The woman gives her name as Betty. No last name. No phone number. Just a meeting place - a deserted, wooded park on the outskirts of Lake Tahoe. The one condition - come alone. San Francisco attorney Kali O'Brien understands client confidentiality, but something about Betty's urgent request has her a little spooked.

The moment Betty meets with Kali, she's shot and killed by a sniper, and Kali barely escapes with her life. She's left with more questions than answers. Why did the woman go to such lengths to ensure secrecy? And then there's the last thing Betty said - a cryptic phrase that leads Kali to another unsolved case - the mysterious disappearance of a woman eight years earlier.

As Kali get closer to discovering the truth, a killer is right behind her, anticipating her every move, waiting for her to play into his very lethal hands...

Intent to Harm is the sixth book in the Kali O'Brien series. The listener experiences suspense, mystery, romance and more in this legal thriller, that is set outside the courtroom. Kalie is contacted by a mysterious client that wants to meet with her confidentiality. The plot thickens and spins in many different directions before we get to the end. There was just enough foreshadowing that I figured the "villain " but not the motive. I really enjoyed the interaction between the characters. There was even a bit of humor that made me chuckle. I want more of this series.


The narration was well done.The characters were well portrayed.

Strong female character on a ROLLER COASTER RIDE! Listening to this book I felt like the lead detective trying to find clues and solve the mystery. Not all authors can write so well as to make you feel that way! Narration is also a huge factor in making the book that good and Cindy Piller did a great job.

My first Kali O'Brian book and I'm impressed with J.Jacobs writing style. There are many twists and turns that I could not stop listening! I really enjoyed the story and how author brings it all together in the final chapters. Even though this is a series, this could be a stand alone book as the character development is good.
Cindy Piller did a good job with the narration. Easy to distinguish voices of different characters.

This book is the sixth in a series of books but it is the first one in the series that I have read. It is absolutely sufficient to stand as a standalone novel. It had excellent narration and I enjoyed the writers writing style. The characters were engaging and sympathetic. My favorite character in the whole book though was the lawyers next-door neighbor. I was provided this book at no cost to me for an honest review

Excellent legal thriller

If you could sum up Intent to Harm in three words, what would they be?

Couldn't stop listening

Who was your favorite character and why?

Irene/Faith (same character) she is such a fighter throughout the entire book. You find out about her past, what she's been through and what she has to do on a daily basis to keep her secret from everyone around her. Rather than just give up, she keeps on fighting to stay alive

What about Cindy Piller’s performance did you like?

She speaks very clearly and does a great job of alternating voices for the different characters

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Close to the end you find out who really is behind the kidnapping and attack of Faith and it's a huge plot twist that I didn't see coming so that point kind of solidified how intrigued I was by this story

Any additional comments?

I really enjoy the Kali O'Brien series - this was my second audiobook from it and they are great legal thrillers for anyone who enjoys that genre and also has points of humor to lighten it up.
