À propos de cet audio

William Fawkes, a controversial detective known as The Wolf, has just been reinstated to his post after he was suspended for assaulting a vindicated suspect. Still under psychological evaluation, Fawkes returns to the force eager for a big case. When his former partner and friend, detective Emily Baxter, calls him to a crime scene, he's sure this is it: the body is made of the dismembered parts of six victims, sewn together like a puppet - a corpse that becomes known as "The Ragdoll".

Fawkes is tasked with identifying the six victims, but that gets dicey when his reporter ex-wife anonymously receives photographs from the crime scene, along with a list of six names, and the dates on which the Ragdoll Killer plans to murder them.

The final name on the list is Fawkes.

Baxter and her trainee partner, Alex Edmunds, hone in on figuring out what links the victims together before the killer strikes again. But for Fawkes, seeing his name on the list sparks a dark memory, and he fears that the catalyst for these killings has more to do with him - and his past - than anyone realizes.

With a breakneck pace, a twisty plot, and a wicked sense of humor, Ragdoll announces the arrival of the hottest new brand in crime fiction.

A pretty good series opener. An enjoyably weird, gruesome crime and solid writing, even though I had to do a whole lot of disbelief suspending. Not a huge fan of the lead characters, who are straight up terrible people (the titular two, mostly, and their boss, the rest were ok, but seriously, Wolf and whatshername made me viscerally angry. Whatshername wasn't quite as bad, mostly just kind of pathetic and ragey, but Wolf was a straight up murdering crooked cop. Yeah, crooked cops are not cool anti-heroes, as intended here, they are villains, period.
And I hated the painfully clichéd sexual tension unrequited love subplot between the two leads, a pretty young firecracker and a grizzled older guy with a dark past. Ew.
Ok, but other than that, it was a fun story. With a frustrating ending.
Yeah, the more I think about it, the less I like it. But I did like the crime enough to check out more, so there's that.

ok
