"Action packed and razor sharp - Jack Reacher would love Nikki Griffin." (Lee Child, number-one New York Times best-selling author of Past Tense)

S.A. Lelchuk’s Save Me from Dangerous Men marks the beginning of a gripping new series and the launch of a fabulous new character. Nikki Griffin is a kick-ass character who listeners will root for as she seeks to right the world's wrongs.

Nikki Griffin isn't your typical private investigator. In her office above her bookstore’s shelves and stacks, where she luxuriates in books and the comfort they provide, she also tracks certain men. Dangerous men. Men who have hurt the women they claim to love. And Nikki likes to teach those men a lesson, to teach them what it feels like to be hurt and helpless, so she can be sure that their victims are safe from them forever.

When a regular PI job tailing Karen, a tech company's disgruntled employee who might be selling secrets, turns ugly and Karen's life is threatened, Nikki has to break cover and intervene. Karen tells Nikki that there are people after her. Dangerous men. She says she'll tell Nikki what's really going on. But then something goes wrong, and suddenly, Nikki is no longer just solving a case - she's trying hard to stay alive.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Save Me from Dangerous Men is one of those rare thrillers that draws you in so relentlessly that you find yourself getting kicked out of bed and reading all night on the sofa. If you’re a fan of Jack Reacher or Lisbeth Salander, you are gonna love Nikki Griffin." (Douglas Preston, number-one New York Times best-selling coauthor of the acclaimed Pendergast series)

"Narrator January LaVoy introduces listeners to Nikki Griffin, the unforgettable, multidimensional heroine of a new action-packed series...Well worth the listen!" (AudioFile magazine)

Very well done

I am hard of hearing, and women's voices are the most difficult to understand, which limits some of my selections. January is one of the female narrators that I can clearly understand. She is wonderful.
The story is one I always like, women fighting back against a-holes. Men that abuse women should be put in their place.Nikki is tough and smart, relentless in her intensity.
One thing I will never understand; why do so many heroines/heroes blame themselves for all the bad that happens. Things that are clearly not their fault haunt them.
All in all a quality listen, will be looking for more.

aMaZing !!

This book hit all the feels for me. A witty sarcastic woman who knows how to defend herself / part vigilante and part best friend. This book made me want to know this woman Nikki and invite her over for drinks. The book moves so quickly, love that! But not so quickly that you can't keep up. Can't praise this book and narration enough - its one of my favs this year!

Gripping story, amazing narration

Really enjoyed this one. It was an exciting page-turner with fun characters (think Raymond Chandler for the digital age and the #metoo era). January LaVoy's narration was superb too. I couldn't put it down...finished it in two days!

Choices. We all have them.

I’m hooked on “Save Me From Dangerous Men” by exceptional S.A. Lelchuk. Nikki Griffin, a exquisite PI with a secret vendetta against abusive men, is a fascinating lead character. When a routine case turns deadly, Nikki must use her skills to stay alive and uncover the truth. January LaVoy's narration brings the story to life with perfect pacing and tone. With twists and turns at every corner, I was completely absorbed in the story. January LaVoy's narration is, as always, phenomenal. The plot is expertly crafted, with surprises and twists that kept me guessing. Subplots are deftly created with perfection. A riveting experience from start to finish, I'd highly recommend this book to fans of suspense and intrigue. Epic, indeed!

Excellent addition to the Dragon Tattoo genre

Lots of tumult. A little repetitive. Outstanding narration. A fun listen if you don’t object to a host of cracked heads.

Amazing! Can't put it down!

I rarely read books quickly. But I read this book straight through! It is thoughtful, action-packed and filled with amazing literary references and spot-on descriptions of Bay Area daily life. I would recommend it to anyone!!!

super fun story line - great characters

Really enjoyed storyline and how the characters meshed. Narrator perfect for story. Demographics very believable

Good female narrator!

Excellent story, both with action and thoughtfulness. And finally a woman who reads well without sounding whiny.

I don't know

An interesting story but the pacing is slow. Nikki spends too much time in her head second imagining every possible scenario that can happen. There's also too much attention to detail. At one point, she describes, in detail, a custodian emptying a trash can. Really? There are several other examples in which the story gets stuck. Overall, the plot was and so were the characters. If I get the next book, at least I'll know what to expect.

love the narration

Love the narrator, she can do so many voices, but it took way too long to get to the plot
