DCI Turner Series?

Yes, another fine novel.

I have long since taken umbrage that this series is called the “DI Luc Callanach” series. I’m certain all readers of these novels adore Luc Callanach. With that said, DCI Ava Turner is the real badass. How paternalistic to name this series after the leading man. I’m not a hardcore feminist. Isn’t it time to rename this series to the Turner and Callanach series? Seriously.

Everything was fabulous!

I love the characters in all
Of the DI Callanach series. The narrator is phenomenal!

A compelling story despite some truly ghoulish elements

I did not enjoy some of the voice choices by the narrator in this one, particularly Luc’s French Interpol partner. But, all in all, a satisfying experience.

gruesome

I love this series but I found my self fast forwarding through the graphic torturous violence and sexual assault against women in this one. The story is great as always but one of the chapters I just had to fast-forward to the end of the chapter. I did read the next book and still love the series but this one was a little rough

Awesome But...

I am totally ready for Ava & Jean Luke to ‘Get It On’! ;)
...I can’t wait to listen to the next book!
