Kills Well with Others

By: Deanna Raybourn

Narrated by: Jane Oppenheimer, Christina Delaine

“Much like fine wine, battle-hardened assassins grow better with age.”—#1 New York Times bestselling author Lisa Gardner

Four women assassins, senior in status—and in age—sharpen their knives for another bloody good adventure in this riotous follow-up to the New York Times bestselling sensation Killers of a Certain Age.

After more than a year of laying low, Billie, Helen, Mary Alice, and Natalie are called back into action. They have enjoyed their time off, but the lack of excitement is starting to chafe: a professional killer can only take so many watercolor classes and yoga sessions without itching to strangle someone...literally. When they receive a summons from the head of the elite assassin organization known as the Museum, they are ready tackle the greatest challenge of their careers.

Someone on the inside has compiled a list of important kills committed by Museum agents, connected to a single, shadowy figure, an Eastern European gangster with an iron fist, some serious criminal ambition, and a tendency to kill first and ask questions later. This new nemesis is murdering agents who got in the way of their power hungry plans and the aging quartet of killers is next.

Together the foursome embark on a wild ride across the globe on the double mission of rooting out the Museum’s mole and hunting down the gangster who seems to know their next move before they make it. Their enemy is unlike any they’ve faced before, and it will take all their killer experience to get out of this mission alive.

More please!!!

outstanding character development and the historical content brought some of my favorite time spent listening.

Love these characters

The plot, action and dialogue were just as good as the first. Loved it!

I really enjoy the backstory in between the current one being told. I hope for more sequels. Maybe a Billie & Tavaner sub series??? Hint hint. Anyway, hoping for another. Great listen. Great choice for narrators too.

even better than the first

loved the voiced narratives. the story line was fabulous. I can't get enough of the 4 killer sphinxes

It was another fun ride.

Killers of a certain age and kills well with others. We're 2 great adventures, a lot like golden girls who were once assassins. i think a show should be in the works for these characters.

Fantastic Fun

Phew! What wild ride with these four fabulous “necessary monsters” ….a phenomenal follow up to book one.
