Publisher's summary

Drift

They killed the wrong girl. Rachel hatch will make them pay.

USA Today and Amazon two-million copy best-selling author L.T. Ryan has teamed up with police detective Brian Shea for this debut novel in the gripping Rachel Hatch mystery thriller series.

Ex-army criminal investigator Rachel Hatch is a drifter. No home. No commitments. Until her sister's drowning drags her back to the town she left 15 years ago.

Convinced her sister's death was no accident, Hatch partners with the local sheriff, Dalton Savage to uncover the truth. Every answer unlocks another question, and as the investigation begins to unravel, Hatch and Savage find their lives on the line.

Hatch is forced to use her special set of skills - forged on the field of combat - to learn the truth about her sister and bring those responsible to justice.

The first novel in one of the most highly anticipated collaborative series this decade, Drift is a tightly woven story, with deeply developed and endearing characters that will have you rooting for them at every turn and set at an exhilarating pace that will keep you listening late into the night.

Downburst

Seeking answers to her father's death, Hatch finds herself in a small town outside of Las Cruses, New Mexico.

Controlled by a vicious street gang. A family caught in the crossfire. Hatch sets out to make things right.

The quaint town of Luna Vista, turns out to be anything but. A ruthless gang runs a section of the town. In searching for the truth about her father's past, she's pitted against a criminal network that exposes the town's dark secret. Hatch puts her life on the line to help a boy escape the clutches of the gang. Her act puts her in peril.

Fever Burn

Seeking justice for her father's murder leads Hatch halfway across the world.

A ruthless warlord stands in the way. Hatch is forced to take a stand. And it very well could be her last.

On the trail of her father's killer, Hatch finds the path leads to a remote village in Africa. A vicious warlord controls the area in a stranglehold of violence. Hatch finds a fight she never sought, but one her personal code won't let her walk away from.

Outnumbered and outgunned, Hatch is forced to hold nothing back if she ever hopes to get out alive.

She finds herself in a battle as treacherous as any she's faced before, against an enemy hell-bent on stopping her. Danger lurks around every corner. Hatch's code, a simple one - help good people and punish those who hurt others - may prove more difficult a task as the forces against her mount. A whirlwind of threats converge like the unpredictable desert weather and threaten to crash down upon her.

Not afraid of a good fight, Hatch prepares herself for her most difficult battle of her life.

Fever Burn is designed with the dynamic pacing and storytelling fans of L.T. Ryan and Brian Shea have become accustomed to. This sequel is filled with twists and turns and the relentless pacing that will keep listeners listening on until the very last word.

I love multiple novels like this, I go on to buy.

So,how many times does Hatch Continue to get Into dire circumstances and Thinks she is the only one who can fix what's broken by herself?
Lordy, this character needs to realize she has people she can rely on to help who also has strengths like she does.
I hope this character evolves and learns to trust.
Great storylines and plots and LOVING the twists, I hope there is more.

Not what I expected - better than I could have imagined.

Extremely enjoyable. Sometimes a “what? No way!” Characters that I felt I knew, some I wanted to meet, some made me weep. I just bought series 2 made up of books 4-6.
Leaves me wondering if cleaning the house and doing laundry are THAT important. Then, I remembered that I have a very good pair of earbuds.

Good story horrible narrator

I like this story but it was so hard to get through this has to be the worse narrator, I would like to have been able to listen to the next set but I just could not take the narrator anymore.

This is a Great Series

I love Rachel she’s a badass. I think the first three books are great so far. I listen to a lot of different genres. This isn’t high in romance which is fine. But she kickass, which I like. The story lines are great. You get two in one. She is trying to find her dads killer but she also helps the people in the towns she goes too! Narrations is huge for me and Maryne delivers every time. Cant wait to start 4-6.

Interesting new series, but stopped after book 2

Drift - Book 1

A new series with a couple of authors that I have read separately in the past. I thought it might be interesting to see what they put together and found this boxset with books 1-3.

The female MC - Rachel Hatch- is a former military MP. She was in the Army, was an MP (Military Police), and then was also part of some type of special covert group during her last deployment. She was involved in an explosion that also killed some of her colleagues and was also injured, pretty seriously, and she received a medical discharge.

She seems to be drifting a bit, not quite sure what she wants to do next, but it becomes pretty clear pretty quickly that she is working out some anger issues in the form of a type of vigilantism.

She gets a call that her sister has been murdered and she returns home to the small town that she left 15 years ago without looking back. This book is centered around her trying to solve her sister's murder.

I listened to this mostly all of audio and had no problems with the narration. The story itself was interesting and kept my interest. I liked some of the secondary characters, and disliked others. I especially liked the new Sheriff :)

With that being said, I found it hard to really, really like Rachel. I didn't dislike her, I just kind of kept her at arms length in my mind. She's got a ton of baggage and that definitely comes through for the reader.

The book has a completed story arc but it does set up the next book. I guess I need to go find book 2.

Downburst - Book 2
Well, this is the second book in this series, and I think it just might be the last for me. I liked the first book and was looking forward to what was going to come next for Rachel. Unfortunately, this book took things WAY, way too far and passed any type of believability factor for me.

I am totally willing to suspend reality in fiction books. In fact, some of my favorite series have MC's in them that have almost superman level skills. But there is also a development that occurs with that to help support the extreme actions that they excel at. This book, and the book before it, never really does that. She just becomes a super hero level character.

We have Rachel continuing on her journey to find out what happened to her father (he was murdered) and has her arriving at a small town in New Mexico. Then, the only way I can described what happens next is that she becomes a one person demolition team. She takes on not one, but two motorcycle gangs - and without going into spoilers, let's just say that not many of them are left alive at the end.

This is where this series lost me. I can't even begin to describe the events of this book. The risks she takes and the utter craziness of her behavior. Things like she walks into a bar with 20 bad guys who want her dead - with no back up. While at the same time talking smack and threatening the leader. The impulsiveness of some of her actions had me mentally shaking my head, while at the same time wanting to shake some sense into her. It became very annoying.

Rachel definitely has some growing to do. Her character definitely needs some development and I honestly hope that she experiences some growth in the next upcoming books. Unfortunately, I will not be around to witness it.

Good Cop

Great story line. Good character development. She is the female Jack Reacher, sorta. Would like to hear about her being back home.
