À propos de cet audio

Detective John Druitt is new to homicide. His first case is a young woman found in an urban bayou. He immediately sees clues that lead him places he doesn't want to go. But his own demons may be the clue to solving the mystery of the woman's death. And as the case widens, so do his new partner's suspicions about his past and motivations.

Buffalo Bayou is a dark, psychological thriller perfect for fans of Michael Connelly, Karin Slaughter, and James Patterson.

The narrator is great, a lot of suspense. More like a Dexter theme. Loved it!

Great story and plot

Good story. Didn’t think much of it at first but, it grew on me toward the last third of it. I think the author revealed the detective too soon in the plot. Should of held out a slight bit more.

Twist and turns

This book - written from the perspective of a Police Officer who is secretly a serial killer - describes a reasonably captivating Cat & Mouse game between a confused sociopath with a jawdropping home life and cartoonishly "professional" (almost willfully blind) law enforcement. Tom Abraham's vocabulary & prose is capable, his understanding of psychopathology is creditable, the plotting in this story is well-planned & well-delivered, and tension & suspense are palpable.
Less fortunately, the inner dialogue from the perpetrator is obviously unhinged - but Abraham's way of describing day-to-day life in Houston implies a seediness that almost makes his homicidal urges seem reasonable. Officer 'John Druitt' is witness to such horrors that he comes across as waaaay too sympathetic.

As to presentation: Audible Studios provides exemplary technical support to reader Jason Culp. Sound quality is impeccable (with seamless splicing of re-recorded segments, for example), and - while reading a little bit too slowly & with uninspired voice-acting - Culp delivers spot-on diction, timbre, and cadence.. as well as pitch-perfect tone.

Altogether, 'Buffalo Bayou' rates 7.5/10-stars. If you can get it as a 'Plus' selection (as I did), definitely spend the time on it. Should they ask for a Credit, however, less disturbing Mystery-Thriller options beckon.

Too Dark For Comfort

Story leads you through the twisted but very smart mind of a police detective. Excellent suspense and plot twists. Great performance.

Refreshing look into a criminal mind

I forced myself to keep listening just to see if it would ever get better. So predictable and completely unbelievable.
