Chaser

Jacqueline "Jack" Daniels Mystery, Book 18

De: J.A. Konrath

Narrado por: Dani McIntyre

Retired cop Jacqueline "Jack" Daniels and her ex-criminal husband Phineas Troutt have made a lot of enemies over the years. But none worse than The Cowboy, a gunslinging nutcase who wants to slaughter them both, and Hugo Troutt, a gang leader who has been plotting revenge against his younger brother for over a decade.

Separately, these baddies are formidable. Together, they are unstoppable.

But Jack has even more hell to deal with. She and her former partner, private eye Harry McGlade, are in L.A. chasing an insane plastic surgeon who specializes in disfiguring his victims. And Jack's colleague Tom Mankowski has problems of his own with a snuff film auteur named Erinyes.

With four psychopaths on the prowl, Jack, Phin, Harry, and Tom will need to call on some old friends if they hope to get out of LaLa Land alive....

This thirteenth Jack Daniels novel brings together villains from Konrath's thrillers White Russian, Everybody Dies, and Webcam, along with heroes from Shot of Tequila, The List, What Happened to Lori, and Flee, for the ultimate West Coast showdown.

The hunt is on. But who's hunting whom?

If you are a more sensitive (or adventurous) listener, this handy scale rates specific categories from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest) to give you some idea if this is your kind of book.

Loved it!!!

Thought because I hadn’t read the other books some of the characters are in I wasn’t going to understand who the characters were but ended up falling in love with some of them. Makes me want to read their back stories.

Jackie is back!

Wasn’t sure I like it at first but the story developed really well and I enjoyed it a lot. Jack is back! and I am thrilled about that. The narrations seemed a little Flat and monotone in places. The narrator did distinguish the voice as well but they in between the voices it was just kind of monotone. But shes better than the guy. I wish the original girl who did the first books would return.

Narrator & Jack

Please no more whiny Jack. I wish you would go back to the narrators that you used in the first few books of this series.

He's a giant train of talent.

This is one more great story. You know it can happen and he mixes his insane comedy with the macabre and I finish one and start another.

This narrator is awful

I love these books, but the new narrator is awful. Just awful. All the characters sound the same, except for the ones that she gives horrible southern/western accents.
