Fallen Veil

A Peyton Brooks Homicide: The Early Cases, Book 4

By: M.L. Hamilton

Narrated by: Kelley Hazen

Peyton and Marco have solved many challenging cases with the SFPD Homicide Division, but when a respiratory therapist, Savannah Daniels, is found murdered in her apartment, the evidence is particularly thin. That is until Savannah herself offers them assistance from beyond the grave. Will Peyton and Marco be able to accept that the veil has fallen enough for Savannah to help solve her own murder, or will a cold-blooded killer escape justice?

A Peyton Brooks Homicide follows San Francisco’s dynamic crime-fighting duo, Peyton Brooks and Marco D’Angelo, through their early cases in the Homicide Division.

An Awesome Series

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the narrator and enjoyed it very much. It’s always fun to listen to Peyton and Marco adventures from their earlier cases. When respiratory therapist, Savannah Daniels is found dead and all leads go nowhere. Should they listen to a woman visions of the murder. As with all the other Peyton books, this book is suspenseful and action pack showing both the bad and good sides of society. This combination of author and narrator creates pure enjoyment with the author has a special talent to create characters and stories that feel real and the narrator brings every story to life. This story is just the perfect length for a nice escape.

A Thrilling Case with Heart and Depth

"Fallen Veil" by M.L. Hamilton is another stellar addition to the Peyton Brooks Homicide: The Early Cases series. From the opening scene, the story grips you with a complex murder investigation that unfolds with precision and suspense. The author’s ability to weave procedural detail with character-driven storytelling is truly impressive.

What really stood out in this book was the evolution of Peyton and Marco’s relationship. Their growing connection feels natural and adds emotional depth without overshadowing the central mystery. The entire team dynamic remains strong, and it’s always a pleasure to revisit these familiar characters as they work together to solve the case.

Kelley Hazen’s narration elevates the experience to another level. Her voice work is impeccable—each character is distinct, and the emotional tone is spot-on throughout. She brings intensity to the tense moments and warmth to the personal interactions, making this audiobook impossible to pause.

Fans of crime fiction and character-rich narratives will find Fallen Veil a perfect blend of intrigue and heart. This series continues to deliver, and I’m eagerly looking forward to what comes next for Peyton and her team.
