Hope to Die

DS Nathan Cody, Book 2

De: David Jackson

Narrado por: Jonathan Keeble

When the victim seems perfect, is it the perfect crime? The gripping new serial killer thriller from the runaway best-selling author of Cry Baby.

On a bitterly cold winter's night, Liverpool is left stunned by a brutal murder in the grounds of the city's Anglican Cathedral. A killer is on the loose, driven by a chilling rage.

Put on the case, DS Nathan Cody is quickly stumped. Wherever he digs, the victim seems to be almost angelic - no one has a bad word to say, let alone a motive for such a violent murder.

And Cody has other things on his mind, too. The ghosts of his past are coming ever closer, and - still bearing the physical and mental scars - it's all he can do to hold on to his sanity.

And then the killer strikes again....

Chilling thriller!

Storytelling at its best. The story had me hooked from the first page.
A chilling thriller with interesting twists and turns, and interesting characters.
Narration is very good

This turned out to be the thinking
detective vs the thinking suspect.
Lots of other stuff going on but
the author keeps us focused on
outsmarting the criminal. This
volume follows the first in series
volume I just read. I think reading these two in order is a big
help in making vol 2 such a really
good listen. Now I'm impatient for vol. 3. This work is good and it has the potential to be really, really good. Good author and
fine narrator. :-)

Had Us Guessing Until the Very End

Ok, what’s next for DS Nathan Cody? Enjoyed second book even more than the first. Great job, David Jackson, and congratulations to Jonathan Keeble for bringing it all to life.

Gripping story read by the best narrator ever!!

More than just a reader, the narrator of this book is an actor! How great it is to have an intriguing story read with feeling, approriate inflection, recognition of subtle humor, and so much more. I’m done with readers who only read and mispronouce, or fail to recognize a sentence continues on the next page, etc etc.
So what about the story? Unexpected, great character development, plausible events, emotional highs and lows, suspense and well, just extraordinary imo!

Almost but not quite?

I think the narrator was what spoiled this for me—His interpretation was distracting , somehow made the characters seem unnecessarily corny—maybe best read in print!

Couldn't stop listening!

Another well written book. Nail biting from start to finish. Can't wait for book 3 in the series.

A good solid follow up to the first one

Jackson is very good at writing tension. This book is not as good as the first but I like the story much better. The characters are well written, especially Cody, you really care for them and feel their emotions.

great series

If you love a good copper caper with interesting characters, this is a good British series.

Great book!

It was a great book to listen to. I really enjoy the characters and the follow on from the previous book in the series. There is good dialogue and the story is engaging. I got very excited to get in the car to continue listening. I highly recommend it. If you haven't read or listened to the first book you should check that out first. The performance was spectacular. One of the best.

Great narration of this book

Looking forward to book three of this series! The narrator brought life to the author's words.
