Carla Olmeda is a killing machine. Pure and simple. However, her mental state plays on Silence’s conscience as he tries to determine whether she is a willing and mentally stable killer or an unstable and unaware innocent killer. He has to figure it out quickly because the numbers of graphic deaths are building and his own may be next!
The author, Erik Carter excels at creating riveting and action-packed stories with likable characters and nail-biting plot twists. Carter’s dialogue is realistic and blends with the plot perfectly, keeping the story moving at a fast pace. Carter is methodical in his reveals and gives nothing away ahead of time.
The narrator, Gary Bennet, is Silence Jones! I love how he naturally slips this character on with each book with continuity and clarity. He allows us to see Silence’s growth as a character by using a voice that is reflective of this character’s personality. Silence has a scratchy voice that demonstrates his inability to speak due to an injury. Bennet projects an authentic-sounding voice that captures the rough and deadly essence of Silence. Although Bennet gives a unique sound to each of the characters, it is with Silence Jones that we see it the strongest as he is the main character in the series. Bennet’s delivery is spot on and allows the listener to be drawn into the drama and experience it.
This is a great thriller series that I would highly recommend. It is not only entertaining but edge-of-your-seat action as well!
