About this listen

When President Clay Dixon's father-in-law - a former vice president - is injured in a farming accident, First Lady Kate Dixon returns to Minnesota to be at his side. Assigned to protect her, Secret Service agent Bo Thorsen soon falls under Kate's spell. He also suspects the accident is part of a trap set for Kate by David Moses, an escaped mental patient who once loved her. What Bo and Moses don't realize is that they're caught in a web of deadly intrigue spun by a seemingly insignificant bureaucratic department within the federal government. Racing to find answers before an assassin's bullet can kill Kate, Bo soon learns that when you lie down with the devil, there's hell to pay.

I enjoy characters who are not all good or all bad and story lines that surprise. Krueger delivers on both points in this novel. Characters who evolve make for thought provoking reading which supersedes mere entertainment.

Great characters!

If half stars were an option I would give The Devil’s Bed 4.5 stars! Fast paced and very well written; plot twists and excellent character development keeps the story moving along and keeps the reader engaged. I wish William Kent Krueger would continue a series with Bo Thorsen.

Excellent mystery 4.5 stars

WKK's writing in the Devil's Bed is very good. His Cork Corcoran series... I've listened to them all...are consistently first class for the genre. But two of his novels,
Ordinary Grace and This Tender Land, rise to another, higher level of excellence. WKK is capable of spinning prose into the golden realm of poetry. James Dickey's novel, Deliverance, is similar in this regard.

Well Written and Well Told

So sorry that this didn’t lead to a series. One of the best mystery thrillers out there, from one of the best storytellers. Enjoy!

Just the best
