Caleb

By: Jeff Menapace

Narrated by: Gary Tiedemann

Length: 5 hrs and 40 mins

Publisher's summary

Caleb Lambert kills people for a living. The money is nice, but it comes a distant second to his primary reason for choosing such a vocation: Caleb often calls it “scratching an itch”.

Here’s the thing, though: Caleb won’t just accept any contract. He and his team thoroughly vet each and every prospective mark to make sure they deserve to be punished.

And why not? If anyone knows about true evil in this world, it’s Caleb Lambert. Along with his family, Caleb endured hell at the hands of multiple serial killers throughout his childhood, twisting his young mind into the mess it is today. Forever installed that need to “scratch an itch”.

And Caleb is frequently itchy, and business is good. But when a new job comes across his desk, Caleb’s entire world is turned upside down. The job appears to hold so many similarities to his past that he finds it all but impossible to turn down. An impulsive decision that could cost him dearly.

Author’s note: Caleb is a spin-off of the Bad Games series; however it is a stand-alone novel, and it is not necessary to have read/listened to the Bad Games series to enjoy.

Excellent!

I was intrigued by the book description, so I bought into the first of the series. I was not disappointed. Great narrator, intriguing story and main character. I recommend this book, and the series. After finishing this book I purchased the next two in the series. I typically would not spend a credit on a book less than 10 hours in length, but I am not disappointed to have done so.

Must read/Listen

Jeff Manpace always dilivers in his writing. Gary Tiedemann always makes his writing come to life. These two are by far my most listened to audible books. Anything with these two working together is gold.

Fantastic

First time reading this author and I freaking loved it! Going to buy book 2 in the series right now I've got to have more Caleb and Rosko

Killer is good guy

Even though it is a old plot, several killers after one target. I was very enthralled and couldn't quit reading/listening. The whole High Tech thing is a little far fetched but it fit in well with the story. Like I said it kept my interest.

Not as enjoyable

I was disappointed with this. The story should've stopped with Bad Games. It seamed forced.

good read

this book was interesting I love the action and story line, characters were great also

Good followup to Bad Games series

Decent followup. Kind of short. Was hoping longer. Good story with very abrupt ending.

SO GOOD!

I binged this book finishing it in under 12 hours. The reading was really enjoyable. Gary Tiedemann has a nice voice, with pleasant tone, nuances and inflection. The story was easy to follow, the characters interesting and the pace consistent and steady. I could easily visualize the scenes as they were rolled out. I definitely recommend getting on board with Caleb now so you don't miss a thing! You never know where he'll turn up next.

a forget me story but

Enjoyable escapism.. narration good, story sounds, could make a good series if one tightens character personality..

Enjoyable thriller…

Lots of action. Good narration. I didn’t like the “hero” at first but he grew on me.
