Publisher's summary

The twenty-first novel from New York Times bestselling author Eric Jerome Dickey, a steamy thriller set in tropical Barbados.

She is a woman of a thousand faces, an assassin who could be anyone, anywhere.

The Trinidad contract was supposed to be simple: To make a living man become a dead man. When the job goes bad under the watchful eye of a bank security camera, there is nowhere for agent MX-401, known as Reaper, to hide from the fearsome local warlords, the Laventille Killers.

Her employers, the Barbarians, send her to Barbados, the next island over, barely two hundred miles away, with the LK's in hot pursuit of the woman who took many of their own. With the scant protection of a dank safe house, no passport, and no access to funds, an island paradise becomes her prison.

While she trawls for low-profile assignments to keep her skills sharp and a few dollars in her pocket, Reaper discovers that family ties run deep, on both sides of the fight. Will the woman everyone wants, who has lived countless lives in the service of others, finally discover who she really is?

In A Wanted Woman, New York Times bestselling author Eric Jerome Dickey delivers an adrenaline-pumping rush of a listen.

Critic reviews

"A wild, thrilling ride." (Ebony)

"Another fine performance.... Not your typical thriller about a hired killer, but an immensely readable, hard-to-put-down tale." (Booklist)

"There’s a cinematic vibe here with James Bond fantastic escapes mixed with Game of Thrones Red Wedding-type gore as blood flows.... Anticipate demand." (Library Journal)

It was like listening to a movie!

I loved that I felt like I was watching a suspenseful movie. This turned out to be good and action packed!!

Excellent

I love you Dickey! Narration was excellent loved the female. Excellent accents. Great job. Great story. What I'd expect from Mr. Dickey. He rarely disappoints

I was on the edge of my seat this entire story.

this story was amazing. it had so many twist and turns that kept me reading.

Love love loved it!!

This book keep me on my toes. Never a dull moment. Thanks for all you’ve done for the book industry Eric. You will be missed

Action packed !!!

I absolutely loved this book! It was packed with action, sex, a great plot and amazing narrators. I was thrown off by the amount of chapters but it didn't stop me. I listened to at least 3 to 5 chapters every day. There were some points where I "couldn't put the book down". Marvelous job Mr. Dickey!

Love this book

could not stop listening to this book. Amazing story and even better narration. can't wait to listen to next one

Great book, narration needs work

As always, EJD created a masterpiece. But the narrator speaks in a monotone except for when she does the voices. This got quite irritating after a few hours. But if you fight through it, the content is worth it.

Hesitate at first

when it started I was not sure I would be able to complete it But after 2 chapter I couldn't stop list Good story line

This was a dark story....

I could see the characters in my head. I can see thisnas a movie. I enjoyed the way the reader went in and out of voices for her characters. She was really good. It brought the audio to life.

A Hit Woman, another great character!

Would you consider the audio edition of A Wanted Woman to be better than the print version?

Yes, the audio edition was excellent. I even have the book.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Reaper and Petraqure

Have you listened to any of Zoë Bell and Dominic Hoffman ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, I've heard Zoe Bell before and she is great every time. Never heard Dominic, but he was great as well.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, you want to listen in one sitting.

Any additional comments?

I need Eric to get to typing on the next book, but I need Gideon and Reaper to meet and work together. I love that he has made a Hit Woman and I wanted more. I also need to hear more sister "bonding" and "working" at the same time.
