Mr. Kelly is a lonely old man who rents the same video over and over. The flick is a noir classic based on a real-life unsolved bank heist and a million missing dollars. It's called Manhattan Is My Beat. That's the tape Rune is picking up from Mr. Kelly's shabby apartment when she finds him shot to death. The police suspect a robbery gone wrong, but Rune is certain the key to solving the murder is hidden somewhere in the hazy, black-and-white frames of Mr. Kelly's beloved movie.

It's 1949. When war veteran Aloysius Archer is released from Carderock Prison, he is sent to Poca City on parole with a short list of do's and a much longer list of don'ts: do report regularly to his parole officer, don't go to bars, certainly don't drink alcohol, do get a job - and don't ever associate with loose women. The small town quickly proves more complicated and dangerous than Archer's years serving in the war or his time in jail.

Most annoying narration ever

Publisher's Summary
Fear kills - the fourth electrifying Kathryn Dance thriller by master of suspense and number-one best-selling author Jeffery Deaver.
One mistake is all it takes.
Busted back to rookie after losing her gun in an interrogation gone bad, California Bureau of Investigation Agent Kathryn Dance finds herself making routine insurance checks after a roadhouse fire.
But Dance is a highly trained expert in body language: Her most deadly weapon is her instinct, and they can't take that away from her. And when the evidence at the club points to something more than a tragic accident, she isn't going to let protocol stop her from doing everything in her power to take down the perp.
Someone out there is using the panic of crowds to kill, and Dance must find out who, before he strikes again....

A Subtle Dance with Adversity
I found this a strange thriller. It is technically accomplished and polished - I'd prefer to give a 3.5 score. Jeffery Deaver is a master wordsmith and employs plot twists and diversions with the slight of hand of a magician. The empathy with which he relates the inner and family life of his female protagonist is sensitive and insightful. I felt that I'd slipped into a Patricia Cornwell novel at times, what with the Vuitton shoes and hair accessories.
It's a matter of my personal taste. The emotional life of Kathryn Dance is centre stage in this story. The resolution of crime scenes and situations felt a little anti-climatic at times, like pulling a tangle of thread and it all comes to nothing. I preferred the detective work of the last Lincoln Rhyme thriller (The Skin Collector) and the previous Dance novel (XO). I wonder where Jeffery Deaver is taking the character of Kathryn Dance, and I missed her having Lincoln Rhyme as a cantankerous foil - but I've been enjoying Stuart McBride so I'm preferring my detectives a little more hard-boiled!
It is such a well written book and the performance is solid. I do feel daft giving it a low score but it's more to do with my preferences. This just hasn't caught my imagination, moved or excited me as much as some of the other excellent audio books I've listened to recently.

Ok but not one of his best in my opinion
I have read a number of this author's books & have always liked them but this is my least favourite so far (sorry). I think maybe a little too much narrative wasted on 'feelings' rather than letting the story jog on.

Meandering, cliched, TV movie script
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
Thin story, looks like a Troy Mclure TV movie plot, main character motivations are "just because I have to". Twists too facile and neat, daft love interest and annoying reveals of earlier conversations to progress plot.
Would you ever listen to anything by Jeffery Deaver again?
Nope
What aspect of January LaVoy’s performance might you have changed?
Too much gushing about the Dance Character and family
Did Solitude Creek inspire you to do anything?
Play Grant Theft Auto

Looks like the ghost writers sat this one out and JD is firmly back in the saddle. He was truly missed !
Narration is excellent also - an inspired choice for a wide international audience.

The reader klled this book
Would you try another book written by Jeffery Deaver or narrated by January LaVoy?
I would not listen to another book read by this woman - supercilious.
What didn’t you like about January LaVoy’s performance?
Her voice her tone was just really ridiculous! Just so grating...
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Solitude Creek?
All of it!
