A Patient Man

By: J.W. Bouchard

After his wife is brutally murdered, police officer Kyle Willing will do whatever it takes to bring her killer to justice.

As Kyle grapples with loss and raising his eight-year-old son on his own, he is given an opportunity for revenge by his brother-in-law, best-selling mystery writer Thomas Drake. Drake can give Kyle just what he wants: a chance at catching his wife's killer.

But can Kyle trust his sister's husband? The two men have been rivals since high school, and it appears that Drake might have an agenda of his own.

As Drake takes steps to orchestrate the perfect murder, Kyle must decide how far he is willing to go to get revenge. He will have to choose between upholding the laws he was sworn to protect and exacting his own unique brand of justice.

When a man loses everything, how far will he go for revenge?

Great story...slow start but great twists and turns and an unexpected ending. The narrator was great and the storyline was perfect. I would definitely recommend this to lovers of mystery.

a twisty plot with believable characters

after listening to the whole story it's obvious who the mastermind killer is from major hints throughout. it is probably the guy you suspected. but J.W. Bouchard throws a curve ball at the end that turns the final confrontation into a showdown of an entirely different sort with a scrap of redemption for the villain. the donut eating detective seems a little too dumb to be a cop. even in modern day America. the main character is pretty believable throughout, though a little slow on the uptake. seems to have the right pacing for a crime novel. feeds just the right amount of information to keep the reader unsure till the end. performance seems a little lackluster at times, but Mr. Foster does a reasonable range of voices and his reading is easy to follow.

This is a suspense, murder mystery novel with just the right amount of twists and turns to keep you on the edge of your seat. I figured out parts, but had to keep listening to make sure I was correct. I really liked this book.

I will look for more from this author.



The narration was well done, I felt like I knew the characters.

2nd Reading

When I read this book the 1st I didn't get an understanding of it so I read it again and the 2nd time I understood it better it was good reading I did enjoy it I was surprised by the ending the narration was good also the author is also good I look forward to reading more of his novels.

A Patient Man... takes Patience

The story of A Patient Man is thought out but familiar to other stories of the same genre, it was at times predictable. If it was broken up with a bit more suspense it would have been a more fascinating story, but it was enjoyable. It was slow at the beginning but picked up steam.

I found the narration of the book to be very clear, but would have liked some inflection or tonal differences for the different characters or emotions.

Enjoyed it overall.
