Ties That Bind

Detective Madison Knight Series, Book 1

De: Carolyn Arnold

Narrado por: Samantha Novak

The first installment in an international bestselling series starring Madison Knight—a kickass and fiercely independent detective who will stop at nothing to get justice for murder victims.

Detective Madison Knight is still haunted by a cold case when she’s called to a residential neighborhood to investigate a murder. Laura Saunders was found naked in her bed with a man’s necktie wound tightly around her neck. With few personal touches in the house, a framed photograph on the victim’s nightstand seems out of place.

As Madison digs into Laura’s life, she has a gut feeling that photograph may be the key to solving the case even though everyone else tries to convince her to let it go. But just as she’s making some progress, the killer claims another victim.

Heather Nguyen was discovered in a local park strangled with the same brand of necktie used on Laura. In searching for a connection between the women, Madison uncovers a shocking secret that ties the cases together. If she’s right, this killer isn’t finished yet. But can Madison piece all the clues together in time to save the next victim?

A gripping crime thriller full of heart-pounding twists perfect for fans of Lisa Regan, Rachel Caine, and Robert Dugoni.

So-so narrator

Not a fan of the narrator. Tried so hard to pay attention but kept losing interest due to the blandness.

What do you do if your daughter gets pregnant?

Well if you’re involved in a “church” you obviously kick her or of your house: she has made a mistake and having no food or shelter or safety will make her see the error of her ways. In addition being forced to give birth to a child she doesn’t want is also punishment. The child, suffering from poor nutrition and being unwanted is just a by product of this. I see this used as a plot device so often. What is wrong with this culture that hates children that much.

In any case things were going along fine with this story until the last plot twist…then it all fell apart.

Not very interesting. Certainly not a 'thriller'.

Main character didn't like dogs. This was a turnoff. I will not bother reading more by this author

loved it

I absolutely loved this story. The only thing I'm disappointed in is the narrator's voice of Blake. As I'm assuming he is going to become a major character in The following books. I think she's trying to give him some kind of accent and it made it more annoying. But the story over all amazing and the narrator over all did a great job.

is it a robot reading this?

i cant listen anymore as the narration just bugs me. it seems devoid of emotion.
