the disaster, it seems more and more to be no accident. Petros himself is the only witness. Who would want him dead? The answers are trapped in his brain...until he looks at Thea and begins to slowly blink a terrifying message. In The Second Opinion, Michael Palmer has created a cat-and-mouse game where one woman must confront a conspiracy of doctors to uncover an evil practice that touches every single person who ever has a medical test. With unforgettable characters and twists and betrayals that come from the most unlikely places, The Second Opinion will keep you guessing...and looking over your shoulder. Members Reviews: great story line; unnecessary love affair I liked the story line and underlying theme. Great suspense and drama, integrated with interesting medical and technical backdrop. But the whole thing was spoiled because of the totally unnecessary, woefully predictable, and wholly gratuitous love affair, between the intellient and wealthy protagonist and bumbling "hunk type" security guard. The "Sappy" love affair sticks out, and distracts from the interest and intrigue otherwise generated by the otherwise intreguing substance underlying the story line. Excellent story Excellent portrayal of two characters dealing with Aspergers syndrome. The story was not about their Aspergers per se, but instead the Aspergers made for fascinating characters in a medical mystery. I do have a medical background, but you don't have to be a medical person to follow the story, although the more you know, the more passionate you may feel about the storyline. Palmer explains everything in layman's terms so nothing is lost. His topics are generally hot buttons in the medical world, often on the injustices of insurance or medical politics. My imagination is a lot like Michael Palmer so I love his books. The narrator was great. I didn't feel like he was reading and there was a lot of expression in his voice. I highly recommend this book. Fun, interesting, suspenseful, page turner. :) review of narrator I thoroughly enjoyed the book. The book was so good that the somewhat irritating voice and accents of the narrator failed to dim my enjoyment. I would have much preferred another "voice". A caricature of a detective novel Very very very formulaic. But the premise of a detective hero with Aspergers is very interesting. Done much more effectively, however, in "The curious incident of the dog in the night." I kept hoping that the plot twists would be more than the inevitable, but alas they followed the googlemap route to a conclusion: Interstate whenever possible, no interesting diversions as that would add travel time and reduce gas mileage.

He has everything a man could want, but has lost the only thing he ever needed... Fighting his way to the top, Cole Hunter has built the successful architectural firm he dreamed of all his life. But after a recent brush with death, Cole realizes what really matters to him and shifts his priorities. He is furious with the woman he loves for abandoning him, and he is willing to give up everything - his company, his friends, his fame - just to give her a taste of her own medicine. But his revenge has unexpected consequences... A life-threatening journey into the Nevada desert holds many discoveries for Sophie, including an emotional reunion. At 27, she is given the opportunity to meet her biological family for the first time. But an innocent woman has been killed by the same monster who shot her brother, and she feels compelled to help bring her justice. For the first time, Sophie is feeling torn between her separate lives, but when an old enemy gets dangerously close to finding her, no identity or location might be safe any longer... Members Reviews: Nail-biting Good I was real eager to devour this book after having read the last one. It was a smooth read, taking only about eight hours before I was out of book again and wondering when the next one was going to come out. While recaps of the "other side" of the last book could have made it start out slow, that route was not taken by the author who starts us off with a healthy dose of poison and bullets to the face in just first few chapters. If you're into mysteries and have been trying guess "whodunnit" since the last book, you're going to be in for a big (but completely believable) surprise. I guessed wrong, and I'm not even mad. ::Spoilers Below:: There is a little bit of a "recap" phase in the beginning, covering the time period that the last book took place over. You find out that Cole had been both shot and poisoned before faking his own death, as well as several other factors that encouraged him to take that path. The calm period of relaxation he experiences out on his own feels tense, because you know everything that Sophie is going through during that exact same period, and it's good to see that he feels appropriately guilty once he finds out he's responsible for that. Their time alone makes up a good portion of the story, and combined with the same style of flashbacks as the first book manages to make two (well, three?) people hiding out in the desert a very compelling read. Somehow, an almost Arthurian Quest is dumped on them in the middle of it all, and it manages not to seem out of place. There's a (frustrating) dose of sexual tension in this book that never quite resolves itself, because there's so many other plot points that keep dousing the heroes like a cold shower. Their idyllic sabbatical from reality is broken when Sophie's boss shows up with information that galvanizes them to return; there are murderers and would-be-assassins that need to be brought to justice. The time between them coming back to LA and the time they actually confront the bad guys seems fast; not like it's lazy, but like some bigger bad guy might have been sacrificing pawns.

But the past has a way of echoing down the years and finding its way into the present. When Special Agent Ren Bryce discovers the body of a young woman in an abandoned car, solving the case becomes personal. But the more she uncovers about the victim's last movements, the more questions are raised. Why was Laura Flynn driving towards a ranch for troubled teens in the middle of Colorado when her employers thought she was hundreds of miles away? And what did she know about a case from fifty years ago, which her death dramatically reopens? As Ren and cold case investigator Janine Hooks slowly weave the threads together, a picture emerges of a privileged family determined to hide some very dark secrets - whatever the cost. Members Reviews: This narrator gets kudos!! I throughly enjoyed this book. The author has hit it out the ball park. The bipolar FBI agent is off the hook! I loved her thoughts. I laughed out loud so many times. There is a tremendous amount of characters and the narrator did them all well. I commend her because she performed them all well. The mental health issue is nicely done and is not a character of its own. Overall, the book is well written and well narrated. mstiff2u! OK mystery; IRRITATING narrator This narrator has a heavy Southern or Southie or something accent that breaks through much too frequentlybut not consistently, so the variations in pronunciation are numerous and distracting. For instance, she refers to a couch as a sofa in one sentence and a "sofer" in the next. The name Connor comes out "Cah-nah," but only sometimes. And I'm still unsure whether another character is named Ellena, Helena, or Eleanor. The narrator also seems to have some kind of sinus condition/congestion that made my head throb when I listened to it. Or maybe that was an attempt at characterization she resorted to because of limited vocal range. Tough to say. Recommendation: Read this book in print.

An invisible killer has returned. The last time it raged, upward of 40 million died - in a matter of months. Now it is back, released to prey on an unsuspecting, unprotected world. The first case appears on a flawless spring morning, initially diagnosed as a common cold - perhaps a mild flu. Then the deaths begin. New York and Florida are quarantined. International travel is halted. A Japanese doomsday cult commits mass suicide, its final mission completed. Beck Casey, an expert on biological warfare, is called back to his former CIA post to unravel the twisted case... and to discover if a vaccine exists. But Casey's potential allies to save the future are the worst enemies from his past. The Final Epidemic has begun. Members Reviews: A Great Listen! If you could sum up Final Epidemic in three words, what would they be? Non-Stop Twists Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How? Yes. The cause of the epidemic seemed easy to figure out but who released it was a complete surprise. With all of the twists, you never knew who was going to die next and in a thriller this is always a plus. Which scene was your favorite? When they find Beck's daughter and friend and are able to save them. Good Suspense - Holds Your Attention. This is not a new storyline but it is well written and has intriguing characters. I bought the Kindle book and got the audio book for $1.99. That is a great way to hear a new series by an author I had not read before. Beck Casey caught my attention and I am starting the next book. Narrator was good too. Terrible Book! What disappointed you about Final Epidemic? Just horribly boring! I could not even stay interested long enough to get to the main story! I have never felt that way about a book! What was most disappointing about Earl Merkels story? The unnecessary background and chit chat that had nothing to do with the story so boring it put me to sleep! How did the narrator detract from the book? I did not like his personality or the way he portrayed the characters. Maybe it was just the book or writing itself. If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Final Epidemic? Just all the unnecessary endless descriptions of the characters thoughts that had nothing to do with the story so I could not finish the book. Any additional comments? Total waste of a credit and my money!

Brilliant psychiatric resident Dr. Kim Patterson has one major flaw: She is too committed to her patients. Her willingness to break the rules and use unconventional methods to help her patients heal has already gotten her thrown out of several hospitals. And when Scarlett Hascall is brought into the psychiatric ward, Kim can't resist getting involved, even if it means breaking protocol - because Kim can see what the other doctors cannot. Scarlett is suffering from a rare condition: dissociative identity disorder, otherwise known as multiple personalities. But even Kim is at a loss when she realizes that some of Scarlett's alternate identities are claiming to be people who have gone missing from their town. And when Scarlett's alter identity "Izzi" knows way too much about the whereabouts of the missing Isabel Wilcox, the police begin to suspect that Scarlett may have been involved with Isabel's disappearance. Only Kim defends Scarlett, certain of the girl's innocence. But her new theory is a radical one, one she can hardly believe herself: What if Kim is channeling the troubled souls of these victims? With the help of local police officer Zack Trainor, Kim digs further into Isabel's case, trying to find proof that Scarlett wasn't involved. The more they discover, the more it becomes apparent that something strange and frightening is going on with Scarlett. Is it possible she is truly harboring lost souls? Or is Scarlett playing a twisted game with her doctors and the police? Members Reviews: Prepare to turn some pages If you like thrillers, you have come to the right place.

Title: The Bird That Did Not Sing Subtitle: A DCI Lorimer novel Author: Alex Gray Narrator: Joe Dunlop Format: Unabridged Length: 12 hrs and 50 mins Language: English Release date: 03-13-14 Publisher: Hachette Audio UK Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 50 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: 2014: The Commonwealth Games are coming to Glasgow and security is extra tight, particularly after a mysterious bomb explodes in nearby rural Stirlingshire. As the opening ceremony for the Games draws ever closer, the police desperately seek the culprits. But Detective Superintendent Lorimer has other concerns on his mind. One is a beautiful red-haired woman from his past whose husband dies suddenly on his watch. Then there is the body of a young woman found dumped in countryside just south of the city who is proving impossible to identify. Elsewhere in Glasgow people prepare for the events in their own way, whether for financial gain or to welcome home visitors from overseas. And, hiding behind false identities, are those who pose a terrible threat not just to the Games but to the very fabric of society. Alex Gray's stunning new Lorimer novel, set against the backdrop of the Glasgow Commonwealth Games, brings the vibrant city to life in a race to stop the greatest threat the city has ever known. Members Reviews: excellent writing However, the story wasn't as strong as the others. I have read each book available on audible in the series and and wait patiently for more. The publishers summary is right on the button without giving the story away. Solidly good police procedural! This book turned out to be a very good listen, but alas, Audible only has a couple more of the books in a much longer series. There are at least half a dozen missing. I, for one, hope they will be added. Chose to listen to this despite it was well into the series (something that often feels risky). I believe there was enough of the back stories of the on-going characters to make it feel like one hasn't just stepped into the middle of confusing people and plot lines. It works well as a stand-alone, even though it's the most recent in the series. There are several plots that interweave the story, and the point of view changes from time to time to give alternate perspectives and clarify the story. It begins with a threat to the safety of the Comonwealth Games, due to occur some months in the future, but broadens to include a sadder thread dealing with human trafficking, and a personal interest where DCI Lorimer's old girlfriend enters the picture and puts pressure on his marriage as she turns to Lorimer when her husband mysteriously dies. Although they seem disparate threads, they do come together in the end. I like what I could gather about DCI Lorimer. He seems a decent sort, with a supportive wife, and a man who has a good working relationship with his colleagues. Joe Dunlop's narration was quite good actually. I felt when I got this I might be taking a chance, since only a couple of the earlier episodes are available, so is not possible to start at the beginning. But this turned out to be a pleasant surprise, and I look forward to going back and learning the history of how Lorimer got to this point. Recommend! Slow and tedious What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? The narrator was slow and somber, maybe if he had been a little more animated, and had given each character some personality. The story is told in first person for every character, so it gets a little difficult to follow, as the many points of view grew.

When a brutally murdered teenager is discovered in the woods surrounding a small Ohio town, Dr. Ben Stevenson - the town's medical examiner - must decide if he's willing to put his family's life in danger to uncover the truth. Finding himself pulled deeper into an investigation with devastating consequences, he discovers shocking information that will shatter his quiet community and force him to confront a haunting truth. With its eerie portrait of suburban life and nerve-fraying plot twists, The Absence of Mercy is domestic drama at its best for fans of Harlan Coben, Laura Lippman, Jennifer McMahon, and Lisa Gardner. Members Reviews: Great story; in desperate need of editing There's good news and bad news. The good news is really, really good. Burley has developed a compelling narrative--a horrific mutilation murder occurs in a tiny town south of Pittsburgh. Then a second attack...but the victim lives. Told through the eyes of the Coroner, the story follows the law enforcement officers as they desperately seek the gruesome serial killer before he strikes again. I loved the story, the tension, and the frustration of the investigators, as every clue leads to a dead end. Definitely a page turner. The bad news is that Burley vastly over uses metaphors and cutesy descriptive phrases. Someone should have gone through and ruthlessly cut them out. A couple would have been okay, but there were enough that I found it annoying. Where are the clothes?!?!? I loved the book while reading it, and finished it in one day. Then reality hit. I hated the ending; could have been so much more. The wife was ridiculous! She knew she was raising a psychopath from a very early age, and said nothing to her husband!! She allowed him to torture animals and escalate, and did nothing. I can't deal with such a stupid plot line. But the most ridiculous thing - which no one mentioned in their reviews - what did he do with the bloody clothes?!? He committed at least two murders in daylight, and what? Walked home covered in blood and gore? There was no mention at all about bloody clothes, or him covered in blood. How did he dispose of all his clothes and shoes, and remove all traces of his crimes from his body? Even something as small as blood under fingernails is hard to remove. I went from loving the book to disliking it in the space of a few minutes, as soon as common sense took over!! Quick read but just ok After reading some of the glowing reviews -- have to wonder if we were all reading the same book! I thought that "Absence of Mercy" was just ok --- I actually liked the 2nd half of the book better than the 1st half -- more suspenseful and more of a page turner. Overall the book was lacking in depth and real character development. Didn't really feel engaged with anyone in the book. The book could have used a better editor or proofreader -- I have to admit that I was put off in the first chapter when the Dr. mentions attending his son's baseball game in the middle of the chapter and then at the end of the chapter talks about his son's wrestling meet -- I can't believe that wasn't caught.

Title: Thirteen Steps Down Author: Ruth Rendell Narrator: Ric Jerrom Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 12 mins Language: English Release date: 09-11-12 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 24 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Mix Cellini (which he pronounces with an S rather than a C) is superstitious about the number 13 and has always felt dogged by ill-luck. In the house where he lives, there are 13 steps down to the landing below his rooms. His landlady lives her life almost exclusively through her library, blind to the neglect and decay around her. However, Mix is obsessed with the life of the notorious John Christie, who lived in the same Notting Hill neighbourhood at 10 Rillington Place. He is also infatuated with a beautiful woman who lives near-by, a model who wouldnt look twice at him. Both landlady and lodger are caught up in their own psychologically twisted parallel worlds. But when reality intrudes into Mix's life, a long pent-up violence explodes. Members Reviews: As always, Rendell writes a very engaging yarn! Her stories are addictive, with very human tho creepy characters. Loved the old ladies in this one and their dialogue. Fantastic reader too! If you like a bit of suspense with sharply drawn characters and unexpected twists you will enjoy this. M wow, this was a disappointment This is the first Ruth Rendell novels I have "read", but I love the several Barbara Vine novels that I have listened to through Audible........I find it hard to believe that they're written by the same person. This book is repetitive: the reader is subjected to repeated, almost identical descriptions of how badly kept the house is and the extent of the disrepair. This book is static: the characters don't change, they keep saying and doing the same things over and over again, and the plot moves at a snail's pace. The book is derivative: there are no surprises in what happens, there's no undiscovered thoughts or motivations, and the only "surprise" about the ghost is pretty unbelievable and kind of fizzles in the end. Added to that is the lackluster narration, which is occasionally cliched and occasionally undifferentiated (between characters and times). A disappointment for this Barbara VIne fan. Thirteen Steps Down Really enjoyed this, even if the beginning didn't immediately pull me in and the end a little rushed but delightfully ironic Dull Didn't finish this book and returned it. Didn't mind the concept of the story but found it very dull. Thirteen Steps Down This novel, in which exercise machine engineer, Mix Cellini becomes obsessed with a local model, Nerissa Nash. He lives in a large dilapidated house in Notting Hill owned by the elderly bluestocking curmogen, Gwendolyn Chawcher. This being Rendell, Mix's intense interest in local serial killer Reginald Christie (of 10 Rillington Place fame) begins to take over his whole existence. I suppose that the sheer output of Rendell must have made her repeat a few characters along the way. Also, many of her third person psychopaths began to gel into one character. This novel in particular, reminded me very much of the plot and characterisation of 'Going Wrong'. That said, it's classic Rendell, so lie back and enjoy. As ever, the versatile vocal talents of the narrator, Ric Jerrom, are an aural treat.

But when Tempe stumbles upon a fresh skeleton among the ancient bones, her old friend Emma Rousseau, the local coroner, persuades Tempe to stay on and help with the investigation. When Emma reveals a disturbing secret, it becomes more important than ever for Tempe to help her friend close the case. The body count begins to climb. Tempe follows the trail to a free street clinic with a belligerent staff, a suspicious doctor, and a donor who is a charismatic televangelist. Clues abound in the most unlikely places as Tempe uses her unique knowledge and skills to build her case, even as the local sheriff remains dubious and her own life is threatened. Critic Reviews: "This novel confirms the series' place in the front rank of the ever-expanding forensic thriller subgenre." (Publishers Weekly) Members Reviews: Good story, not so good reading I have read or listened to all of Kathy Reichs books and I enjoy the TV show "Bones". This was a great story , but the reader's voice was a mis-match. She was doing (or actually had) a soft southern drawl. Sometimes her words ran together and sometimes her voice got too soft.

Moving to Charleston, South Carolina, she opens a unique private forensic pathology practice, one in which she and her colleagues, including Pete Marino and her niece, Lucy, offer expert crime-scene investigation and autopsy services to communities lacking local access to competent death investigation and modern technology. It seems like an ideal situation, until the new battles start: with local politicians, with entrenched interests, with someone whose covert attempts at sabotage are clearly meant to run her out of town. And that's before the murders and other violent deaths even begin. A 16-year-old tennis star, fresh from a tourament win in Charleston, is found nude and mutilated near Piazza Navona in Rome. The body of an abused young boy is discovered dumped in a desolate marsh. A woman is found ritualistically murdered in her multimillion-dollar beach home. Meanwhile, in distant New England, problems with a prominent patient at a Harvard-affiliated psychiatric hospital begin to hint at interconnections that are as hard to imagine as they are horrible. Scarpetta has dealt with many brutal and unusual crimes before, but never any as baffling, or as terrifying, as the ones confronting her now. Before she is through, that book of the dead will contain many names - and the pen may be poised to write in her own. Members Reviews: enjoyed always intrigued but felt a little dropped off at the end. Mary Stuart is an awesome narrator Awesome Classic Cornwall This is classic Scarpetta,,,,, can't wait for the next one!!!!

A local criminal-defense attorney has been bound and beaten to death. The victim was attending a convention for criminal-defense attorneys, which means the list of suspects could stretch a mile long. Two more bodies are found in quick succession, each killed in a similar manner, and the authorities know they have a serial killer on their hands. As Theresa searches for the threads that tie the cases together, she begins to fear that both she and her daughter are closer to danger than either of them realize. Critic Reviews: "There are many forensic experts. There are many writers. Rarely, however, do the two meld as seamlessly and synergistically as Lisa Black." ( Sacramento Book Review) "She is, quite simply, one of the best storytellers around." (Tess Gerritsen) Members Reviews: Best of her 3 books (so far) I enjoyed reading one of Lisa Black's earlier books in this series (her first book) and enjoyed listening to the second one. This one was much better than either of those, I thought. Narrator also does a good job with the various characters and the tone, etc. I'll be looking for her next book and with this narrator. good story & narration but ... I liked the story, set in Cleveland- which sounds like a much more interesting city than I imagined it to be- even worth a visit one day. I found the relationship between Theresa and her daughter Rachel believalbe- would like to learn more about her cousin Frank. What I found distracting was the "you have reached the end of the CD" messages- 1 in the 1st have and 2 in the 2nd half- not up the usual standards for audible books. Loved it The writer keeps you in suspense. I could not put it down. I also liked the narrator! She really expresses the authors intent.

Now her coffin returns home. With the Iraq War all but begun, the story coming from Baghdad is that the young woman orchestrated the very bomb attack that killed her. But a devastated Felix, doctor at South Berlin Hospital, cannot believe that Celine would willingly participate in such an act, and certain clues - as well as questioning from German, Iraqi, and American agencies - raise the good doctor's suspicions. A cryptic e-mail propels Felix to seek out the truth of what really happened to his lover. He discovers that part of the transported "humanitarian aid" was not actually humanitarian at all, leading him to believe that Celine's fateful mission bore a far more dangerous purposeand a far different outcome. And when the truth surfaces, Felix must fight for his life - or become another casualty of war. Members Reviews: Good Doctor Bravo Dr. Hoffman. You solved another one. One of the greatest tales of espionage and terrorism ever. You don't know all the details until the very end. Keeps you in suspense with a sense of urgency all the way. Read it you'll love it! Not so good. This was a tough book to read. Very dull and lacking action. I can live with that but the hero is so self deprecating it is almost annoying. Dr. Hoffman is always getting beat up and saved by unusual circumstances. It is annoying that he can not protect himself and get a few licks in to get some sort of victory. Someone else has to save his sorry ass. The author takes such liberties with the story. He leaves you in the lurch at the end of a chapter and the next chapter everything has worked itself out but the author does not tell you how it happened. You just have to get on with the story and hope the narrative gets better. The end of the story is as though it is an afterthought on the author's part. This is a series of Dr. Hoffman books. If the rest are like this, Mr. Spielberg will not be getting any more of my reading time any time soon. Great book An excellent read! The action was well paced and easy to follow. Dr. Hoffmann yet again finds himself in a difficult situation and manages to think his way out of it. Excellent! Having read one of the Dr. Hoffman books, I was hooked and now try to get them all. I love that the author includes the kind of politics that go on in the running of the hospital as a second plot line. His books are very interesting to me. I always enjoy Dr Hoffman's misadventures I always enjoy Dr Hoffman's misadventures, and the cast of characters from the hospital. But this story is very much out of date (published in Germany in 2003) but the plot was absolutely ridiculous. It was not remotely believable and the author seemed to be hard up for material and put this together from the headlines ten years ago. I hope the next one is better.

Its a life filled with medical work, televised soccer games, and the chill of German beer. And when a former patient shows up dead by causes unknown, curiosity and sheer medical devotion propel Hoffmann to investigate. But his autopsy order goes unfulfilled as the body is cremated and hospital records vanish. Soon, Hoffmann discovers a diagnosis of conspiratorial proportions, and he must risk everything to save not only himself but the hospital hes always loved. Members Reviews: Gem of a Thriller I was blown over by the quality of the writing, and the delivery by Michael Page. This is a quirky thriller read in a personal way that draws the listener into the story from beginning to end. Highly recommended. Bit of an anticlimax really. I was expecting more after reading the reviews of this book. I wouldn't say it's not worth a listen but there's better out there.

Out of Darkness Audiobook by Lawrence W. Gold, M.D.

Gold, M.D. Narrator: Leigh Townes Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 23 mins Language: English Release date: 10-03-17 Publisher: Grass Valley Publishing Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Despite the subject matter, this is an inspirational novel. It's is a fantastic opportunity for a talented actor. Out of Darkness deals with the abhorrent problem of human trafficking, the fastest growing criminal enterprise in the 21st century, ranking second after drug smuggling. There are more young American girls entering the commercial sex industry; an estimated 300,000 at this moment; and their ages have been dropping drastically; the average starting age is an alarming 13. Out of Darkness follows Cynthia Lange from despair; her mother selling her into sexual slavery, to her rescue by the FBI, and her difficult transition to prominent physician at Brier Hospital in Berkeley, California. While she had escaped from the life; she can't rid herself from its aftereffects. She deals bravely with them and begins a new life. While the FBI created legend obscures her past, circumstances threaten to reveal the truth and destroy all she had worked so hard to create. We discover in this novel that the human spirit can triumph over evil. Members Reviews: Dr. Gold Tackles a Difficult Issue and Strikes a Chordâ Iâve been a fan of Dr. Goldâs novels for several years, and have read most of his Brier Hospital series (Iâm getting there!) I said this a while agoâheâs up there in Robin Cookâs league. Although Dr. Gold is retired from the medical profession, he will always be a doctor at heart, as well as a gifted storyteller, so the nonmedical reader can understand what goes on behind the scenes that we never see or hear about. With OUT OF DARKNESS, he tackles a serious and heartbreaking issue, makes us understand the horror and gravity of it, and at the same time, we can actually enjoy reading this story (no, you donât have to consider it a guilty pleasure), because Dr. Gold makes it entertaining as well as informative. Dr. Cynthia Lange is the heroine, and her colleagues at Brier Hospital urge her to run for staff presidency, but sheâs reluctant, for several reasons. We see all the sexism and misogyny that no doubt exists even today (Iâm sure Dr. Gold didnât have to delve into imagination to create this realism) as someone tries to block her. Then we learn about Dr. Langeâs pastâshe was a trafficking victim from early childhood to age 13 at the Rabbit Ranch. We relive her journey and see her emerge as a successful compassionate woman willing to help other victims. We meet other victims along the way, and although the subject matter is disturbing, I assure you Dr. Gold gives us a happy ending. I urge everyone to read this novel to learn about this heinous practice, to become aware that this still exists in the 21st century, and why is our government turning a blind eye to it? Verified Purchase Above excellent medical and legal mystery drama Many topics are covered including hospital staff frictions, life and death decisions and hospital dynamics. Terrific character portrayals and ongoing suspense as well as surprises make this book hard to put down. It describes how a young girl was able to escape a horrible dysfunctional background and somewhat overcome the numerous residual traumatic memories. Relationships between men and women are thoroughly explored. Even after finishing it, the plot remained in my mind for a lengthy time.

