Lynch and Rose Crime Thriller, Book 1

De: Matt Brolly

Narrado por: Joe James

From the best-selling author of the acclaimed DCI Lambert series comes The Controller, a gripping serial killer thriller introducing Sam Lynch and Special Agent Sandra Rose.

It is six years since special agent Samuel Lynch left the FBI following the disappearance of his son, Daniel. Lynch believes an underground organisation known as The Railroad is responsible and has never stopped searching.

When Special Agent Sandra Rose investigates a house invasion gone wrong, she discovers the assailant has the legendary, and infamous, Railroad tattoo carved onto his back and he claims to know Daniel’s whereabouts.

Rose draws Lynch in to her case, and together they become embroiled in an unparalleled world of violence and evil.

It seems that to see his son again, Lynch will have to confront his greatest fear and face the ultimate test: an encounter with the Railroad’s enigmatic and deadly leader, The Controller.

Needs some editing, but good listen

Repeated phrases several times like a skip in a record, thought something was wrong with my app at first. Editing issue? Several mispronunciations throughout, but overall a decent performance and interesting listen

Not listening to next book

I will read the book for book two. The narration was so flat I had a hard time getting into the story.

Interesting story but poor audio

The story itself was fine but the reader was very dull and there were a few spots when it was poorly spliced together.

Not done yet

Acrost? Are you kidding me? I have to do at least 15 words, so I’m saying more but seriously acrost?

I don’t get it

Unfortunately, I listened to the whole thing. I was hoping it would be worthwhile at the end but I was disappointed. The end didn’t really explain why everything was done to Ethan or his father. It seemed like the idea was there but the author didn’t know what to do with it. The story started off slow and confusing. It kinda got better but not enough for me to recommend listening. I didn’t care for the narrator but maybe that was due to his subject matter.
