Publisher's summary

The Cheyenne Police Department doesn't handle many murders. So when a woman is found mutilated and crucified, detective Kyle Dixon catches a case where all the evidence has long since been destroyed. Any detective would find it a difficult investigation, but to make matters worse, Dixon is paired with Ethan Baudin: a new detective in the unit who doesn't believe the law should apply to those that chase monsters.

They find that the murder is connected to a rash of fraternity rapes and the case becomes highly publicized and politically charged. As Dixon and Baudin unravel the victim's life and follow it to Cheyenne's underbelly, it leads to connections to more rapes and disappearances of young women, and to the dark tastes of the most powerful men in the city.

The case quickly begins to threaten their careers, and even their lives. Dixon and Baudin will have to decide if the backlash is worth finding out the truth, or if some deaths are better left unexplained.

Best-selling author Victor Methos has created the beginning of a new series that explores the darkness in men's souls. This isn't the typical mystery with procedures and red tape. This is about the shadows that touch all of us.

So much better than I expected!

I was thinking this would be just another crime novel. But it was so much more. The ending! Wow! Can't wait to get the next one in the trilogy! Please put the third one on audible!

Triggers

I did enjoy this book but there are certain areas that if you had past trauma with sexual predators it will trigger you. The storyline was interesting and violent. The ending was wow wasn't expecting that, be interesting to see what the next book delves into.
Narration was great loved the accent.

Wonderfully Dark Procedural...

OMG!!!! This newly released book by Victor Methos is a must read. His writing style has changed a few times with the last few books he's written. I think this just shows just what a talented author he is. This book was originally published in 2015. It's definitely worth a credit!
This book is an exceptional police procedural with some a couple of police detectives with their own definition of right and wrong. I should add that their perspective isn't on the sunny side of the street! But rather on the dark side.
The publisher's summary gives enough information so I don't want to spoil this book by giving away any more.
I see this is a trilogy and if not yet written I really hope they will be at some point in the not too distant future.
Patrick Zeller does an outstanding job narrating.

File Under: *Dirty* Harry & *Clean* Harry

Excellent, well-paced mystery. Toward the end of the book I thought: this is the next generation Clint Eastwood (Dirty Harry) split into two characters—two sides of the independent hero mythology—including the shadow. I’m intrigued. Will definitely read more from this author.

VERY GOOD

I really liked this book and was hoping for a book 2 but apparently not or at least in "Audible". I read a couple reviews that stated too much sexual content, but I didn't find that to be true. It did have some gore but compared to others I have listened to, it didn't amount to much.

I found the story line interesting as were the characters. Good read!

It's everything others have said both good and bad

Yes, it's everything other reviewers have said both good and bad. It's predictable, graphic at times and somewhat twisted but I loved it. I love the author's writing and have read most of his books. I loved the narrator. Listened to the whole book in one sitting and was completely engaged. The dumber of the two cops was dumb, like me screaming dude cop a clue dumb, but very enjoyable and can't wait for the second book in the trilogy

No Mystery why Vanished is Great

Vanished is an easy book to start and a hard one to put down. It has early character and plot development which supports the ease of which to listen. I finished book 1 and look forward to books 2 and 3!
