Before He Covets

A Mackenzie White Mystery, Book 3

By: Blake Pierce

Narrated by: Elaine Wise

From Blake Pierce, best-selling author of Once Gone (a number one best seller with over 600 five-star reviews), comes book three in the heart-pounding Mackenzie White mystery series.

In Before He Covets, newly minted FBI agent Mackenzie White graduates the FBI Academy in Quantico only to find herself thrown into an urgent serial killer case. Women are turning up dead while camping in a remote national park in West Virginia. Yet the park is vast, and no connection can be found between them.

At the same time, Mackenzie receives a call from Nebraska urging her to come home. After many years, a new clue has surfaced about her father's murder. The case no longer cold, Mackenzie desperately needs to help solve it.

But the FBI's killer is ratcheting up, and there is no time for distraction as more women turn up missing in the psychological game of cat-and-mouse that follows. This killer is more diabolical - and smarter - than Mackenzie could have imagined. As she goes down a road she fears to travel - deep into her own psyche - she finds a double twist waiting for her that even she could not expect.

A dark psychological thriller with heart-pounding suspense, Before He Covets is book three in a riveting new series - with a beloved new character - that will leave you listening late into the night.

Narrator

I liked the storyline very much but the narrator detracted so much from the story. She had a very pleasant voice but seemed to have only two different character voices. I found the discrepancy between her narration and the action in the story to be very distracting to the point that I fastforwarded through some of the paragraphs. I meant to rate the overall only a 3 but my stylus stuck. For these reasons I would not recommend this book and I probably will not read any more of the series.
