Publisher's summary

Paris is stunning in the summer.

NYPD detective Jacob Kanon is on a tour of Europe's most gorgeous cities. But the sights aren't what draw him - he sees each museum, each cathedral, and each cafe through the eyes of his daughter's killer.

The killing is simply marvelous.

Kanon's daughter, Kimmy, and her boyfriend were murdered while on vacation in Rome. Since then, young couples in Paris, Copenhagen, Frankfurt, and Stockholm have been found dead. Little connects the murders other than a postcard to the local newspaper that precedes each new victim.

Wish you were here.

Now, Kanon teams up with the Swedish reporter Dessie Larsson, who has just received a postcard in Stockholm - and they think they know where the next victims will be. With relentless logic and unstoppable action, The Postcard Killers may be James Patterson's most vivid and compelling thriller yet.

BIG JAMES PATTERSON FAN

What made the experience of listening to The Postcard Killers the most enjoyable?

I loved the story it was riviting and kept my interest.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

I couldn't wait to see what the killers were going to model their next kill after.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I was not a fan of the music that was added. I know it was for dramatic effect, but it came out of nowhere and was more of a distraction.

Incredible story!!!

The storyline is perfect! The details of story could be real. The precise small details and the story telling is perfection!
I recommend this book 10/10 !! Give a listen and read the book. The movie doesn’t touch this book not even with a pinky.

Weird audio music additions

Although I enjoyed the book, the audio additions were a little strange and sometimes overshadowed the reader's voice. Also, the one random tire squeal sound effect was also odd. The extra sounds should have been left out. I did really like that there were 3 different readers.

This book is a MUST!!!!

I do much enjoyed this book, I do listen to a lot of books but this one by far is my absolute favorite. I never heard a book with music or sound. You have to listen to know what I’m talking about. Definitely worth a listen

Left much to be desired

This story could have gone so many other ways. If there were 100 ways to bring this story to conclusion they picked the worst.

Three narrators? Silly music in the background? Why? This story would be a better read than listen.

Chapter numbers are off...

For example it will announce Chapter 13 but 21 shows up...it's maddening to try and figure out what chapter you're on if you fall asleep...please fix this issue !!!
