Publisher's summary

When Amber Young, a quiet, brilliant newspaper puzzle editor, detects a hidden cypher, she realizes a serial killer is leaving clues hidden in plain sight. The FBI’s BAU unit needs Amber’s unique genius to help them decode the mystery and catch a killer before it’s too late, and in this propulsive cat-and-mouse thriller, it’s a battle of clues, riddles, twists—and genius.

Absent Pity is book one in a long-anticipated new series by number one best seller and USA Today best-selling author Blake Pierce, whose best seller Once Gone (a free download) has received more than 7,000 five-star ratings and reviews.

Amber Young, shy, reclusive, prefers to avoid the limelight and quietly do her puzzle work for her newspaper. But when she finds herself at the center of a manhunt for a deadly killer, she realizes her unique genius may just mean the difference between life and death for the next victim. With a life on the line, it will require of all Amber’s brilliance to outsmart a genius, diabolical killer intent on proving his smarts and taunting the FBI.

Will Amber outsmart him?

Or might she end up the next victim?

A harrowing crime thriller featuring a brilliant and tortured FBI agent, the Amber Young series is a riveting mystery, packed with nonstop action, suspense, twists and turns, and revelations and driven by a breakneck pace that will keep you listening late into the night. Fans of Rachel Caine, Teresa Driscoll, and Robert Dugoni are sure to fall in love.

Future books in the series are now available.

Game are not an end in and of themselves

(As posted on Goodreads)
The topic and description make it sound somewhat simplistic, but it's actually kind of fun. And it demonstrates different uses for seemingly limited strengths. The maina character shows indecisiveness, but she ends up with sound decisions.
Quick book, and no overall stretches of the imagination or reality. I liked it.

Horrible narrator! Don't buy this title

I should have listened to other reviewers... The narration on this one is horrible! A British accent with each word slowly, precisely spit out just ruined whatever story might have been passable. Even speeded up, the story was too lame to overcome the narration. Skip it!
