Serial killer Arnie Milhouse may be ready to end his thirteen-year killing spree, but he wants one last victim before leaving Annapolis - and the sexy new photographer in town promises to be his most satisfying score yet. He develops plans to seduce the mysterious Allison by luring her out to sea aboard his luxury catamaran for a secluded weekend he won't forget...and one she won't survive.

But Arnie's latest mark is more than just another pretty face. Allison McNeil has her own secret agenda, and enough insider information to connect Arnie's long string of seemingly unrelated murders. But hunting down serial killers is more than just a hobby for Allison: she's ready to face down her personal demons and take down this vicious predator once and for all.

Story was a little slow getting started but a really good listen after you got into it a few chapters . Narrator was also very good and easy to listen to.

What a horrible man. What a horrible way to think he is a man. The very first man he took care of deserved it. The wife was trash but he coulda just left her. Not sure this is how serial killers are made but I can see a weak creep thinking this is what makes him powerful. That is just a bully. In the end that is all he was ... a bully.

What a story

The character development is a bit thin, tending towards the stereotypical. The serial killer's quick conversion from frightened man to ultra-confident murderer is also a bit of a stretch. Still, it did keep me entertained. Might give the author a second chance.

Just OK

What other book might you compare Killer Within to and why?

If I didn't know better while listening to this I would swear this sounded like a Mary Higgins Clark book. Good, fast paced with no down time, slightly predictable but thrilling just the same.

Have you listened to any of Joyce Bean’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Joyce Bean did a very good job narrating this book. With her repertoire of voices the characters are easily distinguishable, including the male voices.

Any additional comments?

You know who the killer is from the beginning but there are a few scenes and characters you know are making some really bad choices setting themselves up as the perfect victim. With trepidation they walk right into a trap. Some of them you really want to survive. The book does require some suspension of common sense as far as law enforcement procedurals go but this is fiction and is entertaining, definitely worth the price. I would recommend this and will probably read more by this author.

.... up until the the last hour, hour and a half, when it really takes off.

In the beginning of the book, the author worked hard to increase his word/page count by detailing the exact routes the protagonist took on her regular runs. While this might be of interest to locals, it wasn't especially compelling to anyone not familiar with the area. Most of the rest seemed boilerplate, sort of standard fare for this genre.

The last part was worthy, however. Good tension, even with a predictable ending.

So-so story ....

Killer Within is a solid FBI serial murder thriller made better by outstanding narration. I recommend this novel to those who like serial murder thrillers.
