A serial killer stalks women in rural Ohio. He is deranged but brilliant, known only by the grotesque nickname the media has given him - The Doll Parts Killer. The name is apt. He dismembers his victims and leaves them in garbage bags in public places. A residential neighborhood. Next to a roller rink. Behind a Burger King. The investigation is a disaster. No physical evidence. Unreliable witnesses. To make matters worse, the FBI has lost contact with the star profiler working the case.

It introduces a colorful new hero for our time - and a dazzling heroine every bit his equal. A spy mystery...a crime thriller...a passionate romance: Hunter is a genre-bending novel unlike any you've read. Deviously plotted, filled with vivid characters, and propelled at a breakneck pace.

Good story but too politically biased
The plot was good and the storyline was equal to the other books in the series. The negatives were a few completely unnecessary diatribes on the Citizens United Supreme Court decision and the Left's/Hollywood's typical and easily anticipated boogie man. It was laughable how the author proclaims the main character, Mac, to be an independent, apolitical thinker, but the only reasonable politicians were those who share viewpoints with democrats. Disappointing.

Excellent
Would you listen to Electing To Murder again? Why?
I don't generally read or listen to books more than once. This one was very good though so I might consider it.
What other book might you compare Electing To Murder to and why?
Might be a mix between a Dan Brown book where there is a lot of action and a Grisham book for the story.
What does Johnny Peppers bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Mr. Peppers does excellent voices for the characters. He has a calming, smooth voice as the narrator.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes. I spent hours at a time listening and waiting for the time I could listen again.
Any additional comments?
Stelljes is a very good writer and Peppers bring his characters to life. A great partnership and I can't wait for the next one.

Why bring partisan politics into the story?
This novel, like the others in this marvelous crime thriller series, probably deserves 5 stars, but the author unnecessarily decided to bring partisan politics into the story in a "preachy manner". I down rated the novel one star due to the political angle.
I am not listening to the 5th and most recent book in the McRyan mystery series and the partisan politics are not there, This is a wonderful series and the narration is also outstanding.

Another Winner in This Series
I'm reading this series in order with several others in-between. I continue to like Mac and the other characters in his life. Nice, comfortable love story without a lot of graphic sex scenes. Lots of murders, again no gratuitous violent descriptions.
This plot was far-fetched (St Paul cop and fired FBI agent involved in a presidential race). But still a fun read.
Look forward to the next in a few months.
Narration was fine, although I had difficulty remembering what voice went with which character.

Fun Story, but come on...
I read fiction to get away from the divisive politics that dominates news programs. I'm quite educated & have my own views on Campaign Super PACs, etc. This story was fun, but I tired of the preaching by 3/4 of the way through the story.

Electing to Murder
Would you listen to Electing to Murder again? Why?
No!! BORING
If you’ve listened to books by Roger Stelljes before, how does this one compare?
The bottom of the list.
Which scene was your favorite?
There wasn't any! 😕
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I did but only because I wanted to get through it!!
Any additional comments?

Excellent and somewhat prophetic story line
Loved story line. The variety of challenges for the "good guys" was well thought out. The only downside for me was a redundancy of words and situations. The editors should have pared down the repeats of the story lines. In all an entertaining listen.
