"Real" Crime Story
Realism is the keyword to describe this tale of 2 opposing ideologies and protagonists in this murder mystery. Told in those 2 first-person accounts, you really get to know each character's background and how they think. A good cop and a bad guy each have their merits and faults, again with the realism... It's obvious the author has police/detective experience as that comes through in spades. Highly recommended.

There's two ways to catch a murderer.
I really enjoyed this plot of the dual investigation of these murders. A cop and a vigilante father. Very violent. Very well written. Interesting characters. Who will find the killer first? Will they collide or work together? The vigilante is so violent and criminal. The cop using police tactics, etc. Quite the page turner!
I listened to Audible version of this book. The narrator has different voices for each character. Great help in keeping the characters separate while listening. A rough, creepy voice for the vigilante. Great job.
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
