Here Gretchen is still on the loose and Archie is still hospitalized after his ploy to catch her went spectacularly wrong. They've entered a detente of sorts: Archie agrees not to kill himself if she agrees not to kill anyone else. But suddenly there's something else to contend with that might be worse - a zealous fan of Gretchen's, paying homage to the Beauty Killer by luring Archie and reporter Susan Ward to the scene of a grisly murder. At least they hope it's the work of someone new, for the prospect of Gretchen breaking her promise is more than Archie can bear.

Reseñas de la Crítica
"We've been down Hannibal Lecter Avenue many times, and these two books shouldn't work . . . but they do. Chalk it up to excellent writing and Cain's ferocious sense of humor. The Portland [Oregon] setting is refreshing too." (Stephen King)

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes the story isn't horrible and still kept my interest. I just don't think it stacks up to the first bookWould you recommend Evil at Heart to your friends? Why or why not?
Yes. I plan on listening to the rest of the series. I enjoy the characters and want to see where they all end upWhich character – as performed by Carolyn McCormick – was your favorite?
I love her Gretchen voice. I know the author has described Gretchen and I know she isn't a middle aged woman but in my mind she is. Almost like a Meryl Streep type persona. The voice Carolyn uses is the best.If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Beauty.... Killing is not only skin deepAny additional comments?
Thank you for presenting a interesting series of books.Series Is Weakening

Evil at Heart follows the story arc of Gretchen and Archie-serial killer vs. typical broken down cop who isn't a drunk, but is a junkie on vicodin. This third novel in the series is yet another average rendition of a frequently written story arc. It's not bad but it's not really good either.
I purchased all 3 books when there was a sale at audible (buy 2 get 3) looking for a new author and charmed by the idea that the scene is set in Portland, OR----my hometown.
The plot isn't a bad one and the writing has some good points but I guess my hope the Cain's writing might improve as the novels progressed hasn't come to fruition, in my opinion. All 3 novels have come strongly in the average department...not bad, not good-just average. Each with the mandatory kinky sex scene, which is well written, and the increasing deterioration of Archie's mind as Gretchen gains more and more control over him.
I've noticed lately that more audio books have begun inserting musical interludes between chapters. For some reason the producers find this attractive, but as a reader/listener I find it irritating. All 3 of Cain's books had this aggravating addition to the novel as well as the addition of weird piano and string interludes during the reading of an exciting portion of the plot.
It sounds just like 1940 radio shows I used to listen to as a kid-or like the Twilight Zone on early TV to bring the analogy closer to modern day. One chapter, 42 I think, where there was supposed to be a suspenseful part in the story arc, the music played all thru the chapter....and it overwhelmed the reading at times-the music didn't add anything and really took away from the performance. And it drove me a bit batty with the irritating increase in volume.
Carolyn McCormick is a good narrator and I'd happily listen to her read other books.
Average novel with irritating music thru-out

This novel, like the previous two novels, had some great humor and I liked the characters. However, I think the humor was just a bit less than it has been. Still good, though. Obviously, these novels aren't comedy novels, but it's nice to break up the tension with a bit of humor from time to time.
Overall, I enjoyed this novel. I am looking forward to the next one.
Musical interludes not as bad

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
No, I found the character of Susan to be totally unbelievably naive.What do you think your next listen will be?
Listening to 11-22-63, but Stephen King right now.Have you listened to any of Carolyn McCormick’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I know the voice and I love it, but I can't place the books I've listened that she narratored.If this book were a movie would you go see it?
Maybe, there would have to be a total redo of Susan. Her stupidity drove me absolutely crazy and not in a good way.Any additional comments?
I will listen the third one, I'm a glutton for punishment, but kill the Sweetheart killer already. These characters can really stand on their own without her.A disappointment
