Blindman's Bluff

De: Faye Kellerman

Narrado por: Mitchell Greenberg

LAPD homicide detective Peter Decker and his wife, Rina Lazarus, will be blindsided by a brutal multiple murder in this twisting tale of suspense from New York Times best-selling author Faye Kellerman.

"They say dead men don't talk, but if you listen, they do."

As a lieutenant in the LAPD, homicide detective Peter Decker doesn't get many calls at 3 a.m. unless a case is nasty, sensational - or both. Someone has broken into the exclusive Coyote Ranch compound of billionaire developer Guy Kaffey and viciously gunned him down, along with his wife and four employees. A well-known figure on both the business and society pages, Kaffey, with his sons and his younger brother, Mace, built most of the shopping malls in Southern California and earned a reputation for philanthropy, donating millions to worthy causes. It doesn't take long for Peter, his trusted detectives Scott Oliver and Marge Dunn, and the rest of his homicide team to figure out that the gruesome killings must be an inside job. Things become even more entangled when they discover that Kaffey's largesse had included organizations that extended second chances to delinquents, many of whom Kaffey had hired for his personal security. But was the job pure murder/robbery or something even more twisted?

A developer of Kaffey's magnitude doesn't make billions without making more enemies with blood grudges. With leads taking the team across L.A., up and down the Golden State, and into Mexico, Decker is plenty busy - and plenty thankful not to have to worry about his wife, Rina Lazarus, getting caught up in this deadly case. Rina is out of harm's way, serving on a jury at the courthouse. But then a chance encounter with a court translator who needs her help leads Rina into the terrifying heart of her husband's murder investigations - and straight into the path of a gang of ruthless killers. To protect Rina, Decker must find his prey before death unites his two worlds.

Fairly Good

I li km the reader little to many cuss words but the plight was good and a good read like Deana participating and would like more of her

Enjoyable but not as compelling as other boos in the series

I am a fan of the stories of the family of Peter and Rina Lazarus starting with the opening “ The Ritual Bath”. I find that some plots are too far-fetched.
I also prefer when the children are involved or appear more. In the present book Cindy appears briefly as newly married and Hannah is a moody teenager.

Another good listen

Always enjoy a Peter Decker story. I always listen more than once to focus on what I missed the first tim

Another great Peter Decker novel

This one was just as good as all the other Peter Decker novels. Exciting and fun.

Always love spending time with Peter and Rina

I've been reading these books since forever, and this is my first time listening to them. I'm not sure if I would have enjoyed it more if I'd been reading, but the point is moot since I have more time to listen than I do to read these days. I enjoyed the story, enjoyed catching up with all the characters. Not sure the narrator was my favorite, but he didn't ruin it for me -- just made me question whether the dialog sounded so 'flat' in print. Way too many Peter said, Rina said, Hannah replied -- didn't really add to the story. I did enjoy the story, it was suspenseful most of the way through and interesting until the end.

But hours spent with either Kellerman are always worthwhile so this won't be my last.

Enjoyed the second time as well!

Another book I had already listened to at some point, but forgot that I did, and enjoyed regardless the second time around.

Good enough

I don't know what it is about Decker and his family but I find them such nice people that I listen happily to the books as if the narration weren't really about murder and mayhem (which they are). The courage and genuine humanity of the Decker family influences my experience of the book. The story is good, not great - but good enough to make me read on.

The hours spent by police trying to get the truth out of the suspects.

The blind man’s persistence & Rinas nicety towards him. How he moved around using his other senses.

Kept me guessing right up to the end!

I thoroughly enjoyed the story and the Story Teller. Mitchell Greenberg is THE BEST!!!
I was so sorry to see/hear that someone else was doing the future recordings. I try to read/listen to them in order. I accidentally skipped ahead to the books read by another person...I was so very disappointed in the narration. It made it very hard for me to be interested in the story. Everyone sounded like an old man.
I was Soooo very happy to find I had missed
Blindman’s Bluff. I was able to listen to Mitchell Greenberg again and really enjoy the story. Please change back to Mr. Greenberg!!!

Another great book

It's another great book by Kellerman I can't wait to Listen to the next book in the series
