The Violet Darger Mystery Thriller Box Set

By: L.T. Vargus, Tim McBain

Narrated by: Kate Marcin

This audiobook includes the first four thrillers in the Violet Darger series: Dead End Girl, Image in a Cracked Mirror, Killing Season, and The Last Victim.

Start at the beginning of the Violet Darger saga with Dead End Girl:

Her body is broken. Wrapped in plastic. Dumped on the side of the road. She is the first. There will be more.

The most recent body was discovered in the grease dumpster behind a Burger King. Dismembered. Shoved into two garbage bags and lowered into the murky oil.

Now, rookie agent Violet Darger gets the most important assignment of her career. She travels to the Midwest to face a killer unlike anything she's seen. Aggressive. Territorial. Deranged and driven.

Another mutilated corpse was found next to a roller rink. A third in the gutter in a residential neighborhood. These bold displays of violence shock the rural community and rattle local law enforcement.

Who could carry out such brutality? And why?

Unfortunately for agent Darger, there's little physical evidence to work with, and the only witnesses prove to be unreliable. The case seems hopeless. If she fails, more will die. He will kill again and again.

The victims harbor dark secrets. The clues twist and writhe and refuse to keep still. And the killer watches the investigation on the nightly news, gleeful to relive the violence, knowing that he can't be stopped.

The serial killer thriller that "refuses to let go until you've listened to the last sentence".

A pause-resisting thriller series packed with heart-stopping suspense. Fans of John Sandford, Michael Connelly, Karin Slaughter, and Lisa Gardner should get to know Violet Darger.

Super Thrilling

I'm loving Violet Darger. She's a great, strong female lead who rocks in the world of men. Well-done. So glad she's not a cliche female...

Creepy Good

If you like details, this book is not for the faint of heart! I actually shivered at the details so vividly described. If gore is not your thing go elsewhere.
Mystery, intrigue, a little romance this is worth the read if you can handle it.

review

the first book was great except the ending, then there was a short story that could have been added to another book, and the last book wasn't even that it was like a teaser.

the performance wasn't bad , kept saying gyro instead of Euro for the Greek sandwich,and seme, instead of sem-i .

the story is great just needs more like the first one.

From the beginning book this series grabs you

Sometimes a characters in a series become real to you. Become friends. You begin to worry what's going to happen to them, in each story. That's what happens here with Violet and Loshak. With each story you become drawn further into their lives as investigators and as people. The writing is crisp and inviting making you want to linger over each tale told. Each word written making you excited for the next. Each new story is more in depth with more devious opponents each time. You'll find yourself longing to figure out how they come up with such clever villains. The narration is smooth and dreamlike keeping you completely entranced.

WHAT A BADASS

I totally am obsessed with Ms. Darger. I am in a wheelchair and she lives a fascinating life and lives it to the fullest. i wish her and Owen would work.

Awesome

THIS REVIEW IS FOR BOTH THE AUDIOBOOK AND EBOOK VERSIONS
This boxset includes books 1-2.5 Dead End Girl, Image in a Cracked Mirror, Killing Season, and The Last Victim all narration preformed by Kate Marcin. I really enjoyed her voice, she was very easy to follow. Great characters in each book, also enjoyed how much was not only from the "good guys" but also the criminals it made the boxset very intriguing with that perspective to the stories. Loved it both the stories and the narration was perfect I would recommend this set. Also want to mention as I read along with the narrator I did pick up on a few differences between the audio version and the ebook version for example the preview for the next book at the end was longer in the audio version and there was a few other differences within the stories nothing negative just different.

Well worth the credit!

I have truly enjoyed the Violet Darger series. Can’t wait to explore the Loshack series as well. Good story with good flow and good narration. Was extremely pleased with the sample of the next book in the series. It was actually long enough for me to tell whether I thought I’d like it or not! Can’t wait for more.

very immature

Narrator is good. Not his fault that writing and characters are not well done. It feels like it was written by teen for teen

Gory but good plot lines

I like the stories although there’s a lot of gory detail. I didn’t like the short story interrupting the flow of the books and saw no reason for it. My main problem is that I found Violet Darger just too unlikeable, Willful, headstrong, and stunningly naive, she showed me in the first book that she really wasn’t ready to be an agent, and sadly, she appeared a slow learner, especially when dealing with procedural matters like castling for backup. I am not looking for anymore of Violet Darger but will try the Loshak series because the author really can write even if his Violet was unbelievable.

29 hours of non-stop action

Sometimes characters get inside your head, Violet Darger is one of those characters. This box set is maybe the best way to introduce yourself to a very memorable character who is always neck deep in action and more than her fair share of sleuthing. Violet is one of the few characters that I have no problem revisiting time and again, having read the individual books, this was an opportunity to revisit her, and once again Kate Marcin brought the stories and characters to life.
