It’s the work of a serial killer for whom Chicago is just the beginning. Now he’s inviting Czarcik to play catch-me-if-you-can on a cross-country murder spree. Going rogue, Czarcik accepts the challenge.

Late one afternoon, a distraught German woman eludes security and slips into Cain’s office. “I have documents,” she says, “important documents only for the Nazi Hunter.” She promises to bring them the next day. When she doesn’t show, he dismisses her as just another crackpot - until he discovers that she has been brutally murdered.

In Irene Lemaitre ingeniously uses five contemporary and classic literary murder scenes - from William McIlvanney's Laidlaw to Bret Easton Ellis' American Psycho - as the framework on which to craft a diabolical prequel to his award-winning novel Alex. Camille Verhoeven, whose diminutive stature belies his fierce intensity, has reached an unusually content (for him) place in life. But when a new murder case hits his desk - a double torture-homicide - Verhoeven is overcome with a sense of foreboding.

The local cops haven't seen anything like this, but Jesse's L.A. past has made him all too familiar with floaters. This girl hadn't committed suicide; she hadn't been drowned; she'd been shot and dumped, discarded like trash. Before long it becomes clear that she had a taste for the wild life; and her own parents can't be bothered to report her missing, or even admit that she once was a child of theirs. All Jesse has to go on is a young man's school ring on a gold chain, and a hunch or two.

Great plot; great narration!!
THE NAMES OF THE DEAD is a fantastic espionage thriller about a CIA agent named James Wesley, called Wes, and his ex-wife and their son. The protagonist role is shared by a young woman from Croatia named Mia in a partnership of convenience. This is easily the best novel I have read so far this year. The narrator, Michael Braun, is new to me but he is outstanding.
Very, very highly recommended!

Fun, but predictable
The book felt kind of like a movie that you watch once, enjoy and dont pick up again. the pacing was good and the characters were mildly intricate. Good for a quick read or listen if you want something fun that doesn't move too fast or make you feel the need to be super invested.

Wes and Mia. What a great friendship..
This was a pretty good story about a CIA agent that was in a prison in Spain for giving the order to shoot down a helicopter with bad guys, only to find out it was full of innocents. He found out he was given the wrong information and when he got out he went after the ones who gave him that information.
Even though it was good I won’t be reading anymore by this author. When books are full of killing and torture and the bad guys won’t even say sh*t, even if they have a mouthful, then I can’t enjoy it. Killing and torture but no swearing? That’s never going to happen.
So, for all of you readers who want killing but only clean talk you will enjoy this.
And there was no sex or romance. BUT I really liked Mia, Wes’s friend.
As to the narration: Michael Braun was fantastic when he was in Spain. The men sounded exactly like Antonio Bandaras. Then he left Spain. Bummer!
