The Lightning Rod

The DI Jimmy Bliss Crime Series, Book 10

By: Tony J. Forder

Narrated by: Greg Wagland

DI Bliss attends the aftermath of an apparent murder-suicide—but the scene tells him and his colleagues something very different occurred. Now the Peterborough Major Crimes Unit face an adversary like no other.

They have no idea why his victims had to die. They have no idea who he is. They have no idea where he might strike next—only that he will.

But while the killer is cunning, leaving no evidence for them to find, his biggest mistake might be in underestimating the team now hunting him. Because when Jimmy Bliss is on the case, all bets are off.

Excellent

An excellent story ! Could not put it down listened to it till end. Enjoyed new the new character Frank Rogers(?). Narrator voice and inflection perfect!

Very complex

It seems to me that a family anilihation dressed up to look like a murder-suicide is a bit extreme for an organized crime hit. For one thing, it draws a lot of attention, something most crime syndicates wouldn't want. And then to do it twice, well ... Usually, it's pop-pop, two in the head and the body disappears. But that's not the case here. Which makes the whole premise hard to swallow. But the criminal this case has Jimmy on his toes with the usual race to save the victim at the end.

Character development

Love Detective Bliss and DI Penny story original great character development very graphic but not gross