Title: Canine Plague Subtitle: Life Will Never Be the Same Author: Burt Walker Narrator: Kevin Pierce Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 30 mins Language: English Release date: 06-09-16 Publisher: Walker Entrepreneurial Group Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 49 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: A Fascinating New Twist in the Post Apocalyptic Genre "One of the best social commentaries of our time, wrapped in a whopping good tale." "Can't believe it's a first effort! Very suspenseful! The thought that something so 'every day' and beloved could cause such chaos is chilling. I was actually frightened by the possibilities raised here and can see how something trivial can be twisted or corrupted to wreak havoc! Good job! Fiction or prediction of a possible future scenario? Scared me to think about it." Laura L. "I read a lot of books, mostly sci-fi or adventure. This is the best book I have read in a long time. The story is creative, original, and the more I hear about people in this world, the more I can see that it is possible and maybe probable and making me think strongly about stockpiling. The book was well written and leaving you wanting more. I will certainly read the next volume in this (hopefully) series. I give it 5 stars." Illiad5 The twisted world of mainstream news and social media becomes the catalyst for social upheaval, entangling Steven Bryant in a frantic fight for the lives of his family and friends. A news story goes viral, causing their once normal lives to take a dangerous turn when a flawed medical research study suggesting mans best friend might be his worst enemy. Chaos erupts and a near total collapse of society looms in a perfect storm of government corruption, political correctness, and social justice movements. Steven unwittingly finds himself the leader of a struggle for survival as America's civil structure and social fabric is exposed as a house of cards. Sworn enemies become allies when faced with a common cause and friends and family members become bitter enemies as they confront hunger and widespread violence in a threat to their very survival. Life will never be the same. Members Reviews: Politically fueled bad science Any additional comments? Enjoyable, interesting, intriguing and entertaining. Unusual and original premise for the plot line. Political views enough to irritate just about everyone. And little snippets to offend everyone else. It depends on where you stand politically to how offended you may feel. The timeline for the story takes place in 2016 and there are several prominent names used and many that just by description you have a pretty good idea who the story is referring to. The story is based on the premise people will believe just about anything if it's packaged right. Considering how dependent people have become on social media this is not far from the truth. The sheep/herd mentality aspect of the story is completely believable. Throughout the story he does bring up many good points about the world we live in and makes you think about what you would do in a similar situation. A senator with Alzheimer's - that's a really scary thought. Pushing a particular political agenda- that's done all the time. Kevin Pierce did another great job with the narration. Great job on all the different characters. He has the perfect voice for this type of story. Kevin pierce is fast becoming on of my favorite narrators. There is just something about his voice, you can listen to him for hours on end. Even if your not into a book he keeps you listening. Thoroughly enjoyed this book and I am looking forward to reading more from Mr.

Title: A Foreign Country Author: Charles Cumming Narrator: Jot Davies Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 31 mins Language: English Release date: 03-29-12 Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Limited Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 23 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Six weeks before she is due to take up her position as the first female head of MI6, Amelia Levene vanishes without a trace. Her disappearance is the gravest crisis MI6 has faced for more than a decade. There has been no ransom demand, no word from foreign intelligence services, and no hint of a defection. Should news of Levenes disappearance leak out, the consequences would be catastrophic. But for disgraced MI6 officer Thomas Kell, the crisis offers a chance for redemption. He is approached by his former employers and ordered to find her. Kells search takes him first to France, then North Africa, where he discovers an extraordinary secret hidden deep in Levenes past. It is a secret that could fatally compromise Britains national security - and for which Kell could pay with his life. This is another first-rate intelligent thriller which will cement Cumming's reputation as one of the most engaging British novelists writing today. Critic Reviews: "The master of the modern spy thriller' and heir to le Carré returns with another gripping and suspenseful novel." (Guardian) Members Reviews: More please Top narration Great writing and good story I hope Audible manages to get more for us,from this author with Jot Davies reading for us. For now, avoid downloading any other than top format as part 2 seems to be lost on 4 and 3. I think I have 6 part 1 as I tried to get part 2 without avail. I enjoyed The Trinity Six and this is even better As Charles Cumming is a widely acclaimed author who is well respected, I am surprised that there are so few Audible listeners. It may reflect the great divide of the pond in storytelling even if the UK and US are much closer than people know in other ways. Cracking story incredibly well read This is the 2nd Charles Cumming book I have listened to Jot Davies read, loved em both- more please! A very good story! I enjoyed this story from start to finish, as I have with most of Charles Cumming's books, and I dare say, shall continue to do so. And so? Perhaps it is unfair to write a review but I never finished this. It could be I'll get back to hear the end of the tale and wish I had waited to write this, but the story is not so gripping and has a sort of so what feel to it. I hope that it gets better, there is a double buff feel to it but I did not really feel engaged by the story or its characters despite the summary. Slow Burner But Very Good Very entertaining. Slightly involved writing at times but creates solid characters. Book changes midway for better

But when his friend Clara Morrow asks for help, he can't bring himself to refuse her, despite the old wounds it threatens to re-open. Clara's husband, Peter, is missing, having failed to come home on the first anniversary of their separation, as promised. As Gamache journeys further into Quebec, he is drawn deeper into the tortured mind of Peter Morrow, a man so desperate to recapture his fame as an artist that he would sell his soul. As Gamache gets closer to the truth, he uncovers a deadly trail of jealousy and deceit. Can Gamache bring Peter, and himself, home safely? Or in searching for answers, has he placed himself, and those closest to him, in terrible danger . . . From number one New York Times best-selling author, Louise Penny, comes an evocative, immersive novel brimming with atmosphere and heart-stopping suspense - her most ingenious novel to date. Members Reviews: Rambling I really liked most other books in the Gamache series. It is a beautifully situated homage to Agatha Christie. Unfortunately this was not an Inspector Gamache book, but rather a Painter Clara book. An irritating character tolerated in other books were placed centre stage and the story rambling on around her. No pace, no real mystery, just a rambling art review. Absorbing An absorbing ending to a 10 volume story of delightful people facing extraordinary events in an enchanting landscape. I am delighted to have found this series which at times had me laughing out loud and at other times weeping silently. You cannot read/listen to these books and not be touched by the characters and their reactions to each other and their surroundings. I feel as if I've wasted 12 hours of my life Would you try another book written by Louise Penny or narrated by Adam Sims? No. I do understand that I may have missed out by not listening in sequence. But I just found it turgid. What was most disappointing about Louise Pennys story? Really slow with little to no plot line. I kept waiting for it to start. Would you be willing to try another one of Adam Simss performances? No. I found his voice irritating. What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment? Utter disappointment after reading some great reviews. I'm normally middle of the road but I'm way out of step on this one,so perhaps it was too subtle. It did absolutely nothing but irritate me. Any additional comments? I did find some nuggets of info interesting for example being ignorant I didn't realise Asbestos was a place and a natural product. Also the results of overpainting a canvas. But that was about it. Not my favourite This story took too long to get to the interesting bits. However I enjoyed it just the same and I think the narrator is brilliant. Not my favourite Gamache book but still worth listening to. It was a long way home! I'd enjoyed earlier books in this series and found the introduction to the art world interesting.

Gold M.D. Narrator: Larry Gallegos Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 50 mins Language: English Release date: 06-18-14 Publisher: GRASS VALLEY PUBLISHING Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 54 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: First in the Brier Hospital Series. If you believe that television, movies or medical fiction, accurately portray what it's like to be an acute care physician or a critically ill patient in a hospital today, think again. Doctor Joseph Polk is an intelligent, charismatic, and a powerful member of the medical staff at Brier Hospital in the San Francisco Bay Area, and he's killing his patients. No gun, knife, poison or drug injected into their intravenous tubing, common plot lines in medical thrillers, and he doesn't plan to kill them. They die anyway because this once brilliant physician, a functional psychopath for most of his career, has decompensated. Nurses and front-line physicians see Polk's indifference, incompetence, and stubborn cruelty, but the medical staff and the hospital administration are willfully blind. Patients suffer, and worse. Jack Byrnes, finally completing his training in Intensive Care Medicine, joins the staff at Brier Hospital. Well prepared to care for patients, Jack is woefully unprepared when he runs smack into Joe Polk, the medical staff and the hospital's administration. The strength of First Do No Harm lies in the authenticity of the medical setting and the struggles of patients and physicians. Joe Polk is a very different kind of villain. Members Reviews: Terrible narrator! Definitely not a "thriller" This is my first really negative review but I had to write it. This was more a story about the politics and bureaucracy that doctors have to deal with. The narrator was horrible. He sounded like he was reading with gum or a lifesaver in his mouth. Don't waste the credit. I Had High Hopes, but... I have worked in healthcare for most of my adult life, so I was eager to read this book, thinking that it would be something I could relate to. It's certainly no thriller... There is no real suspense, and the story line is not really as interesting as I had hoped. The narrator sounded like he just wanted to get through the darned thing. His voice was often monotone, and his characters were sometimes indistinguishable. He also could have used some help with his pronunciation of medical terms. It seemed to me that the author wrote this for unsophisticated readers. The language was often quite childish (particularly the few intimate scenes, which were almost embarrassingly written). There were obvious editing issues with tenses and pronouns. Overall, the premise of the book was a good one. It's a good thing to explore the issues around dealing with difficult and incompetent physicians in the hospital setting. I just wish it had been much better written and performed. I Tried to keep going What would have made First, Do No Harm better? A different reader could have made this a better story....but only marginal. They were so monotone that you just lose interest What could Lawrence W. Gold M.D. have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you? Make it less like a text book read with a story that flows. Any additional comments? I love a good medical thriller... this is not one of that category.

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe. Who'll be next? No one knows.... When forensic pathologist Lucy Trask stumbles across a mutilated body with its face so badly damaged it is unrecognisable by the chess tables in her local Baltimore park, her sole concern is that it might be her old school teacher Mr Pugh. When the corpse is identified, Lucy is shocked to discover that the victim is actually another man from her past. Who killed him and why his skin is burnt with the number '1' is unclear, but it's evident that someone is demanding Lucy's attention. The discovery of a second branded body raises worrying questions: How many more lives may be at risk before the killer's final message is revealed? And can Lucy solve the killer's gruesome puzzle before their thirst for revenge is complete? Critic Reviews: "An engrossing read which fans of crime thrillers will love." (News of the World) Members Reviews: think twice Would you try another book from Karen Rose and/or Liza Ross? I dont mind the author. The narration was terrible!!. She was supposed to be portraying a young woman and she came off sounding like Betty White - was not suitable for this story . She is probably a great narrator but not for this style of story- completely wrecked it for me. . Seriously thought about stopping as it was almost unbearable Would you recommend You Belong to Me to your friends? Why or why not? No unfortunately. Not on audiobook anyway What didnt you like about Liza Rosss performance? She was quavery, too slow in the wrong places. It sounded like she was reading this story for the first time. She had no feel for where a sentence was ending or whether people were angry, sad etc. I'm sorry to be bagging her as I dont know her but she was so wrong for this book - I was really disappointed. First time it has happened so maybe I am going overboard. You didnt love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities? The story had potential. The fact I enjoyed that is the only reason I persevered Any additional comments? Listen to sample before buying- it could be painful if you dont. Another winner for Karen Rose If you could sum up You Belong to Me in three words, what would they be? I am loving these Karen Rose audiobooks! She is able to strike the right balance between thriller and romance and usually has a twist at the end that you don't see coming. I only allow myself to listen when I'm exercising so getting into shape as there are so many good bits I can't wait to hear! Thanks Karen! I also enjoyed the the narration by Liza Ross, which is saying something as sometimes the narrator's voice is so distracting you have difficulty concentrating on the book. All in all, loved it. Hated it, couldn't finish it. Baled out. The narration was horrible. The narrator had a pleasant American accent which went into a Thatcherite drone when narrating a male character and a high pitched sing song for female characters which made my flesh crawl. The lead character, a professional woman in a tough job sounded like she was in an audition for My Little Pony The Movie. Just awful. I struggled even beginning to care about any of the characters. Others have given this book good reviews but I just couldn't get past the narration.

He Who Dies Last Audiobook by Christoph Spielberg

Title: He Who Dies Last Subtitle: Dr. Hoffmann, Book 2 Author: Christoph Spielberg Narrator: Michael Page Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 25 mins Language: English Release date: 04-09-13 Publisher: Brilliance Audio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 27 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Doctor Felix Hoffmann is furious when an infusion pump mysteriously fails, nearly killing his 82-year-old patient. But his anger quickly turns to suspicion when he learns the patients posh apartment is for sale - without the patients knowledge. Together with his vivacious girlfriend, Celine, Felix discovers that someone at the hospital has concocted a deadly scheme to fleece geriatric patients and then hasten their deaths. Turns out he didnt save his patient from an equipment failure - he saved him from murder. When a suspicious accident turns the daring doctor into a patient at his own hospital, Felix must fight for his life while tracking down the killer. Can he unravel the scheme before the killer makes his rounds? Members Reviews: Outstanding! A low-key mystery set in Berlin -- and a great listen by any standard. There's murder afoot here -- but Dr, Felix Hoffman works with geriatric patients, and some of the normal end-of-life situations he encounters might be natural, others clearly not so. But this is not a "thriller", rather a really interesting look into the world of seriously ill old people and one doctor who serves them. And their pets. The following is not really a "spoiler", but... "Trixie", described as an 'ugly mutt' was owned by Dr. Hoffman's elderly aunt, so when the aunt herself dies, Trixie is adopted by Dr. Hoffman and figures prominently in the tale. What's interesting -- as a side note in the story -- is that Dr, Hoffman recognizes the important part that pets play in the lives of the elderly, and so he uses a legacy to create an adjunct to their hospital, a kennel for patient's pets, where the patients can go to visit any time they're able -- they even installed a few hospital beds, so a patient can even spend the night with their pet if they wish. Not surprisingly for us pet lovers, but Dr. Hoffman notes that after this facility is established, the demand for pain medication and anti-depressants in his ward drops by half. I believe that -- and an interesting idea. I wonder if this really exists in Germany. All in all, this a really good book. I'd never heard of the book or the author before -- thank you Daily Deal! -- but now I'll definitely seek out more "Dr. Hoffman" books on Audible. Very enjoyable -- I was sad to finish it. He Who Dies Last:: Dr Hoffmann -Fan for life This was my first experience with Dr Hoffmann series and it definitely made me a fan. It was filled with surprising twists and turns. I found it very refreshing to have characters that faced ordinary issues while in the mist of challenging circumstances. I look forward to listening to more of Christoph Spielberg works. Michael Page did an outstanding job, it is a pleasure to listen to him.

The Hidden Child Audiobook by Camilla Läckberg

Title: The Hidden Child Subtitle: Patrik Hedström and Erica Falck, Book 5 Author: Camilla Läckberg Narrator: Eamonn Riley Format: Unabridged Length: 17 hrs and 34 mins Language: English Release date: 06-20-11 Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Limited Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 34 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Worldwide best seller Camilla Lackberg weaves together another brilliant contemporary psychological thriller with the chilling struggle of a young woman facing the darkest chapter of Europe's past. Crime writer Erica Falck is shocked to discover a Nazi medal among her late mother's possessions. Haunted by a childhood of neglect, she resolves to dig deep into her family's past and finally uncover the reasons why. Her enquiries lead her to the home of a retired history teacher. He was among her mother's circle of friends during the Second World War but her questions are met with bizarre and evasive answers. Two days later he meets a violent death. Detective Patrik Hedström, Erica's husband, is on paternity leave but soon becomes embroiled in the murder investigation. Who would kill so ruthlessly to bury secrets so old? Reluctantly Erica must read her mother's wartime diaries. But within the pages is a painful revelation about Erica's past. Could what little knowledge she has be enough to endanger her husband and new-born baby? The dark past is coming to light, and no one will escape the truth of how they came to be. Critic Reviews: "Läckberg is an expert at mixing scenes of domestic cosiness with blood-curdling horror a must for white-knuckle junkies." (Guardian) "Läckberg is particularly good at portraying the claustrophobia of a small community in which everyone knows everyone else and the police may well be friends with killers." (The Times) Members Reviews: Camilla Lackberg gets my vote again. Eamon Riley is a brilliant narrator. Camilla has created such complicated characters and each book allows the reader to learn more of the characters and why they act the way they do. I love crime novels and she is one of my favourite authors. I much prefer the authors of the Scandinavian countries. Will definitely continue to 'listen' to Camilla's books. Sugar Coated Holocaust This will be the last Camilla Lackberg I read. This pretentious and poorly written novel might be just about acceptable as a childrens book but it is an insult to even a moderate adult intelligence. The characters are two dimensional, shallow and irritating and include those such as the cringe making Scandinavian man who does his bit of tidying up and the older boss who is ridiculed as a buffoon. The prose is laboured and leaden and the story line full of inconsistencies. The level of sentimentality is high and at times it was like being force fed marshmallows: the prose syrupy, stilted and contrived. I shudder to think what kind of labour Ms Lackberg had with her children because the mawkish account she gives in the book pushed credibility to new limits. This book is full of tired old stereotypes and a ceaseless mind-numbing litany of trivia. Given the underlying subject matter this book is an insult to those who lived through the second world war and suffered its consequences. Old fashion cliché I think the book started quite well and I was hooked listening, but it didn't take long before the style of the writing become incredibly dreary. It's so old fashioned and simple in it's style, like the essays you wrote in college. If I didn't know better I would have thought this was an amateur writer.

Their only lead is through convicted serial killer William Bantling, who knows the sinister societys secrets first-hand. But Bantling wont show his hand for free he wants off Death Row. For Manny and Daria, the nightmare is just beginning. And the only thing more devastating than this cases past is what lies ahead Critic Reviews: "Guaranteed to follow in the best-selling footsteps of Cornwell, Reichs and Slaughter." (The Guardian) "Gripping, well-crafted suspense a belter of a book." (Sunday Express) "Hoffman writes like an angel. Outstanding." (Independent on Sunday) "Hugely readable." (Daily Mirror) Members Reviews: Excellent crime At last the new Jilliane Hoffman in audiobook! Not for the fainthearted but for fans of Karin Slaughter et al a must! I really could not stop listening to this audiobook . The plot, characteristion and narration are all excellent and it is definitely one of those books that leaves you struggling to find something to match it afterwards. Why though is Jillianne Hoffman's 'Pretty Little Things' not on Audible? Hanibal Hector Very interesting angle on a convicted rapist, it reminds one of the film Hanibal Hector. Kept me spellbound. Great Story What a really great story and told well. I found the whole thing very good and recommend it highly.

He soon discovers that it's not just his patient's cranial anatomy that's remarkable, but his superlative mental capabilities as well. As more and more patients surface with similar mystifying profiles, Danny searches for answers. If he can figure out the cause of this surge in advanced mental faculties, the ramifications to humankind could be staggering. Danny wonders, however. Is this mysterious brain power too good to be true? Collateral Circulation is the 2015 National Indie Excellence Awards finalist for medical thrillers! Critic Reviews: "This third addition to the Danny Tilson medical mystery series won't disappoint either old fans or newcomers who love medical intrigue ala Robin Cook and the best medical writers in the genre. Perhaps that's because it comes from the seasoned hand of a physician who is steeped in the world of medical description and events and whose professional pen thus effortlessly describes such scenarios." (Midwest Book Reviews) Members Reviews: Excellent Novel Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? The book was excellent and I truly enjoy the story as I have all of Ebel's novel's. I would probably suggest that if my friend had the time that he/she read the novel rather than listen to it. I found the cadence of the narrators voice totally annoying and much to be desired. The pauses were in odd places and took away from the authors writing, which I thought was too bad. I read her other two books an found listening to this one difficult. What did you like best about this story? The story was excellent and enjoyable as Ebel's first two novels had been. Danny Tilson is a likable character that you find yourself rooting for as the novel proceeds. Though this one didn't have the drama that her first two novels had but it was still fascinating as you consider the possibility of a potential wonder drink. Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Dave Wright? John Ruebenstien and Alexander Alexander Adams would be my top choices though I enjoy Robb Lamont, and Titus Welliver as well.

Ephraim Goodweather and his team from the Center for Disease Control must work quickly to establish the cause of this strange ocurrence before panic spreads. The first thing they discover is that four of the victims are actually still alive. But that's the only good news. And when all 200 corpses disappear from various morgues around the city on the same night, things very rapidly get worse. Soon Eph and a small band of helpers will find themselves battling to protect not only their own loved ones, but the whole city, against an ancient threat to humanity. Members Reviews: Great vampire story I liked this one, no pretty vampires suffering from existential crisis, just disgusting evil things. It has a lot of atmosphere and I will get the sequel when it comes. It owes a lot to Dracula of course but so do most stories in that genre. Ron Pearlman does a good job. Feels like watching a scary vampire movie. excellent, scary and enjoyable i really enjoyed this. the story was novel and gripping. the narrator was excellent, conveyed the different voices very well. i look forward to the rest of the series. one of my best downloads ever! A gripping, heartwrenching thriller The most horrifying outbreak-story I've ever come across. The gripping, suspensefilled, science-y beginning and middle gets changed for more of a common action-y tone by the end though. I'm hoping it'll find back for the next sequels but I'm not counting on it frankly. The narration is quite good. Ron Perlman doesn't have a big range of voices but the one he has is very pleasant to listen to. mediocre With the names involved, I thought this would be much better than it was. It was a let down, especially Pearlman's narration (which I had expected to enjoy). The musical interludes were also very irritating. Great Adventure Story Very enjoyable and well narrated

For decades, December 21, 2012, has been a touchstone for doomsayers worldwide. It is the date, they claim, when the ancient Maya calendar predicts the world will end. In Los Angeles, two weeks before, all is calm. Dr. Gabriel Stanton takes his usual morning bike ride, drops off the dog with his ex-wife, and heads to the lab where he studies incurable prion diseases for the CDC. His first phone call is from a hospital resident who has an urgent case she thinks he needs to see. Meanwhile, Chel Manu, a Guatemalan American researcher at the Getty Museum, is interrupted by a desperate, unwelcome visitor from the black market antiquities trade who thrusts a duffel bag into her hands. By the end of the day, Stanton, the foremost expert on some of the rarest infections in the world, is grappling with a patient whose every symptom confounds and terrifies him. And Chel, the brightest young star in the field of Maya studies, has possession of an illegal artifact that has miraculously survived the centuries intact: a priceless codex from a lost city of her ancestors. This extraordinary record, written in secret by a royal scribe, seems to hold the answer to her life's work and to one of history's great riddles: why the Maya kingdoms vanished overnight. Suddenly it seems that our own civilization might suffer this same fate. With only days remaining until December 21, 2012, Stanton and Chel must join forces before time runs out. Critic Reviews: "Thomason displays an impressive depth of knowledge of both science and the ancient Mayan way of life. Along the way, he skillfully ramps up the action, one notch at a time. A winning book." (Kirkus Reviews) "The most exciting novel of its kind since the days of Michael Crichton, 12.21 takes us from the frontiers of modern neuroscience to the riddles of ancient Maya texts, with nothing less than the future of our civilization at stake." (Vince Flynn) Members Reviews: Three stars, but enjoyable The premise was clever -- making both the scientific and the religious explanation for an apocalypse seem 'plausible.' (If events happen to come together too smoothly....is it a preposterous coincidence, or fate?) The writing was pretty solid. The narration, for the most part, was good (except for Noel Rodriguez -- I assume he is the reader for the "scribe" and sounds like a caricature of a drunk who is exaggerating his Spanish accent...those parts were excruciating and I found myself listening at double-speed through some sections). I was totally entertained -- and yet, the character development was a little weak and some fail to come alive as people. They are simply figures in the plot. Still, like I said, I did enjoy it. Not Awful But... The science and medicine is sort of interesting but the story is not well written. I love sci-fi and I am pretty good about suspending logic for the sake of a good story but there are parts of this books that are just dumb.

