Parting Shot

De: Linwood Barclay

Narrado por: Jim Meskimen, James Babson

From New York Times and #1 international bestselling author Linwood Barclay comes a new, standalone blockbuster thriller that spins off from the events of the explosive Promise Falls trilogy.

If you made a mistake that took someone's life, you'd remember it . . . wouldn't you?
After a tragedy rocks the community of Promise Falls, Cal Weaver is asked to investigate the threats being made to the accused's family. He's heard all about it on the news: the young man who drank too much, stole a Porsche and killed a girl, and who claimed afterwards not to remember a single thing. The whole town is outraged that he got off lightly, but for reasons Cal can't explain, he accepts the job. Then Cal finds himself caught up in a vicious revenge plot, chasing someone set on delivering retribution. In Cal's experience, it's only ever a matter of time before threats turn into action. . . .
A gripping thriller packed with scandal, from the master of the twist you never saw coming.

Different narrators than prior Promise Fall books

After listening to the first three books in the series, I was surprised to hear new narrators for Book 4. Unfortunately, the new narrators’ approach to the reading essentially creates new characters. The story is also a bit more forced than the prior Promise Falls books (which is saying something!). Maybe this would have worked better as a stand-alone novel as very little from the prior 3 books is central to this one.

I enjoyed this book. I will get other books from this author!

While this is a new author for me, I enjoyed reading this book and am looking forward to reading other books from this author.

Barclay Does NOT Disappoint 5-Stars!

Linwood Barclay’s New book “Parting Shot” is a gripping suspense thriller, totally packed with scandal, intrigue, mystery, history, and a twist you will not see coming! I couldn't stop listening. Barclay is my favorite author, I can’t say enough about his writing, character development and storylines. Barclay never disappoints and in Parting Shot he’s once again show us why he is the master at what he does. I highly recommend!!!!!

Awesome!

I love all of Linwood Barclays books. The only downside is the cussing is way over the top. Other than that he really brings all the characters to life.

Outstanding

This is the best Barclay book so far. I could not stop listening! So sorry it is over.
