Dead Center

Rookie Club Series, Book 1

De: Danielle Girard

Narrado por: Rachel Dulude

Fifteen years ago, the Rookie Club began as a tight-knit band of female cops struggling for respect. Jamie Vail was one of them. So was Natasha Devlin, the woman Jamie caught in bed with her husband.

When Natasha Devlin turns up dead, Jamie can't bring herself to care. She's got enough on her plate, hunting a sexual predator who preys on female officers. He leaves them alive, but brutalized. But when the MO of the Devlin murder matches the MO of the perp in Jamie's case, she's brought in on the homicide investigation and back into the Rookie Club she has been avoiding since her husband's affair.

As more cops become victims, Jamie must confront her past and solve the murder of her ex-husband's lover before she becomes the killer's ultimate prize.

great book, AWFUL reading

This is, by far, the WORST reading of a book I've ever experienced! Rachel Dulude should never be allowed to read books allowed EVER!
The story was completely ruined!
Finally set this book aside to read when I had my hands free to actually READ it myself.
I don't normally comment on audible books. But I purchase one every 2-3 days. This one I just HAD to warn people away from. If you are unable to read Danielle Girard's book for yourself, I suggest you don't. Rachel Dulude's reading of it is AWFUL! You cannot even follow the plot! Reading along with the narration makes me want to pull out my own hair!
For a quick example of how painfully contradictory the unraveling events are to the reading, just listen to the narration of the last couple pages of chapter 20.

Robotic narrator

The story was fine, albeit a little far fetched at times. I still enjoyed it. The reader was a little weird. She did well for a bit, then sounded robotic at times.

Great read!

Danielle writes a wonderful book! It is a mixture of mystery,adventure and she through sin a hint of the softer side of cops! For me the murderer was a mystery to the end! I can’t wait to listen to the next book in the series! Rachel Dulude is on of the best storytellers I have listened to! She doesn’t sound like just a reader. She puts her heart into the storyline. Thank you

Harsh

Needs a warning for triggers. I really wanted to like this series just too much violence.

Robotic Reading great story

The story was absolutely excellent, however, the reading of it was at times robotic and in fact at the very beginning I had to check the name again to see if it was a person reading it or some kind of AI program.
