Body Count

Rachel Ryder, Book 5

De: Carolyn Ridder Aspenson

Narrado por: Anne Marie Damman

A serial killer is leaving numbers as his only clues...but nothing seems to add up.

From USA Today best-selling author Carolyn Ridder Aspenson.

When the fire department discovers a body near the scene of a suspicious blaze, Detective Rachel Ryder and her partner Rob Bishop are called to investigate. A set of numbers has been deliberately left near the body, and an autopsy reveals that the victim was killed before the fire.

This death was no accident.

When the investigation turns up few clues and no previous references to the killer’s calling card, Rachel and Rob turn to the media for help, eliciting contact from an unexpected source. It seems a killer from the past is back in the game...and the body count is growing.

Rachel and Bishop must solve a seemingly impossible case to stop the murders—and they don’t have much time. Because the killer is taunting them with clues about the next victim—twisting their investigation into a cruel game of cat-and-mouse.

Facing off against a cold-blooded mastermind who leaves nothing to chance, what will it take for Rachel to beat the serial killer at their own game...before another victim's number is up?

Rachel and Rob take on a serial killer.

This fifth episode in the Rachel Ryder series take thigs in a different direction with a killer leaving numbers on each of his victims. I listened to the audiobook for Body Count. To be honest I had just finished listening to the first four stories in the series which made me genuinely appreciate how awesome Body Count is and how much Carolyn Ridder Aspenson has developed this series and each of the characters. Along with the murder cases she has built the story around Rachel, Rob, Jimmy, and the rest of the Hamby PD and how well they all work together as well as the tensions that exist between them.

If you have read any of this series, you really need to read or listen to Body Count because it is the best of the series so far. Personally, I would recommend listening to this series because Anne Marie Damman does an awesome job of bringing each character to life including the snarky interactions between Rachel and Rob. Thanks to Severn River Publishing for providing me with an audiobook review copy of Body Count.

Great crime series!

Rachel Ryder reminds me of Harry Bosch. If you like the Bosch series, you'll love this series!

Great read!

I really like the no nonsense, strong female character in this mystery/crime thriller series and have enjoyed this book. The narration brings the the characters alive. Ready for another one to see what happens next!!!
