The Killing Hour

De: Lisa Gardner

Narrado por: Anna Fields

Death always strikes on time.

Each time he strikes, he takes two victims. He waits for the first victim to be discovered—a body containing all the clues investigators need to find the second victim, who counts the seconds to a slow but certain death.

Now two girls have disappeared and the deadly countdown begins again. Rookie FBI agent Kimberly Quincy knows that the killer’s deadline can be met—but she’ll have to break some rules to do it. Joining forces with her father, renowned FBI profiler Pierce Quincy, and his partner, Rainie Conner, Kimberly will begin a dangerous hunt for a predator like none she’s ever seen.

He’s had five years to perfect his game. Now the clock is ticking. For his victims and for Kimberly . . .

Time's up.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"With tight plotting, an ear for forensic detail, and a dash of romance, this is a truly satisfying sizzler in the tradition of Tess Gerritsen and Tami Hoag." (Publishers Weekly)

“[Lisa] Gardner keeps us guessing till the end!” (Los Angeles Times)

Great read!

Great read. At first it moves slowly,but soon picks up. Looking forward to the next book.

Highly predictable

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. If you are a listener that can adapt to various narrators, you'lll be fine.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Killing Hour?

Nothing in particular/

What does Anna Fields bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Nothing in particular.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I listen to most books in the closest I can get to a single sitting.

Any additional comments?

Felt that comments about Narrator were given too much credence. (If you could listen to Roy Dotrice narrate 5 GoT books, you're ready for Anna Fields, and then some.)

Narration Horrible

What didn’t you like about Anna Fields’s performance?

I'm only on chapter 2 , and I can barely listening to her male voice , it's terrible !

Well done, unique!

This book was written for those who think. If you wish for a book where everything is in outline form and the characters are superhuman and above making mistakes this book is not for you;watch a movie instead. The book seemed slow in the beginning as things were developed and then the launch. Well written, interesting story, beleivable characters, real heart... I will read more of her work. Not the book factory standard mystery.

Loved this book!

I have listened to two other of the companion books by Lisa Gardner. I plan on listening to the rest of them as I love the characters in these stories.

Outstanding

Would you consider the audio edition of The Killing Hour to be better than the print version?

Yes

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Her great style of no nonsense right to the point writing

Which scene was your favorite?

All of them she is great The most vivid is the scene in the underground tavern

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The end with the usual twist thrown in

Any additional comments?

I can't say enough about Lisa Gardners style of writing. I have not come across any book of hers that I did not throughly enjoy. I am thrilled she is coming out with a new one in Feb

I was on the edge of my seat.

Brilliant!

Lisa Gardner never fails! Very suspenseful and amazing vivid details! I love her twists and turns!

Grabs you in the first minutes.....

And never quite lets you go. The story is tightly woven, the narrator is great. It was especially interesting to be listening to this book during the first heat wave of the summer here in the Washington DC area:) I'll be sure to check out the author's other offerings.
