Clawback

An Ali Reynolds Novel

By: J. A. Jance

Narrated by: Karen Ziemba

In New York Times best-selling author J. A. Jance's latest thriller, Ali Reynolds faces her most controversial mystery yet: solving the murder of a man whose Ponzi scheme bankrupted hundreds of people and left them seeking justice...or revenge.

When Ali's parents lose their life savings to a Ponzi scheme, her father goes to confront his longtime friend and financial advisor only to stumble into the scene of a bloody double homicide. With her father suddenly a prime suspect, Ali and her husband work to clear her father's name while at the same time seeking justice for her parents as well as the scheme's other suddenly impoverished victims, one of who is a stone-cold killer.

Clawback

knock up another amazing thriller for JA Jance. Ali Reynolds and Joanne Brady are 2 of my favorite female characters.

almost Beaumont

I am throughly enjoining every book in this series...Ali is refreshing as all of her characters. please write more of this series, or at least another series like this...

Awesome as usual!

The have enjoyed read J.A. Jance for many many years. The Ali Reynolds series is as good as her Beaumont series. The narrator is fantastic.

NEW Author for me

J.A. Jance's books are new to me and Clawback was my first read. Just finished it and LOVED LOVED LOVED this book Her writing, story line, characters. I'm hooked for sure. I will now start at the beginning of the Ali Reynolds series - Edge of Evil will be by next read.

They Do Good Work

The heroines and heroes are once again successful in this latest J A Jance book. They not only "do good work," but so does Karen Ziemba whose narration was spot on. Jance's many books speak for themselves, I am but one of many, many fans. Jance is up-to-date with the times, portrays many perspectives well, and is just a darn good story teller. I am grateful she is!!!

Jance at her best!

One of the best and most riveting of JA Jance's books I have read thus far!

Glad that parents got out of the kitchen

This is a Good solid story. Nice introduction of Camille. She adds more diversity to character list and she is a "go-getter"! Looking forward to more stories that include her. Also some interesting new information about Stu. Who knew that he was on the autism spectrum?

Sometimes the pace or numerous provided details are nauseating. When Bob was at the police station, the description of him wetting himself and to watch what he was put through was so painful. The murder scene was very descriptive and long. To hear that Bob slipped in some blood and fell on his dying friend was pitiful. I felt so bad for him. Similarly painful was the minute details about Cami's escape on the golf course. I was yelling "get on with it!"

It Was refreshing to learn that Ali's parents also have some sleuthing skills. It was time for Edie and Bob to get out of the kitchen and enjoy life. Too bad that they lost a good friend and so much money, but I am glad that they contributed to solving the case. Now I would like to know more about Ali's parents' experiences in their new home. I would bet that the residents have a lot secrets to uncover.

Somewhat Disappointed in the cursory appearances of the Sister and the old butler. Why is B so busy? He doesn't seem to spend much time with Ali. He is so concerned about losing her but he flies all over the world and connects mostly via telephone conversations.

I love this series and devour the new books when they become available on audible. I am reading the books in order. Are there only 5? I may have to re-listen to some of the earlier ones because there has been a lot of time in between and I think that I am missing some background information. I was mystified about the refugees that Ali, the Sister and governor were assisting? Where did this storyline come from?

Keep the stories coming about Ali's parents, her son and his family, the butler and his rekindled love, Camille, and the girls who took over the investment company. What about the scholarship winners? So many topics to write about! Keep the narrator because she IS Ali.

more fun with Ali

This is another gripping story about Ali and her group. The narration is well done too! I enjoy Jance"s books for their easy to read style and suspenseful storylines.

well plotted story

Usually I save my audio books for walking and driving. this was too exciting-must finish!

A DOUBLE MURDER BECOMES A QUADRUPLE MURDER

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

YES, IT WAS VERY INTERESTING HOW THE PLOT GREW AND MORE AND MORE PEOPLE WERE INVOLVED. BRUTAL MURDERS WERE JUST THE BEGINNING. THE TOWN'S PEOPLE LOST THEIR MONEY N AN ELABORATE PONZI SCHEME.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Clawback?

WHEN BOB LARSON DECIDES TO TAKE HI OWN LIFE BECAUSE ALL HIS AND HIS WIFE'S SAVINGS HAVE BEEN LOST. HIS COMING TO HIS SENSES WAS MEMORABLE.

Which character – as performed by Karen Ziemba – was your favorite?

ALI REYNOLDS - SHE'S SO ON TOP OF THINGS.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

WHEN A DEAL IS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE.....
