About this listen

Lieutenant Jonathan Stride is quietly recovering from injuries sustained on his latest case when a rich doctor's baby is kidnapped and his peace is shattered. As suspicion builds that the doctor may have staged the baby’s disappearance, the relationship between the doctor and his wife and neighbors begins to disintegrate. Stride and his lover, Serena, a former Las Vegas detective, find themselves on opposite sides of the case, with Stride pursuing evidence that incriminates the doctor and Serena trying to prove that the baby really was abducted.

Meanwhile, Stride’s partner, Maggie, and a headstrong young cop are tracking a man responsible for a violent crime wave in the rural areas of Duluth. There seems to be no connection between the cases—until a victim with ties to the doctor’s case turns up murdered in the signature style of the Duluth killer.

Brian Freeman is an international best-selling author of psychological suspense novels, including Immoral and Stripped.

I liked Maggie and Jonathan the most in this book. All the others seemed to have no belief in their convictions. I love Joe Barrett as a narrator for true crime stories. Perhaps a little to monotone for this book. The story itself really was excellent. Just drawn out, but once I changed timing I really enjoyed it. I would be hesitant to recommend this book though.

Great mystery .. Just play on 1.5 speed

As always the narration is always above par. Mr. Freeman’s story telling is always engrossing and I totally missed the cues as to the ending which was delicious!!

Another great one!!

Another great book! But what was Stride thinking? I hope things work themselves out with them

Another amazing one

While a lot of the story lines worked out basically as I had thought, but either perpetrated by a whole other person or for motives I did not anticipate. Some of the red herrings made me doubt myself & some of the story lines did not have the fairytale endings I really hoped for.
The narrator did a great job using his voice to build tension or represent the frenetic energy of the moment.

Plenty of red herrings; some obvious, some not

Love this series but I hate the fact John hooked up with Maggie. Her character annoys me.

This book makes me dislike Maggie!

This book, as well as, the others continue to keep me on the edge of my seat. I can't wait to hear the next book.

I just love this series!

Loved this story and it's surprising ending. I don't know how narrator Joe Barrett can do so many voices so effortlessly, but I now look for stories that he narrates.

Interesting and suspenseful

From the start it enticed and was riveting. Niice catch at end. Thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. No lags and drags. Well narrated too.

Solid entertainment

I enjoyed the investigation, the characters and the plot. The author succeeded in getting me invested in the welfare of the characters and his development of them and was well crafted. I was never sure who or what their motives were until the last few chapters. The misdirection was masterful and the surprise twist were never revealed until the last moment and then you were wondering 'what happened'. As will all of Mr. Freeman's books this one is well worth the time. I recommend this book.
Mr. Barrett did a fine job with the narration. We listen to his voice but he was never obvious or intrusive upon the story. We could get involved in the story and forget that it was being read to us. A superb job.

Nothing was predictable

This was a real thriller. You can’t put the book down. There’s one plot after the other, and the ending is a major shocker! 

Another Freeman book that you can’t put down
