The facts are public knowledge: five people have been murdered. Each has died from a blow to the head. And the media-dubbed Prince Charming killer has left a “calling card” with each victim. A single thornless rose. But there’s another fact...one that the police haven’t made public. Something no one, except the killer and the police, should know. But Gabriel Donner does - and he can’t figure out why. All he knows is that he’s begun hearing voices, sleepwalking and dreaming vividly of the murders...as they happen.

A Story about a Very Sick Twisted Serial Killer
Would you listen to Black Lightning again? Why?
Yes because it's a complex story involving several characters and how they make the storyline.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Mark Blakemore, Because he is a tough as nails veteran homicide detective yet caring.
Which character – as performed by Phil Gigante – was your favorite?
Mark Blakemore
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
A serial killer is causing terror in a large city and expands to the East Coast is brought to justice and put to death in the Electric Chair. Now those that helped put the killer away can sleep at night with their families, or can they and are they safe.
Any additional comments?
A spoiler is below so stop reading if you have not finished the story.
SPOILER WARNING
I liked the accuracy of the city and buildings as they were 100% correct as I grew up where the murders were done and spent lots of time up where the fishing area was.
The story would of been much better if the wrong person was put to death for those crimes not the two killings that was done by the person put to death. This leaves the sick serial killer free to start again which will cause even more terror. The Butcher killings should be removed as that is not needed. Also drop the part where the real killer takes over a body of the husband of the reporter it's to far over the top and is not needed. The fact the real serial killer is still out there will be enough.

John Sauls best book
If you liked Mr Murder by Dean Koontz or Pet Semetary by King you will LOVE this book...
He touches on everything, capital punishment most of all... Its a real gem, I think it is just as good as mister murder by Koontz and just as good as pet semetary or maybe better..
Its too bad that Stephen King has this massive troll army, who buy Saul books just to post the same lame review that "he just gets bored at the end of the book".. idiots..
Be assured... When you buy this book, you will get the best narration and a story that will keep you listening at home, car and work.. and after that you will want to buy John Sauls books..
Check out Sauls Sleepwalk.. good book... so is Hellfire or Creature and so on.. Just read what you like and don't post bad comments just cause you have a fav author...
And ignore the Stephen King troll army...

love, Love, LOVED the Ending!
Even MORE Clever than what I've come to expect from John Saul. Yes, the story's a bit dated, only because of the speed at which technology and Capitol Hill are changing. But hearing about places I see on a daily basis, in such a different way, was part of the fun! I am Truly Sorry this story came to an end. . . Perhaps it isn't too late for a series about a Seattle Detective/Reporter Crime Fighting Duo? 🙄

Pretty lame.
Would you try another book from John Saul and/or Phil Gigante?
No.
What could John Saul have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
I just kind of felt the whole thing to be cliche. The writing was not exactly outstanding either.
How could the performance have been better?
Not my favorite reader, but not terrible.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Boredom. It has some gross-out scenes but not much substance, in my opinion.
Any additional comments?
If you are into detective or cop drama, you will most likely be ok with this. If you are looking for something with a supernatural bent, head back to the Stephen King section and save your money on this one.
