Publisher's Summary

Kadan Montague - a genetically enhanced warrior - is called back from an important assignment in Europe to investigate a series of brutal murders. The suspect is a fellow GhostWalker and, if he isn't found, the entire GhostWalker program will be swept under the carpet, putting the lives of Kadan and all other GhostWalkers in jeopardy.

Kadan turns to Tansy Meadows, an elite tracker, to help him hunt down the killer before he can strike again. Tansy's last job landed her in a hospital for six months but Kadan has no choice but to bring her on board. And he soon finds that with Tansy comes an entirely new set of problems.

Murder Game

The book captures an intense excitement of characters in the Ghost Walker series. Although I wish most audio books would have two voices to distinguish male and female, the narrator does an excellent job showing feeling into his voice. It is a must listen to book.

Domestic Abuse wearing the thin veil of ”Romance”

I hate the hero. Anyone who has ever experienced abuse is likely to recognize their abuser in the so-called Hero. This book alternately pissed me off and caused me anxiety. Generally I can enjoy the touch of dominance in this series..not this one! It's a classic blueprint in victim shaming and blaming.

Murder Game

Awesome Book!!! If you are familiar with her work, and this series, you will not be disappointed. The narrator does a great job, as he always does.
Great story, Great spice, Great job !!!!

Can’t stand controlling men

Just don’t understand why people like this. What’s so hot about an abusive, pushy man? Nothing.

Ok

Book was OK. This is the first book in the series that I have listen to. And although I would like to know what happened with the other characters that I have met in this book, I’m not sure if I will listen to the rest of the series. Whereas I liked the storyline of the book and trying to catch the killer the repetitiveness of the inner thoughts and the insecurities of the main characters was VERY annoying. The book would have been much shorter & more enjoyable without it. Also not a fan of insta-love. And although & get the the H was “programmed” to want the h, being desperately in love with each other after only knowing each other for 24 hours is silly.

Loved it

Just finised reading this new one, now I am downloading for a listen! Lots of sex and suspense.

This series just keeps getting better

Would you consider the audio edition of Murder Game to be better than the print version?

Unfortunatly I haven't read the book but Tom Stechschulte (the narrorater) is one of the best I've ever heard.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Murder Game?

Everthing!

Which character – as performed by Tom Stechschulte – was your favorite?

He really brings the men to life

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Laugh yes, cry no but it does make you sad.

Sophmoric Sexuality Stifles Story

I enjoyed the opening scene, and the narrator had a delightful edginess that moved the story forward, but the relentless, inconsequential, silly sex scenes disrupted the narrative. I wanted to fast-forward through them to the story but found there was so much of it that I kept bumping into the next sex scene! I have been an Audible member for over 8 years and have 200 books (give or take) in my library, this is the first one that I felt was a real waste of money. If you want a good high-tech thriller, there are *a lot* that are better, if you want erotica you would have to search for a long time to find one worse; the sex scenes were misogynistic, trite, repetitive, and ultimately boring. Two stars was generous in my view, I liked the base concept and enjoyed what the author did with the genetic enhancement plot string otherwise I would have given this book 1 star. Don't waste your money or credits on this selection, there are much better to be found.

Chapters are off

When my screen showed I was on chapter 6 the narration said I was at chapter 11.

great

luved the plot, the anticipation of who is who and the sex, wow. luv it

Super Sexy Super Thrilling !!!!!!!!!!!

I have been super obsessed with the men of the ghostWalkers teams since the very first book Shadow Game and this book does not disappoint. There was always a couple of Ghostwalkers I was a little bit more in love with than the rest , one being the super sexy, super charming and lethal Gator Fontenot hero of Night Games and now Kadan Montague compelling, dominant and deadly, polar opposite to Gator but just as tempting . As I will keep saying load and proudly, I love all Christine Feehan’s ghostwalkers and all the men I have met so far through these books have something in their personalities that can only be described as sensually sexy. Equally to complete a romance you need the right heroine, for the right ghostwalker. She has to be equally as alluring and sensual as her male counter-part, we need to believe in her character and maybe see small reflections of women we might know, simply put we need to be able to relate, which CF achieve seamlessly with plots and subplots that are convincing exciting and take you a world of entertainment for hours. I have both read and listened to all the books of this series more than once and find the narrator everything I want in the voice of these series.

I love the inter-play between Kadan and Tansy and the choice CF made to show what gentle and tender strength in a heroine can produce in a romance with an extremely dominate male. Tansy could only be exceptionally strong to track a group of genetically enhance serial killers without losing herself completely to such horrors and only a man as dominant as Kadan could command that she return to him no matter what and without acceptance, giving up and giving in was not an option.

What can I say I loved all of it plots, subplots, characters. Murder game was a thrilling, nail biting edge of the seat ride filled with passion, revelations, friendship and loyalty. No disappointment here, loved the book, loved the narration, love the series . MORE PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Murder Game

Another Christine Feehan masterclass in writing a very bloody thriller spiced up with sex and very erotic dialogue. The narrator was extremely good, providing emotion and inflection in his voice to emphasise the thrills and chills in the plot. Being English you have to get over the American accent but once you adjust to tuning it out you can get into living the tale and having read a number of the Ghostwalker books you can get right into the theme. Characters as usual are interesting the men as usual strong,, mean and sexy however sometimes the female element leaves a bit to be desired in that they are a little weak. However you can get over that by immersing yourself in the plot which is full of twists. Great listen anyway.
