À propos de cet audio
FROM THE #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE HARRY BOSCH AND LINCOLN LAWYER SERIES
An electrifying standalone thriller that breaks all the rules!
Death is reporter Jack McEvoy's beat: his calling, his obsession. But this time, death brings McEvoy the story he never wanted to write - and the mystery he desperately needs to solve. A serial killer of unprecedented savagery and cunning is at large. His targets: homicide cops, each haunted by a murder case he couldn't crack. The killer's calling card: a quotation from the works of Edgar Allan Poe. His latest victim is McEvoy's own brother. And his last...may be McEvoy himself.

But when Graciella tells him the way her sister, Gloria, was murdered, Terry realizes he has no choice. Now the man with the new heart vows to take down a predator without a soul. For Gloria's killer shatters every rule that McCaleb ever learned in his years with the Bureau-as McCaleb gets no more second chances at life...and just one shot at the truth.

Leigh Collier has worked hard to build what looks like a normal life. She has a good job as a defense attorney, a daughter doing well in school, and even her divorce is relatively civilized - her life is just as unremarkable as she’d always hoped it would be. But Leigh’s ordinary life masks a childhood that was far from average...a childhood tarnished by secrets, broken by betrayal, and finally torn apart by a devastating act of violence.

Good book
Un problème est survenu. Veuillez réessayer dans quelques minutes.
Connelly's protagonist (Denver Investigative Reporter Jack McEvoy) uses his press credentials and connections with law enforcement to get the lowdown on a series of vicious crimes - in this book, a cop-killer who makes the murders look like suicides, but leaves Edgar Allen Poe quotes at the scenes. It's a bizarre M.O.
Yes, the "intrepid reporter" trope has been done before, but Connelly is quite good at it.. and his interpretation of the Newsroom has a couple of novel features - he's critical but not brutal towards the clickbait media, for example.
In addition, the characters are interesting (sometimes helpful; often hostile), the dialogue is realistic (albeit occasionally implausible), and the plot is sinuous (plenty of twists & turns).
In general, 'The Poet' is well-planned, gritty and well-written.
Unfortunately, Buck Schirner's narration lets the story down somewhat. His diction, timbre, cadence, and tone are creditable, but he reads far too slowly (listen at 1.20X for the optimal experience) and his voice-acting sounds like he's trying to portray a "central-casting" interpretation of the dramatis personae.. Hollywood Stereotypes overwhelm the performance.
This moderately unoriginal book is definitely still worth a download for fans of fast-paced Crime Fiction. It was a free offering as a monthly 'Editor's Pick', but I rate it 9 stars out of 10. You would be justified to spend a Credit on it.
[I personally won't be continuing in the 'Jack McEvoy' series but can suggest that you give this audiobook a try - it's a fine way to spend a couple of afternoons (and who knows.. it might grab you).]
A Little Formulaic..
