Fire with Fire

A Novel

De: Candice Fox

Narrado por: Jay Aaseng

Candice Fox's Fire with Fire is a non-stop, gripping thriller from "a bright new star in crime fiction." (James Patterson)

A pair of desperate parents. A man on the run. A rookie cop.

Four people with everything on the line.

What will be left in the ashes of the next 24 hours?

Following their daughter's mysterious disappearance, Ryan and Elsie Delaney have taken the LAPD forensic lab hostage, and have given law enforcement an ultimatum: Find their daughter, Tilly, or they will destroy all the evidence they can find to other cold cases.

Detective Charlie Hoskins has been undercover in a deadly motorcycle gang for five years. With his cover blown, he has no choice but to find Tilly himself, or lose everything he's worked for as the lab burns.

Lynette Lamb was a police officer—until yesterday, when she was fired before her first beat. Figuring out what happened to Tilly is her one and only chance at rejoining the career she's prepared her whole life for.

Hoskins and Lamb will have to team up to solve this cold case, and will have to move fast—before the situation explodes.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Jay Aaseng takes an outstanding, edge-of-your-seat crime thriller and makes it even better with a pitch-perfect execution.... The many characters in this audiobook range from from the hard-bitten detectives to the policewoman who was fired on her first day on the job, and assorted cops and criminals. Aaseng makes them all seem human as rebel Detective Charlie Hoskins teams up with the recently fired rookie cop, Lynette Lamb, to do the impossible: find Tilly or her body." (AudioFile)

Good story

I really Liked the characters and think you will too. Select this author! You won’t regret

Great, griping story

This story is twisty, funny, and totally engrossing. I absolutely loved it. The narrator reads really quickly. I actually slowed down the speed…which I’ve never done before…and that made it a better pace.

Great Book🌟🌟🌟

Love all her books…this one did not disappoint! Hopefully this is just the beginning of a great new series!

Officer Lamb

I have enjoyed every single book by Candace Fox and she didn't disappoint me with this book. I love a Happy Ending!

Hopefully this will be a series!!

The Crimson Lake series was top notch and the few book in between that series and this new book were ok in my opinion. So I went into this book thinking it was going to be subpar. It was one of my top reads for 2023. Hope it turns into a series!

True crime story!!!!

Candice Fox did excellent job with this book. I enjoyed it from start to finish, looking forward to more spectacular stories, a lot of suspense, twists, and turns with the story readers you will not be disappointed.

A book to keep your attention

I must preface this with a confession that I am a fan of Candice Fox. But I also listen to about five audio books per month and her stories always keep me engaged with just right pacing, interesting characters, and plots that don’t give away the ending too soon. Fire With Fire did not disappoint. The contrast in age and experience between the women, the youthful Lamb and seasoned Ferboden and their contrasting response to crisis was an interesting way to present dimension in the storyline that stepped away from the typical male-female juxtaposition. The only element in this story that seemed glossed over for me was any mention of concern for maintaining the chain of custody for evidence. Seems to me the value of evidence obviously accessed by those who threatened to destroy it, destroyed or not, would be diminished. However, I was able to overlook that element of the storyline in favor of enjoying the rest.

Great story, poor narration

Overall, this is a good listen. I enjoyed the story and the characters. But the narrator was terrible. Could not pronounce simple words such as pedophile and aluminum. Very distracting!

Great twists and turns!

I wasn’t in love with all of the dialogue but I gave this book a second chance and am glad I did.

Fire With Fire

Loved the characters and the action in this book. It’s a great story. I hope we see them again in a future novel.
