About this audiobook
"“A MASTERPIECE OF THRILLER AND MYSTERY. Blake Pierce did a magnificent job developing characters with a psychological side so well described that we feel inside their minds, follow their fears and cheer for their success. Full of twists, this book will keep you awake until the turn of the last page.”
--Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos (re Once Gone)
FACE OF DEATH is book #1 in a new FBI thriller series by USA Today bestselling author Blake Pierce, whose #1 bestseller Once Gone (Book #1) (a free download) has received over 1,000 five star reviews.
FBI Special Agent Zoe Prime suffers from a rare condition which also gives her a unique talent—she views the world through a lens of numbers. The numbers torment her, make her unable to relate to people, and give her a failed romantic life—yet they also allow her to see patterns that no other FBI agent can see. Zoe keeps her condition a secret, ashamed, in fear her colleagues may find out.
Yet when a serial killer strikes across the Midwest, strangling women in remote places and seemingly at random, Zoe, for the first time, is stumped. Is there a pattern? Can there be no pattern at all?
Or is this killer as obsessed with numbers as she is?
In a mad race against time, Zoe must enter the diabolical mind of a killer who always seems to be one step ahead of her, and stop him from claiming his next victim before it’s too late. At the same time, she must keep at bay her own demons, which may ultimately prove to be even more threatening.
An action-packed thriller with heart-pounding suspense, FACE OF DEATH is book #1 in a riveting new series that will leave you turning pages late into the night.
Books #2 and #3 in the series—FACE OF MURDER and FACE OF FEAR—are also available for pre-order.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Excellent introduction to a complicated women & FBI special agent.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I almost hastily left this in the beginning. It seemed a bit slow for the first little bit. I'm glad I stayed with it. You just have to get that sense of loneliness and wounds Zoey had to bear for so long by herself. She was always made to believe her gift wasn't something she could share and that people wouldn't understand her. It made relationships impossible. The friendship that blossomed between her and her partner was heartwarming. It took one person to let her know that not all people would shun her, and there was no shame in her gift. In fact, her partner saw it as what it was... a gift, a talent. It's a really great story that makes you think and feel in every direction. I'm going on to the 2nd.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Excellent and interesting good book. Looking forward to the next book
