In the aftermath of the shooting, LA Special Trials prosecutor Rachel Knight teams up with her best girlfriend, LAPD detective Bailey Keller.

Why does Bailey sound like she’s tired, sick or on drugs? It’s annoying and seems different than the last book Killer Ambition

Likable Characters and Enthralling Storyline

This is my first Marcia Clark novel. I immensely enjoyed it. The characters were very likable. I loved the details of their personalities shining through with their eccentricities. The storyline was riveting. This is number four in the series if I remember correctly. There were some references made to other stories but that didn’t distract from this novel.

Very suspenseful

Story kept me guessing as plot changed who was the guilty party/parties. Lots of action.

Surprise

I am sure Marcia Clark has a lot of stories to tell and I am looking forward to listening to more. The only negative was at times the story dragged a little but not enough for me to stop listening.

Never saw it coming!

Excellent book!! The details, the story and the twists along the way keep the listener engaged and on the edge of their seats. I couldn’t stop listening! Fantastic writing and the two main characters are easily relatable in their hunt for the shooters. This book is on point and tragically playing out in different areas of the country daily.
