Killing Sarai

A Novel (In the Company of Killers)

By: J. A. Redmerski

Narrated by: Kate Reinders, Stephen Bel Davies

Sarai was only fourteen when her mother uprooted her to live in Mexico with a notorious drug lord. Over time she forgot what it was like to live a normal life, but she never let go of her hope to escape the compound where she has been held for the past nine years. Victor is a cold-blooded assassin who, like Sarai, has known only death and violence since he was a young boy. When Victor arrives at the compound to collect details and payment for a hit, Sarai sees him as her only opportunity for escape. But things don't go as planned and instead of finding transport back to Tucson, she finds herself free from one dangerous man and caught in the clutches of another. While on the run, Victor strays from his primal nature as he succumbs to his conscience and resolves to help Sarai. As they grow closer, he finds himself willing to risk everything to keep her alive; even his relationship with his devoted brother and liaison, Niklas, who now like everyone else wants Sarai dead. As Victor and Sarai slowly build a trust, the differences between them seem to lessen, and an unlikely attraction intensifies. But Victor's brutal skills and experience may not be enough in the end to save her, as the power she unknowingly holds over him may ultimately be what gets her killed.

Omg loved this book!!!

This was a great listen. Can't wait to listen to the second book. Hope it's as good as the first.

Suspenseful

This book has suspense and romance, but it just seemed to be missing something. Perhaps it was the audible, I found the voice narration to carry a very young sounding retelling that to me just didn't mesh with the age of Sarai. It isn't horrible, it just doesn't harmonize for me.

LOVED!!!!

wow I waited way too long to listen to this!!! what an amazing story!!! cannot wait to jump into the next. I love Victor and Sarai

Sarai’s story is compelling. As a character, she is strong and resilient despite any and all circumstances thrown her way, from sex slavery to keeping company with contract killers. Unfortunately, the narrators do not do the book any credit. If you have KU and can get the cheap add on, go for it. Otherwise, read the book.

DNF drags

The heroine annoyed me. I tried to think of her as 16 instead of 23 because her life was so limited. But while I was trying to like her, I focused on the plot. And because I wasn’t at all entertained by her inner thoughts, I was impatient with figuring things out before they happened which I don’t normally care about. I skipped to the last 5 chapters and still didn’t care about the heroine so I give up. I bet someone else would love this book - there’s nothing wrong with it. But maybe the reader has to be a ya or teenager.
