About this listen

The next audiobook of psychological suspense and obsession from the author of the blockbuster best seller legal thriller Exit Strategy.

A sinister crime lies deep underwater....

A Katerina Carter Legal Thriller

On fraud investigator Katerina Carter's trip to a remote island aboard a luxurious yacht, she suspects the boat's slick and charming owner is hiding a dark secret. With her cunning instinct for sniffing out malevolent cons, Kat tries to warn her friends that something is very wrong with their host and that his moneymaking scheme smells fishy. And why is she the only one who thinks he's not being completely honest? While exploring the island, Kat and her friends research the rumors of a sinister cult, the Aquarian Foundation, and search for buried treasure.

The cult swindled people out of their money, and now the same situation is starting to eerily echo their present circumstances. That is if Kat can prove to the others that if something sounds too good to be true, it usually is....

When Kat's warnings fall on deaf ears, she uncovers a horrifying truth that will place those closest to her in mortal danger. Now it's a race against the clock for Kat to expose a killer before he strikes again.

Blowout is the third book in the Katerina Carter Legal Thriller series and a riveting psychological legal thriller you'll want to listen to with the lights on!

Once again Katerina Carter has to solve another fraud case. Her best friend has been duped by a conman, and it looks like her boyfriend and uncle are also being taken in by him.

This is the third book I’ve read/listened to in this series and I want more! The characters are all very believable. I love Kat. She is smart and tenacious so why oh why does she put up with Jas?? I think it’s time she ditched him! The story, as always, is gripping and suspenseful and paced just right, and I loved hearing about the history of the island and the cult.

Petrea Burchard’s narration was wonderful and she differentiates between the different voices brilliantly, especially Uncle Harry.

Hot on the heels of Game Theory, Katerina Carter is at it again, sorting the wheat from the chaff. She is usually aided and abetted, and occasionally hindered, by her boyfriend Jas and her Uncle Harry, and this adventure proved no exception. I felt for Kat in this book; her friend has been duped by a conman, who has also managed to turn Jas and Uncle Harry's heads. So much so they never even noticed when she got left behind in the cave. Kat behaved way better than I would have done; I'd have killed Jas! Kat goes about building the case with solid evidence before confronting her doe eyed friend, boyfriend and uncle. Thank goodness they finally listen or we might have had a very different outcome. Another intriguing and multi-layered puzzle solved expertly by Kat. Phew! The author notes at the end of the book were very interesting and much appreciated. Excellent narration from Petrea Burchard.

Another intriguing caper

I think this is the most intense story in the series of Katerina Carter. I was hanging on the edge of me seat through the whole book. I could not put it down because I had to know what would happen next. Colleen Cross is a wonderful suspense writer. She always delivers a book full of intrigue and twists. Blowout perfectly fills the need for a suspense story. It brings some personal touches to it and we get to know a little more about Katerina and her uncle. I loved this story from the first chapter. I look forward to reading more in this series.

Petera Buchard keeps this series consistent with the narration. Each character is always the same tone and infliction. Petrea makes the series flow from one book to the next. I felt as if it were a TV show and each book was another episode. I enjoyed this narration and look forward to hearing more.

Who is the debonair business tycoon who's yacht the story is centred around? Is Kat's friend making a huge mistake in marrying him? Full of mystery and intrigue the plot unfolds as Kat unearths anomalies and untruths. The deadly truth puts our heroine and party in mortal danger. This is well written and wonderfully narrated to give the listener a great experience.

I really like Colleen Cross's Katerina Carter series. Katerina's forensic finance expertise gets her into all manner of trouble, and in this story, even when she's not on a case. As the blurb says, in this story, she suspects her best friend's fiance of hiding a dark secret, and to the reader, it's pretty clear what that secret is.

That doesn't spoil the fun as we follow Katerina's adventures, which are made all the better because Uncle Harry is also along for the ride this time. And what's accountancy without danger, and there is plenty of that for Katerina in this book, who once again manages to piece the clues together just in time.

I listened to this on audio, and whilst it's book 3, it could easily be read or listened to as a standalone. Oh, and great narration from Petrea Burchard!

Another great Katerina Carter novel
