About this listen

A runaway girl leads Dave Brandstetter to confront a California sex cult.

Serenity ran away from home when her father was convicted of bribery. For two years, she drifted around the American Southwest, finally finding refuge in the arms of Azrael, a charismatic cult leader whose religion was founded upon blood. Long after Serenity's disappearance, the police find a mass grave containing six dead girls on Azrael's property. Thinking his daughter has been murdered, Serenity's father claims her life insurance, and promptly disappears. Now it's Dave Brandstetter's problem.

An insurance investigator with a keen eye and a skeptical mind, Dave is no stranger to savagery. But his trip to the high-priced suburbs of Los Angeles will teach him something new about the depths of human cruelty - and Azrael's mass grave is only the beginning.

Another winner

I am always transfixed by this series work and this was no exception. The story of Dave Brandsetter’s quest to find the truth behind Charles Westover’s claim on his missing daughter’s life insurance.

The story was brilliantly woven and the twist at the end satisfying. My only criticism is with the narrator. I have listened to each of the books and I find his stereotypical portrayal of the Black characters a little passé. I was wondering why all the Black men sound like they were born and raised in the South. Cecil was born and raised in Detroit. Does no one know that Black people are just as likely to have regional accents just like White people?

But other than that, great story!

An enticing listen from Audible Plus catalogue

An enticing listen from Audible Plus catalogue
Joseph Hansen relates another suspenseful tale he allows us to follow insurance investigator Dave Brandstetter closes in on a case of a “deceased” young woman. His job is to find cases of insurance fraud and he shows us exactly how it’s done with humor and his own brand of Brandstetter charm. Keith Szarabajka and Joseph Hansen have a perfection indeed. I can’t imagine one without the other. Quite a few in this this series as available at no cost from Audible Plus catalogue. Recommended? Hell, yes! Get it now and enjoy more in this superb series.
