The Monet Murders

The Art of Murder, Book 2

De: Josh Lanyon

Narrado por: Kale Williams

Jason West and Sam Kennedy are back!

All those late night conversations when Sam had maybe a drink too many or Jason was half falling asleep. All those playful, provocative comments about what they'd do when they finally met up again.

Well, here they were.

The last thing Jason West, an ambitious young FBI Special Agent with the Art Crimes Team, wants - or needs - is his uncertain and unacknowledged romantic relationship with irascible legendary Behavioral Analysis Unit Chief Sam Kennedy.

And it's starting to feel like Sam is not thrilled with the idea either.

But personal feelings must be put aside when Sam requests Jason's help to catch a deranged killer targeting wealthy, upscale art collectors. A killer whose calling card is a series of grotesque paintings depicting the murders.

Superb

Fantastic, Brilliant, Entertaining. Gripping, Thrilling, Romantic, Absorbing. Engaging. Mysterious comes to mind when describing The Monet Murders.

Faultless comes to mind when describing Kale Williams narration.

Began listening to this addicting series through Hoopla . They have book 1 , 3 and 4 available to borrow. It's more than likely I will end up buying this series - hopefully they are included in their 2 for 1 deal - though Audible to have it on my personal Library.

Great romance. Inriguing tale.

Loved it. The birthday party was my favorite moment. Kale has the perfect voice for these stories.

Good addition to this series

There were only two things that stopped this from being a 5 Star read for me. For the majority of the book, they were not together and we saw so little of Sam. The other was Jason hooking up with someone on page. Yes they were not a couple so technically it wasn’t cheating but, he was in love with Sam. The mystery was really good and I loved the investigation. Can’t wait for the next book in the series.

Great Book

Josh Lanyon is in fine form. It’s a good mystery and he wrote with the confidence to leave loose ends. I enjoyed this thoroughly.

enjoyed it

Did the story keep me engaged: yes
Were there any parts I found annoying: Jason's (regular) inner 'why did Sam dump me' for the first half of the book.
Did I feel an emotional connection to the characters: I did by about the three quarter mark - but it took a while to get there.
Would I listen to it again: I wouldn't not listen to it again, but it wouldn't be my first choice.

Good mystery with a good pace. I liked it more than book 1, but i'm still on the fence about the two main characters. I liked Jason better in this book than the first and Sam is showing some redeeming qualities (he feels slightly 'softer' in this one), so they are both growing on me.

Kale Williams does a great job of bringing characters to life.

Josh Lanyon is the master at dragging out a relationship - now that the relationship is moving forward i'm more interested in giving the rest of the series a listen.