Is Bane a criminally insane stalker who has fixed on Scarpetta? Or is his paranoid tale true, and it is he who is being spied on, followed and stalked by the actual killer? The one thing Scarpetta knows for certain is that a woman has been tortured and murdered - and more violent deaths will follow. Gradually, an inexplicable and horrifying truth emerges: Whoever is committing the crimes knows where his prey is at all times. Is it a person, a government? And what is the connection between the victims? In the days that follow, Scarpetta; her forensic psychologist husband, Benton Wesley; and her niece, Lucy, who has recently formed her own forensic computer investigation firm in New York, will undertake a harrowing chase through cyberspace and the all-too-real streets of the city - an odyssey that will take them at once to places they never knew, and much, much too close to home. Throughout, Cornwell delivers shocking twists and turns, and the kind of cutting-edge technology that only she can provide. Once again, she proves her exceptional ability to entertain and enthrall. Members Reviews: Abrigded! Would you try another book from Patricia Cornwell and/or Mary Stuart Masterson? Yes Has Scarpetta turned you off from other books in this genre? I didn't realize I got an abridged version - it was terrible. I thought something was missing the whole book and now know why. Stupid mistake - will more careful in the future What aspect of Mary Stuart Mastersons performance would you have changed? She was good - I'm used to Kate Reading doing Scapetta What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment? disappointment - my fault got the abridge version

Title: The Testament of Jessie Lamb Subtitle: A Novel Author: Jane Rogers Narrator: Fiona Hardingham Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 15 mins Language: English Release date: 12-01-12 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 7 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: A rogue virus that kills pregnant women has been let loose in the world, and nothing less than the survival of the human race is at stake. Some blame the scientists, others see the hand of God, and still others claim that humanity is reaping the punishment it deserves for years of arrogance and destructiveness. Jessie Lamb is an ordinary 16-year-old girl living in extraordinary times. As her world collapses, her idealism and courage drive her toward the ultimate act of heroism. Jessie wants her life to make a difference; but is she heroic, or is she, as her scientist father fears, impressionable, innocent, and incapable of understanding where her actions will lead? Set in a world irreparably altered by an act of biological terrorism, The Testament of Jessie Lamb explores a young womans struggle for independence. As the certainties of her childhood are ripped apart, Jessie begins to question her parents attitudes, their behavior, and the very world they have bequeathed her. Jane Rogers has written numerous books, including Mr. Wroes Virgins, Island and The Voyage Home. She has won the Somerset Maugham Award and the Writers Guild Fiction Book Award. A professor of writing at Sheffield Hallam University, she lives near Manchester, England. Critic Reviews: "Jane Rogers has captured Jessie's voice brilliantly, alternating a teenager's solipsism with a growing awareness of the wider world. Jessie's self-conviction is both admirable and infuriating, and the reader is torn between her clear, unequivocal conclusions and the intricate, heartfelt compromises of her parents." (Times Literary Supplement, London) "The novel does not set up an elaborate apocalypse but astringently strips away the smears hiding the apocalypses we really face. Like Jessie's, it is a small, calm voice of reason in a nonsensical world." (Independent, London) "A wonderful evocation of teenage confusion, passion, and idealism." (Daily Mail. London) Members Reviews: Compelling I'm a sucker for apocalyptic stories, and this one fits the bill. The premise isn't original, but it's handled in a way that I found immensely interesting. I especially enjoyed the background events as people group and splinter as they adjust to the new reality. The book asks a lot of questions about sexuality, parenthood, and consent, but it doesn't really answer any of them. This might be a great selection for a book club. The book is written in first person and the limited viewpoint can be frustrating, especially since the protagonist is a teenage girl. On the other hand, she is realistically written and while I, as an adult, find her decisions difficult to accept, they are exactly what many teenagers would do. I don't usually get emotional over books, but I did tear up a little at the end. I only wish that there had been an epilogue to the story, something to let the audience know how the MDS situation shakes out. Fiona Hardingham does an excellent job with the narration. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another book with her as the narrator. There are a lot of issues with the book. As mentioned before, the premise is unoriginal, the protagonist is, at times, unlikable, and the end of the book leaves the reader with questions.

When the bodies of a man and woman are found buried in the Dublin mountains, each with a single hole from a pistol in their skulls, Stefan soon finds himself immersed in a complex case as he tries to piece together the mystery of the missing woman. As Stefan and Hannah are drawn closer together in their mission to uncover the truth of what happened to Susan, they soon find themselves in terrible danger.... Members Reviews: Great story set in a very interesting time This book was a wonderful surprise. I am not familiar with the author, and not familiar with this time in Ireland in the 1930s. The author weaves in some of the troubled history of Ireland's fight against the British. But he is also concerned with Irish Nazi sympathizers. A good mystery, well written and well paced. The Irish narrator was a bonus! CITY OF SHADOWS Wonderful storyline, great historical research. Only drawback is the horrible pronunciation of foreign words, German and Hebrew. Does no-one listen to the tapes and correct them? Looking forward to the next. More Conor Delaney What did you like most about The City of Shadows? It demonstrates how easy it is for evil to proceed. What did you like best about this story? an enthralling listen, with a serious undertone of how corrupt we all are. What about Conor Delaneys performance did you like?

The Blood Betrayal Audiobook by Don Donaldson

Title: The Blood Betrayal Author: Don Donaldson Narrator: Peter Jacobson Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 59 mins Language: English Release date: 02-04-15 Publisher: BelleBooks, Inc. Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 48 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: When hematologist Dr. Carl Martin is called into a Little Rock emergency room, not even his expertise can save Benjamin Rasco from bleeding to death. But why did the man die? His condition shouldn't have been fatal. And no one should have such bizarre red blood cells. Hoping to uncover a reason for the medical mystery, Carl travels to Rasco's hometown, an isolated, religious community nestled deep in the Arkansas Mountains. Instead of answers, however, Carl's faced with more questions - and a mysterious woman who stows away in his car. Sheltered Beth Corbin only wants to see the world for a few days before returning to Artisan, where the town leaders discourage mixing with the outside world. But after talking with Carl, Beth becomes increasingly distrustful of those leaders, and the suspicions she's been harboring about the town become too intense to ignore. Together, Carl and Beth uncover an astounding medical conspiracy that not only affects all the residents of Artisan, but shatters every belief Carl ever held about himself. Don holds a Ph.D. in human anatomy. In his professional career, he has taught microscopic anatomy to over five thousand medical and dental students and published dozens of research papers on wound healing. He is also the author of seven published forensic mysteries and five medical thrillers. He lives in Memphis, Tennessee with his wife and two West Highland terriers. Members Reviews: Finally, A Real Medical Mystery... What made the experience of listening to The Blood Betrayal the most enjoyable? There are so many books that use the workings of the human body as a mechanism for suspense without quite knowing how the body works. This one delivers though, Donaldson is at the cutting edge of medical technology, and it makes for a great mystery. The narrator, at the same time he's telling the story, is a member of the audience, working to solve the puzzles along with us. His voice doesn't call attention to itself but serves instead as a pleasant window through which we see the plot play out. Kudos to all... Any additional comments? Thanks for the excellent work... Good book, not strong as hoped in medical departme What did you love best about The Blood Betrayal? Good suspense, esp. at the beginning with interesting plot. What other book might you compare The Blood Betrayal to and why? Early Robin Cook or Michael Palmer, but with less actual medical info and not quite the character developement What about Peter Jacobsons performance did you like? It was okay, understandable, good pace. Any additional comments? The first of book was more suspence-filled than second part. I did enjjoy it but would have liked more actual medicine or research emphasis along with the suspense and character. But I did recommend it for people who like this kind of book. Good narration Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not? This is the first book in a long time that I looked forward to listening to. I listen on my dog walks -- two 45-minute walks per day. Would you be willing to try another book from Don Donaldson? Why or why not? Not sure. Though the story kept my interest, there were some parts I found implausible. One thing that made me wonder was the inconsistency of technology. With the lack of cell phones I thought the setting was maybe early 1990s but clearly the bits about the hacker character negated that notion.

The Plague Within Audiobook by Lawrence Gold

Title: The Plague Within Subtitle: Brier Hospital Series Author: Lawrence Gold Narrator: Daniel Polonka Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 5 mins Language: English Release date: 05-28-14 Publisher: GRASS VALLEY PUBLISHING Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 19 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Even in the age of the genome and sophisticated biotechnology, medical progress still moves at a snail's pace. Seasoned investigators are matured by experience and they accept the virtue of the too-slow scientific process. The young, however have been brought up in a world of instant gratification, and they barrel ahead never looking back to see the havoc in their wake. So it is with Dr. Harmony Lane. In her single-minded obsession to cure her patients, she cuts corners and treats a desperately ill woman with an experimental viral vector provided by an unscrupulous research scientist. While he shares her impatience, he cares nothing for her humanistic sensibilities. She uses a similar vector on her patients with autoimmune diseases. While the vector has remarkable curative properties, it soon becomes clear that it has devastating and lethal side effects. The race is on to cure or at least control the vector before it kills again. The novel proves, once again, that "the road to hell is paved with good intentions". Members Reviews: Excellent This is one of my favorite series. The Plague Within has a compelling premise and the story delivers. Worthwhile If you could sum up The Plague Within in three words, what would they be? Not Quite There--OR--Well Worth Reading What does Daniel Polonka bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? I like him very much. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? I enjoyed the first book in the series and look forward to reading the next one. Made me think and was simultaneously a relaxing read. Any additional comments? Character development impressive. Real science and moral issues. Pace easy not an intense thriller so perhaps billed inappropriately (over sold) by publisher? Poorly written and poorly read. Would you try another book from Lawrence Gold and/or Daniel Polonka? It's a little hard to distinguish which is worse in this offering - the writing or the reading. Neither are well done and when combined, result in an almost painful Audible experience. I will be avoiding this author and narrator in the future.

Everything and Nothing Audiobook by Araminta Hall

Title: Everything and Nothing Author: Araminta Hall Narrator: Amy Elton Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 8 mins Language: English Release date: 01-17-13 Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Limited Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 8 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: A gripping psychological suspense read. Cupboards were sticky from spilt jam and honey, and the oven smoked when you turned it on because of the fat that had built up over the years. Agatha would never, ever let her future home end up like this. She would never leave it every day like Ruth did. She would never put her trust in strangers. Ruth and Christian are - just - holding their marriage together, after Christian's disastrous affair a year ago. But chaos beckons, and when the family are suddenly left without any childcare, Agatha comes into their lives to solve all their problems. But Agatha is not as perfect as she seems and her love for the children masks a deeper secret. Everything and Nothing is a stunningly assured debut, superbly evoking an atmosphere of inexorable and sinister menace that builds to a mesmerising climax in a story that is, at its heart, about thwarted and damaged love. Critic Reviews: "An assured debut takes the Mary Poppins myth and turns it into a menacing tale of the enemy invited in. Araminta Hall has turned the perfect nanny trope into something much more disturbing. Imagine a mash-up of Mary Poppins with Stephen King and you get the general idea. What makes this smartly written first novel so disturbing is its moral ambiguity; Hall keeps us engaged with all the characters, even the duplicitous Agatha, right up until the end. I suspect that this will be the first of what promises to be a new genre: the nanny chiller." (Daisy Goodwin, lead fiction review, The Sunday Times) "Chilling and suspenseful." (The Suns Best of 2011 book picks) "An unsettling, menacing read." (Grazia, 2011 Reading List selection) Members Reviews: Five Stars Page turner. Well written. Interesting but a disappointing ending Review of Everything and Nothing - Araminta Hall. Read as part of monthly Bookclub read. The book is centred around Christian, Ruth their two children Betty and Hal along with their nanny Agatha. Ruth is a full time working mum, deputy editor of a magazine and therefore an extremely busy woman, whose children have problems of their own. Christian is Ruth's husband with his own job and all seems well. He's working and completely obvlious to his surroundings until Sarah walks back into his life. Sarah is a woman he had an affair with a few years back. Betty is the eldest child who has never slept in her own bed all night, this causes problems between the parents, each with their own view what should be done. Hal is the youngest child who has only ever drank milk until Agatha (the new nanny) walks into their lives and through gentle persuasion helps him understand food and encourages him to eat. They form a bond, too strong of a bond which is where the story seems to centre on to me. Agatha has a past a dark past which you get a glimmer of through the book, but is employed to look after the children, unbeknown to the parents she has an ulterior motive. The book moves along with the story entwined between them all, each sides story being unfolded as you turn the pages. Towards the end you have a rough idea of what is going to happen and as you get to the end the story unravels quickly .... too quickly in my opinion and I felt that the ending was rushed, as though the author had realised she didn't have long left to finish the story.

The Burning Wire Audiobook by Jeffery Deaver

Manhattan's electricity grid has been the victim of a horrific attack... and more are planned. While the FBI tries to determine who's behind the carnage, Lincoln Rhyme and Amelia Sachs race to decode the forensics and prevent the next assault. But all is not what it seems, and Lincoln Rhyme soon finds he's up against a merciless killer with a unique weapon - one that can be found in everyone's home and office.... Members Reviews: A 3 hours story streached to 13 hours. What would have made The Burning Wire better? 1) Sabotage of the electrical grid, has potential of an epic tale, like "One Second After". Yet this writer turns it into a simple murder.2) At the end of this book, you will not know many characters, yet be acquinted with many. Most are irrelevant and you will wonder, why spend so much time on them?3) The author describes the villan, perhaps 10 times, as a white male, with short blond hair... Once is enough. Twice is ample.In summary, most of this book is pulp, to strech out a fair story to 13 hours, and when you get to the end, where the croock is apprehended, the end is still not in sight. It keeps going nowhere untill the batteries run out. Would you ever listen to anything by Jeffery Deaver again? No Did the narration match the pace of the story? Yes. If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from The Burning Wire? So that its no longer than 6-9 hours.I love long books, but there must be 13 hours worth of story in it. Any additional comments? Good story. Catching the villan was a masterpiece. Getting there was a struggle to listen to, and then.... why not end at a good note? As good as ever I thought I might begin to tire of Lincoln And his cohorts but this one is as good as the previous. The unsub does not appear as chillingly evil as previous ones but continues to cause convulsions in the story. I also enjoy the building on characters from previous books. Brilliant A good story full of twists and turns. Couldn't guess the end. Exciting and unpredictable The wire struggled to finish didn't need the last two chapters . didn't like the narrator Pity about the narration If you could sum up The Burning Wire in three words, what would they be? Enjoyable story line. How did the narrator detract from the book? The narrator was easy to listen to and read well but there was very little tone change between the characters which makes it boring. Not up to expectations.

River Deep: Martha Gunn, Book 1 Audiobook by Priscilla Masters

Title: River Deep: Martha Gunn, Book 1 Author: Priscilla Masters Narrator: Patricia Gallimore Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 25 mins Language: English Release date: 07-06-09 Publisher: Whole Story Audiobooks Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 25 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: In the dark and fetid cottage, Martha's instincts tell her that this is a homicide - a hunch borne out by the post mortem. But there are many questions about the dead man's identity. He is initially thought to be James Humphreys, a respectable, middle-aged businessman who had rented the cottage a couple of months ago, and had recently gone missing. The corpse certainly fits his description. Yet when Mr Humphreys' wife, Cressida, comes to identify the body, she is adamant that it is not her husband. So who is it? Why has he been murdered? And where has the real Mr Humphreys gone? Members Reviews: Great read This is a very good book. I love Martha and her side need of playing sleuth as well as being a coroner. She is a smart and intriguing character. I look forward to reading more about Martha and her cases. The reader is very good as well. I think a reader can make or break even a good book. A bit slow moving, but good listen If you could sum up River Deep: Martha Gunn, Book 1 in three words, what would they be? Interesting, meandering, surprise-ending Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How? No, far from it. It is the story of Martha Gunn, a coroner who is technically and ethically not supposed to be doing any detecting on her own, but whose natural curiosity pushes her into it anyway. This is not a fast-paced CSI style book, but comes closer to the slowly unfolding classic detective story--with the twist that the main character is not allowed to be a snoop. Part of what is interesting are the ways she can get around the rules to do that anyway. What about Patricia Gallimores performance did you like? I thought she did a good job of making all the voices clear and distinct, but a few sounded rather "forced." I found myself wishing she might have read just a tad faster, but she still did a good enough job with the book. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? It has a good, unexpected ending. Any additional comments? I felt that Martha's character was well-developed. I had a good sense of who she is, what had occurred in her background to bring her to where she is in the book, but the other characters (mostly those she works with) we're sadly undeveloped (to my taste), but that leaves room for more in future books in the series. Such a disappointing book What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? Nothing. This book gives the impression of being two story ideas tacked together. But even tacking two story concepts together did not give the author enough material and so there are many instances of meandering space filling sections stuffed into this book. Would you ever listen to anything by Priscilla Masters again? No What three words best describe Patricia Gallimores voice? Dreadful male voices What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment? Mounting frustration. Any additional comments? Unbelievable main plot, a sub plot that might never have existed as it just sort of disappeared. So many aspects of the story that were just ridiculous in the end I was waiting for the next ridiculous situation to arrive

But when her laboratory is destroyed and her colleagues murdered, she realized she's in danger: a conspiracy of proportions she never dreamed possible is out to crush her work. In another part of the country the population of an entire town has disappeared into thin air, leaving behind only half-finished meals, empty offices and schools. Who is responsible? A cabal of power-seeking corporations? Rogue victims of Army medical experiments gone horribly wrong? Who is behind the traitorous plot that threatens to sacrifice our country to the Kingdom of the Seven? Members Reviews: Pleasant Indulgence Jon Land writes excellent conspiracy books. In the 50's these would have been called pulp fiction, and now I call books such as these pleasant indulgences. Ben & Danielle Jon Land's series about the Middle East featuring two detectives, Ben, a Palestinian, and Danielle, an Israeli, is one of the best mystery/thriller series I've read. His knowledge of the politics of the area is exemplary, and his characters make you wish, more then usual, that their own concerns were solving murders rather then political intrigue. If you have any interest in mysteries, read it. If you have any interest in political thrillers, read it. If you are interested in the Middle East and the Palestine-Israeli, definitely read it. blaine mccracken rides again Blaine McCracken outdoes Jason Bourne. US ultimate weapon against world domination. Read about him, Sal, and Johnny Wareagle. Five Stars Excellent writer - fast pace. love this series great read..but you really need to read the series in order..but just love the action and the twists and turns..and all the characters are sooooooooo real..makes you feel like you are right there with them..

Title: Tuesday's Gone Subtitle: A Frieda Klein Novel, Book 2 Author: Nicci French Narrator: Beth Chalmers Format: Unabridged Length: 12 hrs and 45 mins Language: English Release date: 07-19-12 Publisher: Penguin Books Ltd Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 28 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Nicci French, the best-selling author of What to do When Someone Dies and Losing You, returns with the second book in the gripping new series that began with top-ten best seller Blue Monday. Fans of Peter James Roy Grace series and Peter Robinsons DCI Banks series will love the central character, psychotherapist Frieda Klein, who is consulted on a grisly and seemingly unsolvable crime. For Frieda the days get longer, the cases darker. She thought she was done with the police. But once more DCI Karlsson is knocking at her door. A mans decomposed body has been found in the flat of Michelle Doyce, a woman trapped in a world of strange mental disorder. The police dont know who it is, how he got there, or what happened - and Michelle cant tell them. But Karlsson hopes Frieda can get access to the truths buried beneath her confusion. Painstakingly, Frieda uncovers a possible identity for the corpse: Robert Poole, a jack of all trades and master conman. But the deeper Frieda and Karlsson dig into Pooles past, the more of his victims they encounter - and the more motives they find for murder. Meanwhile, violent ghosts from Friedas own past are returning to threaten her. Unable to discover quite who is telling the truth and who is lying, they know they are getting closer to a killer. But whoever murdered Poole is determined to stay free - and anyone that gets too close will meet the same fate. A gritty heroine, a gruesome crime, and a terrifying hunt for a psychotic killer, Tuesdays Gone is not to be missed by fans of psychological thrillers. Nicci French is the pseudonym for Nicci Gerrard and Sean French. The couple live in Suffolk and have written 12 other best-selling novels, including Beneath the Skin and Blue Monday, the first thrilling instalment in the Frieda Klein series. Members Reviews: so well perfomed, makes up for a complicated story What did you love best about Tuesday's Gone? I just love the way Nicci French describes the characters What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting? The relationship between the inspector and Frieda Klein Have you listened to any of Beth Chalmerss other performances before? How does this one compare? I read Blue Monday and found her performance as brilliant as in Tuesday's gone. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? I just couldn't stop listening Any additional comments? Such a meticulous description of live in London Riveting If you could sum up Tuesday's Gone in three words, what would they be? Riveting, engaging, empathic What does Beth Chalmers bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? She captures each character's personality perfectly. I could listen to her for hours! Her accents are also very convincing. If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be? But he's still out there * More Brilliance! * Make sure you listen to Blue Monday before listening to this. That had me looking for more and I found Tuesday's Gone. I felt that some of this one was a little unrealistic in that Frieda Klein does a little too much of the police work. But that's the only negative to this story. Again, you're drawn into the story until the end. It has it's twists like Blue Monday. Characters with their distinct personalities. Beth Chalmers is an excellent narrator.

I know about six words in German and so gave the book away. Attic I ordered this book but did not realize that it was in the language German. So needless to say I had to return it. I was hoping to try to find a copy that is in English. Attic This book was in German, I don't speak German, so was unable to read it. Confusing I bought this thinking it was a new Preston/Child book. Turns out it is a German version of "Reliquary," translated back into English. It is not verbatim from the English version so I have no idea why anyone would buy this instead of just buying "Reliquary." Some of the translations are not entirely accurate either. Attic is in German! I was very excited to see this book by Preston/Child. I have read every book by them and this one was new...however, it's in German! I can't read German...I assumed it was in English. I am very disappointed and just hope I can get my money back. Joanne Reese, Washington

When a humanitarian aid hospital nearby diagnoses a disturbingly similar human case, the former Special Forces veterinarian knows he must figure out how to stop this outbreak from spreading--before it blows up into a global pandemic. Halfway across the continent, a massive cargo ship moves out of Sudan's largest port. Buried deep within its hold is one container of urgent significance for its buyer in the Persian Gulf. And back in Washington, D.C., the owner of a Lebanese restaurant a stone's throw from the White House finds a cryptic message in the Drafts folder of his e-mail inbox. It's one week before Independence Day, and an unpopular president is preparing to host America's biggest celebration in years. There's just one small problem: he's not the only one with plans for the holiday. With the woman he loves sick and close to death, Cole puts his own life on the line in a race against time to discover the truth behind the outbreak's origin--a truth that will link it to one of humanity's most ancient plagues and threaten the very heart of America. This is how it happened. Critic Reviews: "Elliott Garber's debut thriller The Chimera Sequence has everything I love in a novel: great characters, a thrill ride of an adventure, and a looming global menace. But best of all, the story hooked me from the first intriguing page to the last illuminating line. I can't wait to see what this guy writes next!" (James Rollins, New York Times bestseller of the The Sixth Extinction) "Elliott Garber has delivered a high-stakes thriller that will earn your attention with clean, clear prose and a solid grasp of global geopolitics. The Chimera Sequence is terrifyingly realistic, chock-full of research that rings as true as today's headlines." (Bob Mayer, former Green Beret and New York Times bestselling author) "I couldn't put down Garber's engaging, rapid-paced, action-packed thriller. His riveting first novel benefits greatly from his experience as an Army veterinarian who has worked with a variety of unlikely animals around the world. The book even features important appearances from a military dog, a Secret Service dog, and a tracker bloodhound. What's not to love?" (Maria Goodavage, New York Times bestselling author of Top Dog and Soldier Dogs) Members Reviews: Fast paced and gripping. The summary pretty much says it all so I'm getting right to my thoughts on this! I made a mistake in starting this at night because I ended up listening to it for a long time! It immediately grabbed my attention and I couldn't put it down! Everything about it captivated me and kept me glued to my earbuds. The plot of this is actually quiet believable! Initially I wasn't sure how Gorillas and virus mix but this worked, and worked well. It was detailed and explained in such a way that I had no qualms about it! It's also extremely fast paced and intense. Once you start, you won't want to put it aside!! There are quiet a few different characters but all are easily distinguishable and necessary. Cole is the MC as such and I loved him. I know that the author is a Vet himself and it really shows in the book.

