WORLD-FAMOUS AUTHORS ARE BEING KILLED USING THE METHODS IN THEIR STORIES

The world's number one best-selling novelist and his wife are found dead in their east Florida beach home — from no apparent cause. Something outrageous has been done to the bodies.

FBI Special Agent Naomi Soul and her partner Xue Sang are ordered to solve the crime.

On the west coast of Florida, another best-selling author is murdered. The method is both horrible and graphic. Are the two deaths connected? The MOs are completely different, but the two authors knew each other well. One thing is clear. Someone is killing authors using the methods in their stories.

Then, as more famous corpses are discovered, the killers begin burning libraries.

These terrorists seem unstoppable. What is their ultimate goal, to destroy the publishing industry? Naomi and Xue may be the pop literary world's best chance to survive.

Naomi plays a crucial role in Franklin, Everon, and Victoria's investigation — figuring out who destroyed New York — in Book 3 of the State Of Reason mystery: Finding Reason.

Very Enjoyable Serial Killer Thriller

A nicely plotted serial killer murder mystery with an interesting killing MO. Well worth a listen

Convoluted Mystery

This was my first experience with this author's work, and it was entertaining; however, what made this book outstanding was the narration provided by Daniela Acitelli. I enjoyed the convoluted mystery. I thought the depiction of a police procedural in trying to determine the identity of a multi-state serial killer was realistic. I liked that the author brought up the inconsistencies between real life police work and other media, but then there was the scene of a high-end tech which seemed to negate that assertion. I liked FBI Special Agent Naomi Soul, but I could have done with a few less details regarding her love life. I was entertained by Daniela Acitelli's narration, and her performance added to my enjoyment of this story. I was given a copy of the audiobook. I volunteered, without financial gain, to post this review which reflected my honest opinions regarding this audiobook.

Good

This was a good book. I enjoyed it very much! It's the first I've listened to or read by this author. The narrator does a great job bringing the characters to life.
