Tom Thorne Series, Book 14

De: Mark Billingham

Narrado por: Sagar Arya, Mark Billingham, Avita Jay

DI Nicola Tanner needs Tom Thorne's help. Her partner, Susan, has been brutally murdered, and Tanner is convinced that it was a case of mistaken identity - that she was the real target. The murderer's motive might have something to do with Tanner's recent work on a string of cold-case honor killings she believes to be related. Tanner is now on compassionate leave but insists on pursuing the case off the books and knows Thorne is just the man to jump into the fire with her. He agrees but quickly finds that working in such controversial territory is dangerous in more ways than one. And when a young couple goes missing, they have a chance to investigate a case that is anything but cold. Racing towards a twist-filled ending, Love Like Blood is another feat of masterful plotting from one of Britain's top crime novelists.

Best story in Thom Thorne series

And that's saying A LOT!! I have no need to tell anyone how well written this series is.. absolutely great stories, character development that never jumps sharks, and exceptional dialogue, which so many procedural series struggle with. At any rate, this is the absolute most interesting story in the series! It's such a fresh "twist" that it is so great WITHOUT being dependent on a twist. It's not a mystery at all, it stands compelling and a 'just one more chapter' listen on plain good writing. The primary narrator, I think the author himself, reads Hendricks with a delightfully sexy voice!! Exactly how I'd imagine him sounding. Anyway, all thumbs up and HIGHLY recommend!!!
