Close Enough to Kill

By: Beverly Barton

Narrated by: Daniela Acitelli

A beautiful sheriff tracks a serial killer through small town Alabama in the New York Times bestselling author's "fun and satisfying" romantic thriller (Publishers Weekly).

He's their secret admirer, wooing them with phone calls, love letters, and special gifts. From a distance, he admires them. Desires them. Despises them. And when he gets close enough, he kills them all.

Adams County, Alabama, is a friendly place where everyone knows each other—but not well enough, it seems. Someone among them is a serial killer who first romances, then stalks, kidnaps, and kills his victims. It's the first big case for sheriff Bernie Granger, and a chance to prove herself to her new partner, Memphis police detective Jim Norton. But this killer is uncannily smart. It's as if he knows what Bernie is thinking. And his next move is more than shocking—it's chillingly personal.

Contains mature themes.

Good story

Very bad narrator. Everyone sounded like they were mentally challenged. All the women sounded like dumb blonds and all the men sounded like women. It was hard to keep track of who was speaking. Story line was excellent though.

I should have read the reviews

The narrator was the worst I’ve ever listened to. I think I would have maybe given the story a better rating if I could have enjoyed listening to it.

Interesting. Detailed account of a serial killer who rapes and tortures. It kept my interest.

The narrators voice sounded like she was on slow record. It was weird. And she was kind of whiney.

what a writer!

Beverly barton is an amazing writer! keeps you interested, on edge and invested in the characters

Great book monotone narrator

The book is great, but the narrator voice is so monotone that make want to sleep and frustrated me, I was like lady put some emotion to it.