When one of homeopath Carissa Lake's patients falls into an allergy-induced coma, possibly due to her prescribed remedy, Leland Fowler's office starts investigating the case. But Leland is also one of Carissa's patients, and he is beginning to realize that he has fallen in love with her. As love and legal obligations collide, Leland comes face-to-face with an ethical dilemma of enormous proportions. Graceful, intelligent, and suspenseful, The Law of Similars is a powerful examination of the links between hope and hubris, love and deception. Critic Reviews: "A fast, fascinating read...." (Denver Post) "Bohjalian seems to have hit his literary stride with Leland Fowler, whose voice is intimate, credible, and sure in illuminating the shadows of his soul.... Once opened, The Law of Similars is a hard book to put down." (The Boston Globe) "Bohjalian [has] a distinctive narrative voice, [an] artful hand with dialogue, and [a] disarming gift for taking the reader into his confidence." (Vermont Sunday Magazine) Members Reviews: An excellent read! I was totally enthralled with the characters and storyline. Kind of hoping for a sequel! The main character, although endearing, keeps making bad choices. We all know people in our own lives that do that. So that character becomes very lifelike and believable. It's the people not the story. Bohjalian's people always make a place for themselves in your heart. Maybe it's because most of us can see a little part of ourselves in one, or more, of them. They are flawed,ordinary, exceptionally human. I find I never think of them as characters, but always as people. And this makes what might be a commonplace plot extraordinary. Fabluous author I always love his books & he writes on such diverse topics, with a good knowledge of the topics. I am very involved in classical homeopathy, so this was of particular interest to me. I read it many years ago, when it first came out, but bought another copy to consider it as a book club recommendation. Poor character development Poor character development made this a mediocre story. I couldn't connect with any of the characters and so found it difficult to get into. There wasn't anyone to root for or despise. The premise was interesting, which is why I chose this book, but all in all, it was a long boring read. Another lost love and years of pining It seemed a rather contrived plot and did not hold my interest. An amazing 5-7 day love affair that results in years of pining seems a squandering of two lives.

The more Charlie learns, the more mysterious the missing David Simmons becomes. Could David have intentionally double-crossed his family, or is there a more sinister reason for his disappearance? Members Reviews: I like Charlie I started reading Connie Shelton's books because I grew up in New Mexico. I enjoy them because they are a little taste of home and the characters are likable. However, I found this book hard to get into, and I couldn't work up any enthusiasm for either the victims or the villain, unless annoyance is considered an "enthusiasm" I'll continue to read about Charlie, some plots are always going to be better than others. Read this series I love a series of mystery's. These are some of the best out there. Plain old good writing, pg13 rating. Love a clean read! Five Stars Another Great Connie Shelton book! Fun read Once again Ms. Shelton has written a marvelous book. I'm from nother New Mexico so I love how she incorporates the geography into her stories. On to her next book. Never get tired of reading this author. Obsessions can be murder Original stories and twisted plots. The author h pun Looking forward to the next book.

Violent Exposure Audiobook by Katherine Howell

Title: Violent Exposure Author: Katherine Howell Narrator: Caroline Lee Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 45 mins Language: English Release date: 02-24-11 Publisher: Bolinda Publishing Pty Ltd Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 54 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: When Suzanne Crawford is found stabbed to death and her husband Connor is discovered to be missing, it looks like just another tragic case of domestic violence to Detective Ella Marconi. But as the investigation progresses, it becomes clear that all is not as it seems. Why is there no record of Connor Crawford beyond a few years ago? Why has a teenager who worked for the pair gone missing too? And above all, what was the secret Suzanne knew Connor was keeping at all costs - even from her? As Ella begins to build a picture of the Crawfords' fractured lives, things around her are deteriorating. Her relationship with a fellow officer is hanging by a thread and her parents seem to be keeping secrets of their own. But Ella only has time for the job she loves, and she knows she has to see her way through the tangled web of deceit and lies to get at the truth - before it's too late. Members Reviews: Almost Perfect Murder Mystery/Detective Thriller Wow! I had forgotten how much I love this series. The combination of paramedic-turned-author Katherine Howell and seasoned (fellow Aussie) narrator extraordinaire Caroline Lee makes for a dynamite, can't-turn-it-off listen. You'll find yourself listening every chance you get, in and out of your car. I'd give this volume five stars across the board except for a few relatively minor quibbles: The author introduces an element of the paranormal midway through the book, and there were a few other other slightly implausible plot/story elements. The ending also seemed a tad rushed. Overall: Highly recommended, but if you haven't read Frantic, get that one first; this book is the sequel to that book. Loved it! Another excellent installment in the Detective Ella Marconi series by Katherine Howell. One of my favorites thus far! The pace is fast, never slowing from beginning to end. Taunt with suspense and anticipation and full of characters with depth, each portrayed with intricately detailed personalities. I loved all the separate stories that entwine together to form a complex plot that comes to a surprising conclusion but leaves tantalizing questions behind to be continued in the next book. I can't wait to see what happens next with all the paramedics, especially Mitch, and his wife Jo, and, of course, what will Ella be up against in her new case. This is an audio book narrated by Caroline Lee who made the personalities of the characters even more interesting by putting the finishing touches on each one with independent voices and emotions creating individuals who are even more vivid, vibrant, and realistic. By combining the creative writing of Katherine Howell and the colorful narration of Caroline Lee the end result is a story that jumps right off the pages! Love this series Love the series, this one is possibly a little more forgettable than the others, but still deals in some great themes, choices of conscious, and core cast that are mostly very good.

Gold M.D. Narrator: Laura Copland Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs Language: English Release date: 07-18-16 Publisher: GRASS VALLEY PUBLISHING Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 10 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Death at Brier Hospital is routine and provides the perfect opportunity to murder and get away with it. Jacob Weizman, a physician, and his wife, Lola, a psychotherapist, are Holocaust survivors and need no proof of evil in this world. Jacob and Lola are unique protagonists. They're octogenarians who take the fear out of getting old. Their intelligence, competence, humor, and sense of history make them appealing in a world that too often disdains the aged. After 55 years practicing medicine, Jacob is disappointed, but not surprised by several patients' deaths, even the unexpected ones. Soon, however, it becomes clear that a killer is stalking the halls of Brier Hospital targeting Jacob's patients. While Jacob has made enemies over the years, he finds it inconceivable that anyone would murder his patients for revenge. The killings mount even as the hospital and police increase security and pursue a vigorous investigation. Finally, unsatisfied with surrogates, the killer targets Jacob. Members Reviews: Much better than first book The first book by this author was poorly written, and the narration was terrible. This book has more substance, and I was relieved that it wasn't the same narrator. There were some times when this narrator's voice was overdone (particularly with the "old man" doctor), but overall it was OK. The story was interesting and kept my attention. The editing was apparently not the best...there were changes in tense and person that were sometimes very confusing. But, it was an interesting topic when you got down to the revelation of who was doing the murders and why. I will watch for more from this author to see how he progresses. Wonderfully told story Great story with interesting characters that captured my attention. The narrator did a great job with the different voices, my favorites were Jacob & Lola!

(c)+(p) 2009 Der Hörverlag Mitglieder Bewertungen: Schwächstes Buch vom Schätzing Die Story ist sehr verzweigt, beinhaltet sehr viele Personen die nicht wirklich nötig sind, aber auch nicht wirklich entwickelt werden. Schade, dass dieses interessante Konzept von der Qualität und dem Storytelling nicht an die Vorgänger "Der Schwarm" oder "lautlos" herankommt. Das Finale ist enttäuschend und leider sehr vorhersehbar. Als Schätzing Fan jedoch sicher wert zu lesen, auch in diesem Buch besticht der Author durch teils brilliante Wortwahl und sprachliches Geschick.

Patriot Deception Audiobook by Ross Elder

Title: Patriot Deception Subtitle: Mason McCall, Book 1 Author: Ross Elder Narrator: John Joseph Rogers Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 14 mins Language: English Release date: 06-20-17 Publisher: Ross Elder Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Inspired by Ross Elder's real investigation into Russian Active Measures directed at the Patriot Movement, Patriot Deception takes the listener on a suspenseful trek inside the fractured mind of Mason McCall. Investigating the effects of fake news, conspiracy theories, and Russian propaganda on the voting public, McCall finds himself embroiled in a search for the truth and a race to protect his own life. Members Reviews: Patriot Deception is a real page-turner I've known author Ross Elder for some time now and I've read his previous work and loved it. His writing style is quite engaging. Though this novel is a step above. This one is a real page-turner. I totally recommend Patriot Deception to my readers and anyone else. Elder can write and I'll keep an eye out for any new releases. Which I strongly recommend everyone read prior to this excellent novel I was so excited to hear about this book. I've read several of Mr. Elder's blog articles, including the non-fiction, investigative series by the same title...Which I strongly recommend everyone read prior to this excellent novel... I don't even know what people consider "spoilers", so I guess don't read my review because maybe I'll tell someone something they wish they'd got from the book...Seriously. Just stop here if you don't want it to be ruined: It's fun, unique, exciting, and absorbing. Read it. This was an absorbing, exciting introduction to what promises to be a fantastic series. I kind of thought of the main character's emergence from a coma as almost metaphorical for anyone who chooses to learn about the real "patriot deception"...a kind of awakening to what is really going on in what they believe to be patriotic, conservative "news" sources and current event coverage... The story of Mason McCall is also still emerging, as I feel this real patriot deception is...maybe I'm being too dramatic, but that's just how I saw it. I found myself totally absorbed and fascinated by this premise of the coma, how it came to be, and what he discovered about himself as he begins to heal and awaken... The constant feeling of being watched, followed, chased...or that Mason needs to escape but doesn't know why makes you squirm and read intensely to try to find out what is going to happen next..."edge of your seat"... As with the other work I've read of his, the story is peppered with Mr. Elder's dry and kind of dark humor, which I love. It also has some sexy stuff, which I also love. Although I didn't trust that nurse from the beginning. What nurse makes out with her patient the first night she is assigned to him??? Probably every man's dream nurse. hahaha! Details in writing are important to me. My favorite authors are great on including details but not dragging on and on...It seems Mr. Elder has found the perfect balance here. I really like the descriptions of everything from the "awakening", to the dual living quarters, to the characters. I especially love the details in the action scenes and violent scenes. But I don't find myself thinking, "I get it. Let's move on." as I have in other books. Maybe a little bit of, "Oh...I wish he spent more time there..." But not anything truly detracting or negative. All in all, this book made me anxious for the next installment in the series.

Despite the surgical team's best efforts, the patient succumbs to a rare anesthetic complication. Luke becomes perplexed, even suspicious, over their inability to save the woman. Is it possible that the diagnosis was wrong? Or, worse yet, was the diagnosis faked? Luke even wonders if his boss Dr. Katz is involved. Too busy with the rigors of a new job and his impending fatherhood, Luke is forced to put his suspicions on hold. When his wife Kim faces a C-section, his fears are reignited. Could there be a murderer, or murderers, operating in his hospital? Could his wife's obstetrician be involved? When the C-section goes horribly wrong, Luke must launch into action to save his wife and baby and expose a conspiracy he's uncovered in his hospital. Members Reviews: Convoluted Story Would you try another book from John Benedict and/or James Babbin? I really liked the reader, James Babbin, but the story was totally convoluted and improbable. The writer couldn't seem to decide what kind of a story this is.....a story of faith, a story of murder, or a Dan Brown wanna-be. Faith and murder can be joined, but it wasn't done well by this writer. Good Story - Bad performance I liked the story but the narration was an emotionless monotone. Hard to listen to. Heated heartbreak What made the experience of listening to Fatal Complications the most enjoyable? Listening to the story gave me extra time to do household chores that I did with much more enthusiasm than previously expected. What other book might you compare Fatal Complications to and why? It could be compared to any love and loss story, but this one has a twist. It tells of the way the mind can bend when emotional stress and despair are inflicted upon the human soul. It is a heart wrenching tale of making a deal with the Devil or to choosing to die rather than living without the desire of your heart. In the end the family unit is spared from any "fatal complications" and the author retired his story on a happy note. What about James Babbins performance did you like? James didn't rush through the reading and did slow down at appropriate areas to let the listener absorb what Dr. Benedict was saying to his readers. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? I did break the chapters up a little bit because it would have taken too long to hear the entire story in one day. Any additional comments? I look forward to Dr. Benedict's next book. He is a gifted writer and puts a lot of emotion and professional knowledge into his stories. His books are also very thought provoking and could be read on multiple levels, like Animal Farm. It could be read as a simple story, or as a professional read, or as a historical documentary of issues encountered in his career. He certainly puts his heart and soul into his books and he has an uncanny way of taking me on a roller roaster ride. Terrible This was the worst book I have ever listened to. The narrator spoke so slow I kept checking my speed. He was so boring, you couldn't even concentrate on the story.

A great adventure with an interesting plot and heroic characters. I am eagerly awaiting Kira Peikoff's next work! read this before you die a well-told tale brilliantly performed. this is especially good on audio. if you enjoy biotech thrillers this is one of the best. I highly recommend it. Fun Thriller, though lacks drama at times The mystery feels a little contrived at times and drama lacking, though I'm not sure if it's because of the performance or the writing. The performance is whiney at times which is grating and annoying as time goes on. I was waiting for the story to end far before it was over. That being said, I did stick with it. The mystery was compelling enough to warrant completion, though I would have liked to know more about the main mystery character that was never revealed. Still, I think Peikoff has promise and look forward to her next novel -- and hope the narration better than this. Loved it Great story, great characters pursuing real values. loved it. Compelling and exciting with unexpected twist. Edge of seat thriller. Loved every moment, she is a really promising writer and I look forward to her future works!

Title: The Lost Subtitle: Paula Maguire, Book 1 Author: Claire McGowan Narrator: Joanne King Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 1 min Language: English Release date: 04-13-13 Publisher: Headline Digital Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: The start of an exciting new series featuring forensic psychologist Paula Maguire. Not everyone who's missing is lost. When two teenage girls go missing along the Irish border, Paula Maguire has to return to the hometown she left years before. Swirling with rumour and secrets, the town is gripped by fear of a serial killer. But the truth could be even darker. Not everyone who's lost wants to be found. Surrounded by people and places she tried to forget, Paula digs into the cases as the truth twists further away. What's the link with two other disappearances from 1985? And why does everything lead back to the town's dark past - including the reasons her own mother went missing years before? Nothing is what it seems. As the shocking truth is revealed, Paula learns that sometimes, it's better not to find what you've lost. Critic Reviews: "Either Tana French and Michael Connelly secretly co-wrote this book, or Claire McGowan is a knockout new talent you should read immediately. I'm betting on the latter." (Lee Child) Members Reviews: Some good points, some less so I enjoyed the setting of this story and the insight into some of the complexities of a border town, heavy with history of the troubles. It also looks at the mindset of some of those communities with regard to teenage pregnancy, abortion and abuse... I do think that more could have been done with the story. It had the potential to be deep but spent a little too much time observing whether the men in the story had nice eyes or wanting to reach out and touch them. There was a little too much personal reflection on the MC's part which delved into the frankly immature (for someone who is supposedly at the top of her field). The narration was, at best, slightly irritating. The voice was all at the wrong pace, rushing where it shouldn't have and sounding more like a petulant teen (some of that is down to the actual words too) than a professional doctor of psychology. I have rated this fairly low as my main enjoyment came from the back story than the actual story. Again, loads of potential but it's not quite there, even the resolving of the mystery fell short, as if it hadn't quite been thought out. All Irish Problems in one go! I have to say I enjoyed the book but thought the author was trying too hard to include all well-kown irish problems: St. Magdalen's Laundries, forced adoptions to America, child-abuse, non-existent abortion possibilities, too strong influence of the church, Good Friday Agreement (and hence the "Price of Peace"). On top of that a troubled forensic psychologist with a murky past who comes back to a small town on the border to the South. Nevertheless I liked it. Maybe because it is so rare to listen to an audiobook narrated in a Northern Irish accent. What troubled me a bit was the out-dated language. Sorry, I haven't heard anyone speaking like that who wasn't at least 80. I appreciate that maybe in small secluded communities people still speak like this, but when used by a supposedly mid-thirties forensic psychologist who lived the last years in London it sounded unconvincing. The Lost Words What did you like best about The Lost? What did you like least? Best: It's fairly well written, easy to follow and visualise.

Fatal Intentions Audiobook by Belinda Frisch

Title: Fatal Intentions Subtitle: Paramedic Anneliese Ashmore Mysteries, Book 2 Author: Belinda Frisch Narrator: Julia Farmer Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 42 mins Language: English Release date: 03-29-16 Publisher: Belinda Frisch Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: A body washes up during the spring thaw with no definitive signs of drowning. Another turns up in a fire, deceased but not burned. Both victims have the identical injection marks that were the hallmark of the medical murders from one year ago, leading Sergeant Mike Richardson to believe this is the work of someone connected to the original case; but who? Paramedic Anneliese Ashmore and Dr. Jared Monroe both have means and motive, but only one of them is being framed. When yet a third victim goes missing, police are under pressure to secure a suspect. Fortunately, the killer has left a cleverly crafted trail to Ana and Jared's doorstep. When incriminating evidence lands one of them behind bars, it's up to the other to disprove the evidence without getting jailed in their place. As they get closer to identifying the killer, they're more likely to become a victim. With their freedom at stake, they face the dangerous fact that someone close to them has fatal intentions. The perfect mix of procedural, amateur sleuth, and romantic medical thriller, The Paramedic Anneliese Ashmore Mysteries will appeal to fans of Robin Cook, Patricia Cornwell, and Eileen Dreyer, keeping readers glued to the page as FATAL INTENTIONS, the follow-up novel to FATAL REACTION, takes revenge to a sexy, smart new level. Members Reviews: Poor Decisions and Misguided Actions There are so many things wrong in this story that I don't know where to begin. Belinda Frisch brings up several key plot points from the first book. That in itself isn't a problem. The problem is that I read it two years ago. It was confusing and annoying to have these vaguely remembered little tidbits inserted into the story. Ana's behavior toward her significant other, the cops inability to keep anything confidential, Ana's obvious denial of everything going on around her made her appear stupid. She was weak, needy and made rash decisions throughout the story. I rolled my eyes several times and fast forwarded several times. The final straw was that the author ended the book unresolved. Yes, we find out who the killer is but there is so much not answered. I'm not even sure I want to listen to the next book to find the answers. Especially if I have to wait two years for a conclusion.

Knife Music Audiobook by David Carnoy

Title: Knife Music Author: David Carnoy Narrator: Kristoffer Tabori Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 51 mins Language: English Release date: 07-08-10 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 49 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Kristen Kroiter was 16, a high-school sophomore, when she was injured in a car accident. Dr. Ted Cogan had saved her life when he treated her in the ER six months ago. But now police detectives were questioning Cogan about her, in intimate detail. What was going on? What had she told them? Thats just it, the cops said. She hadnt told them anything. She had died. Looked like a suicide. And Cogan was in a heap of trouble. Tense and twisting, Knife Music is the story of a doctor struggling to clear his name after being accused of raping and causing the suicide of a young girl. The novel pits Cogan, a 43-year-old surgeon and self-described womanizer, against Hank Madden, a handicapped veteran detective. From the outset its not clear who is victim and who is victimizer, as the usually dispassionate Madden grapples with his long-suppressed prejudices and his obsession with bringing Ted Cogan to justice at any cost. It all leads up to the most stunning surprise ending since Scott Turows Presumed Innocent. Critic Reviews: Carnoys debut is gripping, suspenseful, totally believableand shockingly good. (Harlan Coben, number-one New York Times best-selling author of Tell No One) Carnoy injects an uncommon level of medical expertiseinto his fine debut thrillerThe novel certainly works as medical drama, but it is also a gripping detective story and a revealing character study about what makes docs tickUtterly baffling until the very last page. (Booklist) Impressivesurprisingly complex and sophisticated. (ForeWord ) Members Reviews: Highs and Lows of Knife Music I really enjoyed the narrator of this book. He was a good strong reader, and was able to keep me entertained enough to keep going to the end. The book started out strong - it really kept my attention as the suspense and plot were building. However, the book became less interesting to me as it meandered through the various interviews with witnesses, and thoughts of the main character. It started to feel a bit pointless along the way. I did not give up on the book though (as I have with other audio books) because I really did want to know what happened in the end. I think this is a good author who should edit a bit more tightly the next time around. Terrific Listen This is a wonderful interpretation of human nature first by David Carnoy, then the interpretation of his interpretation that Kristoffer Tabori executes intriguingly. Odd thing here though. Normally in cop/mystery novels the villains are more complex than the protagonists... Not so here and Carnoy's created at least two of the latter. Okay, I wish that the bad dudes/dudettes were more than brush-stroked in from a list of things-that-make-killers-do-what-they-do... BUT... BUT... this read totally works. The Doc and the Cop both rock... and the continuing epilogue-like endings add hot layers of memory for the listener. A small warning though. Carnoy is NOT linear. He does not go chronologically at this story. Maybe that technique might work a tad better in print where the reader can drop back a couple of pages from time-to-time to stay oriented. Here you need to be alert as a reader and pay attention to the author's notations of time and date. After a while I found the technique interesting-making, but I wish someone had warned me in advance... Hope this will help you as you listen. How much did I like it? I've already downloaded the next in Carnoy novel.

Jan Eira Narrator: Roberto Scarlato Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 38 mins Language: English Release date: 05-28-15 Publisher: janeirabooks.com Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 13 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Imagine you, your spouse, and your 16-year-old son are invited to go out of town. When you get to your destination, you discover someone tricked you into going on the trip. If that wasn't bad enough, you soon realize your son was poisoned and there is no known antidote. Your child has 10 hours to live, 12 at most. This is exactly what happened to Dr. Amy Sinclair, a medical researcher from Zionsville, Indiana, after she was invited to deliver a medical lecture in Danville, Illinois. Still is the enthralling story of the lengths Amy and her husband go through to save the life of their only son. Still is extremely captivating, fast-paced, and full of twists. It grabs you from the first minute and doesn't let you go until you are finished. The best part of this story is its ending. It is strong, emotional, and very powerful. Besides that, it is nothing like you imagine it will be! If you love medical murder mysteries, Still is a must-listen! Members Reviews: EXCELLENT! LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT! If you could sum up Still in three words, what would they be? EXCELLENT THRILLING MYSTERY!!!! What was one of the most memorable moments of Still? When we got to know who the killer was finally...I never suspected!!! Which character as performed by Roberto Scarlato was your favorite? Ben! Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? Ben when he decided to sacrifice himself, he was very brave! Any additional comments? ** I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review ** I was drawn into this story from the very beginning...and did not want to put it down! Ben and Amy go on a weekend trip with there son Billy, not knowing it was all a setup....Billy ends up poisoned and is quickly dying and they can not figure out why! Well there is a mad man among them, and he has revenge on his mind...with little time the cops and Ben have to figure out who this killer is and how to save Billy...But will it be to late? Super exciting, and excellently narrated...I highly recommend!!!! Loved it! Narration - Roberto Scarlato - Pretty Good - Good range of character voices. LOVED his voice for the bad guy! So, I really enjoyed this story and the way it was told (even though at times it confused me). There are some flashbacks, and it switches to different characters and different storylines - but stick with it. For a bit, you'll be wondering why we are suddenly here and learning about this little story line and then all the sudden you find out why. I kind of like that style of writing - so many things that intertwine and you have to keep your wits about you as your reading/listening. I couldn't tell you if the medical talk was accurate or not, or if the police actions were realistic and believable. The ending could have used some more explaining - I could insert some spoiler material here, but I think I'll just leave it at that. It's a great listen! I received a copy of this audiobook free of charge from audiobookblast in exchange for an unbiased review Still a good book "This audiobook was provided by the author, narrator, or publisher at no cost in exchange for an unbiased review courtesy of AudiobookBlast dot com." I liked this book i did. It is maybe a bit short? 8 hrs and 38 mins is long, i get that. It just feels really short. That is maybe a good thing, but i am not sure to say it better then that i wish it was longer.

