Summary

From Amazon best-selling author Andrew J Brandt comes a new tale of murder and celebrity.

Author Hamilton Raines was supposed to be the "next big thing". Instead, his career has stalled after three novels, and he is reeling from a recent divorce. He needs a break. 

When he meets a mysterious woman at a coffee shop, things start to look up. With her inspiration, his newest novel becomes an instant bestseller and Hamilton finds himself thrust into the spotlight of celebrity. 

His newfound fame and fortune come at a price, however. And when long-held secrets are revealed, Hamilton Raines discovers the deadly cost of his dreams.

So good!

This story was short but so good. The author does a great job of building that uneasy feeling throughout the whole story.

Andrew Gibson captures the characters perfectly and he conveys the building tension very well. Looking forward to hearing more from him!

Brilliant!

The narrator is astoundingly good and that definitely added to my enjoyment of the book. His range of voices was exquisite.

I very much enjoyed the author's style of writing and carefully chosen words.It was fun finding out how authors feel about certain aspects of their lives through the main character Hamilton's thoughts (Bargain bin!!!)

I can't say anything about the plot as I don't want to give anything away but it is a taut psychological thriller with a good pace throughout and a great ending.

I enjoyed this and will be tracking down some more of the author's work at some point in the future.

really engaging listen

I thought I'd give this book a go as the idea sounded really good and I'm glad I did as I loved it.

the story follows a writer as he is struggling with his third book until he goes to a coffee shop and meets a new up and coming author. whilst talking to the other author our main character (Hamilton Raine's) meets a beautiful woman called Calliope who turns out to be his muse.

Hamilton then starts writing and finishes his new book which is an instant hit in pre releases.

From that moment on things start to take a dark twist with people seemingly committing suicide all around him, and his muse vanishing Hamilton starts to panic.

I guessed most of the important stuff and how the book would end but there were parts of the story I missed, which made it a brilliant story and very well narrated.

Wow! Just WOW!

I would give this book 10 stars if I could. It is extraordinary. I couldn't stop listening and finished it in 2 sessions. I was completely captivated from start to finish. The scene building, the characters,the dialogue.. I just love it. And the narration was excellent. I can't wait to get stuck into the authors other work!

Great story

An interesting psychological thriller that I listened to on audio. The story gradually unwinds drawing you in to Hamilton's life. Struggling with writer's block Hamilton meets another author and a mysterious woman in a coffee shop. These chance meetings are just what he needs to overcome his writer's block, or are they? Weaving the story together, the author captures your attention and draws you into Hamilton's life. This is the first book I've listened to by Andrew Brandt and I will definitely be looking out for more.
