Story
On his last combat deployment, Lt. Cmdr. James Reece's entire team was killed in an ambush that also claimed the lives of the aircrew sent in to rescue them. But when those dearest to him are murdered on the day of his homecoming, Reece discovers that this was not an act of war by a foreign enemy but a conspiracy that runs to the highest levels of government. Now, with no family and free from the military's command structure, Reece applies the lessons that he's learned in over a decade of constant warfare toward revenge.

Too political
Reviewed: 06-20-22
The author injects radical political views that are totally unnecessary and inappropriate. I will never read another of his books.

Story
A masterful, intensely suspenseful novel about a reader whose obsession with a reclusive writer goes far too far - a book about the power of storytelling, starring the same trio of unlikely and winning heroes King introduced in Mr. Mercedes. "Wake up, genius." So begins King's instantly riveting story about a vengeful reader. The genius is John Rothstein, an iconic author who created a famous character, Jimmy Gold, but who hasn't published a book for decades.

Story
The 1975 Masters Tournament always seemed destined for the record books. A veritable Hall of Fame list of competitors had gathered that spring in Augusta, Georgia, for the game's most famous event, including Arnold Palmer, Tom Watson, Gary Player, Lee Trevino, Hale Irwin, Billy Casper, and Sam Snead. The lead-up had been dominated by Lee Elder, the first black golfer ever invited to the exclusive club's tourney. But by the weekend, the tournament turned into a showdown between the three heavyweights of the time: Jack Nicklaus, Johnny Miller, and Tom Weiskopf.

Exceptionally poor performance
Reviewed: 04-23-15
Joel Richards is the absolute worst narrator I have ever heard. He mispronounced names of golfers, golf courses, and even "hosel"!!! Made the book infuriating to me. Who hired this idiot?

Story
The Profiler's Daughter is a psychologically haunting thriller that combines murder mystery, love triangle, and family intrigue in one satisfying page burner. Sky Stone was born into the wealth and privilege of Boston's oldest Brahmin family but chooses instead to follow in the footsteps of her deceased father, legendary FBI profiler Monk Stone. In the chilly morning hours before the Boston Marathon, when a beautiful university student is found strangled and mutilated, her body left at the base of Heartbreak Hill, Sky returns from self-imposed exile to investigate.

Seriously flawed
Reviewed: 06-08-14
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
A different author
What do you think your next listen will be?
Something not written by a female, with less sex, with a more believable plot, and a leading character that makes logical decisions.
Would you listen to another book narrated by Gabrielle de Cuir?
yes
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
The narrator was decent.
Any additional comments?
If this continues in a series, I suggest you market only to women that are interested in romance novels, and live in trailers. In other words, market to those who are unfamiliar with decent literature.
