Allander Atlasia is an infamous psychopath whose heinous crimes have earned him a lifetime stay at the Tower, the world's most extreme maximum-security prison. But after a brilliant and brutal escape, the criminal mastermind begins a killing spree that is intensely personal. Jade Marlow is an ex-FBI profiler and tracker whose fearlessness is only surpassed by the severity of his own inner demons. With a record of irrational behavior and a genius for putting himself into the mind of a criminal predator, he may be the one man diabolical enough to catch Atlasia.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,596
Meet Jake Oliver. The day will come when he's one of the best cleaners in the business, a man skilled at making bodies disappear. At the moment, however, he's a 22 year old rookie cop, unaware his life is about to change. In a burning barn a body is found--and the fire isn't the cause of death. The detectives working the case have a pretty good idea about what went down. But Officer Oliver thinks it's something else entirely, and pursues a truth others would prefer remain hidden - others who will go to extreme lengths to keep him quiet.

Her estranged father, the local medical examiner, has had a massive heart attack. At the hospital, she finds her father in near total denial of the seriousness of his condition.

Highly Reccommend
This was my first read of a John Lutz Book. I mainly ordered it because of Scott Brick. I was not disappointed by either. I did not figure it out until the very end although there was quite a bit of misdirection on the author’s part. Anyway, I will continue listen to Lutz and definitely continue to listen to Scott Brick.

An Amazing Psychological Suspense Thriller
And it takes a lot to take me to the edge. It takes me a lot no tot be able to put a book down...period. But this book had it all. I began to figure out the main plot about half way through but even then i had to wait for confirmation on all i suspected. WOW i can't say enough about being carried away with absolute mystery. Da da da da- That all folks, you will have to read this book to get what i mean. And as usual - thank you Scott Brick for such a great narration!

A good listen
This was my first book by this author and i enjoyed it. I generally read crime fiction and this was entertaining. Good characters and plot etc. There were a couple week points here and there where i didn't quite buy the circumstances (one in particular near the end) but on the whole, i liked this story. The narration was good too.

A real thriller that ends with a fizzle...
This is a story involving the complicated and interesting life of several evil people, a falsely accused ex-cop and two misfit homicide partners. There's bad cops in high places, a truly evil killer, and for much of the book they have the upper hand.
The hunt I involves good police work under dark political clouds. All of this has the making of a 5 star story. However, at the conclusion we are left with less than 15 minutes of explanation which left much to be explained.
Scott Brick deserves 5 stars on this one.

Best new author for me
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes - keeps you on the edge of your seat - lovely little twist at the end.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Darker Than Night?
The twist
What does Scott Brick bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I enjoy listening to books as I drive - had to go around the block a couple of times to get to a place where I could stop
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
?
Any additional comments?
This is a first time "listen" to this author - won't be the last.

Too much
I very much enjoy modern detective novels. I enjoy listening to Scott Brick as the narrator of many of the books available on Audible. This is the first time in probably 200 books that I've enjoyed that I turned it off within the first hour of the book. Too graphic of sex, murder, thoughts of the characters, etc. In my opinion it was too much.
