Killing State

De: Judith O'Reilly

Narrado por: Nick Holbek

The bullet in his brain isn't the problem. She is.

Michael North is a hero, with a bullet in the brain to prove it. A bullet which has rewired his neural pathways and heightened his sense of intuition. A bullet which is driving him mad.

Working for an extra-governmental agency called The Board, North knows one thing for sure. He is very good at killing very bad guys. But what happens when a hero is ordered to kill a good woman rather than a bad man? Because it turns out that rising political star, Honor Jones, MP, can't stop asking the right questions about the wrong people. He should follow orders. Shouldn't he?

"High-octane... Great debut." (Sunday Times Crime Club)

Twist and Turns

This novel covers just of a weeks timeline, but my how things can change in a week. There were parts that were very graphic, but it was part of the lives being portrayed and it passed quickly enough. The story had lots of twists and turns, and sometimes it was hard to keep straight how all the characters were related, but then the story would press on. A great listen.

Very good - great plot and excellent narration.

Lots of twists and turns with good characters. Looking forward to more from the author.

Too hard to follow

I tried. It started out fine - I liked the premise and the characters and the narrator is great. After a while though the story got convoluted and the action scenes were sooooo long and overly described. I lost the plot. Usually if I make it halfway through a book I’ll finish it regardless but I quit this one at 75%.
