About this audiobook
What the killer did not know is that a copy of the photograph still remains. When it falls into Thorn's hands, he and everyone close to him-including his beloved Alexandra-become the targets of madmen and trained hitmen, each of whom has a powerful motive to see the photograph destroyed...and each of whom will go to murderous lengths to make it disappear forever.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5In this thriller Hall weaves some Miami history, both real and imagined, into a present day crime and murder spree that entangles his recurring character, Thorn. Intricately plotted and featuring another unique murder weapon, some of the scenes involving secondary characters are the most compelling. The writing in the passages with Thorn and Alexandra doesn't glisten as it does in the rest of the book, as if the relationship is, or should be, approaching its end.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Nothing too heavy.. but fine, well constructed, escapist literature. Ninth in the Thorn, P.I. series.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is one of those books about Thorn that you can't put down. Hall made me nostalgia for Miami and the Keys, as he has in the best earlier books around this character, and I likely would have read the book in one sitting if given the opportunity. If you like mysteries, south Florida, or suspense, I can't recommend these books enough, and this is right up at the top of the heap.
