The Last Sinner

A Rick Bentz/Reuben Montoya Novel, Book 9

By: Lisa Jackson

Narrated by: Natalie Ross

Lisa Jackson’s New York Times bestselling series featuring New Orleans homicide detectives Rick Bentz and Reuben Montoya began with a strangled prostitute in a seedy French Quarter hotel room and a demented killer disguised as a priest. Now evil comes full circle, as Father John returns to terrorize The Big Easy in this highly anticipated series finale!

There are killers so savage, so twisted, that they leave a mark not just on their victims, but on everyone who crosses their path. For Detectives Bentz and Montoya, Father John, a fake priest who used the sharpened beads of a rosary to strangle prostitutes, is one such monster.

Bentz thought he’d ended that horror years ago when he killed Father John deep in the swamp. But now there are chilling signs he may have been wrong. A new victim has surfaced, her ruined body staged in deliberate, unmistakable detail. Either it’s a terrifying copycat, or Father John, the detective’s own recurring nightmare, has come back to haunt New Orleans.

Another death, and another. Bentz is growing convinced that Father John isn’t just back. He’s circling closer, targeting those Bentz loves most.

And this time, he won’t be stopped until the last sinner has paid the ultimate price . . .

Ridiculous victims

Female victims constantly running alone into obviously dangerous situations. Not even a little bit believable.

I love the story took place in NOLA

Overall engaging however I found the female roles too gullible when they knew they were being stalked.

Very exciting. Couldn’t stop listening!

From beginning to end, kept me listening. Loved it.I will be looking for moreLisa Jackson books.

Love the characters!

Really hoping there is a spin off with Kristie and Cruz. Love the characters! Even the fishermen in the bayou. The author makes the suspects interesting and the story plays out well. Good suspense. Enjoy her writing. The performance was very good!

Closure

Lisa Jackson has written an excellent conclusion to her previous Father John story. Murder is personal this time. Along with another murder committed by Father Joh, or was it someone else? Tense and twisted. A thoroughly enjoyable book.
