Anything for You

A Novel

By: Saul Black

Narrated by: Christina Delaine

"Hard as nails detective novel, satisfyingly twisted story, and the writing is sharp as the devil." -- Stephen King

Critically acclaimed author Saul Black returns with a heart-racing thriller in which a brutal murder forces one woman to reckon with her own past—and her future.

On a hot summer night, a watchful neighbor locks eyes with an intruder and unwittingly alerts the police to a vicious crime scene next door: a lavish master bedroom where a man lies dead. Next to him, his wife is bleeding out onto the hardwood floor, clinging to life.

The victim, Adam Grant, was a well-known San Francisco prosecutor—a man whose connection to Homicide detective Valerie Hart brings her face-to-face with a life she’s long since left behind. Adam’s career made him an easy target, and forensic evidence points towards an ex-con he put behind bars years ago. But while Adam’s wife and daughter grapple with their tragic loss, Valerie uncovers devastating clues that point in a more ominous direction. Lurking in the shadows of the Grants’ pristine life is a mysterious blonde who holds the key to a very different—and much darker—story.

As Valerie struggles to forge a new path for herself, the investigation forces her to confront the question: can we ever really leave our pasts behind?

Sophisticated and stunning, Anything for You is an unforgettable thriller that will grip readers long after turning the last page.

The first two were better

This book was just alright for me, nothing too great and the first 2 in the series were a lot better. they definitely had what it takes to pull you in and I felt this one was pretty lackluster. Nothing different or new

His Best Yet

This was my favorite of the Valerie Hart series so far. Such a great story with lots of unpredictable twists and turns. While I found the reader a little over dramatic in the first part of the novel (it felt like she was leaning into the character of Catherine from Love Murder a little too much), she toned it down as it went on. Highly recommend!

Boring for me

I'm sure this book is fabulous for other people who are into this genre that I love this book I just found a little boring it took too long you saw everything kind of happening it just wasn't as good as some of his other work but worth the Read if you're bored

First time listening to the author

Not my kind of story, hard to follow the story line.
I didn’t care for it.

Not as good as first two

I have 3 hours left, it's been hard to get into. The self-loathing and explicit sex in the first two were often unnecessary to include but hey it's human. This book, it seems way to excessive. Valerie hasn't grown at all as a character, to the point where I think *I* need a shrink to handle her problems. Every time the murder mystery is on a good beat it derails into 10 or 15 minutes of Valerie self-hating monologuing or other self-destructive behavior. I like the author and will finish this title, but I won't pursue the Valerie Hart series any further.
