Dead Man's List

By: Karen Rose

Narrated by: Hillary Huber

Homicide Detective Kit McKittrick's latest case exposes the dark side of San Diego’s high society in this nerve-shattering tale of romantic suspense from New York Times bestselling author Karen Rose.

On a long-anticipated second date with police psychologist Dr. Sam Reeves—right as things are getting steamy—Kit stumbles across the mutilated body of a local San Diego politician. The man was loved by many of his constituents but is hated and reviled by many more. That the suspect list is long surprises no one, but exactly who ends up on it stuns Kit and her team.

As the SDPD reveal the victim’s sinister dealings, Kit and Sam are forced to navigate the closely guarded world of the city’s richest and most powerful citizens to find answers. But time is rapidly running out, with their sources of information dropping like flies as the killer methodically eliminates loose ends—and anyone else who stands in the way.

I love how they do such a good job in details in solving the cases

I hate that kit and Sam’s relationship is moving along so slowly Sam is amazing and I really hope that their relationship finally gets to go to the next level in the next book

Wonderful, Gripping Story

The book had me on edge of my seat most of the time! I really like all the characters especially Kit, Sam, Conner and Navarro!

good story

Enjoyed that I didn't figure out halfway through who the guilty party was like a lot of mysteries

Kit and Sam and the slow building of a relationship

I love the family feeling of Kit's working and foster families. Connor makes a good partner as well.

Couldn't finish

3 hours into this audiobook I had to stop. I found it agonizingly slow with a lot of unnecessary dialogue. The romance between Kit and Sam reminded me of Middle school. I don't get why it's rated 4.8 stars.