Gold Narrator: Craig R. Nickerson Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 36 mins Language: English Release date: 12-23-14 Publisher: Grass Valley Publishing Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 10 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: While medical students suspect that every headache is a brain tumor and that every chest pain is a heart attack, experienced physicians know diseases along a spectrum of horror-the ones they dread the most. Among these are cancer, Alzheimer's, stroke, diabetes, and ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). As the list continues, we come upon locked-in syndrome, a neurologic disease where a victim is awake and alert, but cannot move or communicate due to paralysis of all voluntary muscles in the body except for the eyes. In Trapped, a Brier Hospital Series novel by Lawrence W. Gold, M.D., the listener enters the neonatal and the adult intensive care units. Medical fiction works, not only due to its intrinsic drama, but because of the crucial ethical issues that arise, especially in intensive care. Lisa Cooke is the product of a passive mother and an abusive father. She finds her way into pediatric nursing, a world filled with men in control, especially the director of the Neonatal ICU, Mike Cooper. As Mike reminds Lisa of her father, it's no surprise that they don't get along. Ultimately, they fall in love and have a fulfilling marriage except that she's unable to have children. They try everything, but fail. When an automobile accident severely injures Mike, Lisa is devastated. Shortly afterward, she discovers that she's pregnant. Mike's injuries are life threatening, and he nearly dies on several occasions. Mike suffers from locked-in syndrome and his survival is constantly in jeopardy, as is Lisa's pregnancy. Will he/she/they survive? Members Reviews: Interesting I always enjoy a medical mystery. Makes even the doctors and nurses that take care of us appear human. Some times in person, they don't.

And as Jeffrey pursues the sadistic killer, he discovers that ex-police detective Lena Adams, now a security guard on campus, may be in possession of crucial information. But, bruised and angered by her expulsion from the force, Lena seems to be barely capable of protecting herself, let alone saving the next victim... Members Reviews: riveting again poor Lena, showing us how hard it is to say how you feel and the truth A winner As always slaughter does it again weaving the story to keep you rapt until the very end then leaving just enough to encourage your next read.

Gold MD Narrator: Leigh Townes Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 43 mins Language: English Release date: 06-16-15 Publisher: GRASS VALLEY PUBLISHING Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 12 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: When nature, in her ultimate act of irony, strikes Richard Powell, a cancer specialist, with malignant melanoma, a highly aggressive form of cancer, his wife, Terri devotes her life to curing the disease that ultimately kills her husband. While research laboratories are characterized as noble in search of cures, and proprietary drug companies are caricatured as ruthless and materialistic, too often, the distinctions aren't so clear. The murder of a drug courier to obtain an experimental and promising treatment for malignant melanoma, unleashes a chain of devastating consequences. People for Alternative Treatment, a company created to find cures for rare diseases, had fallen on hard times and become a subsidiary of Kendall Pharmaceuticals, a company with very different values. Experimentation with a vaccine against tuberculosis is showing surprising effects in controlling malignant melanoma at UC Medical Center. Kendall is enthralled with the economic potential of such a treatment, while researchers are leery and have many unanswered questions. Kendall's determination to push the vaccine into clinical trial at all costs is in conflict with Terri and her ethical associates. When clinical trials begin, the vaccine's effects are miraculous. Soon, however, we see the rule of unintended consequences. Members Reviews: A cure for cancer at what cost? What made the experience of listening to A Simple Cure the most enjoyable? It was interesting because we all hope for a cure to Cancer. What did you like best about this story? It was in part interesting because we would all like to think that the researchers of drugs are looking out for the patients best interest. I'd like to think that one day that they will find a drug that will boast out immune system enough to kill cancer with out having to use dangerous methods. What about Leigh Towness performance did you like? She made Terri believable and lovable. I don't think I've listened to anything by Leigh before but I would be willing to again after listening to this book. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? Just that I really could see a Pharmaceutical company not caring about the patients at all and only the bottom line. So I'd have to say that really is a bad thing. When people are just wanting to be able to beat something like cancer. It really wouldn't surprise me to hear in the news one day a real life story something like this. Any additional comments? I recommend this book as something very interesting to listen to. I was provided this audio book at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review via AudiobookBlast dot com Poor narration The subject matter was interesting for sure, however the story was a bit convoluted and didn't flow. More importantly, the narration was horrible, and I never feel that way. Mispronounced words, and overall unnatural diction.

The Dismantling Audiobook by Brian DeLeeuw

Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/389/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: The Dismantling Subtitle: A Novel Author: Brian DeLeeuw Narrator: Robbie Daymond Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 55 mins Language: English Release date: 04-28-15 Publisher: Penguin Audio Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 57 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: How much of yourself are you willing to sell? Brian DeLeeuw hits that sweet spot between literary and commercial suspense with his brilliantly adept, ingeniously plotted novel - a chilling, fast-paced drama that urges listeners to question the meaning of atonement and whether revenge might sometimes be the only way we can liberate ourselves from our past. Twenty-five-year-old med-school dropout Simon Worth is an organ broker, buying kidneys and livers from cash-strapped donors and selling them to recipients whose time on the waitlist is running out. When a seemingly straightforward liver transplant has an unexpectedly dangerous outcome, Simon finds himself on the run. In order to survive, he must put aside his better moral judgment and place his trust in a stranger who has a shocking secret. Critic Reviews: "With its high tension plot and atmosphere of unease, The Dismantling is a morally ambiguous thriller in the grand tradition of Graham Greene and Patricia Highsmith. It has smart things to say about memory, redemption, and what it's like to live in a world where everything is for sale, but it says them by telling a gripping story." (Christopher Beha, author of Arts & Entertainments) Members Reviews: Eloquent, gritty thriller. Terrific narration. I'm writing this review because the previous raters left only a few stars no explanation. The Dismantling deserves a written review because is something of a chimera. I don't know if I would call it "genre straddling"-- it's more like a thriller with a touch of realistic horror written with the craft of a fluent, artful writer. I took a risk on this book and was surprised by how well worth the credit it turned out to be. I listened to it in a few sittings, propelled by the brisk story development, riveting action, and delightful narration performance by Robbie Daymond. Fair warning, this book contains unflinching, graphic descriptions of medical procedures including an extensive blow by blow of a medical school cadaver dissection. These descriptions are not gratuitous, in fact, they add to the humanity of the struggles of the characters and provide symbolism for deterioration, exposure, and vulnerability in their lives and personal stories. The characters in this book are morally ambiguous, conflicted, and very real. Just as the vivid descriptions of violence, injury, and dissection may be too raw for some readers, so may be the behaviors and motivations of the characters.

Legends Can Be Murder Audiobook by Connie Shelton

Title: Legends Can Be Murder Subtitle: Charlie Parker Series, Book 15 Author: Connie Shelton Narrator: Rebecca Cook Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 21 mins Language: English Release date: 05-10-16 Publisher: Books in Motion Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 15 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Charlie Parker and her husband Drake Langston accept a job with Gold Trail Adventures in Skagway, Alaska, flying visitors by helicopter to remote cabin sites to experience the outdoor lifestyle and seek their fortunes. It isn't long before one of the guests finds a set of bones in an old mine, remains that date back decades. His hands full with present-day cases, police chief Sam Branson tells Charlie and her new reporter friend, Mina Gengler, that they are free to investigate. A second body is found, bringing up a lot of questions. Charlie gets a peek into the lives and times of Gold Rush-era Alaskans when she discovers a box of old letters written by one of the stampeders and begins to wonder if it's possible that the two bodies are connected? And why does it seem that someone in Skagway today doesn't want the women to dig for the truth? Members Reviews: Gold fever & 2 murders 70 years apart Here we have the fifteenth book in the Charlie Parker mystery series, by writer Connie Shelton. In this tale, Charlie and husband Drake have taken a temporary assignment in Skagway Alaska to fly tourists to mountain cabins, and resupply those modern day gold diggers during their weeklong adventure. In no time at all a family discovers not one but two dead bodies in a cave adjacent to their cabin. The discovery turns Charlie and Drake's sedate, working vacation helicopter assignment into something Charlie Parker knows even better than aviation: a murder case, and it's circuitous resolution. In this case, the solution takes Charlie back through time, even to the gold rush of 1898 when a certain Joshua Farmer allegedly `discovered' gold, and then inextricably vanished. Farmer's disappearance in the late nineteenth century is just one mystery wrapped inside another mystery in this well crafted book. Another is the fact that the second body appears to be of much more recent vintage, from around 1975. Shelton has really come into her own here. With masterful flashbacks, interwoven plot lines and fine use of characterizations, she's wrought an intriguing and fast-paced murder tale that changes directions, twists into blind alleys and back again faster than miners in a cave. The voices are constant throughout, characters true to their inflections, clues and leads hang together and overall the story is well presented and rewarding. It's obvious that Shelton has done her homework, as the names, dates, historical references and technical details make sense and fit. Even the atmosphere of Skagway Alaska comes across as chilly and forbidding, yet warm in human terms, and suffused with a certain charm that makes readers want to visit. By way of disclaimer, this reviewer is a former helicopter pilot by trade, so some of the critiques are based on that. There are references to flying that might have garnered more attention, such as the effect of weather in that part of the world, and the actual operation, loading, handling and delicacy of the machines, but those are items common readers don't need for the story to work. The romance between Chuey and Mina could have been explored a bit more, and Gerta's lack of recall about Mike Ratcliff was a stretch,(especially considering their lusty romp) but that's small potatoes.

Title: The Bone Bed Subtitle: Scarpetta, Book 20 Author: Patricia Cornwell Narrator: Lorelei King Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 53 mins Language: English Release date: 10-25-12 Publisher: Bolinda Publishing Pty Ltd. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 32 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: The new Kay Scarpetta novel from the world's number-one best-selling crime writer. In Alberta, Canada, an eminent paleontologist disappears from a dinosaur dig site, and at the Cambridge Forensic Center, Kay Scarpetta receives a grisly communication that gives her a dreadful reason to suspect this may become her next case. Then, with shocking speed, events begin to unfold. A body recovered from Boston Harbor reveals bizarre trace evidence hinting of a link to other unsolved cases that seem to have nothing in common. Who is behind all this? And whom can Scarpetta trust? Her lead investigator Pete Marino and FBI husband Benton Wesley are both unhappy with her because of personnel changes at the CFC, and her niece Lucy has become even more secretive than usual. Scarpetta fears she just may be on her own this time - against an enormously powerful and cunning enemy who seems impossible to defeat. Members Reviews: Average overall. Slow drawn out storyline with the usual frantic finish. Not the worst book in series. A good story.. usual Scarpetta.. I cannot fault this book, but I must be honest.. I was a little bored. maybe I've had too much of Kay Scarpetta.. blah, blah, blah..... I didn't finish it, but probably will go back t it once i'm over my boredom. If you are an avid Scarpetta fan, then by all means read this one! Read by speech recognition software???!!?? I have been a fan of Patricia Cornwell and the Scarpetta novels since they were first published, and have read them all. I joined audible and found the latest novel available, downloaded it and was quite looking forward to experiencing a tale with energy, character and complexity. Accepting that the book would not be in the internal voice that I am used to, when reading a paper copy, and having had some excellent experiences with audio books, I was raring to go. Getting used to the narrator took some time, the narrators tone was rather flat, although not to the point of being completely monotone and often seemed mechanical in the pronunciation. Apart from the voice changing to a more masculine tone for Pete Marino, the narration often led me to think I had switched on the narration function of my Kindle! The story lines were pretty weak, and predictable and crossover for explanation and linking poor. The finale - a disappointment. I wont be buying another audible Scarpetta novel, or anything else by Patricia Cornwell, as she seems tired and the book is lacklustre. I will also remember that narration by Lorelei King is definitely not for me. Cornwell back to her best! Enjoyed this audio book whilst on holiday in Turkey. Cornwell is definately back to her best in this gripper, Great plot, well written and had the depth I have missed in some of her more recent novels. Classic Cornwell Much better than other recent works by same author. Getting back to the quality of storytelling in her early books. Well narrated as usual by Lorelei King...

Title: Behind Prison Bars Subtitle: A Medical Thriller Author: Sandra Olson Narrator: Ayelet Sror Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 12 mins Language: English Release date: 11-09-15 Publisher: Sandra Olson Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 14 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Samantha Owens applied for the vacant position offered by the State of Texas prison officials for a Registered Nurse with obstetrical experience to work in their OB clinic. After her somewhat frightening orientation what she actually ended up working was the night shift position making her responsible for over 900 inmates in the women's correctional facility. Facing the challenges of triaging pregnant inmates and those with multiple medical issues was daunting and often dangerous during the minimally staffed night shift. For Amy Graham who was incarcerated for writing hot checks, the challenges ranged from simple embarrassment and loneliness to the horrors of being a relatively innocent victim of the dangerous women around her. Although this novel is a work of fiction and the characters' names have been changed to protect the author, Samantha Owens experiences are based on actual incidents that happened to the author when she worked as a nurse in a women's correctional facility. Members Reviews: Its frightening but this really COULD HAPPEN! I've always enjoyed medical thrillers but have never read one that took place in a women's prison before. It was interesting getting a glimpse into that world and gain an understanding of roles and risks that the people who work there face. I had never thought about how pregnancy and labor and birth are handled in a female prison population or even considered that there would need to be procedures around that possibility. The book will give you much to discuss is you enjoy debating medical ethics with your friends. It will also scare you as you realize how much trust is often given to those in medical 'authority.' The story was well developed and I felt like I would have recognized the characters if I met them on the street. The story built to a page-turning climax and then wrapped up with a feel-good ending. I did receive a copy in exchange for an honest review but even if I hadn't I would have recommended that you read or listen to this one! And..I was considering a minor foot surgery later this year but now... YIKES! Whoa!! I could see this happening today. Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? This is an easy listen. Starts gently by building a skeleton and then Sandra begins to flesh out the story. Good twists at just the right time. Simply a good story. What did you like best about this story? I liked that this could actually happen (and probably does) in the world today. I am a fan of old time radio shows (I love good story telling). This fits in well with what I like to listen to...just a good story. Have you listened to any of Ayelet Srors other performances before? How does this one compare? I had not listened to Ayelet yet. This is my first. Good pace, nice smooth voice. Her character voices are nice. Helps to follow the story and figure out what character is speaking. I look forward to more of her narration. If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be? Be careful of minor surgeries. A different kind of prison story Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not? Yes. The story was an interesting variation of the prison life Would you recommend Behind Prison Bars to your friends? Why or why not? Not sure.

The Italian authorities conclude the deaths were caused by a devastating and highly contagious virus. Tom Stewart, an NYU forensic archaeologist who was present when the deaths occurred, becomes entangled in the race to find the supply of the virus - a race involving many powerful players desperately seeking the deadly contagion. Stewart must find and destroy the virus before others harness its sinister power. The Vatican, foreign groups, the world's largest genetic seed manufacturer - all have their reasons, and none will stop until they succeed, no matter the cost or risk to millions of people if the virus escapes and causes a pandemic. Members Reviews: Mayans built Machu Picchu? Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not? No. I began to lose interest in the book after the comment about the Mayans building Machu Picchu....tell me, who was the editor of this book. What do you think your next listen will be? Something by Jennifer Hiller What does Edoardo Ballerini bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? I did enjoy his performance. It was apparent that he understood the characters as Hyland was trying to portray them. Could you see The Moses Virus being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be? No. Although the premise was good, it seemed to be written with the thought of it being made a movie. Book review Very well written, easy to follow, great story, loved the mysteriousness and intriguing reality base

Deadly Errors Audiobook by Allen Wyler

Chandler Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 29 mins Language: English Release date: 10-01-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 17 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: A comatose man is given a fatal dose of insulin in the emergency room, even though he isn't diabetic. An ulcer patient dies of shock after receiving a transfusion of the wrong blood type. A recovering heart patient receives a double dose of medication and suffers a fatal heart attack. Brain surgeon Dr. Tyler Matthews suspects that something is seriously wrong with the hospital's new "Med-InDx" computerized medical record system. But he doesn't suspect that there's something murderously wrong with it. As Matthews begins to peel back the layers of deception that cover the deadly errors, he crosses powerful corporate interests who aren't about to let their multi-billion dollar medical record profits evaporate. Now a target, Matthews finds himself trapped in a maze of deadly conspiracy, with his career, his marriage, and his very life on the line. Once again, Wyler blends his unparalleled expertise as a world class surgeon with his uncanny knack for suspense to create a true "best-of-breed" medical thriller. Deadly Errors is a lightning-quick action procedural that is destined to win new fans to the medical thriller genre. Editorial Reviews: When medical staff keeps accidentally murdering patients, Dr. Tyler Matthews realizes something is dangerously awry at the hospital. Thus begins this wild maze of a mystery. A neurosurgeon, author Allen Wyler knows just what he's doing with this fast-paced medical thriller. Meanwhile, A. T. Chandler's performance is spot-on. He uses his pacing like a doctor uses his scalpel: exactingly and effectively. He capitalizes on Wyler's built-in moments of suspense, making this audiobook a heightened version of an already heart-pounding novel. Members Reviews: could happen What did you love best about Deadly Errors? the ideal of a computer that could decrease human error Would you recommend Deadly Errors to your friends? Why or why not? would recommend it though the ending was not satisfactory to me, the evil men will do for money was a given but who is a friend or foe. bet your life on it. keeps you quessing and listening What does A. T. Chandler bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? emotions you felt you were there Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? no it was a good scary medical thriller Ok but the story was a little dissapointing.. What did you like best about Deadly Errors? What did you like least? The narrator is what I liked best.. the story is what I liked least. The explanation of what the book is about is a little misleading in my opinion. It concentrates more on the legalities of something like this happening, rather than the story line itself. Would you recommend Deadly Errors to your friends? Why or why not? No, wouldn't recommend Deadly Errors to friends because I didn't particularly enjoy it. Though I did manage to finish it, it wasn't the type of book that makes you want to keep listening to it. What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike? I thought the performance of the book was poor and was a little disappointing with the narrator. Chandler just seems to drone on and on in a lot of the parts which made one lose interest. Great book to fall asleep too! Was Deadly Errors worth the listening time? Yes, but mostly for the fact that I found it easy to fall asleep while listening to it.

Title: A Question of Identity Subtitle: Simon Serrailler, Book 7 Author: Susan Hill Narrator: Steven Pacey Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 31 mins Language: English Release date: 10-25-12 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 21 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Duchess of Cornwall Close: sheltered accommodation, a mix of bungalows and flats, newly built and not quite finished. Despite the bitterly cold weather, elderly residents are moving in. Then, one snowy night, an old lady is murdered - dragged from her bed and strangled with a length of flex. DCS Simon Serrailler and his team are aware of bizarre circumstances surrounding her death, but keep some details secret while they desperately search for a match. All they know is that the killer will strike again, and will once more leave the same tell-tale signature. Then Simon's former sergeant, the ever-cheerful Nathan Coates, tracks down a name: Alan Keyes. But Alan Keyes has no birth certificate, no address, no job, no family, no passport, and no dental records. Nothing. Alan Keyes does not exist. The seventh in the best-selling Simon Serrailler series, A Question of Identity is Susan Hill's most thrillingly imagined crime novel to date. Members Reviews: Thoroughly enjoyable read I've listened to all the Simon Serrailler crime novels and have thoroughly enjoyed them. Particularly gratifying is getting to know the characters in depth and following their travails as well as the crime in hand. To say that Steven Pacey 'narrates' the story is to do him an injustice. He makes the novel and all the characters come to life by adopting very different voices for all the main characters. So distinctive are they you know instantly who is speaking and can picture them in your mind's eye. Thoroughly recommend this series but you should start with Book 1 - I envy you the journey. Roll on Book 8 I have now listened to the 7 books in the Simon Serrailler series one after another - and can only hope that we will be treated to another instalment soon. Characters and plots that flow over from one book to another weave themselves into an overall picture that is much richer than the usual detective series. However small their part Susan Hill makes us care about, despair of or dislike every single character, no-one is wasted, and she tackles some very difficult social issues with delicacy rather than a sledgehammer. Unlike some reviewers I have found the standard has remained constant throughout the series both in terms of the writing and in the very excellent reading by Steven Pacey. It is hard to review any of these books without giving away the plot - but then the plot is really only part of the reason for listening. Thoroughly recommended. Excellent easy listening Good mix of detective and family storyline. Interesting twist. Very easy to listen to narrative voice. Start with Book1 What made the experience of listening to A Question of Identity the most enjoyable? Just being brought up to date with Simon, his love life and his family, with, once again, a very enjoyable story. Another great book Thoroughly enjoyed this book. Another good read in this series. The crime story was a good one, very gripping but what I love about these books is the ongoing stories of the Serrailer family. The characters are well written and I care deeply about what happens to them. The writing is clean, strong and active. The reader is excellent and brings the story to life, as usual. A great read.

Mindfield Audiobook by William Deverell

Title: Mindfield Author: William Deverell Narrator: Steve Scherf, Maggie Scherf Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 20 mins Language: English Release date: 12-26-13 Publisher: Steve Scherf Audiobooks Ratings: 2.5 of 5 out of 63 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: It is 20 below in Montreal, and for the first time in 25 years detective Kellen OReilly is going to pieces. Flashbacks frequently take him back to the psychiatric clinic of Coldhaven Manor and the terrifying experiments of Dr. Gregor Satorius. Members Reviews: Fantastic narration for a great story Any additional comments? Set against the backdrop of project MKUltra (a real program (1950-1973) that experimented with the behavioral engineering of humans by the CIA), Mindfield is the latest William Deverell novel brought to life by Steve and Maggie Scherf. Of the Deverell novels Ive listened to as audiobooks, this has been my favorite. First, the setting is Montreal in the 1970s, so listening to it was like a trip back to my youth. Second, it is a very well written book, engaging and satisfying. Finally it was very well read, making it easy and enjoyable to listen to. Mindfield is the story of Kellen OReilly, a Montreal Police Detective, and the flashbacks he has to a time when he volunteered for a program that he thought would help him deal with the death of his father, also a Montreal Police Officer (and give him a bit of money on the side). OReilly finds himself on a case that has ties back to this program, and his flashbacks increase in frequency. The story covers his journey back to his past where he finds the clues to unlock his current case, and mixes in the backdrop of a Police strike with a newly found love interest. OReilly not only has to confront his own demons, but also deals with the death of a close friend and the bureaucracy of an urban Police Department. The story is very well read by Steve and Maggie Scherf. The way that they bring the characters to life, and make it so easy to keep track of each character (and Mr. Deveralls novels always have a large cast of characters), make it a joy to listen to. If you havent been exposed to William Deverells novels before, this is a great place to start. If you are a fan of audiobooks you cant do better than listen to this one. Great book, fantastic narration, 5 stars. Mindfield What did you love best about Mindfield? I enjoyed the book very much. It was an interesting story that kept me engaged til the end. What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting? The idea of mind control by the government was most interesting, and least interesting was probably the setting for me. What does Steve Scherf and Maggie Scherf bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? A lot of audio books have one voice trying to become both male and female voices. Having both voices adds to the ability to understand the different characters. Any additional comments? It was an enjoyable book and easy to follow. Riveting Suspense Master Performance This tension filled thriller should be added to your Must Listen list. We loaded with eager anticipation the latest Deverell-Scherf book as part of our audio stock for a recent five-day road trip. It did not let us down. The plot twists and turns, fast pace and building suspense as the hunter became the hunted had us glued to our seats. Scherf is a performer extraordinaire not simply a narrator. The unique voice of each character conjures up a vivid image from the sinister Dr. Sartorius to sleazy thugs to a bureaucratic police chief to our hero - the Montreal cop Kellen OReilly.

In K.I.A., Dr. Kel McKelvey and his team at the U.S. Army's Identification Lab must determine if a body in a Vietnamese cemetery is that of Jimmy Lee Tenkiller, a soldier missing since 1970. But first, McKelvey will have to unravel the secret behind Tenkiller's murder. ©2008 Thomas Holland; (P)2009 Recorded Books, LLC Members Reviews: NCIS & Bones with a bit of Vietnam thrown In Thomas Holland's books grab me on a number of levels. First and foremost, they are good solid mysteries with the necessary twists and turns that keep you guessing. Second,they bring in forensic anthropology (Bones) and Military CID (NCIS), what's not to like? As inOne Drop of Blood, Holland uses the retrieval of a body from Vietnam and it's identification by the Army's Central Identification Lab in Hawaii as the springboard to solving a mystery that spans from the US war in Vietnam to murders in the present day. Anyone with knowlege of, or having ties to the military should find additional interest in this book. As a good mystery should, the who and the why are not completely solved until the last page. an excellent read and well put together an excellent read and well put together. Thomas Holland should write more books. Hope he has his next book in the "Ready" ok book Easier to follow that his first book(I felt like I needed to keep notes with that one, to keep track of the characters), but still too much story, and not enough forensics. intriguing mystery In Hawaii Dr. Robert Dean Keel McKinley knows his work as the director of the Department of the Army's Central Identification Laboratory can prove gruesome and depressing as he works with human remains identifying who he or she was. However, he also realizes how rewarding it is to provide closure for loved ones. Currently, he is frustrated with his ignorant bureaucratic supervisor Colonel Boschet who believes regulations and guides are constitutionally binding so when Kel gets a Vietnamese Era case, he jumps at the opportunity to escape from the imbecile "botch it". Native American Jimmy Lee Tenkiller vanished just before his tour of duty in Vietnam was to end; in 1984 he was declared KIA (Killed in Action); however apparently in 2007 his remains have just been handed over to American authorities by Vietnamese officials looking for further cooperation between the nations. Kel is assigned the task of determining if this is in deed Jimmy and if not who is the dead MIA. However, he soon finds much more than just an identification case as he realizes murderer is involved that he connects to a dishonest gang of former South Vietnamese officials who will kill anyone who threatens to expose their avaricious illegal dealings. KIA, the sequel to ONE DROP OF BLOOD (not read by this reviewer), is an intriguing mystery that focuses on the work of CIL to identify dead soldiers. However the fascination with this fine thriller is the look back at the strange relationship between the Johnson and Nixon administrations and the corrupt South Vietnamese government that echoes in Iraq today.

