Damnation Street

Weiss and Bishop Series

By: Andrew Klavan

Narrated by: Andrew Klavan

Scott Weiss is a private detective. John Foy is a professional killer. The woman is Julie Wyant, a hooker with the face of an angel.

Julie spent one night with Foy - a night of psychopathic cruelty that Foy called love. Desperate to get away from him, she vanished without a trace. And Foy wants her back.

There's only one man who can find her: Weiss, the best locate operative in the business. She's begged him not to look for her, fearing he'll bring the killer in his wake. But Weiss can't stay away.

Now, from a town called Paradise, through a wilderness that feels like hell, Weiss searches for Julie - and the killer follows, waiting for his chance.

They are two expert hunters matching move for move - until it ends in gunfire on Damnation Street.

Jim Bishop is the man

It is a pity that Andrew Klavan is so talented that he has such a diverse range. If he did nothing but write Bishop and Weiss books I would love it. The way he describes The Tower as a retreat for the mind, the way he describes motorbikes, the way he describes men lusting for women, and so much more! The narration is awesome.

The books have more edge and are more thought provoking than Jack Reacher. I have to say the Reacher books have more of a page-turning quality, but these Klavan books resonate.

Klavan has great control.

Great Naration

I really enjoy a story with lots of twists and turns. It was comical and suspenseful. The narrator certainly amplified the whole experience. I had fun listening to this book.

You think you understand, but you don't!

The author, Andrew Klavan spoke in a first-person narrative, just as in the second book of the series, Shotgun Alley. Scott Weiss is a private detective. John Foy, the Shadowman is a professional killer. Foy met Julie Wyant, a hooker, spent the evening with her, and then she disappeared. Foy was obsessed with the woman. He had to find her. Weiss was determined to find Foy before Foy found Julie. Jim Bishop, an ex-operative of Scott Weiss’s detective agency, following his conscience, wanted to protect Weiss from Foy. Andrew Klavan, a new hire in Scott Weiss’s detective agency, posed as the narrator. Inexplicably, Andrew was hired to find the daughter of Patrick McNair, an English professor at Berkley. The daughter, Emma, a student at Berkley, who Andrew was in love with. In the end, they would all meet face to face. As before, the telling of the story is complex, poetic, dark, and very compelling as it draws you in. Outstanding.

Another Great Klavan Thriller

Another great Klavan book with distinct, memorable characters and story that feels like a gripping movie.

#5 in a row for me;still yawn free

Move over Grisham ,Baldacci, Patterson,Clancy ALLLLLL youse guys!!!!!! ‘The KLAVAN ‘ is my hero👍 YOU DA MAN DREW👍

Exciting to the end

While Weiss may know what’s going to happen, Klavan kept me guessing to the end.

I'm a big fan..

I really enjoyed all three of the books in this series. I think the author is a very good narrator.

Fantastic Read

I couldn't stop listening to this book. Andrew
Klavan is maybe the best story teller that I have
ever heard or read. You will want to listen to the
books in order: Dynamite Road then Shotgun Alley
then Damnation Street.

Phenomenal

One of the best endings to any book I’ve ever read. And the fact that it seals off a trilogy is even better. I just love the way Andrew Klavan writes men and the way we think. A+

Love Andrew Klavan novels

Heart stopping action, descriptive narratives, not too overtly sexual in nature, just great writer! I can’t recommend this enough!
