De: Michael Lister

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Someone is killing cops—with their own guns.

From award-winning author Michael Lister comes A CERTAIN RETRIBUTION, the electrifying sequel to THUNDER BEACH—a gripping small-town thriller where justice bends, secrets run deep, and nothing is what it seems.

Welcome to Wewa

A place where everybody knows your name.
Your past.
Your business.

And what you’ve done.

Or think they do.

A killer with a message

Police officers are turning up dead—
murdered with their own weapons.

No witnesses.
No clear motive.
No pattern anyone can crack.

Until Merrick McKnight starts asking questions.

A past returns. A partnership begins.

“I see her for the first time in over twenty years the night before she’ll be arrested.”

Reggie Summers walks back into Merrick’s life—and into the center of a case that will change everything.

Together, they dig into a web of buried secrets, old wounds, and quiet resentments that never really died.

Because in a town like this…
justice isn’t always blind.

Small-town justice. Deadly consequences.

The deeper they go, the clearer it becomes:

This isn’t random.
This isn’t over.

And the truth—when it comes—won’t look anything like justice.

Sometimes, the best you can hope for…
is a certain kind of retribution.

A thriller with heart, history, and high stakes

Set in Michael Lister’s own hometown of Wewahitchka, this novel blends:

• A twist-filled mystery

Great plot twists

The story was great but the narration was awful. Full of mis pronunciations and the word "dash" was said at least once a sentence so it really took away from the experience. Doesn't anyone listen/edit these before publishing?
