About this listen

Nine years.

It has been almost a decade since Duluth said good-bye to its innocence. The city creeps ever closer to the 10th anniversary of the year in which it found itself both gripped by murder and united in terror and during which the pillar of its community, DS Jonathan Stride, had his home and heart torn to ribbons by the claws of cancer.

Nine lives.

Cat Mateo, an orphan with a knack for landing on her feet, has bid farewell to a life on the streets. This once-stray teenager owes her rescue to Detective Stride, the father figure she holds close to her heart. But Cat holds something else to her chest: a secret, the sheer power of which she could not possibly comprehend. A secret that, once out of the bag, will viciously scratch at Duluth's still-healing wounds. It will make Stride wave good-bye to his convictions and say hello to his darkest fears.

I highly recommend reading the series in order since it helps understand recollections made throughout by the characters. Although this book did jostle back and forth to the past, the transiting were necessary and it provided a unique opportunity to tie up loose ends.

So many plot twists

I am so pleased to have found this author and series. His stories are so well laid out. I try but never really see the plot fully until he wants me to. The performer is perfect - he could maybe do a better Serena but even that is debatable. You’ll love this book.

Each book leaves me asking for more

Kept me interested to keep listening to the characters to guess what the truth was. Never guessed correctly.

Great story, good characters

If I trusted reviews I might have passed by this series. Thankfully I’m a leader not a follower and I trust my own instincts and judgement. With that being said’ I love the Johnathan Strides series. I also love the way Joe Barrette performs each character and the voice he uses for the main character. Ok on to the next can’t wait

Well done

I have finished my binge listening of the Jonathan Stride series! Wow, what a ride! I am so looking forward to the next book! I listened to this book in 3 days because I couldn't bear to.put it down. However, I am disappointed that Stride was so cold and indifferent to Cindy when she wanted to talk to him on the beach about her cancer diagnosis. She didn't get to. I am left wondering how all of that was resolved and what happened when he found out. Maybe the next book will deal with that. I thought they were closer than that. Stride didn't sit well with me in this book as he seemed emotionally unavailable to me. Maggie needs some updating and not made to sound like an immature character. I don't care for the Cat character but maybe she will grow on me in later books. Otherwise, I loved this book!

Joe Barrett was outstanding with the delivery of the story

Another Good Installment To The Series

As a native Minnesotan I cringe at most attempts to do the accent. The usual mistake is overdoing it. I thought Joe Barrett must have been one of us-so subtle and understated were his Minnesota voices. Then, in search of more Joe Barrett, I discovered all the east coast, Italian,New York and mob voices in the Don Winslow books. I have deeply enjoyed them all. Joe Barrett, you can read to me all day!

Let me count the ways I love Joe Barrett.
