Blood of Others

By: Rick Mofina

Narrated by: Christian Rummel

Blood of Others received one of the world's top literary prizes for crime fiction, the 2003 Arthur Ellis Award, given by the Crime Writers of Canada for Best Novel. In his praise of the book, James Patterson, the number-one worldwide best-selling author, said Blood of Others was "tense, realistic, and scary in all the right places".

The disappearance and murder of a lonely San Francisco insurance clerk puts a relentless crime reporter and a legendary homicide cop on separate tracks in their pursuit of a killer. The suspect lures solitary women out of their quiet worlds and into his nightmare as he races the clock and travels the globe searching for the one woman who will forgive the unforgivable. In the course of a widening investigation, Olivia Grant, a shy gift store sales manager who aches to escape her painful solitude, meets Ben Wyatt, an outcast San Francisco cop on the case. Wyatt is a man gripped with self-doubt over the shooting of his former partner.

Blood of Others is a study of loneliness and human frailties; a story steeped in terrifying suspense that threatens to destroy the lives of those drawn into it as it rockets to a heart-pounding conclusion.

Good book, Good narrator

This isn't my favorite Rick Morfino but a really good one.Love the characters in this series. The vilin is far fetched but the rest of the characters seem like true to life people.I find myself getting angry ,which shows how into the books I get..This is a true police procedural ,where they follow evidence.Not a disguised romance or just one action scene after another.If that's what you like read the entire series. It's Great

What Spell Bounding Story

What a page turner excellently written. Full of twists & turns. A pager turner you can’t put down. Story unwinds a serial killers story and a cop who is shun at every turn, plus the the women involved.

Good one.

I enjoyed it but the lead detective annoyed me a great deal. I would recommend.

Spellbinding

Any additional comments?

Great series. Great male narration

ok

getting kind of annoyed with the characters the cop was really rude in this book to a fellow police officer and it was just kind of frustrating

Great plot

This was my 2nd Rick Molina book. Loved the twisted mind theme but hate the abusive bosses. That part of Ricks story line is just really disturbing and it ran through the series. Excellent performance by all readers

New favorite author

I was so glad to hear the second book. I had no idea there were more. Love this narrator. Author is a good storyteller.

Blood of Others

As a journalist and lover of police novels, the combination of newspaper and law enforcement in this book was wonderful! It took a few chapters to get used to all the points of view from several characters. I particularly enjoyed the parts of the story told from the killer's viewpoint.

I did not realize this was part of a series until I was about halfway through the book. I will start at the beginning of the series now! I have read several of Rick Mofina's books and find his work top notch. I saw this book for free on Bookbub and then discovered that audio would be only $1.99. I grabbed both offers because of Mofina's name.

Weak writing, but still enjoyable

Every cliché is utilized in this story. And still, I listened to the whole thing.

Awesome read!!

Rick Mofina has a way of spinning a web and ensnaring the reader into wonderfully suspenseful tales!
