Reviews

[Simon · Rating 2 out of 5]

I've since learned through mild research that these books; these authors; even the audiobooks; all of it is AI generated. So with that knowledge understood, I relaxed a little and now just amuse myself with what AI can do and where it can take us. Since it isn't going anywhere and will only improve, I am along for the ride to see what kind of entertainment a computer can provide me, even if it is all ridiculous and outrageous when it comes up against things like the human brain and the way humans use and deduce with Logic and facts and experience.

I enjoyed this novel at the bare minimum, enough to read the rest of them. I am entertained perhaps by how poor the writing is. The mystery and the crime fighting is good, but this is just sad writing; it got published though so there is that accomplishment going for it.

These books feel as though the author wrote about crime proceedings and protocol by her own imaginations of what it is supposed to be like. There is a glaring lack of research into how things are actually done; the phraseology was abysmal. The dialogue that occurs between law-enforcement and civilians was appalling; there was no professionalism, no tact, and a huge infringement on the delicate nature of active investigations. I fail to recall at any time the phrase "person of interest" being used, and instead the author always jumps right to "suspect" or "killer". It was ridiculous. Caitlin Dare should not be an FBI agent.

She does seem to lack the understanding of rules and is much happier to go about making her own as she goes along. The only reason things work out in the end is by the author's own direction to make it so. It's infuriating.

Another gripe I have with these books is that the main antagonist; yes the "Killer", all seem to be having gone through some psychotic break, in order to justify killing their victims, many of whom are women who find themselves on their own. If the story had women teaming up all the time, then there wouldn't be any plot; which may have been a good thing as to not allow these dull killings to take place.

Now perhaps if there was a way for the "killer" to take down two victims at once, that would be interesting and up the stakes for our heros to crack the case as soon as possible!

My final grievance with these stories is that we really don't get much resolution after the capture of the bad guy, and it is so much more satisfying to be able to know what happens. Readers are committing themselves this far into the book, the author may as well grant readers that satisfaction of a well wrapped up case. I digress, I don't feel like this author has the wherewithal to concoct a satisfying ending, as there isn't a lot of effort put into the research of these books in the first place.

These kinds of crime-solving stories are what separate the amateurs from the professionals.

It seems I am going through a year of AI Generated Mystery Female Crime Solving Thrillers thanks to the recommends of my Hoopla account attached to my library.

Get Ready For More Slow Burn Between Caitlin and Nathan as They Deal with More Crime

In
Come Catch Me

Caitlin Dare and Nathan are back solving another railway related crime.
This time a body has been found in a freight train.

In a beautifully made, air tight, pine box.

Judging by the scratch marks on the lid and the victims bloody nails, he was very much alive before being placed there.

As Caitlin and Nathan begin there search for links, they are confronted by hostile local police, and freight management.

This situation isn’t helped any when another rail employee is snatched, basically shutting down the network while the trains are searched.


As Caitlin and Nathan are lead down dead ends, in their desperate search for the victim, the tension builds as he is literally running out of air.


As crime scenes go, who knew that the railways would provide such a plethora of untapped cases.
This book like the other Molly Black novels are very easy to read.

He has a gift with the fast paced narrative.

The words jump off the page as the action increases.

Of course we still have the back story of Caitlin’s missing, for ten years, sister Elle
AND!

The slow, slow burn growing attraction between the once warring partners, Nathan Bridges and Caitlin Dare.

So.
As the story winds down, and another case is resolved, Caitlin gets a very unexpected call from the last person she expected to hear from…
Uncle Josh.
Leaving this story on a ( sort of ) cliffhanger.

Four stars

[Jonathan · Rating 4 out of 5]

I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review. The author changed a few things up with this book. The way they were murdered. I wont go into detail as i dont want to spoil anything. It may seem a small thing to change. But if the author continues with this series she/he may continue to need to change things up. Or it will get stale very quickly. Its another race against time book which will keep you hooked.

The Railway Task Force is tasked with catching a cross border killer. The two Canadian agents they are paired with resent the American pair. Once they settle their differences things go much smoother. The killer plays a kindle old man who draws in his young female targets. Caitlin and the other female agent dress up to play decoy and are successful in capturing their killer. Both teams operating under extreme pressure from higher ups trying to justify the expenses involved.

[Catherine Tabor · Rating 2 out of 5]

Interesting but the audiobook narrator is British or something and the book takes place in the US. Four books into the series and I just cannot deal with it any more. The plot of this one wasn’t interesting enough to make me forget about the accent.

[Carol · Rating 4 out of 5]

This series is barely a 4 star read, I've just bonded with the characters. And this one my take away is: Why do some people think that taking people's lives will replace the life of someone they love who has died? It doesn't work that way at all.

[Elle Mick · Rating 1 out of 5]

The audiobook is narrated by AI with a British accent. Overall quality of book and audio narration would make me tell someone to throw this book in the trash, literally or figuratively.

0/10 on AI narrators.

[Barbara Smachetti · Rating 5 out of 5]

really good!

I liked the tension. I also liked the fact that Caitlin and Nathan are getting closer. Looking forward to other books.

[Fearless · Rating 4 out of 5]

Employees, boxes, daughter.

🎧 My least favourite book in the series so far. There happened so much in a short amount of time. But the plot was great!
