Length: 2 hrs and 26 mins

Publisher's summary

Robbery, arson, murder, and the one night stand that just won't end.

With 11 missing women to find and six high-profile burglary cases to solve, the last thing Detective Nathan McNamara needs in his life is one more complication. And that's exactly what his recent one-night stand is becoming - complicated. With his heinous lieutenant breathing down his neck for answers and his accidental girlfriend dropping hints for a commitment, Nathan is realizing that his career and his bachelor status are both on the line.

When the burglary cases suddenly escalate to homicide, Nathan must put everything else aside to stop the killer. But this is easier said than done when the blonde from the bar repeatedly shows up at his doorstep and enlists his own mother against him. Now he's more convinced than ever that his job hangs in the balance and that the Surgeon General's warning on the whiskey bottle should include something about women.

Awful narrator

The narrator is horrific. Not just conversations and women’s voices, but even Nathan’s voice. Didn’t want to finish

Getting on the Nathan McNamara train....

Well this ended waaay before I wanted it to! Time to follow Nathan into the Soul Summoner. I enjoyed every minute of this book and the Narrator was so good I actually started picturing the characters. Just when you think this story is over....hang on a second...a really big twist just walked into Nathan's life and it could change everything!

Nathan the Dectective - Perfect!!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I had previously read the story but listening to the sexy voice read it to me was oh so fun! My first audible book & loved it!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Nathan started out being my fav character but after reading the next books in the series, I love Sloan & Warren too. Their stories are all connected, so hard to just pick one!!

Which scene was your favorite?

Can't say that I have a fav scene but knew from the beginning that Shannon wasn't his type of girl.

Any additional comments?

The whole summoner series to this point is one of my all time favs!

it seemed short

I enjoyed the story line?
, I just felt like it was a introduction vice book.

Nice back story

A nice back story, but not all that exciting if you haven't read the first book.

Great Listen!

l love this series and enjoyed this look into Nathan's life. I read the book when it first came out. I thoroughly enjoyed visiting the story again. Thank you, Carson Beck, for the excellent narration. Thank you, Elicia Hyder, for the wonderful story and amazing series!

great backstory for 2 characters

love the insight to how these 2 characters meet. Great pov of character and lead in to 1st book.

Short story

The Detective is a short story regarding Nathan’s story prior to relocating to Ashville. The story was interesting and entertaining but it didn’t really add to the overall series. It would be nice to have his POV for the beginning of the story. The narrator did an awesome job!

AWESOME

THIS IS REALLY GOOD, PULLS YOU IN AND YOU CAN'T STOP!! LOOKING FORWARD TO THE SERIES!
CARSON BECK IS AMAZING. COULD LISTEN TO HIM ALL THE TIME!!

Well worth the money!

I was hesitant to spend money on a short story, but decided that I like the series enough that I had to read this one. While short, it was excellent! I loved getting to know Nathan and Shannon, and was tickled to see how they started dating. The case Nathan was working on was interesting and meshed well with their dynamic. The ending really made me want to re-read The Soul Summoner series, just to continue reading more about Nathan. It is an excellent short-story prequel!
