Resumen del Editor

One by one, he'll stalk them, then he'll squeeze the trigger, savoring the way each lifeless body crumples to the reddening snow. One down already. And then there were five.... When Detective Regan Pescoli drives to Sheriff Dan Grayson's house to present her resignation, she's prepared for an argument. She's not expecting to find Grayson shot and bleeding out on the frozen ground. The assassination attempt leaves Grayson barely clinging to life and the entire police department of Grizzly Falls, Montana, in shock. Every lawman has enemies, but something about this shooting suggests more than a simple grudge. Now Pescoli feels compelled to stay on the force until the case is solved. She and Detective Selena Alvarez - who is torn between a new relationship and her loyalty to Grayson - work to whittle down the list of suspects. But the deeper they go, the more personal and dangerous the case becomes.

Then a prominent judge's body is found and the killer sends a sinister warning to the press: “Who's Next?” Headstrong and eager for justice, Pescoli has no intention of waiting around to find out. She'll track the scant clues on her own if she has to, but she has no idea where her search will lead.... Two down, four to go... and now Alvarez and Pescoli are at the top of a killer's list. And when hunter meets prey, both must be willing to kill - and ready to die.

Great Series

I love the "To Die" series by Lisa Jackson. This is the 3rd book I have listened to in Audible. I enjoyed book 1 and 3's performance but it was really hard to get into this performance. The reader gave the characters very different voices that were hard to relate to. But the book was otherwise great.

Pretty good story!

I've read most Alvarez/Pescoli books and this is my first listen. The story was good with lots of mystery and suspense and an ending that surprised me. The narration took a little getting used to, this is not what I imagined Pescoli to sound like, but she did a great job differentiating the characters.

Another good listen!

This was a little more low key than others but still really good. Can’t wait to start the next one in the series!

can't wait for more in this series!

as always this continuing series keeps me listening and looking forward to the next!! even though each one has a thrilling conclusion, the continuing story line makes me look forward to the next in the series. even when I was out of sequence I was still enthralled.

Another great book.

This entire series has been fabulous. Just hate that I'm on the last book in the series. Please keep them coming, Lisa.

Alvarez accent

Second book where reader tries to do a Spanish accent. does a poor job, better off without the accent. it wasn't noticeable in previous reads.

ANOTHER GREAT ALVAREZ AND PESCOL THRILLER

Would you listen to Ready to Die again? Why?

Yes. It was very well done and exciting. The best part of these stories is not only the crime work these women do but how they handle their personal lives.

What did you like best about this story?

Their dogged determination to find a killer despite their own problems.

What about Natalie Ross’s performance did you like?

She's excellent - perfect for these women.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

These books grab you and somehow make you completely immersed in the story.

Terrible narration, pretty good story

If you could sum up Ready to Die in three words, what would they be?

Detective Alvarez is Hispanic not Irish!! More than 3 but the accent is very distracting.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Ready to Die?

The very end! I'm not going to spoil it! Read it but I'd recommend again this audio book.

Would you be willing to try another one of Natalie Ross’s performances?

Not if I can help it. Unless she just reads and skips the accents and deep voices. She sounds good otherwise.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Winter can be killer!

Any additional comments?

The narrator should really not try to do accents. The fluctuations between the terrible "Spanish" accent and the false baritone was very distracting from the story. Good but kind of predictable. I love the series so I'll keep reading.
