Overall review

Not his finest moment. Scott is one of my favourite writers,but this story falls short of his usual efforts. The automated reading was the best part, so much better than the computer version.

Excellent suspense thriller!

When author Scott Pratt died late in 2018 he left several incomplete manuscripts which his family has hired other authors to complete.. Some of those were about a professional sports agent named Billy Beckett. Like all of Pratt's novels these are set in the mountains of east Tennessee. RIPCORD is the third novel in the Billy Beckett series and Pratt's friend Kelly Hodge completed the novel. I, and other Scott Pratt fans, are happy that his family in taking the steps to complete his partially written novels. Tim Campbell has narrated all of Scott Pratt's novels. He does a great job.

I love this Billy Beckett series!

I was listening to this book every chance I got, a lot of action and unexpected twists. I'm anxiously waiting on the next installment!

good book

It was a good Billy Beckett book overall by another author. It started off slow but picked up. Crazy ended.

Don't waste your time

The story was so unbelievable almost turned the book off. Disappointed liked book first Billy Beckett book!

COME. ON!!!

The main character (Billy Becket) purposely goads a man who he knows is uncontrollable and has murderered several people?! He tells the murderer that he's not on board with murder and would no longer represent him. Then, at the request of said murderer, he drives to the flop house, weaponless, where one of the murders took place and where his own murder is to take place. Really?!?! Just. DUMB!!! Tim Campbell is amazing as always. The secondary story around Rachel's whereabouts and the reasons she went off the deep-end was ok (though it seemed a bit incomplete) so I added a star for that but the story around Russell Mann was pretty ridiculous and unbelievable. The first 2 stories in this series were good; this one, not so much.
