Blood Moon

A Kate Burkholder Short Mystery

De: Linda Castillo

Narrado por: Kathleen McInerney

Chief of Police Kate Burkholder confronts a mysterious beast terrorizing the residents of Painters Mill in this new original short mystery from bestselling author Linda Castillo.

On a foggy spring night, an Amish man crashes his buggy after a large, unidentified animal spooks his horse. Kate Burkholder arrives on scene to find the man shaken and bleeding, claiming he was attacked by a large beast. But his description of the creature sounds like something straight out of the Amish folklore from Kate’s childhood. Throughout the night, more incidents of an aggressive animal on the loose are reported, putting the citizens of Painters Mill on edge. There’s a monster menacing the countryside, and Kate must follow its tracks into the dark woods along Painters Creek before violence tips over into tragedy.

A Macmillan Audio production from Minotaur Books.

Reseñas de la Crítica

<p><b>Praise for <i>Fallen</i>:</b><br><br>“Exhilarating...Castillo adds surprising twists to the gripping plot and touches upon police brutality and Amish discrimination. This sterling entry can be easily read as a standalone.” –<b><i>Publishers Weekly </i>(starred)<br></b><br>“An absolute cracker of a book.” –<b><i>Booklist </i>(starred)<br></b><br>“Castillo uses her Ohio background and knowledge to superb effect. She conceives and creates fully fleshed characters, devises an intricate and twisty plot and examines complex issues of religion and morality. A series of literary weight, Castillo’s work appeals to connoisseurs of crime fiction who expect powerful purpose as well as serious storytelling.” –<b><i>Fredericksburg Free-Lance Star</i></b><br><br>“Castillo is terrific at constructing a story, and her pacing is impeccable…this series just gets better and better; <i>Fallen </i>may be the best entry yet.” –<b><i>St. Louis Post Dispatch</i></b><br><br>“<i>Fallen </i>successfully pushes the envelope of the series…Castillo is more than capable of extracting new stories from a deceptively but deeply complex culture that is as intricate as it is misunderstood.” –<b><i>Bookreporter.com<br><br></i></b><b>Praise for <i>Outsider</i>:<br><br></b>“A pulse-pounding Amish thriller (really!) that’s all too relevant to our time.” —<b><i>Kirkus Reviews </i>(starred)</b><br><br>“[A] fast-paced, suspense-building ride, showing the character development and sensitivity to the Amish culture that mark Castillo’s masterful crime fiction.” –<b><i>Booklist </i>(starred)<br></b><br>“Bestseller Castillo’s suspenseful 12th Kate Burkholder mystery…Castillo presents a loving, realistic portrait of Amish life. Readers will hope Kate has a long career.” <b>—<i>Publishers Weekly</i></b></p>

Great Little Novella Without Vulgar Language

I’ve enjoyed all the books in the Kate Burkholder Series, with the exception of vulgar language. This little book proves the story can be just as good, even better, without the unnecessary ugly language.

Awesome

I love her books. The suspense of her novels keeps me engaged to the last minute

ok

I wish they would fix this problem with rating storyline but I think they don't even know there is a problem

Great author and narrator.

Really enjoy the Kate Burkholder stories and Kathleen McInerney is an exceptional narrator. Almost done with listening to all of the published books.

Not as good as usual

Love most of Linda Castillo books but this one was not my favorite. The plot was weak and ending anti climatic at best.

short story- not a full book

beware…. this is only a sort story…NOT a full book…and not much plot!

So disappointed!

I love this série. But a whole credit for a very short (1 and 1/2 hours) and very unsubstantiated story. What a let down!
