About this listen

A serial killer has the city of Boston in his grip. He's killing with antique Revolutionary War weapons and leaving bodies at markers on the city's historical Freedom Trail. No one is safe—especially those with ancestry ties back to the Patriots.

FBI Special Agents Kate Walsh and Declan James rush to the aid of local authorities to help catch a killer in their hometown. As a descendant of one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, Agent Walsh is in the killer's crosshairs. Part madman and part mastermind—no one knows who is next.

With potential ties to an underground subversive group known as The Founders, can the FBI stop a killer whose wake of destruction has only just begun or will the city become paralyzed by this killer's centuries-old political agenda?

What a shame that it was impossible to finish the book! The reader killed it for me. Out-of-breath nasal voice was just too disturbing. I'd prefer an AI voice to this.

Wrong reader for this book

Good story so far bu I almost want to give up. What is it with this narrator? Is it an accent thing (if so I apologise) but instead of “sip his coffee” she says “sep”. Instead of the vowel sound “eh” for “e” she says “A”. ie: “taxt” instead of “text”. Total bastardisation and f vowels. Also end of sentences an audible “aah”. Eg: “Kate, finished getting ready “aah””
Very annoying.

Awful narration

Could not listen to more than five chapters as I found the readers voice to distracting

Narrators irritating voice

The protagonist had extensive experience of serial killers AND domestic and international terrorist groups, could read a crime scene in an instant and was an almost savant level profiler. Really!?

The narrators nasal whine was dreadful and I love a Boston accent. She drove me away
