The Dating App Assaults

Peyton Brooks, FBI: Hate Crimes Division: Book 1

De: M.L. Hamilton

Narrado por: Kelley Hazen

After her maternity leave, Peyton reluctantly returns to her job as the lead for the Hate Crimes Division. Taking this job was an opportunity she couldn’t pass up. It meant staying home with her growing family and being there for all of her baby’s firsts, but this team is not like her last one, and personality conflicts are inevitable.

To complicate things further, the nature of the crimes she must now solve is heartbreaking. Hate crimes are a particularly heinous set of cases, involving marginalized people in horrifying predicaments, and her first case is no exception. When gay men are being assaulted for using a popular dating app, Peyton and her team must discover the perpetrators as quickly as they can, before another young man winds up injured, or worse, dead.

But can she hold her team together in order to solve this case? And will the demands of a new leadership role put unnecessary strain on her family?

With each swipe left, another innocent victim may be in the crosshairs of an assailant who has no mercy.

Peyton

I've listened to the entire 233 hrs of the Peyton Brooks series and as a truck driver, it has kept me entertained. I cry because now I'm not sure what to do with my time.. I look forward to the next book and have fallen in love with all the characters.

An Awesome Listen

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the narrator and enjoyed it very much. The first book in the new series is here and it is delightful. All the familiar characters for the previous series are here along with a few new ones, including Piper Peyton's and Marco's 7 month old daughter. Peyton has her first case in the Hate Crimes division with a team that's not quite in sync. Marco has his crew look at a 13 year old missing person case. The story maybe new, but it's the same great writing and narrating that has provided hours of listening pleasure with unique characters and intriguing plots. Looking forward to the next one.

One of the best stories for Peyton

This dating app assault story is one of the best of the series and I welcome the beginning of a new book for Peyton Brooks Hate Sq- it is humorous it is a little more complicated, so I had to listen to it twice to get the full depth of it But it is great😁

Long Wait

I love the characters but finally Peyton is back with new character of Piper Marco and her daughter. In this book Peyton is trying to solve a hate crime who uses a dating app to hurt and even kill gay guys, while Marco is trying to solve a 13yr missing persons case. Cannot wait for next book. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. Thank you

A great new series

I was a beyond thrilled to see that there is a new Peyton Brooks series!

There are two great cases to keep you guessing: one investigated by the FBI Hate Crimes division, led by Peyton, and the other tackled by the SFPD, led by Marco. ML Hamilton doesn’t disappoint as she unveils the storyline. A satisfying resolution, but always leaving me wanting more.

There are so many great characters that have been introduced in the prior series and they are back, but prepare to meet some new characters too. Kelley Hazen brings a great consistency as she voices all of the characters, both old and new. It’s wonderful to hit play, sit back with my eyes closed and just enjoy the performance.

Leave woke at the door and just tell a great story

I disliked the wokeness and the connotations that if you are a Christian then that makes you public enemy #1.

Excellent!

The Peyton Brooks books are all enjoyable with interesting, quirky characters. This latest book is no different. It was an entertaining listen. I'm looking forward to the next book(s) in the series to see how the characters and relationships change and progress.

Great Read

The Dating App Assaults (Peyton Brooks, FBI: Hate Crimes Division: Book 1) was a great read by M.L. Hamilton. Peyton reluctantly returns to her job as the lead for the Hate Crimes Division after her maternity leave. This new team is much different than her last and there are personality conflicts. This time the nature of the crimes are heartbreaking. In her first case, gay men are being assaulted for using a popular dating app. The team must discover the perpetrators as quickly as possible. I loved listening to the life that Kelley Hazen brought to the characters and cant wait to read more by the author.

Characters

I want to have all of these characters over for dinner! I have really bonded with them.

Another great pivot in the series

So glad to be back with the gang! Another adventure with Peyton and Marco. The narration is just outstanding. If you’re new to these characters then it’s well worth your time to backtrack to the beginning. Can’t wait for the next one.
