About this listen

In a propulsive thriller by the #1 internationally bestselling author of The Baztán Trilogy, a female detective follows a psychopathic killer into the eye of a storm.

Amaia Salazar, a young detective from the north of Spain, has joined a group of trainees at the FBI Academy in Virginia. Haunted by her past and having already tracked down a predator on her own, Amaia is no typical rookie. And this is no ordinary student lecture at Quantico. FBI agent Aloisius Dupree is already well acquainted with Amaia’s skills, her intuition, and her ability to understand evil. He now needs her help in hunting an elusive serial killer dubbed “the Composer,” and in solving another case that’s been following him his whole life.

From New Jersey to Oklahoma to Texas, the Composer’s victims are entire families annihilated in the chaos of natural disasters, their bodies posed with chilling purpose amid the ruins. Dupree and Amaia follow his trail to New Orleans. The clock is ticking. It’s the eve of the worst hurricane in the city’s history. But a troubling call from Amaia’s aunt back home awakens in Amaia the ghosts from her childhood and sends her down a path as dark as that of the coming storm.

This is a very well written and engaging book. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to it and was pleasantly surprised with the highly talented narrator. The book combines crime investigation, murder, and psychology bordering at times on the occult. It’s a rich mixture of storylines that might be too much for some but I enjoyed it. Also, this book had to be translated from Spanish and the translation is excellent.

Impeccable narration

I like tortured detective stories and this is my new favorite...I'm looking forward to the Báztan Trilogy.

This is the first book I have listened to/read (Kindle) by Delores Redondo. This book does have tragic elements, like most thrillers/crime fiction. The author created very strong characters, strong story lines. Especially toward the end of the book, I couldn’t wait to come home from work, settle in for the evening so I could listen/read some more. I am very surprised to see that there were only 45 ratings for this audiobook, so I really needed to rate this. Emma Gregory is an amazing narrator!! So many accents, so many characters and she was great! I can see why people choose books based on Emma Gregory as a narrator.

New to Redondo, Excellent Read

I’ve just discovered this Author, in 2 months I have listen to all her books. This book in particular is really well performance. I’m fact it is one of the best performances in audible that I listen to so far!
Only two translate errors that might help you if you are an Anglo listener: chirimiri is a soft rain and little vixen is not a fox it is little hore..
As for the history, it is better understood if you listen to baztan trilogy first. But as a separate book it can do.
Enjoy this book, it is another master pice by Dolores Redondo!!

Magnificent book, amazing performance!’
