When the Corn Is Waist High

De: Jeremy Scott

Narrado por: Thom Rivera

Father Solomon Lancaster—the town's dry-witted sheriff and priest at the community Catholic church—finds himself on the forefront of an investigation into a series of murders. Soon, he's fighting to match wits with the serial killer terrorizing his town while trying to justify his law-enforcement credentials to the FBI as their analysts and profilers take Crooked Creek, Indiana, by storm. But Father Solomon is hiding secrets of his own. Ones that threaten to rise to the surface as the murders continue and the investigation draws nearer to the truth. As the killer begins to escalate, Father Solomon finds that even the innocent have dark sides and trust might be the deadliest weapon of all.

Couldn't stop listening!

Unbelievably, found myself rooting for the bad guy. I love dry sarcastic humor and this book it full of it.

Crazy

This book was incredible. It starts very slow but then has the biggest twist you would never see coming. Really enjoyed this listen

read or listen just get the story

holy fuck this book was great. definitely glad I happened upon this story here like I did

The good, the bad, the Evil

Really entertaining and scary story about a killer in the Midwest. This book makes you laugh, cringe, and think about the evil we live with. A very good narrator sets the scene.

Thrilling!

I loved this book when I first read it and I loved it even more listening to it. Jeremy does a wonderful job building the story up to its crescendo, giving us just enough to want to know what's going to happen next.

The narrator did a wonderful job voice Lancaster and the rest of the characters, giving us insight in clear concise tones.

Enjoyable

What does might be no literary extravaganza but it was enjoyable. Some surprises that make it worth continuing on. It was a fun book

Annoyed by small errors easily researched

The story is inventive and the narrator is fine. But silly things that could be researched kept yanking me out of the story. One example: an FBI agent leader is referred to as "lieutenant."

Twisty!

Wow! Did not see this coming at all! I ready a lot of thrillers and usually figure it out but not this time!

Wonderful dark humor

I bought this as a daily deal not expecting much. As others have said, WOW just WOW truly entertaining, It's hard to say much without spoilers, so go along with all the good reviews this book is worth a credit.

A Deranged Serial Killer

The derogatory portrayal of a Catholic priest had him commuting adultery, frequently cursing, and playing loose with the sanctity of the confessional. He also served a the local sheriff. I nearly quit listening to the book.

The book also portrays the FBI as inept and bombastic.

The ending was entirely unexpected.