At first she resents being distracted from her lab work, but as she becomes immersed in the case, studying the forensic evidence, viewing the crime scenes, and piecing together the victims' last moments, Alex resolves to catch the killer. She knows it's only a matter of time before he leaves some evidence for Alex to trace back to him. But when another murder strikes closer to home for Alex and her colleagues, and her boyfriend, a congressman from Texas, it will take more than forensic science to keep them safe. With its spellbinding mix of suspense, forensics, and romance, Lori Andrews's debut novel signals the arrival of a powerful new writer on the crime fiction shelf. Critic Reviews: "The novel generates plenty of excitement and should be recommended to fans of forensic-based thrillers." (Booklist) Members Reviews: Thoughts of a nurse: First, I use "books on tape" to nurture myself and I listen every bedtime and when I'm on the road. Sequence held my interest so well that I went without sleep on two occasions. The main character is imperfect, has relationship difficulties, she will probably never have children, but she does exercise. She is a doctor and considered brilliant, although she often misses the obvious. I found myself wondering if she would make it to the end of the book. The story line was fresh to me, even if the science wasnt totally correct. The one thing I did not like was the gratuitous sexIm probably just a prude but, I have learned to fast-forward through her fun, sloppy, reckless encounters with the opposite sex. I am looking for to the next book by Lori B. Andrews.

Baden Narrator: Michele Santopietro Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 9 mins Language: English Release date: 06-16-09 Publisher: Random House Audio Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 10 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: The case begins with New York City on high alert for a most bizarre serial killer - a strange kind of thief who stalks his victims for the purpose of extracting a vial of blood, earning him the tabloid nickname the Vampire. As the attacks become more and more vicious and escalate to torture and then to murder, Jake and Manny begin to suspect there is a connection between the killer's seemingly random victims. But what is the link between the Vampire and a case that Manny's been working for a kid whose high school prank-gone-wrong has earned him the moniker the Preppy Terrorist and an FBI electronic ankle bracelet? Jake's careful forensic examinations, Manny's courtroom tenaciousness, and an unusual clue suggesting that a high-ranking politician has risen from the grave take the pair from the bowels of the morgue to the world of international intrigue. At the heart of this story is a tragic tale of corruption interlaced with cover-ups, conspiracies, death squads, and dictators who committed crimes that to this day go unpunished. A fast-paced, boldly imagined work from an exuberant new team in suspense. Members Reviews: Not For Me. I didn't like this book at all. It wasn't up to my standards for a thriller. I listened to this after reading a Michael Connelly and a Barry Eisler so it had to follow two tough acts. There just wasn't much suspense. The story had potential if the writing was just better. I kept thinking that this is what a Hardy Boys mystery would be like. And the overacting by the narrator was just over the top, almost comical. How dissapointing !! When HBO's Autopsy was on, I was glued to the TV. Dr. Baden comes across as eloquent, riveting and master of his art. Then comes this book, this awful, boring and silly book. Who cares about the fashion accesories, I wanted an interesting thriller, which unfortunately never materializes. With my deepest respect to Dr. Baden, he's may be a great scientist, but has a lot of learning to do as an author. skeleton justice At first i was getting ready to ditch this book as it goes into two different stories and you lose it a little,but after a while you see why and i am glad i persevered as it was a good story with lots of twists.

After two months of questions, Sara has attracted the attention of powerful people who don't want their secrets uncovered, and will go to any lengths to make sure they stay hidden. Now, time is running out for Sara to unravel the mystery before anyone else falls victim to the illness. And before her career, her family, and her freedom are taken from her by enemies she doesn't even know she has. Members Reviews: enjoyed good story very enjoyable Dreams Can be Dangerous! J.J. DeBenedetto has an extremely unique writing voice, so much so that you almost feel like you're living the story along with the characters. Writing in first person, present tense for the most part (except Sara's dreams), is not seen a lot and now I wonder why. It's very personal. In the case of the Dream books the reader feels extremely connected to Sara, the protagonist and dreamer. Even if you haven't read all nine books, the author writes enough backstory to fill in the gaps. In Fever Dream, Sara's strange ability to see other people's dreams seems to make her a magnet for trouble and this story had a fresh twist I didn't see coming merging two plot lines eventually. What medical anomaly is affecting Sara's patients at the tiny hospital she runs? The dreams weave in and out of the story, giving her clues, making her crazy and ultimately leading Sara down a slippery slope that you wouldn't think a small town doctor could survive. DeBenedetto's story is filled with familial anecdotes that counteract the paranormal aspect of Sara's dreaming, giving the reader an anchor as the story unwinds. Sara's children, parents, husband lead quiet lives, do family activities, have appointments, school meetings, are boringly normal as the matriarch of the family juggles a high-powered career and the enormity of seeing the future and past in her dreams. Between the suspenseful scenes, we welcome hearing how Brian makes dinner and puts the younger children to bed while Sara slips into a sexy nightgown to wait for him. It's life. Normal life. But with a twist. You don't need to buy into the paranormal aspect to enjoy these books. The author does such a sneaky job of inserting the supernatural into his books that by the time you finish reading Fever Dream, you won't even realize you've read a paranormal. Love this cover! Loved the book! Well done DeBenedetto! when your life and career are on line... When Sara loses Michael Marchetti, she is devastated. She can't figure out what he had to cause this and with all of the tests done, nothing makes sense. Sara starts digging to see if she can figure out what poor little Michael had. When his mother Connie gets sick as well and has similar symptoms, Sara tries everything she can do to save her. Luckily, Connie's regular doctor comes back from vacation and knows exactly what the problem is and treats Connie. With Connie on the mend, Sara wishes Dr. Ellison was here back in December so that Michael could have saved. Sara keeps dreaming about the Attorney General, Edgar Spinner. She can't figure out what is relevant with invading his dreams though.

When Richard Nottingham, Constable of Leeds, discovers his former housemaid murdered in a particularly sickening manner, his professional and personal lives move perilously close. Circumstances seem to conspire against him, and more murders follow. Soon the city fathers cast doubt on his capability, and he is forced to seek help from an unsavoury source. Not only does the murder investigation keep running into brick walls, and family problems offer an unwelcome distraction; he cant even track down a thief who has been a thorn in his side for months. When answers start to emerge, Nottingham gets more than he bargains for. Members Reviews: Historical Mystery Set in 1730 Leeds A man and a woman are found murdered in Leeds. The man is a non-conformist preacher brought in by a local merchant. The woman is a local prostitute who was once a main in the house of Richard Nottingham, the city Constable. Which was the intended victim? This is the beginning of an unexpectedly interesting story about life in Leeds England at a time when there was one law for the rich and one for the poor. Richard Nottingham who has had experience of both living rich and extremely poor stands between them, a servant to the masters of the city-- the wealthy merchants and aristocrats-- and both a threat and a protector to the counterfeiters, cutpurses and prostitutes that make up the lowest rank of those trying to get by. The historical detail feels authentic and by keeping his eye on the street life rather than the high life, the author conveys a sense of the life for most people in the early 18th century without romanticizing it. I figured the murderer out early in the book but found myself reading more for the story of the Constable and his Deputy than the mystery. I also enjoyed the narrator. His voice enhanced the story without descending into heavy local accents. Much more than just a good story My Review The Broken Token is the first book in the Richard Nottingham Mystery Series, Richard Nottingham is The Constable of Leeds, the year is 1731. There's a lot on this mans plate right now, apart from the never ending thieving, and drunken brawling, the officials have been on his back to find and arrest a "cut purse", a cunning and successful thief who had relieved many a gent of his money filled purse. Then came the first of the murders! The first few years of Richard Nottinghams life were spent living in a grand house, until his father discovered his wife had taken a lover. Convinced that Richard was not his son, he threw them both out onto the streets. In those days, married women forfeited everything to their husbands, she was left with nothing. Richard learned to scrounge for rotten left over food, and he learned to steal, they were forced to sleep wherever they could find shelter or on the streets. Such was the lot of the desperately poor. Somehow Richard survived to adulthood and found work as one of the constables men, eventually becoming the Constable of Leeds. This was his background, and was what made him appreciate his modest home, a warm and comfortable haven for his wife and two daughters.

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 17 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: When convicted killer Ronnie Joe Waddell is executed in Virginias electric chair, he becomes what should be a routine postmortem case for Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta. But after Waddells execution the murders continue, as everyone connected to him begins to die including members of Scarpettas staff. Then, when crucial records disappear from her files, Scarpetta comes under fire for incompetence. Caught in a web of political intrigue and betrayed by those she trusted, Scarpetta must fight to free herself from murderous insinuations and threats to her own life. To save her career, Scarpetta soon finds herself retracing Waddells bloody footprints, following a trail that might lead to long-hidden secrets deep within the state government. Either the truth will set her freeor unleash upon her a punishment both cruel and unusual. Members Reviews: Ultimately unsatisfying If you could sum up Cruel and Unusual in three words, what would they be? engaging, intriguing, disappointing What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting? Some fascinating twists. The main story wasn't as fascinating as the twists. Have you listened to any of Lorelei Kings other performances? How does this one compare? Yes. She is the voice of Scarpetta. I am not sure this book would be as good without her. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? There should/could have been, but there wasn't. Good! Although the narrator was in excellent form, Kay Scarpetta, to me, is terrific in her work; but awfully dull, in her social life. Patricia Cornwell does it again All I can say is that this is book is an excellent read, and Lorelei King makes the whole story come alive to the point that its like having a movie in your head. Will definitely be looking for more. easy story to follow its was a great listen, not too much techical computer terminology with lucy in the story so i could understand what had been done in the storyline. griping and thrilling a grate series intresting and enjoyable you get inviled with the people the whole series are well worth it

Title: Tainted Subtitle: A Dr. Zol Szabo Medical Mystery, Book 1 Author: Ross Pennie Narrator: P. J. Ochlan Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 47 mins Language: English Release date: 12-11-12 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 60 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: When incidents of food supply contamination dominate the news media, two investigators - Zol Szabo, a public health doctor, and Hamish Wakefield, a young infectious diseases specialist - come under immense pressure to find the cause of a mysterious epidemic before more victims show up on the autopsy table. In a race against the clock, the two doctors must navigate the treacherous political minefields of the medical community and the media while the disease spreads. The situation soon spins wildly out of control and more lives are threatened after a government-appointed investigator hijacks the investigation and allows his inflated ego to supersede common sense. Speaking to contemporary concerns about food safety, this fast-paced medical thriller illustrates the potential for disastrous consequences when total responsibility for food safety is placed in the hands of manufacturers and pharmaceutical companies. Members Reviews: Great book Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? I would recommend this book to just about anyone. The suspense about the source of the outbreak is built skillfully by the author. not a complete waste of time, quite Far from the worst medical thriller I've read/heard, this also is far from the best. I will say that it's the first time that having migraines for 35 years helped me figure out the culprit in a mystery thriller...not a real bonus, but what the hey. It had fairly good science, the characters were ok. I wish I could give the reader 2 1/2 stars; he did an okay job on most things, if not inspired, but he made the mistake of trying to give the South African character a South African accent...he fails. The woman sounds like an Aussie with a badly sprained tongue. I worked & socialized with several South Africans for 4 years, so I'm familiar with the accent & know it's one of the more difficult ones to try and imitate, but Ochlan would've been much better off to just not have tried. Sort of an underwhelming book, i didn't cringe too much listening to it (except when the SA woman was speaking), but it was rather forgettable. I doubt I'll listen to it again, unless I get desperate. Started Better than it Finished Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not? It was OK. The medical mystery aspect of it was interesting - I'm not sure if it's based on fact or even possibility but that didn't really matter to me. What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting? The various pursuits of commonalities among the victims of the disease was intriguing but the characters, for all their quirks, were thin. In general, it read like it was written using a computer program that cues the writer to put in various elements at the right time. Which scene was your favorite? I don't have a favorite scene, but the part where the hero and the woman he's in love with are almost killed by a villain was so formulaic. Seems like all the popular writers have to include something like that just before the mystery is solved. I generally skip over those scenes because to me they seem contrived. Could you see Tainted being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be? Sure it could be a movie.

As the mystery surrounding the death of Mickey's father unfolds, he soon learns that they may be in more danger than they could have ever imagined. Members Reviews: Teenagers save the day After a recent diet of heavy-weight biography and heart-rending realism an escapist novel like this was just the job. A pacy story, even if a bit far-fetched, as three teenagers get into extraordinary situations. I kept being reminded of Enid Blyton's Famous Five books of my childhood: youngsters free-ranging about the place with little adult supervision, exhibiting extraordinary resourcefulness and facing difficult moral dilemmas. The modern story is more complex and grittier with the teenagers in much greater danger, but the fantasy element is the same and enjoyable as such. There are plenty of twists and turns to keep one listening and the denouement was a surprise. The narrator does a good job. Childlike The worst HC book Ive read. Very poor story line and plot and really not worth the effort.... read shelter first! Would you try another book written by Harlan Coben or narrated by Eric Meyers? Continues straight after Shelter hence the abrupt ending so a virtual continuation so be sure to have both downloaded! Would you recommend Seconds Away to your friends? Why or why not? Good series of books Good fun Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? Great page turning fun from Coben. Enjoyed it a lot. What did you like best about this story? He never lets your guess about what might happen, be right. there's always a surprise. Which character as performed by Eric Meyers was your favourite? EMA (great performance by the way) Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? I wanted to but had to dip in and out, due to other time constraints. Unexciting Have read this book in hard copy and loved.... But this seemed lack lustre ... Rhytym was not there to build suspense

He was simply a man who, when faced with a puzzle, wanted to know. He was called to the investigative hunt by the presumptuous arrogance of murderers - by their smug belief that they could kill without leaving a trace. There was always a trace, Gurney believed. Except what if one day there wasn't? With Shut Your Eyes Tight, John Verdon delivers on the promise of his internationally best-selling debut, Think of a Number, creating a portrait of evil let loose across generations that is as rife with moments of touching humanity as it is with spellbinding images of perversity. Members Reviews: Never Shut Your Eyes This book had me from the start, the narration was fantastic. Dave is a retired NYPD cop with a history and one bad case where I presume he was nearly killed and he moved to the country with his 2nd wife Madeline. Dave has a son whom he seems estranged from and another son who died. Dave craves a bit more excitement than watching the asparagus grow. His wife seems quite content. Dave gets sucked into just one more case because of his talents for working out puzzels. I wont go into the storyline you can read it. He makes a lot of progress on the murders, many interesting characters twists and turns. He thinks nothing of letting his wife know his whereabouts etc., job comes first. Great suspenseful read. Top rating for a great reading of a gripping story Where does Shut Your Eyes Tight rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? I'm still new to this so its in my top two of my four books so far! What other book might you compare Shut Your Eyes Tight to and why? I took a chance on this, I'm new to detective stories, with the exception of Sherlock Holmes. I'm very glad I did as the story has been gripping, without being gruesome and enthralling for the duration. What about Jeff Hardings performance did you like? Very good at portraying the individual characters, if I missed a piece of narrative regarding a characters name, I found it easy to know who it was by the readers' voice. disturbing A disturbing crime but a great story, (although because of the narrator I kept expecting Jack Reacher to show up) A really enthralling detective story A well written and very enjoyable detective story. It was also well-read (American accent was fine). I haven't read any other books by this author but this story stands well on its own. i would certainly reccomend it. A tight twisted plot This is my first John Verdon book and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The main character Dave Gurney is a frustrated retired detective who needs to use his grey cells, but is torn between a gory case and his wife who wants him to stay at home and enjoy retirement. What starts as as one murder spirals into a sick twisted plot which brings danger to everyone involved. The book was well narrated by Jeff Harding with his gravelly voice and characterisation. and I would definitely recommend

Title: The Surgeon Author: Salman Waqar Narrator: Simon Blood DeVay Format: Unabridged Length: 2 hrs and 10 mins Language: English Release date: 02-02-17 Publisher: Salman Waqar/Blood Productions Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: A prominent politician, and close friend of the Prime Minister, has died during routine heart surgery. Is this simply a case of extreme medical negligence or are more complex events unfolding? The year is 2030. Advanced robotic systems are commonly utilized for surgery in the National Health Service. Mortality and complication rates are non-existent, even in operations that were once considered perilous. Join Professor Daniyaal Ashraf, a prominent surgeon, as he teams up with the General Medical Council, Scotland Yard and GCHQ to stop the culprit, before more innocent lives come to harm. His fast-paced journey will take you through a maze of medical fiction ground in scientific reality, leading to the inevitable debate about the future of medicine and the National Health Service. Members Reviews: A 'Factitious' WhoDunnit... What did you like most about The Surgeon? I loved how (very) near-future faction this is. These questions need posing and answering now. Not when we arrive at the scenarios described. Very thought provoking and quite unlike the jacket and title may suggest (for me this was a good thing). Who was your favorite character and why? Professor Ash, whilst Tanya is interesting, we only really get time enough in this novel to get to know Dan (Prof. Daniyaal Ashraf). Why? Because I truly hope he - or at least many like him - will be around to raise and face the issues this story brings to light. Which scene did you most enjoy? The A.I.'s view of the 3 Laws of Robotics. If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be? A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm... Any additional comments? What a voice! I've heard Mr DeVay before, but his style of delivery fits this exactly... His credible delivery comes in precisely the manner in which I'd wish to receive medical advice, instructions, news, etc. The Future is Here! Would you consider the audio edition of The Surgeon to be better than the print version? I don't know if "better" is appropriate. It's the old "apples & oranges" comparison dilemma... They're both fruits and yet completely different. It's unabridged; so, there's no lack of content and you can't read a book whilst driving a car. What was one of the most memorable moments of The Surgeon? -=! Spoiler Alert !=- the A.I.'s response to Asimov's 3 Laws... Which character as performed by Simon Blood DeVay was your favourite? Our protagonist, as it's not an ensemble piece. If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be? I Think, Therefore... Any additional comments? I found this really thought provoking. Advanced A.I.s are almost upon us and the issues raised in this fiction (it won't be fiction for long, I'm sure) must be faced/resolved before deus ex machine decides we're superfluous!...

Title: The Disappeared Subtitle: Coroner Jenny Cooper, Book 2 Author: Matthew Hall Narrator: Sian Thomas Format: Unabridged Length: 12 hrs and 25 mins Language: English Release date: 06-01-10 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Two young British students, Nazim Jamal and Rafi Hassan, vanish without a trace. The police tell their parents that the boys had been under surveillance, that it was likely they left the country to pursue their dangerous new ideals. Seven years later, Nazims grief-stricken mother is still unconvinced. Jenny Cooper is her last hope. Jenny is finally beginning to settle into her role as coroner for the Severn Valley; the ghosts of her past that threatened to topple her, banished to the sidelines once more. But as the inquest into Nazims disappearance gets underway, the stink of corruption and conspiracy becomes clear. Members Reviews: Not terribly original The story was serviceable enough but never fully engaged the must know what will happen next part of my brain because it seemed fairly obvious from the outset what the overall outcome would be. The set pieces that took place along the way, including those in the courtroom, were competently written but, for me, failed to surprise and felt too much like theyd been assembled from a few newspaper headlines rather than looking at any particular theme or idea in any depth. Issues like the treatment of Muslims after September 11 2001 and the reaction of western governments to the growth of extreme terrorism were given lip service which brought out nothing new or insightful and left me unfulfilled. The Disappeared isnt terrible but I just didnt find it very original or thought-provoking. Sian Thomas is a terrific narrator though. Im normally wary of narrators who choose to do foreign accents (they can border on the offensive) but it was well done here and at times the best thing about the fairly dull courtroom scenes. Nearly four stars I enjoyed the fact that the plot kept moving forward and it was nice to see a female as the lead character in a crime/thriller book for a change. It's a pity that she was such an irritating flake! The alcohol problems, drug problems, psychological problems, poor parenting, divorce, neediness, two-timing, constant self-analysis and navel-gazing made it hard to find anything with which I could empathise. Narration was brilliant though. Overall, a great listen let down by the fact that I hated the main character. First class and fascinating This is even better than 'The Coroner' and it might be a good idea to read that first. The plot is both exciting and interesting ? and you really want to read the next book. More importantly this is something of a campaigning book and author has some very pertinent points to make about the role of the coroner in modern British society. I will say no more for fear of spoiling the huge enjoyment of listening to this book. The reading is faultless. Gripping Hooked from intriguing start to brilliant finish. Never a dull moment with this talented author. Another gem Would you consider the audio edition of The Disappeared to be better than the print version? Since buying an iPod some years ago I don't read the printed versions of the books I have downloaded for listening, but have no doubt that the printed version is as excellent. What was one of the most memorable moments of The Disappeared? As usual it was when Jenny gets the truth. What about Sian Thomass performance did you like? Her interpretation of Jenny Cooper seems to be perfect so please do not change the narrator.

Members Reviews: Horrible I have a strong stomach for gory details, but this book made me want to vomit, I had to fast-forward my ipod over certain sections. There is gratuitous and almost pornographic focus on the worst kinds of violence. Steer clear, or read on an empty stomach. Karin Slaughters it again Love love love Karin Slaughter's books. Her characters are so likeable yet flawed. I am gripped from start to finish ever time. Genesis delivered once again.

The Last Precinct Audiobook by Patricia Cornwell

Title: The Last Precinct Author: Patricia Cornwell Narrator: Lorelei King Format: Unabridged Length: 15 hrs and 52 mins Language: English Release date: 01-21-05 Publisher: Bolinda Publishing Pty Ltd. Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 40 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Virginia's Chief Medical Examiner Kay Scarpetta is under suspicion and criminal investigation. And the nightmare perpetuated on Scarpetta's doorstep continues as she discovers that the so-called Werewolf murders may have extended to New York City and into the darkest corners of her past. Members Reviews: ENOUGH OF THE "WEREWOLF" ALREADY It is with mixed feelings that I write a review of a Patricia Cornwell book and give it less than a stellar rating. Unfortunately, in good conscience, I can't give this more than 3 stars. I even feel I'm being generous with that. The only reason it rates the 3 stars is that I'm giving a star to each of the main characters -- Kay, Lucy and Marino -- for showing up on these pages. This is the 11th book in the Kay Scarpetta series and, as an avid fan, I wait patiently for the newest arrival (which I have already preordered at Amazon of course). The day it is delivered, I put everything aside and delve right in. So, when I say I'm disappointed, this is truly coming from the heart. This is an absolute sequel to Black Notice and thus continues the storyline of Jean-Baptiste Chandonne, better known as Le Loup-Garou -- the "werewolf". In order to make this a stand alone book and for the benefit of those readers who haven't read Black Notice, Cornwell repeats everything we've already read in the previous book. This is fine and necessary for those who haven't read Black Notice. For those true fans who have already read this book, these constant reminders become redundant. I didn't like the werewolf storyline in Black Notice so I liked it even less as it continued in The Last Precinct. This book finds Kay recovering from wounds she suffered at the hands of Le Loup Garou, being analyzed to death by her friend and psychoanalyst Anna (150 pages of this), being accused of a crime that she didn't commit and spending the entire book being paranoid as to whom she can really trust. While I enjoy getting to understand Kay's inner psyche a little better, enough was enough after 75 pages of it. I made the mistake of reading this book one morning while eating breakfast. It didn't make for a great meal to be reading about the werewolf shedding all his fine blonde hairs all over the place while I was eating my bagel. YUK. I, for one, have had enough of Le Loup Garou but, unfortunately, it is evident in the end of this book that this story will be continuing in Cornwell's next book. I won't give up on my three favorite characters yet but I implore Cornwell to give her true fans a break and get back to the stories that made these books become bestsellers in the first place. By the time I read the last page, I was ready to head for The Last Precinct -- the place Cornwell describes as where you go when there is nowhere else to go -- or my own description -- where you go when you want to get away from this book. The last precint Being a Patricia Cornwell fan, the twists and turns of this book kept me completely attached to my head set. Love the csi research. Sincere What made the experience of listening to The Last Precinct the most enjoyable? The story was great and the reader (Lorelie King?) was an absolute perfect choice for reading this novel.

