Publisher's summary

From the author of the Amazon Top 100 best-selling Kate Reid series, comes the second installment, Law of Five.

"A gripping, psychological mystery" - D. Donovan, Midwest Book Review

The nationwide manhunt for a killer begins and the media quickly dubs him the "Highway Hunter". Bodies left roadside on display with horrific markings; a calling card. But this case is miles away from Katie Reid and her life with Detective Marshall Avery.

That is, until she gets the call from her old friend and reporter Marc Aguilar, who believes that the killer could be coming their way.

With Katie's work at the San Diego Police Department and her recent personal struggles, questions are raised about the future. She resists the urge to consider Marc's request, knowing Marshall will insist that this isn't their fight.

However, when an acquaintance is suspected of a murder all-too-similar to that of the so-called Highway Hunter, a dark shadow is cast upon the city. Now, the investigation is dropped at the doorstep of the SDPD, and so is Katie's friend, FBI Agent Nick Scarborough.

With growing evidence suggesting there could be more than one killer, four lives have already been taken. Who will be number five?

Kate Reid

I have found a new favorite character in Kate Reid. I need to get to the next book in the series. The ending wasn't what I expected, but it made me want the next book as soon as possible.

The narration was the best of any I have listened to so far. Lisa Kelly's pacing was perfection. The pauses were exactly what was needed in every case.

Nope.

The narrator ruined it. Her flat delivery made it hard to listen to.
Blah blah blah.

Sigh...

This was such a good story. It is just a shame that the narrator used no inflection and missed pronounced several words. You had to listen closely to figure out which character was speaking.
We would read more about Kate, but it definitely won’t be through audible if the book has the same narrator.

Good story

I like the book, the story line is good but needs a different narrator. The one that does the narration for this book just reads it in a monotone with no differences in her voice for the characters.

Just okay

The 2nd book in the series, keeps referencing events in book 1 but doesn't even bother to provide a summary of what happened. It leaves the reader wondering what they are talking about but not enough to want to read book 1.

Great read

I am a disabled woman with a great deal of time. I love reading books. This is a fantastic read. I unfortunately bought book two so now when I get paid I'll be sure to buy the first book and the third to finish the trophy. Keep writing this series please. It's delightful as and old friend.
