About this listen

New York Times best seller P. J. Tracy returns with Deep into the Dark, a brand-new series set in LA and featuring up-and-coming LAPD Detective Margaret Nolan and murder suspect Sam Easton.

Sam Easton—a true survivor—is home from Afghanistan, trying to rebuild a life in his hometown of LA. Separated from his wife, bartending and therapy sessions are what occupy his days and nights. When friend and colleague Melody Traeger is beaten by her boyfriend, she turns to Sam for help. When the boyfriend turns up dead the next day, a hard case like Sam is the perfect suspect.

But LAPD Detective Margaret Nolan, whose brother recently died serving overseas, is sympathetic to Sam's troubles, and can't quite see him as a killer. She's more interested in the secrets Melody might be keeping and the developments in another murder case on the other side of town.

Set in an LA where real people live and work—not the superficial LA of Beverly Hills or the gritty underbelly of the city—Deep into the Dark features two really engaging, dynamic main characters and explores the nature of obsession, revenge, and grief.

P. J. Tracy is known for her "fast, fresh, and funny" characters (Harlan Coben) and her "sizzling" plots (People); the Monkeewrench series was her first, set in Minneapolis and co-written with her mother. Now with Deep into the Dark she's on her own—and it's a home run.

I'm a definite Monkeewrench fan, but this is a whole nother can of tuna.
Just finished Deep.
I must say I was hesitant, but no longer.
Darker, yes.
Complex characters, yes.
Not at all Monkeewrench, but that's what makes it a success.
Brava !
Jump in and entertain your dark self.

Had to stop at chap 3 of the Audible and pick up a physical book. This narrator is downright dreadful,

The nex-et bahdee of worKK to be ex-eck-you-teddd... thatt was fu-kneee.

I think this might possibly be the very worst narrator I've ever listened to. Poor Tracy, their novel was butchered in this recording.

Narrator is awful, get the physical book

I don't actually know how good the story is because I can't stand this narrator. I might be able to read it, but I can't listen to it.

Terrible narrator

Ms. Craven has a sort of prissy, old fashioned intonation, which would work in other storylines, but not this one. I felt like Sam’s mother was narrating and found it very distracting.

That said, I am a fan of PJ. Tracy and really liked the story. Looking forward to what comes next.

Liked the book but not the preformamce

a trudged through the first third of the book kind of confused sometimes about which character was which but by the time you hit the midpoint it gets great

slow to start but great second half

I found this tough to get through. Early on, I just couldn’t make myself care about the characters. I realized it was not the characters but the way they were characterized by the narration. The last part seemed to improve so, perhaps the narrator finally connected.
Anyway, it was OK but not the best. I might give the author one more try.

The story might have been better with a different narrator

It took a long time to get into this and causally care about the characters. The narrator could have been so much better cast.

Story start slow but gets better

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

I was disappointed. The story telling waw choppy. Not always sure where characters fit in. The story rambled around a lot.

disappointing return for PJ Tracy.