Speaking in Bones Audiobook by Kathy Reichs

Title: Speaking in Bones Author: Kathy Reichs Narrator: Katherine Browitz Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 58 mins Language: English Release date: 07-30-15 Publisher: Random House Audiobooks Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 11 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: The compelling new Dr. Temperance Brennan novel from the world-class forensic anthropologist and number one best-selling author Kathy Reichs. When forensic anthropologist Dr. Tempe Brennan is approached by amateur detective Hazel 'Lucky' Strike, at first she is inclined to dismiss the woman's claims that she's matched a previously unidentified set of remains with a name. But as the words of a terrified young woman echo round her office from an audio recorder found near where the bones were discovered, something about the story won't let Tempe go. As Tempe investigates further she finds herself involved in a case more complicated and horrifying than she could ever have imagined. Members Reviews: Woeful The plot is as believable as an episode of Scooby Doo. The main character is self-deluded on two counts: She sees herself as tough & able to handle danger; but she relies on men to make her feel safe, save her life & ultimately solve the case. She says she loves her boyfriend, but that's a straight lie. The boyfriend is a pure flight of fancy: no man would put up with this lack of affection, humour, concern, love, romance. He must be an imaginary friend. & finally the prose - is risible. Here are 3 examples: Ramsey shook with the priest. I hit the ladies', bought a diet coke and filled my tank. My id toggled home another data byte. Almost the worst book I've ever read. excellent all round - story and narration good pace, good plot and excellent narration - which is usually the let down for audio books. will definitely buy more of Kathy's books Narration poor What did you like most about Speaking in Bones? The usual Kathy Reichs intrigue and tight plot and of course the complexities of forensic pathology - very addictive! What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike? Unfortunately the performance (reader Katherine Borowitz) was not up to her usual standard. So much so that it made me wonder if the actual production was flawed. The voice fluctuated as though everything was slowing down one moment then speeding up. Perhaps audible can let me know if there was any issues with the audio production? Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? Kathy Reichs unabridged cannot usually be completed in one sitting. This one will probably be completed in two. Any additional comments? I am addicted to forensic pathology particularly that of Kathy Reichs. Tempe relates through audio books and obviously the Bones series on TV. Hopefully she will never run out of stories. Due to the flawed performance Speaking in Bones was a a let down and a disapointment to listen to. Couldn't Get Past Chapter 1 The dramatisation of the first chapter is awful. couldn't bear to listen to any more. Buy the book! Great read Another excellent book by Kathy Reichs well read and great ending can't wait for the next one

Title: Christine Falls Author: Benjamin Black Narrator: Timothy Dalton Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 37 mins Language: English Release date: 04-06-09 Publisher: Pan Macmillan Publishers Ltd. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 21 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Quirke's pathology department, set deep beneath the city, is his own gloomy realm: always quiet, always night, and always under his control. Until late one evening after a party he stumbles across a body that should not be there - and his brother-in-law falsifying the corpse's cause of death. This is the first time Quirke has encountered Christine Falls, but the investigation he decides to lead into the way she lived and died uncovers a dark secret at the heart of Dublin's high Catholic network; one with the power to shake his own family and everything he holds dear. Critic Reviews: "A superb stylist . . . His control and pacing cannot be faulted, and the final outcome is almost unbearably moving . . .You're in for a treat." (Michael Dibdin, Guardian) "Succeeds sensationally . . . An absorbing plot, beguiling characters and evocative settings . . . His pacing is impeccable." (Marcel Berlins, The Times) Members Reviews: it falls What disappointed you about Christine Falls? the narrator should keep to movies his mono log voice is boring 2 chapters was enough What was most disappointing about Benjamin Blacks story? timothy dalton although the story is slow How could the performance have been better? a better reader that could bring characters to life What character would you cut from Christine Falls? didn,t get that far Good introduction to audible books Where does Christine Falls rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? First audible book ever downloaded so difficult to compare. What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!) Enough suspense to keep listening in one breath What about Timothy Daltons performance did you like? Mr. Dalton's voice was the main reason for choosing the book. I think the narrator has a great voice and I was not deceived. And much better listening to Dalton's reading a good book than watching him perform well in some crappy B films scrips. What I particularly like is the depth and range of tone, compared to some of the samples of other narrators I am listening to now which are by comparison so flat. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? The changing relation between father and daughter Any additional comments? I only wish there were more good books narrated by Mr. Dalton More than just a crime story Whilst this took a while to get into it is a fascinating insight into guilt, lust, greed, love and the fear of the final retribution. If you like more than who done and enjoy why done it you will love this. The historical background plays well and reminds you how far we have come. Not yet perfect I agree but makes one less inclined to moan about the lot of women and children who fall out of a well rounded nuclear family. After this book keeping family secrets will seem an even more perilous idea. Having been brought up in convent the facts and the thinking behind those facts rang true. Take time for this thought provoking audio book. However, beware you have at least empathy if not sympathy for even the most un-likeable of this strong cast of seeming saints and apparent villains, who make you take a second look in the mirror. A Superbly Stylish Novel Although recently listed as one of '50 Thriller Writers to Read Before You Die' , this will disappoint any reader looking for the traditional puzzling tale littered with bodies.

A young nurse's body is found at Clovelly Beach in Sydney's eastern suburbs. Apart from a puncture wound in her neck, she is in perfect condition. But she's also clutching a rose in her hands - and there's an empty packet of prescription drugs in her pocket. Investigating the scene, Detective Lexie Rogers and her partner Brad Sommers know something is not right. It appears to be a staged suicide. And as they begin to dig deeper, Lexie discovers the case is too close to home. The dead girl was a work colleague of Lexie's ex-husband, who is now a paramedic - and she was also a friend of the woman who broke up Lexie's marriage. Struggling as she is with her breakup with Josh Harrison, who pushed her away after the suicide of his sister, and the numbing flashbacks of the violent attacks she's suffered in the past, Lexie throws herself into the case. When she's handed the lead on the investigation, Lexie sets out to solve the murder and prove she's up to the job. When Lexie's ex-husband becomes a suspect, she refuses to believe it. It also becomes startlingly clear there are similarities in the deaths of Josh's sister and the murder victim. But when Lexie determines a link between the women and a doctor working at the same hospital, he becomes her main suspect, fuelled by her discovery of a prescription drug racket. Just when Lexie is beginning to make headway on the case, Josh turns up. He's determined to find out what happened to his sister - and he also wants Lexie back. Piecing together the identity of the killer with the help of her old bikie friend, Rex Donaldson, Lexie and her colleagues set a trap in an ambitious police operation. But there's a big difference between naming a suspect and catching a killer.... Members Reviews: Just a spectacular book. I hope there will a third I've been introduced to quite a few Australian authors who write crime mystery/suspense, and psychological suspense/thrillers. [author:Karen M. Davis|7082717] is one such author. This is the 2nd book in the Lexi Rogers series following [book:Sinister Intent|17901258], set in Australia. I own both in audio book format and just absolutely loved them! Just a spectacular book. I hope there will a third! I love Lexi and her colleagues! They are all so realistic, well defined, and personable. The plot is interesting, complicated, but still very plausible. [author:Karen M. Davis|7082717] expertly combines the relationships between the characters together with the main story line making them inseparable, creating a great deal of suspense. There are plenty of surprising twists and turns! Even though the case is decidedly solved in the end, there are tantalizing tidbits left open for another book in the series. [author:Kate Hosking|2441438], the narrator, was just brilliant! With Australian words and phrases written by Karen and the voice of Kate's seemingly natural, native Aussie accent made it especially enjoyable for me. I highly recommend the audio book format!

Dr. Harry Corbett is engaged in a life-and-death battle of wits with a chillingly efficient monster. And until this monster is unmasked, no patient is safe from his lethal silent treatment. Members Reviews: Great page Turner! A really well-developed story that catches your interest and makes the book hard to put down. The writer's medical background enhances the story and characters, making all that much more believable. The suspense builds slowly for a while and then the action starts, leading to a super crescendo. Great as usual The characters are lovable, the detective hateable. Lots of twists and turns. I'm never disappointed in Michael's books. Always awaiting the next one Good story As expected from Michael Palmer. Very good plotting, somewhat believable characters. Sometimes it makes you think what were these people thinking? Terrific mystery! This story is fast-paced and is a fascinating page turner. As it develops, the main characters leap off the page and become more real. The twists and turns are swift and shocking, leaving this reader to take a deep breath before moving on from one swift plot maneuver to the next. I recommend this book highly. Good read Great story. Keeps you interested and reading. Not too much filler. Michael Palmer is a great story teller. Going to watch for his next book.

He has the power of digital data and the potential for revolutionary cures at his fingertips, until a paralyzing family tragedy shatters his dreams. The only way to restart his promising career - and revive his marriage - is to step away. A temporary position at BioloGen Pharmaceuticals offers refuge. His charge is to convince other doctors that the billion dollar blockbuster drug Anginex, in the final stages of testing, is both safe and effective. He quickly learns otherwise. He is soon forced to choose between the drug company with a promising cancer cure and an FBI informant with his own version of the truth. Now Mackie must do whatever it takes to get out of harm's way before the story breaks - because billion-dollar drugs don't go down without a fight. Members Reviews: Russell is onto something here! If you could sum up Control Group in three words, what would they be? realistic, fast-paced, medical What was one of the most memorable moments of Control Group? when Mackie talked to the reporter to leak information and then having to be "none the wiser" to everyone else about his involvement at Biologen... well played Mackie What about Stephen Russells performance did you like? i loved all his different voices for the characters. It's always great to hear a book read by the actual author! If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be? You may want to think before taking that pill for your ill.... it could kill you Any additional comments? This was such a well thought out and delivered medical thriller! Very realistic (hopefully not the murdering of study patients) and made me really think about how much Big Pharma does play a role in modern medicine. While this fictionalization makes a great story, there are many innuendos that I have been left to ponder over..... great story, bad narrator made it hard to listen. narrator was fake, talked in a feminine voice and made it hard to listen. the story is wonderful so I tried to get over the narrator to finish the story. great suspense and storyline.

Kieran Kelly's world turns upside down when his wife's health is devastated by an epidural in childbirth. Incensed by damning evidence of medical and pharmaceutical misconduct, the tormented former IRA hit man plots revenge against those he deems responsible, including a government that doesn't seem to care. Kelly's quest brings him face-to-face with an alcoholic physician, an altruistic scientist, and a corrupt government minister - but not before the love of a stunningly beautiful but crippled countess makes him question his motives. He meets Countess Magda von Esterhazy at a meeting of a self-help group for victims of the uniquely painful iatrogenic (doctor-caused) disease that struck down his wife. Magda awakens feelings that he thought he had lost forever. Meanwhile, one of Kelly's targets, scientist Jonathan Tring, finds himself embroiled in the Machiavellian machinations of his boss, the gruff and corrupt owner of a pharmaceutical company, and the man's stunning young American wife. In all the mayhem, Tring, too, finds love - and desperately wants to live to enjoy it. Cry of the Needle is a searing tale of love and vengeance. Revenge is a dish best served Irish. Members Reviews: Evils of Malpractice Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? Cry of the Needle is a great story which holds your attention from the beginning to the shocking ending. What was one of the most memorable moments of Cry of the Needle? A play-by -play of hostage negotiations, British style Have you listened to any of Nigel Pattersons other performances before? How does this one compare? Nigel Patterson is prominent in my audio library because of his amazing talent. In this book he portrays an Irish rogue, a Southern Belle, a Welshman and several English characters. He is truly amazing. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? The love the Irishman had for his wife and children is very moving. He is willing to die to avenge the wrong that ruined his family. Any additional comments? Don't hesitate to listen to this wonderful story about love, the pharmaceutical industry and the power of money. Well worth your time. Great thriller Great story well written well narrated. I have it a 4 do to the excessive sexual content. It made it so that I could not listen to it in the car around my kids. The characters and the story were captivating the scenarios had a gritty realism that kept you hooked. The message was clear good and powerful. I received this audiobook from the author narrator or publisher for free via audiobookboom in exchange for an unbiased review Compelling and Engaging!!! Where does Cry of the Needle rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? Out of the 250+ books I have purchased ... Cry of the Needle would rank in the top 20 because of the storyline and the possibility that this could really and probably has happened. What did you like best about this story? I liked the fact that the storyline is complex enough that it made me want to listen to see what would happen but not so complex that I got frustrated with it.

The post mortem reveals that the woman was stabbed before the fire was started, but while Scarpetta and her colleagues are puzzling over means and motive, they are called out to the scene of another fire and another murder. The pattern is the same, the answers as elusive, and then Benton disappears while following up a tip-off. With appalling clarity, Scarpetta sees that Carrie has set up a scenario in which she can manipulate them all - and in which she appears to have the lethal upper hand. Critic Reviews: "Imitators abound but, pathologically speaking, nobody does it like Cornwell." (Literary Review) "The pathology is fascinating, as is the sinister atmosphere generated by Cornwell's cruel prose." (Harpers and Queen) Members Reviews: 8/10 I enjoyed the story but always felt narrator underacted the part. I always believe Scarpetta to be a much stronger personality when in her workplace. Her weaknesses only to those she had an emotional bond. Point of Origin: Kay Scarpetta, Book 9 I have most of these books on CD and thoroughly enjoy them all. They keep you rivetted from the opening lines. I don't always get the baddy from the beginning, which makes it more interesting for me.

Joseph Fenaughty Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 54 mins Language: English Release date: 11-24-14 Publisher: Elena E. Giorgi Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 15 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: A Readers' Favorite Book Award Winner! Haunted by the girl he couldn't save in his youth, and the murder he committed to avenge her, Detective Track Presius has a unique gift: the vision and sense of smell of a predator. When a series of apparently unrelated murders reel him into the depths of genetic research, Track feels more than a call to duty. Children are dying - children who, like himself, could have been healthy, and yet something, at some point, went terribly wrong. For Track, saving the innocent becomes a quest for redemption. The only way he can come to terms with his dark past is to understand his true nature. Members Reviews: Awesome story What made the experience of listening to Chimeras the most enjoyable? I love audiobooks and as long as the reader is good they can make almost any story sound good ( no need in this case as this was awesome on it's own). But just having a nice voice read you a awesome story when you can't always read yourself is a wonderful experience. What does D. Joseph Fenaughty bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? Miss pronounced words. I lived in SoCal for 20 something years and it was quickly apparent that he was not from anywhere near there. But other than my chuckles at those his narration was very good and kept my interest. Any additional comments? This book is great the facts and procedures are pretty spot on. The research must have been daunting but worth the time as I am sure there are many others like me that would actually go check on these things. Can not wait for more books in the series, go Track, Good story but I couldn't follow the narrator. Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not? I listened to half of the book, but the unexpected pauses and phrasing of sentences by the narrator prevented continuing. I finished the book on Kindle. E. E. Giorgi is pleasantly expressive with scenes, aromas and character traits. Her sentences need to flow uninterrupted to form the images in the story. D. Joseph Fenaughty narrates with pauses where there are no commas or other phrase structure. At times, too frequently, he emphasizes an unexpected word in a sentence that redirects the visual image being formed by the sentence. In one sentence describing people leaving a tennis court he says, "...a blond (pause) and tanned couple..." Now in my mind I had already pictured a lone blonde woman but after the pause I'm left pondering was it a single blond woman and a tanned couple or was it a blond and tanned couple. Of course it was the latter, but my train of thought was interrupted. This happened in almost every paragraph. Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How? The plot was very good, intriguing and kept me engaged through the book. A unique slant on techno/science fiction mystery written by an expert in her field. It's still techno-babble but it is believable techno-babble that enhances rather than complicates the plot. That's techno-babble to the layman, no disrespect intended. Would you be willing to try another one of D. Joseph Fenaughtys performances? I would have to sample it first to see if this performance was just his interpretation of this character.

Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 36 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: In Suture Self, Judith McMonigle Flynn is scheduled for a hip replacement. Instead of looking ahead to her new mobility, she's worried. "Routine surgery" recently cost a local actress and a star baseball pitcher their lives. Though Judith smells malice, she successfully survives her operation - but another patient isn't so lucky. Stuck in this chamber of Hippocratic horrors, Judith feels compelled to get to the bottom of what could be the worst malpractice case ever recorded...or perhaps something much more sinister. The worst diagnosis of all is the one that suggests Judith's curiosity is terminal...and that a killer is saving a last lethal dose of medicine for her. Critic Reviews: "Anna Fields performs a top-notch interpretation; she presents this quirky tale with precise yet soothing diction that immerses the listener in the events." (AudioFile) Members Reviews: Radical personality changes I really enjoyed the first half of this book. The quirky, humorous main characters, 2 cousins, were very enjoyable. Unfortunately, about halfway through, the personalities of these 2 women completely changed. I hoped it was just a plot twist. But unfortunately it wasn't. Inexplicably the 2 feisty women suddenly became passive, clueless, and uninteresting. A great mystery - not a good reader If you could sum up Suture Self in three words, what would they be? Fun. Dangerous. Entertaining. What was one of the most memorable moments of Suture Self? When Judith and Rene realize what's going on at the hospital. How did the narrator detract from the book? A lot. I enjoyed the previous book I listened to of Mary Daheim, but it was a different narrator. This narrator's voices were not good. The main character's husband who supposedly lives in the Pacfic Northwest, sounded like George W. Bush. I won't buy one she reads again. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? As usual with the B&B series, it was entertaining, dangerous and fun. Any additional comments? I hope you put more of the B&B series on audible, but please use a different narrator. Everyone sounded like a man with a hoarse throat.

For Kay Scarpetta, however, it is about to have a new meaning. She moves to South Carolina in the hope of a quieter life, but then a series of violent murders begins. Members Reviews: Long slow painful read I usually love PC's books. I haven't read one in while but this one came up on Book Bub so I bought thinking it would be a good read. Honestly I had trouble following the plot, and it was slooooooow. I'm glad if I finished it, but I may hold off reading anymore for a while. I miss the action packed pace of her earlier books. Another great Scapetta novel What happens in Charlotte does not stay in Charlotte. There are many twists and turns in this novel. If you are a Kay fan, you will figure a few of them out. Then comes a new twist and the end is not exactly what you expected. The characters are as real as ever. Maybe the worst book I ever read Meandering plot Reluctant to give it one star ! Maybe the worst book I ever read Meandering plot. A plethora of scientific jargon interspersed with appalling dialogue eg "lets don`t do it" and ,"lets don`t argue " (this spoken by supposedly highly educated people) and........my favourite inanity....`The mountains looked like they weren`t there !!!!!!!!! No more Cornwell for me. If I want to see the English language savaged, I`ll read the `funnies` Another Greatread I really like Patricia Cornwell. I also love her character, Dr. Kay Scarpetta, her niece, and her fiance in this book who later becomes her husband. She has all sorts of characters in this one. Not all good but still a very interesting story. Best Scarpetta Novel in some time Her novels get more and more cryptic over the years. Thereâs so much dialogue with very little description of the people and their expressions. We have to deduce and infer things just based on the words. Still, this had more exposition and more plot and I thought didnât have some of the outrageous leaps that sheâs had in the past.

Title: Yellow Zone Subtitle: A Journal Documentation of the End of America Author: Jacqueline Druga Narrator: David Dietz Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 51 mins Language: English Release date: 04-01-15 Publisher: Jacqueline Druga Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 17 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: On a late spring day, the United States of America is hit with a biological terror attack that brings the nation to her knees. The virus is deadly and highly contagious. It spreads like wildfire, infecting, and killing almost everyone it hits. In order to prevent the worldwide spread of the disease and for the preservation of all mankind, the United States of America is shut down. Quarantined from and by the rest of the world for a period of five years or until a cure is found. In the interest of the human race, those who remain inside the isolated United States are forgotten and left to fend for themselves until the quarantine is lifted. This is a journal documentation of just a few of those survivors, those abandoned and left behind to witness the end of the once Greatest Nation in the World, the United States of America. Members Reviews: Amazing narration!! I was a bit hesitant upon starting this because the reviews vary, but to be honest, I really enjoyed it! I think the narration helped with that a lot because David Dietz was amazing! Let's talk about the narrator first, because he is seriously the best thing about the book! I have never listened to a male narrator that was able to pull off a female voice properly, that is, until this book! He did an amazing female voice and at the start, I had to go back and see were there 2 narrators. He was excellent in all the tones and voices he did and it felt like a full cast were telling the story!! Now onto the story itself. I loved the journal entries! It really brought a feeling of uniqueness to the genre and added a little extra to the book. The story starts with a virus being intentionally unleashed inside JFK airport. The virus rapidly spreads despite quarantines in place. Most people die but some are immune and more are carriers. These carries are being rounded up and branded. They are taken to carrier camps to live but in one such camp is the author of the journals we are reading. She finds out that the government plan to eradicate all carriers so that the US can start again with no fear of the virus. Thus begins a journey of survival. There is a lot to like about this book. The way it's written in journal form is one! We don't just see one POV but at times others write in the journal and tell their story. The carrier idea is another! Usually we see the virus killing people and all that's left are the survivours, but here we have the extra complication of carriers! It was a unique and brilliant addition. I also liked that this focuses on one womans life and what happens to her and her loved ones. In all, I enjoyed this Post Apocalyptic book. It was fairly fast paced and entertaining. The plot was believable and engaging and the book held my attention. As I said already, the narrator helped a lot with this book and I can;t recommend his work enough!! If you like this type of book then it's worth a listen. Enjoyed it for the narration. What did you love best about Yellow Zone? I listened to the narration done by David Dietz. There is a good chance I wouldn't have enjoyed this book as much as I did if I had read the book instead. The reviews are hit or miss about the editing for the text. Listening though allowed me to just sit back and enjoy the ride. It was an interesting take on the epidemic genre.

Caitlyn Tierney and Jake Carver just took me on a wild and terrifying trip to the rain forest in search of a missing college student. The plot was amazing and although it became evident to me before it was actually revealed, Lyons still had me turning pages non-stop. I could not put this book down.

Title: Mercy 6 Author: David Bajo Narrator: Aimee Jolson Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 50 mins Language: English Release date: 09-09-14 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 2.5 of 5 out of 17 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: In Mercy 6, David Bajo's courageous new medical thriller, four people collapse dead in the same instant within a newly renovated Los Angeles hospital. Dr. Mendenhall, the woman who is head of the emergency room, isn't convinced the cause of death is a contagion. But it's in the interests of the hospital administrators - and of the world at large - for people to think that it is. If the world knew the truth there could only be widespread panic. The hospital is immediately locked down. Information is suddenly being strictly controlled. Government troops encircle the hospital to enforce the quarantine, and other bodies arrive in the ER. Working with an ally in pathology and a colleague outside the hospital, Mendenhall develops her understanding that what has taken these lives has global implicationsand whatever it is, it's not a virus. Members Reviews: Can't belive I finished this book! Any additional comments? I love a good medical thriller-I'm even an R.N.-but this book went on forever and I was confused the entire time. It never made any sense-very disappointing Don't waste a credit What was most disappointing about David Bajos story? Very slow moving. I"m on chapter 20 and can't force myself to finish it. I've hung in there for this long hoping the story would pick up, but no luck. Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Aimee Jolson? This narrator was only part of the problem, yes she was slow and sluggish sounding even after I turned the speed up to 1.5 but she was not to blame for the slow story. Wasted hour and wasted data to download I suffered through an entire hour, still had almost no idea what the characters were about. The idea sounded good, the reality was dull, non starter. Skip this. It is one of the worst ever. There are very few books that I don't like at all, but this was one. The reader had one voice, very mono-tone, with no differentiation between different characters. The story itself was very convoluted and the details were confusing. I was constantly lost and had to go back to figure out exactly what was going on. The reader made this worse, because I was never sure who was speaking. Unfortunately, I can tell that the plot idea was really good. It was just that the development was extremely poor. I would not recommend this book and probably will not get any more by this author. I am being generous when I give it 2 stars.

