About this listen
“An absolutely first-rate thriller.”—New York Times Book Review
Seattle PD sex-crimes detective Livia Lone knows the monsters she hunts. Sold by her Thai parents along with her little sister, Nason; abused by the men who trafficked them; marooned in America...the only thing that kept Livia alive as a teenager was her determination to find Nason.
Livia has never stopped looking. And she copes with her failure to protect her sister by doing everything she can to put predators in prison.
Or, when that fails, by putting them in the ground.
But when a fresh lead offers new hope of finding Nason and the men who trafficked them both, Livia will have to go beyond just being a cop. Beyond even being a vigilante. She’ll have to relive the horrors of the past. Take on one of the most powerful men in the US government. And uncover a conspiracy of almost unimaginable evil.
In every way, it’s an unfair fight. But Livia has two advantages: her unending love for Nason—
And a lifelong lust for vengeance.

"Author Barry Eisler narrates his own work with the skill of a professional voice actor.... He never strains credulity as Livia transitions from child victim to confident woman and avenging angel for the abused. Livia's male abusers—especially her stepfather—practically hiss with vileness, like coiled snakes. When young Livia learns jujutsu and starts fighting back, listeners will share her visceral catharsis and newfound empowerment." (AudioFile)

Just brilliant
Brilliant author and narrator - stepping up his writing to tackle big social issues. The action is still fantastic though!

Few redeeming features
Having enjoyed my first John Rain Book I thought I would try this. Spoiler alert: I struggled to finish this novel which repeatedly visited child sexual abuse in detail, including sexual violence. Plus a highly damaged abused central figure who is drawn to sexual violence. Not sure what the message is there. Repetitive, drawn out, with a disappointing plot with little nuance and needless questionable descriptions of an appalling subject. Was this supposed to be an enjoyable read?
