About this listen
"It was one thing to fantasize about evil, to reach into the darkness and play with it a little...."
Rookie cop Carrie Santero has always been fascinated by serial killers. As a teenager, she wrote a letter to Charles Manson in prison - and received a chilling reply. Then she came face to face with a child murderer in her small Pennsylvania town, an encounter that haunts her to this day.
Now, as a detective in training, she finally has her chance to make a difference; to hunt down a psychopathic sadist who embodies the very nature of evil itself.
"...but it was something different when it knew your name."
The killer draws inspiration from the most twisted minds in modern crime. Ted Bundy. John Wayne Gacy. Ed Gein. The Green River Killer. As the body count rises, Carrie and her boss, Chief Bill Waylon, realize they're dealing with an unpredictable "omnikiller" who cannot be profiled. Their only hope is to enlist the help of Jacob Rein, a brilliant but tarnished former detective who has plumbed the darkest recesses of the soul. Who has seen the heart of darkness. And whose insights on evil could lead Carrie to the point of no return.

In the middle of the night, in a house on a quiet street in suburban Minneapolis, intruders silently murder Luke Ellis' parents and load him into a black SUV. The operation takes less than two minutes. Luke will wake up at The Institute, in a room that looks just like his own, except there's no window. And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents - telekinesis and telepathy - who got to this place the same way Luke did: Kalisha, Nick, George, Iris, and 10-year-old Avery Dixon.

Story
Like millions of Americans, Dr. John VanDuyne is stunned to watch President Tom Winston announce his plans to legalize narcotics in a radical bid to destroy the power of the drug cartels. Especially since, as Winston’s personal physician and a government health spokesman, VanDuyne might have expected some prior warning. And now he’s going to be right in the firing line when the uproar begins. For President Winston, his daring plan could turn out to be political suicide. For VanDuvne, it’s going to be much worse than that.

Story
Ike Randolph has been out of jail for fifteen years, with not so much as a speeding ticket in all that time. But a Black man with cops at the door knows to be afraid. The last thing he expects to hear is that his son Isiah has been murdered, along with Isiah’s white husband, Derek. Ike had never fully accepted his son but is devastated by his loss. Derek’s father Buddy Lee was almost as ashamed of Derek for being gay as Derek was ashamed his father was a criminal. Buddy Lee still has contacts in the underworld, though, and he wants to know who killed his boy.

It's been said that all great literature boils down to one of two stories—a man takes a journey, or a stranger comes to town. While mystery writers have been successfully using both approaches for generations, there's something undeniably alluring in the nature of a stranger: the uninvited guest, the unacquainted neighbor, the fish out of water. In the newest collection of stories by the Mystery Writers of America, each author weaves a fresh tale surrounding the eerie feeling that comes when a stranger enters our midst, featuring stories by prolific mystery writers.

Story
Just two years ago, the media turned Detective John Spader into a hero. He'd caught a twisted serial killer terrorizing Massachusetts, and the "Jack of Spades," as the media dubbed Spader, was born. But when the murderer walked free on a technicality - free to kill again - the public turned on Spader. Now a new serial killer is on the loose. He wears the silly, gap-toothed, grinning mask of Galaxo, Starboy Avenger! - a cartoon alien of unparalleled popularity with children.

Fascinating thriller, great narration
The Thief of All Light is a fascinating read. This is not your typical police procedural thriller as the author with his own experience as a cop has given both the characters and the plot a realism you rarely find in fiction. The story follows Carrie Santero a rookie cop and aspiring detective. Carrie is a smart and well developed character with some personal baggage. Then there's Jacob Rein a former detective disgraced and living in a self imposed hell. As the two get together along with Carrie's mentor and police chief Bill Waylon to catch a serial killer the story becomes a race against the clock and much more thrilling. The author did a great job building the story and developing all of the characters.
The narrator in the audible version did an excellent job breathing life into the story and keeping me interested. I look forward to the next installment.

WOW!
This was an exceptional book. Great storyline and action throughout. Characters are realistic and I loved the funny sarcasm between Santero and Rein.
Narration was also excellent. I hope this author comes out with #2 in the series quickly. After listening to it, I looked up the author and wasn't surprised to see he was indeed a police officer. I recommend this book to anyone who loves police procedurals and great amounts of suspense. JC

I stuck with this until the end. It's
pretty good. If you wish to skip the boggy parts where the boy fallen from grace,and the lady cop
get to know one another - during the insane pace of the search for a crazed but cunning killer, feel free. excellent narrator. Good book.

Loved it, need a sequel
I purchased this book 2 days ago. Let me just say, I am no longer an avid reader but think The Thief of All Light book has just made me rethink TV vs reading . I am a huge baby when it comes to the dark so I started reading the book as soon as we got home and had to put it down at bedtime. I was so into the book I got up at 5:30 to walk 2 miles with the dogs and purchased the audio version so I could listen to the rest of it without delay. It is definitely full of suspense, horror, and reality. Of course my favorite character was Sgt. Kenderdine since I live with him but in reality your heart attaches to each and every character in this book and I can't see where the Nextbook take Carrie and the other officers.
it was a quick reading book because you get sucked in from the first chapter to the last. I hope the next book is released relatively fast. definitely could see this being a mini series!! I highly suggest you check out this book bye Bernard Schaffer.

I cannot believe a real Detective wrote this!
You cannot suspend enough reality to enjoy this book!! A rookie detective woman who is a immature twit with impulse control issues is put in charge of her best friend’s murder case??? A man’s throat is cut but he gets up and keeps going and later still may live??!!! These issues took away from what could have been a good story. The dialogue was funny at times. But the story veers off into an alternate reality that kills it. The cop enters a house with a door that suddenly opens with no back up. Just stupid!
I really thought this would be an excellent book. I will stick to real writers !
