Hand of Fate

Written by Lis Wiehl and April Henry

Narrated by Pam Turlow

When the host of a popular radio talk show is murdered, the suspects almost outnumber his millions of listeners. Outspoken radio talk show host Jim Fate dies tragically when poisonous gas fills the studio while his polarizing show, "The Hand of Fate," is on air. In the ensuing panic, police evacuate downtown Portland - and the triple threat of FBI Special Agent Nicole Hedges, crime reporter Cassidy Shaw, and Federal Prosecutor Allison Pierce begin piecing together the madness, motive, and mystery of what just happened. And this time, it's personal since one of the women was secretly dating the host and has access to his home…as well as possible evidence. In the days following Fate's murder, these three colleagues and friends confront a betrayal within the team while unearthing the not-so-public life of Jim Fate. Together, they must uncover the stunning truths of who killed him, how close the killer really is, and the twisted motive for this cold-blooded murder.

Reviews for Hand of Fate

[tanya2009_1 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

A radio talk show host is murdered and the Triple Threat Club is on the case. Great murder mystery starring three great women characters. This is the second book in a trilogy. I enjoyed this one much more than the first.

[mnleona · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Jim Fate is the murdered character in the novel; he was a radio talk show host for the Hand of Fate and one to speak his mind. Jim Fate dies a quick but painful death when a gas is released after he opens an envelope; he dies in his booth as he is warning others to leave the studio to save themselves. Mystery and suspense begin with the search for the person or persons who killed Jim Fate and why.The mystery has three main characters, who have known each other since college: Nicole Hedges, a Special Agent for the FBI, Crime Reporter Cassidy Shaw and Federal Prosecutor Allison Pierce. The three were in a previous novel by Lis Wiehl, Face of Betrayal and are known as The Triple Threat. They work together in the cases and each has a role as well as a personal story of their ownThis is a fast moving mystery; it is hard to review without giving away some important facts as there are so many stories within the story. It is a page turner and like Agatha Christie, you are always trying to wonder "who dunnit". I found it a very emotional book as the reader gets to know Nicole, Cassidy and Allison and their feelings. There are issues such as domestic violence, immigration, fear of terrorism, drugs, politics and more in the book. The author does a good job keeping the reader involved with the story and the characters. She uses her knowledge and experience as a lawyer for many descriptions and detailsI received a complimentary copy from Thomas Nelson Publishers to read and review. The opinions are my own.
