About this listen

The man lay on his front, his arms and legs bound and pulled up with a rope connecting the two. His head was arched back, so he faced the curtains, and there was masking tape over his mouth. Erika gingerly reached out and checked his pulse.

Yep. Dead all right.

When Detective Erika Foster finds politician Neville Lomas naked, hog-tied, and dead in his own bed, skittish higher-ups at the Met quickly rule the death from natural causes. Case closed . . . until two months later when a well-known casting director and a star footballer are found murdered and tied with the same knots. The Met can no longer ignore what’s staring them in the face: there’s a serial killer loose in London, and they’re out to settle a score.

As Erika and her team investigate, things take a strange turn as CCTV footage turns up five female suspects . . . and they’re all identical.

In the hunt to identify the women, Erika is outpaced at every turn by an elusive sex worker with dirt on enough powerful men to make the Met’s top brass nervous–and desperate.

As time ticks away until the killer strikes again, it’s up to Erika to untangle the web of evidence and answer the critical questions: What ties the victims together, who else is caught up in this scandal, and how far are the higher-ups willing to go to protect their own?

Gripping, tense and impossible to put down, Lethal Vengeance will have you on the edge of your seat, racing to the final dramatic moment.

Robert Bryndza does it again!

This was another fantastic read. Excellent characters, premise, plot, and delivery. I'm impatiently looking forward to the next story by Bryndza. I always preorder his books. The narration by Jan Cramer was near perfect. Please keep 'em coming, Mr. Bryndza!

Excellent addition to the series

The usual cast of characters are faced with two mysteries that are somehow related. Excellent story and plotting. A portion of the story is sure to continue in the next installment, as not everything is wrapped up at the end.

Difficult to Judge

A new Erika Foster crime story is an occasion to celebrate. I'm a huge fan. I listened to this obsessively starting as soon as my advance purchase dropped into my library. it was hard to stop listening even to sleep.

First - what I liked. Bryndza gives us Erika in 2023, bridging the years between books with informative finesse. This new story is complex. Erika is in top, brash, brave form. Reaching the end, my brain went: WHAT? I had to backtrack to the final third of the story and listen to it a second time to figure out the ingenious ending in full. I'm almost positive that the loose ends are accounted for, and that the surprise ending is supportable. SO: Kudos to Robert Bryndza for an outstanding writing feat.

Second - what I didn't like. I didn't give the story 5 stars purely based on my personal tastes. It contained descriptions of very violent acts, and plot elements including child abuse and a personal pet peeve of mine, a threat to harm a cat.

Third - what grated on my nerves. When the narrator is good, she's very good and when she's bad she's excruciating in this performance. The differentiation between character's voices was inconsistent. Erika and Moss sounded as they usually do. However, the other characters sometimes sounded like caricatures in the extreme. The narrator did best with the sections of the book which were straight narration rather than speaking. I wonder if this book was rushed to audio. The narrator is very busy. Perhaps more rehearsal and direction would have helped.

Brilliant!

Worth waiting for! Erica and her team are back and they have an interesting case in front of them. Or is it cases?

Great story and the narration is excellent as we have come to expect from Jan Cramer.

Now, after that ending, I really need the next book asap!

Robert, for the first time ever listening to your Erika Foster series, you made me laugh out loud!

I so enjoyed this book. Erika is in a relationship, her team is well seasoned and solid in their police procedures, and the case is so interesting, that there is no sympathy for the victims- except one. Waiting for the next Erika Foster!
