Killer Ambition

A Rachel Knight Novel

By: Marcia Clark

Narrated by: January LaVoy

When the daughter of a billionaire Hollywood director is found murdered after what appears to be a kidnapping gone wrong, Los Angeles Special Trials prosecutor Rachel Knight and Detective Bailey Keller find themselves at the epicenter of a combustible and high-profile court case.

Then a prime suspect is revealed to be one of Hollywood's most popular and powerful talent managers - and best friend to the victim's father. With the director vouching for the manager's innocence, the Hollywood media machine commences an all-out war designed to discredit both Rachel and her case. Killer Ambition is at once a thrilling ride through the darker side of Tinseltown and a stunning courtroom drama with the brilliant insider's perspective that Marcia Clark is uniquely qualified to give.

WOW

Who knew Marcia Clark was a great writer. Couldn't pot it down. Kept my interest

Keep them coming

I have really come to like Marcia Clark's series featuring Rachel Knight. I somehow think the character is based (loosely) on herself, and so I have to say - Marcia is a cool chick. That said, her books tend to go just a tad too long, but the narration from January LaVoy nails it every time. NEVER let anyone else do this series narration!

Keeping up with the series!

Another Rachel Knight story with all the twists and turns. A good read. a few sad parts

Loved it

Absolutely loved this. I listened to this one first, not realizing it was part of a series. So excited to listen to the other Rachel Knight books!

Very well done!

Really loved this book, one of my favorite series. Marcia writes so well and the reading is spot on!

Enthralling

Marcia Clark continues to weave spellbinding tales. Her work is a pleasure to listen to.

Another terrific thriller from Marcia Clarke!

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

Yes, absolutely. As with her other books I have read/listened to, I am always impressed with her writing. There is always twists in the plot to keep you guessing and she balances it with some drama and comedy as well.

What other book might you compare Killer Ambition to and why?

Witness for the Defence I would say - just because they are both mysteries surrounding a murder and you really don't find out who the killer is until the end.

Have you listened to any of January LaVoy’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, I specifically add her's to my wish lists. I think she is a wonderful narrator and her voice suits Rachel Knight's character perfectly! I think I have read all of the Rachel Knight books and cannot wait for more!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Certain spots made me laugh for sure - that's one of the things I love about her books - they are mysteries but also have some funny parts to lighten it up.

Interesting legal drama

Really enjoyable story, and interesting characters. Being an LA girl, it was fun knowing exactly where they all were at any given time.

Loved this storyline!

I really enjoyed this book and all the twist and turns it had. With each chapter I felt like I was right there in the story. I couldn't stop listening to it. I recommend this book.

She did it AGAIN!

I loved every minute! Marcia Clark is definitely my favorite author. Can't wait to start the next one!