Before Evil Audiobook by Alex Kava

Title: Before Evil Subtitle: Maggie O'Dell, Book 12 Author: Alex Kava Narrator: Regina Reagan Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 48 mins Language: English Release date: 09-28-17 Publisher: Hachette Audio Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Special Agent Maggie O'Dell doesn't need to set foot at a crime scene to catch a serial killer. From her small Quantico office, she's profiled criminals using just Polaroids and faxed copies of evidence from homicide detectives across the country. Then comes Albert Stucky...and nothing will ever be the same. Stucky is a sadistic madman who places pieces of his victims in takeout containers and leaves them for innocent bystanders to find. He enjoys his twisted games as much as he enjoys the kill. And when Maggie is tasked with profiling his murders, Stucky is only too happy to rise to the challenge. Critic Reviews: "O'Dell could be Reacher's long-lost twin." (Lee Child) "Rip-roaring action that only builds in intensity with every page." (Tess Gerritsen) Members Reviews: "No Ordinary Hunter" No ordinary evil, either!! The serial killer in this prequel is exceptionally sick, rich, organized, sadistic, and pathological. By the way, great idea to write many books in a serial of an FBI Profiler, and then tell the story of how she got there!! If you've read any of the Maggie O'Dell books, you will love learning more about her early years. If you haven't read any of this series, this couldn't be a better place to start! A richly created and described character, Maggie O'Dell has been an FBI profiler a short time, but she has a gift. She has helped find quite a few murderers, even though she has never been in the so-called field. She works from packets of information, pictures, and sometimes evidence of the crime. In "Before Evil" Author Alex Kava relates Maggie's first case in the field, and it's a doozie! We also learn about Maggie's childhood, losses, loves, and challenges. This storyline is well-plotted, engrossing, and entertaining from the beginning to the frightening and surprising end! Nail Biting, Captivating Thriller! From the author's note: "I never intended to write a series. I know that may seem difficult to believe, especially now after twelve books featuring FBI Special Agent Maggie OâDellâfifteen, if you consider the Ryder Creed series which includes Maggie. Many of you have heard me talk about this before. When I wrote my debut novel, A Perfect Evil, I intended for it be a standalone novel. To be honest, I didnât even read series novels back in those days. A Perfect Evil became an international bestseller, and suddenly, my publisher at the time, insisted I write a followup novel. If thatâs what readers wanted, then of course, thatâs what Iâd write." If you haven't yet started the O'Dell series, this is the launching pad as it's the prequel to A Perfect Evil. If you have started reading the series, then you're going to enjoy this book. Many of our questions are answered, about the serial killer Albert Stucky, Dr. Gwen Patterson, Maggie, etc. The story has FBI agent and profiler Maggie O'Dell out in the field for the first time. She is up against serial killer Albert Stucky, and in a fascinating, compelling, action packed story, we learn more about our heroines idiosyncrasies and her strength. Maggie is an intelligent, driven woman and I very much enjoyed this well written suspense filled tale sure to be on the best seller's lists. I loved the ending, but my only gripe is that the ending wasn't more elaborate.

Rage Audiobook by Lawrence W. Gold, M.D.

Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/389/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Rage Author: Lawrence W. Gold, M.D. Narrator: Larry Gallegos Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 24 mins Language: English Release date: 08-25-14 Publisher: Grass Valley Publishing Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 14 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: When normal people suddenly attack and murder, their defense attorney hires Dr. Michael Rose - a former cop turned forensic psychiatrist - and his associate Karen Scott to represent them in court. The inexplicable events mystify these experienced professionals, and together they seek a rational explanation. When psychiatric evaluation reveals a pattern among the subjects, Michael suspects that there is more to these incidents than spontaneous psychosis. Using his instincts and skills as a former police detective, Michael and Karen begin their own investigation. What they uncover is chilling. Who is behind it? Why is it happening, and most importantly, can they do something before the killer strikes again? During the dramatic denouement, Michael must wrestle with his conscience and the true meaning of justice. Members Reviews: Fascinating I have to start this with my own disclaimer: So many reviewers received this book as a free copy that I must state that I paid for my Kindle copy, as I have for Dr. Gold's other books. Many have mentioned that typos in the text that I must add that I did not find them very distracting because the plot line was so engaging and the basic premise fascinating. A series of seemingly random murders and other acts of violence take place, committed by people with no psychiatric history. Dr. Michael Rose, a forensic psychiatrist who once was a police officer and therefore has a broad background on criminal behavior, sets out to find the reason why. After several stages of investigation, Dr. Rose finds that there is a relation between the murders, orchestrated by an extremely unlikely perpetrator who seems above suspicion through most of the book. The plot line, which includes a blend of pharmacology and psychology, held my attention throughout. Having read all five of Dr. Gold's novels, I found it very interesting that in three, including this one, the bad guy ends up shot to death by one of his victim's relatives when the justice system fails to exact retribution. This is the "lex talionis" at its best, as when the criminal justice system fails, citizens must take the law into their own hands. Good Plot This was well written, but with some editorial problems. The story was interesting and I really liked the conclusion. It's a good read. This book gripped me and would not let go! I have read almost every single book Lawrence Gold has written. I have yet to find one I didn't absolutely enjoy! Rage does have medical components but is a stand alone novel apart from his hospital series. Perfectly normal people are committing horrendous murders and then don't remember a thing. And it keeps happening--the only thing tying it together is the approximate location where they live. The defense lawyers run to grab forensic psychiatrist Michael Rose and his assistant before the prosecution lawyers do. This is truly another book I did not put down--3 hours later and I finished it! Another 5 for Dr. Gold! Interesting Twist on a Murder Investigation I have to admit that living in San Mateo County (where the book is set) made me more interested. The flip side, of course, is constantly second-guessing the author about the setting. All good except for a trip at the end that only took half as long as it would in real life. A minor quibble as the actual time didn't matter to the plot. Overall, Rage kept my interest all the way through.

Dead Guilty Audiobook by Beverly Connor

Title: Dead Guilty Author: Beverly Connor Narrator: Alanis Peart Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 50 mins Language: English Release date: 10-21-08 Publisher: Oakhill Publishing Ltd Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 51 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: The sensational case has aroused the interest of the media, unnerved the locals and inspired a gruesome game between the killer and Diane. It begins with taunting e-mails and chilling phone calls. Where it leads is a dangerously personal investigation as each bizarre clue brings Diane closer to a heartless betrayal and a desperate man's obession for justice. Critic Reviews: "An oustanding series...deserves comparison with the best of Patricia Cornwell." (Booklist) Members Reviews: Slow I love this type of book, however I just couldn't get into this one. I don't know if its the recording or some issue with my playback, but there were what seemed like very poorly placed pauses. The pausing made the audio feel choppy and hard to follow. The narrator's ever changing accent was distracting as well, some words were pronounced with a Canadian accent, other times she seemed to be trying for a Southern accent. These distractions coupled with the slow movement of the plot made this a hard listen for me. Great story, incredibly bad narration Having read the book first, I was looking forward to hearing this story brought to life. To my disappointment, Ms. Peart is completely flat and expressionless, and mispronounces so many simple words that I stopped listening after the first 80 minutes. good listen This book was excellent. I was captivated from the begining to end. I loved all forensic stuff. highly recommend this book. MUST READ GOOD MYSTERY ! Very good story & interesting holding my interest through out the book, great forensics Science and murder investigations. highly recommended book. Tightly written, poorly narrated. I'm still on part one and I'm already caught up into the story line. But the narration is so bad, I'm not sure I can finish the book! The narrator has a great voice, but the poor flow, mispronouncing of words, and hesitations are very off putting (didn't anyone think to seek advice on how to pronounce medical words like "carotid". It sounds as though it was not listened to after the narrator finished. I'm quite surprised actually, I've never known Audible to produce such shoddy work.

But the epidemics source proves elusive; the death count rises and when the scourge threatens someone close to Zol, he calls in his friend and colleague Hamish Wakefield, a microbe connoisseur with a nose for exotic diagnoses. Though Hamish uncovers other dangers, he cant crack the puzzle, and neither can the health units outbreak-hunting whiz kid. It takes the observant octogenarians to expose the deaths for what they really are: a string of murders. Fast-paced and intricately plotted, Tampered issecond in a series of booksto feature Dr. Zol Szabo and his quirky surrounding cast of mystery-solving public health officials. Members Reviews: Big Let Down from "Tainted" Would you listen to Tampered again? Why? No Which character as performed by P. J. Ochlan was your favorite? Love all characters Any additional comments? Incredibly weak & poorly developed plot. The grand finale is vaudevillian. I love the characters, the idea of these books. However, had I not read "Tainted" first, I would have hated this sequel. Seriously hope the current third book in the series is as well-considered as the first one was.

Title: Red Dragon Author: Thomas Harris Narrator: Thomas Harris Format: Abridged Length: 3 hrs and 15 mins Language: English Release date: 01-18-06 Publisher: Random House AudioBooks Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 27 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Sexual hunger; demonic violence; sinister logic; the lethal components of a deadly formula driving a psychopath in the grip of an unimaginable delusion; a boastful killer who sends the police tormenting notes; a tortured, torturing monster who finds ultimate pleasure in viciously murdering happy families, and calls himself The Red Dragon. Special agent Will Graham had been assigned to similar cases before, cases where he was able to see and feel with the madmen, anticipate their moves and, most terrifying of all, be vulnerable to their horrifying brutality. Now Graham is reluctantly lured out of retirement, to find an opening to the evil mind of the Red Dragon. Red Dragon is quite probably the most suspenseful, utterly compelling thriller ever written. ©1981 Thomas Harris; (P)2002 Random House Audiobooks Members Reviews: A good listen - but where's the rest? I know what the word "abridged" means. I know that there are many times where a story is slimmed down in order to make the listening easier for the audience and so the reader doesn't run out of steam (it was a delight, by the way, to hear the tale from the writer's won lips). But how come we audible listeners don't have the non-abridged option available to us? Is it a copyright thing? Unlikely seeing as you have Thomas Harris himself reading for you. Is it because so parts of the book were too graphic to be voiced? I don't think so. I don't think it gets much worse than, what I will call to prevent spoilers, "The Wheelchair Scene". Is it because it just makes it snappier? Maybe, but if I wanted a snappy version I could have just rented the films Manhunter or Red Dragon. When I listen to a story I want the extra details and characters that I may have missed by only seeing the film. I want the world fleshed out for me. And while I can't fault the story or the narration, I feel a little cheated that I didn't get more. I bought this because I have recently watched Hannibal on NBC, and just in case there are others like me who want to expand their knowlege of the original, let me just put in this warning. There is Jack. There is Freddy. I don't know how reduced their parts are, but they're there at least. But there is only one mention of Alan Bloom and Beverly Katz just barely makes a cameo with no lines. I think Hobbs was entirely cut out. If you want more details for your dollar, more bang for your buck, you may be better off reading, Red Dragon the old fashioned way. In the end it's a good listen. I'm just not sure whether it's enough. Not a wasted word This is my first Thomas Harris story. It is a very pleasant narration of a tight and gripping suspense novel. I will listen to it again. Didn't like it at all This book wasnt for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more? I don't know who would enjoy this, it just didn't have any depth to it at all. Has Red Dragon turned you off from other books in this genre? I am about to read his next book 'Silence of the Lambs', so hopefully it is better. What didnt you like about Thomas Harriss performance? There was no emotion or emphasis. All voices were the same. You didnt love this book...

(People) "[A] spine-tingling medical chiller....The pieces in this adeptly crafted Rubik's cube don't click into place until the final [moment]." (Publishers Weekly ) Members Reviews: Predictable This book was difficult for me to get interested in. The story was so predictable. I found myself jumping ahead in my mind realizing what was next. It lacked suspense in every way and the narration did not help either. I FELT - LEFT HANGING! Would you try another book from Tess Gerritsen and/or Megan Gallagher? Megan, yes. Tess Gerritsen needs to finish what she started. What could Tess Gerritsen have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you? Left out LOTS of details necessary to make the story easier to follow. This is the only book from Audible that I've had to keep backing up (30 second rewind) in order to catch just what is going on. The end is the WORST! Not only were details missing, but I was still waiting to find out if Tobi was okay - HOW did she survive? WHEN did they find her - HOW did they find her? And, did Tobi and her sister HUG and CRY together? OR, did they just go their separate ways and hardly speak or connect again, now that their mother (who was their only common bond?) had passed. Have you listened to any of Megan Gallaghers other performances before? How does this one compare? No - but, I hope to. You didnt love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities? Not one.... Any additional comments? Can I have my money back? Excellently abridged and read well This recording is a bargain for 3 hours' listening to a fast-paced and ingenious thriller. Although going beyond what is currently biologically feasible in cell biology it is sufficiently plausible to be believable and the author obviously knows a lot about bio-medical matters. The abridging has been expertly done as the story is coherent and easy to follow. The reader is good. I liked it A very good reading when I have a few time and I have 2 more books to listen to .julie Great storyline, well abridged Guessed the story line, but it still had unexpected twists. Good book recommend detective lovers

Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 61 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Determined to find out what happened to her former deputy chief, Jack Fielding, murdered six months earlier, Kay Scarpetta travels to the Georgia Prison for Women, where an inmate has information not only on Fielding, but also on a string of grisly killings. The murder of Atlanta family years ago, a young woman on death row, and the inexplicable deaths of homeless people as far away as California seem unrelated. But Scarpetta discovers connections that compel her to conclude that what she thought ended with Fieldings death and an attempt on her own life is only the beginning of something far more destructive: a terrifying terrain of conspiracy and potential terrorism on an international scale. And she is the only one who can stop it. Members Reviews: Cornwell in good form Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? Yes, in my opinion this is one of the better recent Scarpetta novels. It's got a good range of interesting characters and explores subject matter that's not too similar to the previous novels. At times I thought this one is less pessimistic than some of the earlier novels, though it's hard to put my finger on how. What was one of the most memorable moments of Red Mist? Interesting plot twists, including one dramatic demise (there's always got to be one). Although I foresaw one of the other plot developments - and I don't think I'm particularly good at doing this - I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. Like the other Scarpetta novels, it has numerous plot strands and is not spoilt if you can predict part of what's coming. What does Lorelei King bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? Lorelei King is a great reader of Cornwell's Scarpetta novels. She does a good job with all of the characters. With this novel she even does an Australian accent - not the easiest for a non-Australian to do and it comes out sounding a bit like a parody, but perhaps this fits the situation. No longer at the same standard Would you try another book from Patricia Cornwell and/or Lorelei King? I would definitely listen to Lorelei king (though this is probably the weakest reading of hers that I have heard), and will probably try Patricia Cornwell again - though this title puts me off a little. Would you recommend Red Mist to your friends? Why or why not? I would not really recommend Red Mist. It has interesting ideas within, but I found it a little plodding in pace. This may be in part about the nature of the story. The conflict is a little emphemeral and the climactic scene seemed to me to come from nowhere and be resolved by the time you realised it was happening. I also found Kay Scarpetta as the narrating character a little annoying in a way that has been occasionally present in other books, but not to the extent I found here. A lot of passages waxing about why what she is choosing to do is right and good. Some of what she does in this story is simply not the right, reasonable or helpful thing to do, because even if your only experience of law or forensics was Cornwell's books, it would be clear that Scarpetta was compromising the case and herself.

Title: The Silver Swan Author: Benjamin Black Narrator: Timothy Dalton Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 51 mins Language: English Release date: 10-28-08 Publisher: Pan Macmillan Publishers Ltd. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 23 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: Time has moved on for Quirke, the world-weary pathologist first encountered in Christine Falls. It is the middle of the 1950s, that low, dishonourable decade; a woman he loved has died, a man he once admired is dying, while the daughter he for so long denied is still finding it hard to accept him as her father. When an old acquaintance approaches him about his wife's apparent suicide, Quirke recognizes trouble but, as always, trouble is something he cannot resist. Critic Reviews: "Drug addiction, morbid sexual obsession, blackmail and murder, as well as prose as crisp as a winter's morning by the Liffey . . . Quirke is human enough to swell the hardest of hearts." (GQ) Members Reviews: Série de Mistério para adultos. O narrador tem uma voz agradável, porém no altera a tom para momentos distintos, como exitaço, medo, apreenso, fúria. . . Wow the narrator did his best If you could sum up The Silver Swan in three words, what would they be? Good,well written story, and well narrated. Any additional comments? I've never keen on mystery or thriller, but something made me curious and listen till the end. I'm still finding my favorite mystery, but I'm glad Silver Swan was my first. Finished as fast as a couple of teenagers! I was enjoying the book and performance. Enough complexity and characterisation (particularly the cockney hairdresser). And then 'blamo': the plot is tied up in what felt like a couple of minutes. A disappointing end to an otherwise good read/listen. Impressive Where does The Silver Swan rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? Very high - I love Timothy Dalton's pacy narration, he captures the noirish genre perfectly and distinguishes each character well. What did you like best about this story? The characters, their inner thoughts, the descriptions of place and era. My favourite character keeps changing with each new Quirke novel - I adore the frog-faced Inspector Hackett. Glorious nourishment for the mind and ear, a moreish recording. I have never smoked in my life but there is so much smoking in this novel I could practically taste the nicotine, feel the smoke and smell the bitter coffee - the mystery is seedy but believable. What about Timothy Daltons performance did you like? His delivery is brisk, gripping and pitch perfect for these stories - I wish he had recorded more than 3 of these novels. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? Yes - the gradual, non-linear exploration of each character's experience keeps you guessing and the overall plot is exciting and enthralling. So Slow... I returned this Book as it just seemed dreary and slow - couldnt get into it

Is a s hook after the first few pages, great plot with strong characters. the story was made even better by the narration of Annie Aldington.

Addiction on Trial Audiobook by Steven Kassels

Title: Addiction on Trial Subtitle: Tragedy in Downeast Maine Author: Steven Kassels Narrator: Andrea O'Connell Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 55 mins Language: English Release date: 01-10-17 Publisher: Steven Kassels Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: When Downeast local Annette Fiorno is found at the bottom of a ravine, outsider and relapsed drug addict Jimmy Sedgwick is accused of murder. Unassuming Maine lawyer Rob Hanston and big shot attorney Shawn Marks form an unlikely legal team as they attempt to discredit the overwhelming evidence. Addiction on Trial, the first in a series of Shawn Marks Thrillers, revolves around the murder cases of attorney Marks, an egotistical yet likable high-powered Boston attorney who can juggle an array of female companions without taking his eye off the legal challenges of his work. Addiction on Trial sends a powerful message of societal discrimination toward drug addicts and explores common misperceptions about what drug addiction really is - a chronic illness requiring a treatment approach similar to other chronic diseases. Medical and behavioral aspects of addiction are woven into the intrigue of this thriller, which culminates in a riveting murder trial. Members Reviews: Dr. Kassels hits a first serve ace... Addiction on Trial was a great read and I breezed right through the book. The story line, the characters, their interactions and the author's descriptions throughout kept me engaged. I came away with a better understanding of what doctors and nurses go through in emergency room settings, and the helpless feeling many families have when dealing with addiction issues. The timing of the release comes when coverage of heroin overdoses has taken off. Over prescribed, expensive pain killers morphing into heroin have become a challenge to treatment and rehabilitation. This book gives an accurate account of the perils of addiction and how it affects many lives. By bringing awareness to addiction, Dr. Kassels is shedding light on the problem without being preachy or judgmental. His book is a great vehicle for opening discussions about a topic that is obviously wreaking havoc on all walks of life. The author does a fantastic job at showing how society discriminates against drug addicts ... This book is a medical murder mystery/legal thriller and is very educational when it comes to the topic of addiction, which is what I found most intriguing about it as I've had addiction touch my family. The author does a fantastic job at showing how society discriminates against drug addicts and how drug addiction is a highly misunderstood disease. Addiction on Trial tells the story of three friends, Jimmy, Travis, and Annette, who all happen to be addicts, although Travis and Annette have been able to hide their addictions well through the years. When Jimmy is accused of murdering Annette, his father Adam, along with a team of lawyers, Robert Hanston and Shawn Marks, and news reporter Sally Jenkin, try to prove otherwise. At first, the story skips around a bit, going from past to present and although the entire story centers around trying to prove Jimmy's innocence, I feel like the author could have made Jimmy a bigger part of the story because I feel there is a lot more to this character. While I didn't like the ending, I found out this is the first book in a series so hopefully in the sequel justice will be served and we'll find out a little bit more about Jimmy. Addiction--a condition that needs treatment, follow-up and research. I gave this book 5 stars because of the education surrounding addiction.

Eyes of Prey Audiobook by John Sandford

Title: Eyes of Prey Subtitle: A Lucas Davenport Mystery, Book 3 Author: John Sandford Narrator: Richard Ferrone Format: Unabridged Length: 14 hrs and 1 min Language: English Release date: 11-01-12 Publisher: Whole Story Audiobooks Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 10 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Medical Thrillers Publisher's Summary: In Eyes of Prey, a depressed and unfocused Davenport takes on a macabre case, tracking down a serial killer whose attacks are focused on the eyes of his victims. With all of his current inner turmoil, Davenport isn't sure that he should accept the case when he hears about the murder of Stephanie Bekker, the wife of a prominent physician. But when a second woman dies, her face cruelly maimed like the first, he feels that clutching intensity of interest that means he is involved whether he wants to be or not. Members Reviews: Don't read this review; try it yourself! If you could sum up Eyes of Prey in three words, what would they be? Eyes of prey is well written and works to round out the main character of the series "Lucas Davenport". Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How? The plot was well thought out but a little predictable, still non the less enjoyable for guessing what was coming. I was certainly not compelled to keep reading to the end but did eagerly await the next 3 or 4 spare hours to continue the story.In this novel Davenport is hunting his own demons trying to make sense of his own situation and existence and at the same time trying to shut down the terror caused by a crazed doctor and his "mate". The story moved along well and each character comes to life quickly and more thoroughly as you get deeper into the story. What does Richard Ferrone bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? Whilst there seems to be a lot of negativity around Richard Ferrone's reading of this novel I actually think he is what makes it worth "reading", it is very drawn out and "poised" however that is what makes the whole thing a little more contemplative and gives you plenty of time to draw your own characterisation of specific events and scenes. I personally found his style difficult to come to grips with but now I am glad it looks like he is reading the whole series, there is nothing worse than a change in reader during a series of the same characters.His character voices are fine and help to bring them to life. Do your self a favour and listen to the first 2 in the series, get used to Richard as if you did listen to this reading first I think you may be put off; don't be and don't listen to the critics.... make your own mind. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? If your a fan of Lee Child Reacher series, Michael Connelly Bosch series you will provably also enjoy this series. There are some unexpected turns but predictable enough that you know you will enjoy. I'm looking forward to book 4. Any additional comments? Overall I only give this 4 stars across the board. The plot is a little too predictable, the audio whilst read well has lots of pops and squeaks and microphone noises. Worth the credit... but that's just my opinion. Cheers and happy "reading" - Shooter Sorry! Awful narration What would have made Eyes of Prey better? Another narrator! Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How? Didn't last longer than 1,5h - tried three times. I am sure it is great. I love the other books. Would you be willing to try another one of Richard Ferrones performances? NO! Eyes of Prey Brilliant thriller, real twist at the end, can't wait to listen to more I.

The heiress isnt the only elderly female to have appeared on Tempes gurney recently. Back in Montreal, three more women have died, their bodies brutally discarded. Tempe is convinced theres a link between their deaths and that of the heiress. But what or who connects them? Tempe struggles with the clues, but nothing adds up. Has she made grave errors or is some unknown foe sabotaging her? It soon becomes frighteningly clear. Its not simply Tempes career at risk. Her life is at stake too. Members Reviews: Crime and mystery at its best 206 Bones is crime and mystery at its best. Accused of mishandling an autopsy, Tempe investigates, but then the man she needs information from turns up dead. Elderly women are turning up dead and Ryan fears that they have a serial killer. Meanwhile tensions are high at the lab in Montreal. A new staff member is causing trouble as she has stars in her eyes and is manipulating cases to make herself look good, at the expense of Tempe and her co-workers. Lorelei King delivers a great performance of the audiobook, and Kathy Reichs has delivered another brilliant novel in the Bones series. As expected Well read, but not one of the most exciting of her books. Would recommend others to begin with and then this if you become a fan. Excellent as always As expected this audio book didn't fail in any way. In my option Lorelei King is one of the best narrators out there, and combined with the usual standard of Kathy Reichs writing it made for an excellent book. Excellent First book to listen to, took a bit to get used to the pace but after that it was excellent

Down among the dead men... Pathologist Quirke works in the city morgue, watching over Dublin's dead. The latest to join their ghostly ranks is a suicide. But something doesn't add up. The victim has a suspicious head wound, and the only witness has vanished, every trace of her wiped away. On the trail of the missing woman, Quirke finds himself drawn into the shadowy world of Dublin's elite - secret societies, High Church politics and corrupt politicians. It leads him to a long-buried conspiracy that involves his own family. But it's too late to go back now.... The dead will be heard. Members Reviews: Life, all its cruelties and yet... Excellent with a brilliant narrator and a story that is slow to move into higher gears but goes on an unexpected roller coaster of a ride. Quirk, with his mental problems sees the world in a very unusual and lyrical way that gives an uncommon yet painterly view of life. The characters as seen by him are remote and distant but the story is vivid in its descriptions and has a very visual quality. Dublin and the Ireland of the 1950s is well drawn.
