About this listen
A New Year's Eve celebration begins with the pop of a champagne cork - and ends with the bone-chilling screams of a killer's victims . Ten-year-old Ben Brook is the lone survivor of the brutal murder of his wealthy family at their upstate New York compound. But from the moment he evades death, Ben's life is in constant danger. Can NYPD detective Buddy Lock keep the boy safe from a killer intent on wiping out the entire Brook clan?
When two more massacres decimate the Brookses' ranks, Buddy's hunt narrows. But his challenges grow as power, money, and secret crimes from the family's past stand in the way. With Ben more and more at risk, Buddy steps closer to the edge, forcing a relentless killer to become more brazen, brutal, and cunning. Saving the boy will put all of Buddy's skills to the test...and risk the lives of everyone he loves.

Sins of the grandfather?
A brutal series of gruesome murders are quickly eliminating one the country’s wealthiest families. A 10 year old boy miraculously escapes the slaughter of his family and now must put his life in the hands of a NYC detective.
A couple of things kept me riveted to this book. The characters of the boy, detective and the detective’s girlfriend seemed extremely familiar and believable to me. Second, it takes great police work to solve a very unique mystery.
Definitely worth a credit, or if you are a Prime member it’s really cheap!

Great Excellent Loved It - Just Get It
Wow! What a good book this is! Once again I am astounded that this is a debut by an unknown author. In my opinion this is author has written the beginning of a potentially great series.
In this book there are four brothers. They own a company that GE would like to buy for an exorbitant amount of money. All four must agree but two hold out. First one family is slaughtered with an axe minus a 10 year old boy, Ben. In the killers second attempt to kill Ben, he kills the wife of the attorney who has temporary custody of Ben. Then another brother and his family.
The investigator, Buddy Lock decides to take Ben home with him to keep him safe. When Ben is left with Buddy's girlfriend they are attacked but get away.
In the course of the investigation Buddy learns that the family, originally from Germany, took advantage of Jews by purchasing priceless works of art for what amounted to theft. Is a survivor coming after the brothers and their families because of who they descended from ? Or does this have something to do with GE?
Meanwhile , the relationship between Buddy, his now fiancé Mei and Ben has become so close. They have unintentionally made each other their family.
There are a few twists throughout and the ending will knock your socks off!!
Christopher Lane does a fantastic job narrating, his delivery is spot on!
And with kindle unlimited I got this book for $1.99!!!!!
This book is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

A Good Detective Mystery
I enjoyed this novel... over the past several months, I've struggled to find an engaging novel. I was starting to think that I had burned myself out listening to novels, and, perhaps I needed to go back to virtually reading rather than listening. I was encountering awful narrators. A poor narrator can destroy a good story. This story is engaging with a good storyline and narrator. It doesn't have a lot of useless descriptive fluff.
The publisher's summary is a good description to get you started because this fast-paced story get going right out of the gate and the narrator's performance helps to pull you in immediately. As the publisher's summary says, this story keeps you guessing but the ending will shock your socks off.
Of the four Brooks' families, three of the families are slaughtered one after the other, but 10 year old Ben escapes and the killer is after him. Detective Buddy Lock is on the case and soon realizes why these families are being slaughtered and the killer will stop at nothing to kill Ben too. An engaging story....
Thanks to audible listeners Shelley of Raleigh, NC and Wayne of Matthews, NC, I found this interesting novel. I enjoy their recommendations in the mystery/thriller genre. Christopher Lane is one of my most favorite narrators and he does a superb job with this novel.

Excellent thriller
Such a good story! Well written. Probably shouldn’t admit that the perp had my sympathy and, I would have been happier if justice had been served FIRST to the Original victims of whom the perp was a descendant.
The performance was acceptable, though his delivery was a tad mannered.
