About this listen
A few short blocks from the safety of the museums and monuments on the National Mall, a ruthless killer prowls the streets of Washington, D.C. Federal prosecutor Jeff Trask joins a team of FBI agents and police detectives as they try to solve the series of brutal murders. As the body count rises, the investigation leads to a chilling confrontation with the leader of an international drug smuggling ring, and no one is safe, not even the police.
Written by former Washington prosecutor Marc Rainer, Capital Kill is a swirling thrill ride through the labyrinth of a major federal investigation and trial, with a gripping conclusion that no one will see coming.

Given the importance of what they do, and the controversies that often surround them, and the violent people they sometimes confront, it is remarkable that in the history of this country only four active federal judges have been murdered. Judge Raymond Fawcett has just become number five.... Nothing is as it seems and everything’s fair game in this wickedly clever new novel from John Grisham, the undisputed master of the legal thriller.

Entertaining
I found the book very entertaining. The narrator did a fine job except for his ethnic accents. They were a bit cartoonish and need to be dialed back a bit. Overall, it was an enjoyable listen.

SOPHOMORIC!
What disappointed you about Capital Kill?
The book was written as if for a child...or was it just the author thinking out loud? This could have been a really good book, but there was too much "explanation" in dialogue.
What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
Nice twist. The ending wasn't a complete surprise, but I liked it.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Very poor attempts at accents, especially the Jamaican. Not much differentiation between character voices.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
The book has good potential, and a re-write with less obvious content would make it much better. If one is new to legal thrillers, this may be a decent start.

I tried
It was difficult keeping track of about 12 characters who all sounded alike. Even the women sounded a bit like the narrator. Then, the long discussions of non-related trivia was useless. Ok, the author knows things. But, they didn't relate to th story at all. I think with a bit of cleanup it would be a good story
