I listened to this book on audiobook which dramatically improved my rating for this book. Ordinarily, I think these crime series are pretty formulaic and once you've read one, you have pretty much read them all. The performance for this book was so well done that it elevated the story. The story is what you might expect: Jack is a older, non nonsense female cop. She gets on the trail of a serial killer and begins to question everything about her career choice in the process.

There were dual narrators in Jack and the perp she was after, and the voices for the other characters were so distinct. I'm not sure if I'll tune into another one, simply because these books do become so routine, but listening to this one on the way to work over the course of a week was a good use of my time.
