Lethal Liaisons

A Jack West Novel

De: Deanna King

Narrado por: John Fabela

Houston Homicide Detective Jack West is back at work. A fresh case he's working might be connected to a murder case fellow detectives Chang and Severson are working. The medical examiner's report shows some similarities to each murder, but the victims are strangers with nothing in common. A third murder victim found under a bridge on the Buffalo Bayou confirms Houston has a serial killer on the loose. Three very diverse people are dead—are these hate crimes, and if so, how many more will die? The clock is ticking; Jack and his team need to catch this killer before another body shows up.

Liked story not performance

The story was interesting and kept me engaged. I love the characters and the interplay. The crimes were nasty and it’s a good mystery to follow as they solve it. Unfortunately the narrator has the challenge of having to voice 4 sometimes 5 male voices having conversations and doesn’t seem consistent. The main character’s voice is sometimes too goofy and I didn’t like the choice for his partner’s voice. Finally there’s this irritating sound effect that plays between scenes that I think is supposed to sound like slide of a gun (sorry not gun person). But the crimes are stabbings and the sound just doesn’t work.

gun cocking sound

still don't care for the gun cooking sound in between chapters. story line is good. looking forward to the next release on audible.

good read!

loved the flow and pace of the story and great narrator. the story was fast paced and kept you waiting for more.

So entertaining

I laughed so hard while listening to this book and that’s a good thing when you’re listening to a story involving murders. I loved the characters so much. The narrator’s voice kept me interested and allowed me to envision each character as if it were a movie. I can’t wait to listen to more.

Narrator so bad I couldn’t finish

Story seemed good but the irregular volume, bad voice interpretation, loud shutter clicks between chapters and marble clacks between transitions made it unbearable to listen to. I had a literal ear ache after 7 chapters (was listening with ear buds) so I had to stop. Never failed to power through a bad narrator for a good story before, but this was my 1st.
