    For the second time in his short life, Teddy Clock has survived a massacre. Two years ago, he barely escaped when his entire family was slaughtered. Now, at 14, in a hideous echo of the past, Teddy is the lone survivor of his foster family’s mass murder. Orphaned once more, the traumatized teenager has nowhere to turn - until the Boston PD puts Detective Jane Rizzoli on the case. Determined to protect this young man, Jane discovers that what seemed like a coincidence is one part of a killer’s mission.

    Diane says: "A Tantalizing Thriller"

    Story
    Would you listen to Last to Die again? Why?

    Yes I would. It was quite an involved story line and quite honestly, I sort of lost the thread in the middle.


    What did you like best about this story?

    Interesting story and didn't have an expected ending.


    What about Tanya Eby’s performance did you like?

    Tanya was very good. I really enjoyed her narration.


    If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

    Will keep you guessing till the end.


    Any additional comments?

    I will definitely read this author again.

    Libby Day was seven when her mother and two sisters were murdered in "The Satan Sacrifice of Kinnakee, Kansas". As her family lay dying, little Libby fled their tiny farmhouse into the freezing January snow. She lost some fingers and toes, but she survived, and famously testified that her 15-year-old brother, Ben, was the killer. Twenty-five years later, Ben sits in prison, and troubled Libby lives off the dregs of a trust created by well-wishers who've long forgotten her.

    Story

    Somehow, I didn't expect such a great story. Its my first experience with Gillian Flynn but I was totally immersed in this intricate and absorbing story and blown away with the conclusion; I didn't see it coming which, for me, is unusual. It was a somewhat harrowing tale and I truly suffered for the characters but it is so true to real life with no pat finish to make the reader feel good. I imagine the author must have suffered somewhat in writing this story. I'll look for future books from this author.

    Investigator Wayne Weston is found dead of an apparent suicide in his home in an upscale Cleveland suburb, and his wife and six-year-old daughter are missing. Weston’s father insists that private investigators Lincoln Perry and Joe Pritchard take the case to exonerate his son and find his granddaughter and daughter-in-law. As they begin to work, they discover there is much more to the situation than has been described in the prevalent media reports.

    Ed says: "Amazingly good for a debut book"
    "Narrator disappointing"

    Story
    Would you try another book from Michael Koryta and/or Scott Brick?

    The narrator sounded tired and old. It was somewhat depressing. The story was good however but I felt the "twist" at the end came out of nowhere and left me thinking "what did I miss"


    What didn’t you like about Scott Brick’s performance?

    Boring voice, sounded tired and old.
