Double Take: An FBI Thriller, Book 11

De: Catherine Coulter

Narrado por: Sandra Burr, Phil Gigante

FBI agents Dillon Savich and Lacey Sherlock are joined by one of their own and a Virginia sheriff in an extraordinary case that immerses them in the world of psychic visions, mind benders, and communications with the dead

It's been more than six months since her husband's brutal death, and Julia Ransom is just beginning to breathe again. She loved her husband, renowned psychic August Ransom, but the media frenzy that followed his murder sapped what little strength she had left. Now, after dinner with friends, strolling along San Francisco's Pier 39, she realizes that she's happy. Standing at the railing, she savors the sounds around her-tourists, seals on a barge-and for a moment enjoys the sheer normalcy of it all. And then it comes to an end.

Out of nowhere she's approached by a respectable-looking man who distracts her with conversation before violently attacking her and throwing her the railing. If it hadn't been for Special Agent Cheney Stone, out to stretch his legs between courses at a local restaurant, Julia would have vanished into the bay's murky depths. Not only does he save her from a watery grave, but he senses a connection between her assault and her husband's death, and sets out to serve as her protector while reopening August Ransom's murder investigation.

Meanwhile, in Maestro, Virginia, Sheriff Dixon Noble-last seen in Point Blank-still mourns his wife, Christie, who vanished hree years earlier. His life, too, is just getting back to normal when he learns of a San Francisco woman named Charlotte Pallack, whose shocking resemblance to Christie sends Dix across the country. Though he knows in his heart that she can't possibly be his wife, Dix is compelled to see her with his own eyes. Once in San Francisco, Dix and Cheney's paths inevitably cross. With the help of agents Dillon Savich and Lacey Sherlock, whose San Francisco connections prove essential in unlocking the mystery behind Charlotte Pallack's identity as well as the forces behind Julia Ransom's attempted murder, Sheriff Noble and Agent Stone push deep into a complex world of psychics and poseurs. As the stakes and the body count rise, Savich, Sherlock, Dix, and Cheney fight for answers-and their lives.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Credible characters and a fascinating look at the world of psychics and thieves help make this one of Coulter's best." ( Publishers Weekly)
"The use of two narrators allows for well-paced dialogue. Phil Gigantes' cool intonation helps to clarify the narrative....Sandra Burr handles the womens voices with a light touch." ( AudioFile)

very good book!

This is one of my favorites in the series. Excellent characters as usual, and great story lines. The layers flow together very nicely!

Love the interwoven stories

Coulter is a master at weaving stories together.Always intriguing how the stories border on the paranormal yet remain realistic. My only disappointment is when the female narrator makes some female characters so unlike 80 year olds, i.e. Ruth and Catherine, when they’re less than half that in age.

Excellent

This book is very entertaining with great characters and suspense! Two story lines are well woven together. It includes Savich and Sherlock, Dix and Ruth, and Cheney and Julia. The narration is excellent! Very enjoyable!

Narrator distracts

The bouncing of male to female narrator is so distracting. I have listened to all the previous books with Sandra Burr narrating. She is fantastic. I don’t think I can finish this book or the rest of the series now.
How disappointing!! Yes I am done!

Great Book

As always Catherine Coulter did a wonderful job with her writing. The book grabbed my attention from the start and held it all the way through. I feel like I know her characters... Dillon and Sherlock and the other FBI agents. Thouroughly enjoyed the book!
