Publisher's Summary
In this “whip-smart thriller featuring a brilliant female protagonist, a finely-tuned plot, and some truly spectacular writing” (Cristina Alger, USA Today best-selling author) from the author of Leave No Trace, a high stakes crime triggers a woman’s complicated and potentially deadly search for the truth.
Nora Trier catches thieves. As a forensic accountant, she’s unearthed millions in every corner of the world. She prides herself on her independence, the most essential currency of accounting, until her firm is hired by Strike.
An anti-corporate, feminist athletic empire, Strike is owned by Logan Russo, a brash and legendary kickboxer, and her marketing genius husband, Gregg Abbott. They’re about to host a major tournament with 20 million dollars in prize money, and the chance for the champion to become the new face of the company. But Gregg suspects his wife already has a new face in mind in the form of a young trainer.
When the prize money goes missing days before the tournament begins, Gregg hires Nora’s firm to find both the thief and the money - but Nora has a secret connection to Strike. Her partner pressures her into taking the case anyway, hinting he has information that could change the course of the investigation in a shocking and deadly way.
A tense and unpredictable thriller, Strike Me Down “crackles with obsession, greed, lust, and plenty of ambition, and it’s loaded with more twists and turns than a spy novel” (Kirkus Reviews).

Glad I continued listening
At first I didn’t like the main female character or the plot. She seemed pretty selfish. I can’t say that my opinion changed much about that, but protagonists need not be great people. The plot was a slow burn, and while the answer to the mystery was pretty clear before the last couple of chapters, it was satisfying when everything unfolded. A pleasant, forgettable mystery was exactly what I had been looking for to accompany me while doing mundane chores.

Poor male voice
I didn’t like the male narrator because he spoke faster than the female narrators so I could never sinc their speeds. Also he had a tendency to drop his voice low enough that word endings and syllables disappeared in his speech.

Unusual interesting strong women characters
This has been one of the most original books I’ve listened to in some time because of the strong women and their husbands. The central story of a woman champion kickboxer/business founder was new to me - very different and intriguing.
There are a number of twists and turns that keep you guessing and the three narrators did an excellent job bringing the story to life. I will definitely read other Mindy Mejia books now.

The book was not badly written. It just didn’t really pique or keep my interest. I’m sure it was quite interesting to others though. Everyone has their own taste and preference. :)
