About this listen
Millions in stolen property, revolting sex crimes, and murder-for-hire were all in the mix for a Las Vegas police detective, as he toiled to take Sin City's most prolific criminal off the streets for good. Detective Bradley Nickell brings you the inside scoop on the investigation, arrest, and conviction of the most prolific repeat offender Las Vegas has ever known.
Daimon Monroe looked like an average guy, raising a family with his diffident schoolteacher girlfriend. But just below the surface, he was an accomplished thief with an uncontrollable lust for excess. His criminal mind had no bounds - he was capable of anything given the proper circumstances. You will be revolted by Monroe's amassed wealth through thievery; his plots to kill Detective Nickell, a judge, and a prosecutor; and the physical and sexual abuse to which Monroe subjected his daughters.

On a bitterly cold afternoon in December 1986, a Michigan State trooper found the frozen body of Jerry Tobias in the bed of his pickup truck. The 31-year-old oil field worker and small-time drug dealer was clad only in jeans, a checkered shirt, and cowboy boots. Inside the cab of the truck was a fresh package of expensive steaks from a local butcher shop, the first lead in a case that would be quickly lost in a thicket of bungled forensics, shady prosecution, and a psychopathic star witness out for revenge.

Story
Racial tensions had long simmered in Benton Harbor, a small city on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan, before the day a White narcotics officer - more focused on arrests than justice - set his sights on an innocent Black man. But when officer Andrew Collins framed Jameel McGee for possession of crack cocaine, the surprising result was not a race riot but a transformative journey for both men.

Early on the morning of February 17, 1970, in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, a Green Beret doctor named Jeffrey MacDonald called the police for help. When the officers arrived at his home they found the bloody and battered bodies of MacDonald's pregnant wife and two young daughters.

No one except for veteran homicide investigator Chris Morgan, a man in the twilight of his career. But from the moment Morgan saw the 30-year-old widow in the police department interview room, he knew he was seeing pure evil.

Story
In Race Against Time, Mitchell takes listeners on the twisting, pulse-racing road that led to the reopening of four of the most infamous killings from the days of the Civil Rights Movement, decades after the fact. His work played a central role in bringing killers to justice for the assassination of Medgar Evers, the firebombing of Vernon Dahmer, the 16th Street Church bombing in Birmingham, and the Mississippi Burning case. Mitchell reveals how he unearthed secret documents and found long-lost suspects and witnesses, building up evidence strong enough to take on the Klan.

True Crime
What did you love best about Repeat Offender?
With non-fiction the story is what it is. This author obviously knew he had a good story to share and paired up with an excellent narrator, he came up with a winner. Because I work in the criminal justice field I had an appreciation for this story and the resources it took to bring this criminal to justice.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Detective Nickell. Even though Monroe's actions created countless victims, Nickell's perseverance, experience, intelligence, and compassion eliminated future victims and made the Las Vegas community a safer place.
What about Kevin Pierce’s performance did you like?
Everything. Pierce was a perfect narrator for this story. He was convincing with a perfect pace and spot on inflection.
Any additional comments?
This book was provided by the narrator at no cost in exchange for an honest review.

Portrait of a sociopath
What did you love best about Repeat Offender?
The author did a really good job portraying a textbook sociopath. The career criminal was funny, smart, sort of likeable, self centered, entitled and grandiose. I'm a retired forensic psych nurse and the picture was very accurate.
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
It needed more editing. At least a couple of hours could of been trimmed off. Also the author's religious beliefs and moral philosophies could of been trimmed down. as it was his personal beliefs were repeated over and over again. No problem to express his personal beliefs, but no over and over again.
Which character – as performed by Kevin Pierce – was your favorite?
The criminal Daimon Monroe he also did a superb job of performing the detective.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The apathy and compliance of of Tammy, Daimon's paramour, especially in regard to Daimon's abuse of their children.
Any additional comments?
“I was provided this audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review via AudiobookBlast dot come”Overall the book was an interesting and enjoyable listen, however it could of been edited more. It could of been shortened and the author's personal beliefs could of been stated once twice or even thrice, without being repeated over and over again.The author gave a excellent concrete portrayal of a sociopath.

Incredible and We'll Written
a very very well-written True Crime novel.
I believe the narrator was probably one of the best because I could tell the difference between characters and that makes a book more interesting!

Sin City SIN
While this is categorized as a true crime book (which it certainly is), it also has some of the aspects of a memoir. The author gives the facts of the case, and the events surrounding the investigation and trial objectively, but this is also a personal story, and the author also gives his own feelings and thought processes. In many ways, this personal touch makes this very interesting book unique. Granted, I would have preferred the story without the editorial comments, especially those involving the author’s religious beliefs, but, this is in the nature of a memoir …and these comments were seldom distracting.
The narrator was just about perfect for this book, and did an excellent job in all aspects of narration. His presentation was well paced, and with enough emotion to keep the book from becoming as dry as, say, a police report. I would give this book 4 out of 5 stars, and the narrator 5 stars.

A little disappointed
The book centered primarily on the trial involving conspiracy of a couple of criminals. Every minute detail of the trial was explained and it got tedious to listen to. The author also tended to preach his opinion about the unfairness of the justice system. I was a little disappointed in the book.

Yes, typical top shelf performance on the part of Mr. Pierce!

Truth IS Stranger Than Fiction
As an early fan of LAPD Detective Joseph Wambaugh (The New Centurions, 1971), I had yet to come across another author of true crime who could keep me riveted with a captivating story...until now.
Las Vegas Police Detective Bradley Nickell, with co-author Warren Jamison, recounts the tenacious investigation and arrest of career criminal, Daimon Monroe, following with the court trials and multiple life sentences. I was fascinated by all the details from transcripts, frustrated by the audacity of the defendant (and the defense attorney) and relieved by the final outcome. I don't know which shocked me more-- the revelation of torture and sexual abuse of his own daughters or the conspiracy to kill Nickell, the judge and prosecuting attorney.
Narrator Kevin Pierce gave an exemplary performance, capturing the nuance of each character. (I'll definitely be looking for more of his narrations!)

Fascinating story but too long and detailed
Would you try another book from Bradley Nickell and Warren Jamison and/or Kevin Pierce?
I am not sure--it would depend on the topic.
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
There was too much detail that did not add to the story. The story could have been more engaging if some of the court testimony had been left out. There was a lot of repetition that seemed unnecessary.
Also, Bradley Nickell was a bit heavy-handed with the morality stuff.
Which character – as performed by Kevin Pierce – was your favorite?
The wife of the career criminal. I really felt for her after she decided that her children and her life were more important than her lifestyle with her boyfriend.
Do you think Repeat Offender needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
Probably not--it would seem repetitive even if it was another criminal.

Just the whole thing from start to finish was captivating.
What about Kevin Pierce’s performance did you like?
Amazing as always!
If you could give Repeat Offender a new subtitle, what would it be?
