About this listen
A sociopath cuts a path of destruction across the rural Midwest. In pursuit: a vigilante detective and a prosecutor, one bent on revenge, the other on virtue. And in the wrong place at the wrong time: a doctor in a life-and-death moral struggle. Barreling toward justice, their fates converge in these four interlocking short stories of cunning misdirection by internationally bestselling author Jeffery Deaver.
The Pain Hunter
A violent jailbreak bleeds into a street fair in Wisconsin. In the wake of the carnage, a getaway van barrels down a rural highway. Inside are two men with a tenuous bond: an obsession with pain.
Dodge
Nothing can stop an avenging vigilante from channeling her rage—or pursuing her prey. Not the relentless cops in her rearview. Not the cunning and elusive sociopath she’s closing in on.
Execution Day
When justice is on the line, the courtroom becomes a battleground for a prosecutor obsessed with victory, a defense attorney hired to thwart it and a wily defendant making a bid for freedom.
Sixty-One Seconds
The hunter has captured her prey, and a sociopathic crime boss faces justice at last. But it’s not the end of the story. On a crowded street, gunfire and death are waiting to explode.

Story
When an improvised explosive device is found outside a hospital, the understaffed Middleton PD knows it’s up against a pro. No one takes credit for the sophisticated device—all that Detective Jake Sloan has to go on is a poem. The cryptic rhyme surfaced shortly after the bomb scare. But ex-soldier and football player Sloan has never been much of a poetry buff. When a second verse turns up, containing a message in code, he solicits the help of English professor Ciara Hawkins.

Story
When the FBI comes to Lincoln Rhyme with the news that a mysterious assassin is targeting him, the detective is not particularly concerned. With his long career putting away criminals, he is accustomed to threats on his life, and has designed his Upper West Side townhome to be secure against nearly any threat. But when the assassin gets too close for comfort, Rhyme determines to find out why this person is after him. He must put himself inside the mind of a killer in order to save his own life, and possibly the lives of those he loves most.

Story
When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

Story
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

I thoroughly enjoyed it, but it's not for everyone
These stories are interlocking and require more thought by the reader than the average story. If you are looking for the end to be tied up with the bow, this is not your story. I'm going to look around for more stories like this.

Once you get used to the order of the stories
Once you get used to the order of the stories, it is very enjoyable to try and put each of the four different stories together matching up the timelines and the characters. Once you do, it is worth it.

Good Story, Not Good Audio
Deaver is a complicated writer, and while I understand the complexity of his sentence structure, listening to this performance was painful. It was robotic and oddly halted, with weirdly timed breaks and incorrect pronunciations. A little better by the end of the book. Would have preferred to read it myself. Not sure I can finish the series if the reader is the same.

misdirection only works when others are willing
Very easy finished in a day. Enjoyed the ability to see from more than one perspective. Is any one above the law or impermeable to capture?

Another Deaver story
A different kind of story, which was fun to listen. Story starts at the ending and jumps back to the main story. So you need to pay attention, but that is easy to do.

Introducing a heroine
The young lady investigator, who is also a champion boxer, is a great protagonist. The bad guy, a drug dealer and human trafficker is ready to hate. A grew loose ends - the murder accomplice found innocent and the final apprehension of the bad guy. His capture and elimination seem imminent.

Disappointing
I usually love Deaver’s books. But this one was a real disappointment. The plot was all over the place, going forward and back in time but not logically at all. It seemed like it had been written for several installments or something because so much was repeated. The editor / publisher should never have let this book go out the way it is.
Also , the narrator was terrible. But I listened to the end— only it wasn’t the end. I guess there will be a sequel. I won’t be listening to that one.

Had to return
He is my favorite author, but I couldn’t listen to the reader. I tried because he is a great writer.
If the narrator isn’t good, it is hard for me to get into the story. I guess I’ll just buy the book.

Inconsistent performance
I love Deaver's work but I was not able to complete this one due to the performance, so my rating of the story is not accurate. When trying to reflect a male speaking in the book the narrator would drop their volume so low that I would have to turn up the volume to get a clue as to what was being said. This made the rest of the narration far too loud. I was not able to get more than an hour into the book because of the inconsistent volumes in the narration. Not a narrator I would want to listen to again.
