The Vanishing Season

The Collector, Book 4

De: Dot Hutchison

Narrado por: Will Damron, Jesse Vilinsky

A recent abduction becomes an unexpected link to a decades-long spree of unspeakable crimes.

Eight-year-old Brooklyn Mercer has gone missing. And as accustomed as FBI agents Eliza Sterling and Brandon Eddison are to such harrowing cases, this one has struck a nerve. It marks the anniversary of the disappearance of Eddison’s own little sister. Disturbing, too, is the girl’s resemblance to Eliza - so uncanny they could be mother and daughter.

With Eddison’s unsettled past rising again with rage and pain, Eliza is determined to solve this case at any cost. But the closer she looks, the more reluctant she is to divulge to her increasingly shaken partner what she finds. Brooklyn isn’t the only girl of her exact description to go missing. She’s just the latest in a frightening pattern going back decades in cities throughout the entire country.

In a race against time, Eliza’s determined to bring Brooklyn home and somehow find the link to the cold case that has haunted Eddison - and the entire Crimes Against Children team - since its inception.

Love this collection

Love Dot Huchison's books. Great listen and it's super engaging to hear the stories from the perspective of different detectives on the team. There were a few random moments where the recording was skippy, but, I don't know if it was my hardware or the recording.

Narration could have been better

I was unimpressed with the narration. Lacked feeling, very dull. I switched from audible to Kindle. I enjoyed the book more without listening to the female narrator.

A Winner !

Very captivating story on how to catch a serial killer with a different twist on the way the FBI works. Kept me listening well Into the night

Dot

She is an awesome writer. I loved the collection series and will enjoy it and any other books in the future!!!

A great book

The hunt for the serial killer is riveting as well as frightening. The characters that have been in all four books in this series, are as endearing as always. I always enjoy a strong female protagonist as in this book. I would highly recommend this series. The two narrators for this book if a wonderful performance.

Gripping, funny and hard to let go till the end.

I love this author. I read all her books. I have to say though, unless they find a narrator that can actually read and speak spanish I recommend to read it instead of listening to it. I could barely understand what narrator was saying in Spanish. I’m sure it most be difficult to find the right narrator since more than one language was used in this book, but in this book more than 2 characters were using Spanish phrases. Narrator should have been been fluent in reading and speaking Spanish.

Relationships

I enjoyed learning how the relationships among the team members grow and change as the story progresses

What an amazing journey this series has been

I absolutely loved this book. I cried and I laughed. These characters have become like family and good friends. I just can not say enough about how much this book touched my soul.

broken

book 4 broke me. I cried so much for bran and eliza. I related to eliza and family abuse and coming to terms and bran when thinking bout finding out a loved 1 is gone forever. grief is a strange thing. at 1st I was unsure of this book because I was worried bout how he was depicted and the violent side they never showed til now but it was definitely very relatable

A mellow story.

This was the most uneventful, mellow story of them all. The storyline was more about the former characters and their lives. The main character was supposedly Eddleman, but actually it was Sterling. It was a pleasant read.
