Publisher's Summary

From James Patterson, the world’s bestselling author, comes a new Audible Original thriller that will keep you guessing until the very end.

After the killing of a prominent mob lawyer, NYPD homicide detectives Jacob Jackson and Caitlin Grimes start receive chilling, written “rules” for how to commit the perfect murder. "Rule number one for the perfect murder: Evidence is your enemy. Leave none behind."

Jackson (Reid Scott) and Grimes (Cobie Smulders) race to find the killer, setting them on a collision course with the city’s crime underbelly, and a perpetrator who seems happy to toy with them. “Rule number two. No crimes of passion. The perfect murder is always business, never pleasure.”

As the cryptic notes keep coming and the body count grows, the detectives must untangle the mystery to protect more innocent lives from being lost—including their own.

Please note: This audio drama is for mature audiences only. It contains violence and strong language. Discretion is advised.

Great Performance, Lazy ending

Ending seemed like the easy way out. Very anticlimactic. The story was actually good if they would have finished it better. Performance & audio was good though

Shock ending

This was my first dynamic audiobook. I stayed in my car to listen to it, I couldn’t ’put it down’.

Completely improbable and unlikable

Hard to say more without spoiling but the ending was completely improbable. Way too much time for such little payoff.

Ok at best😵‍💫

I found this to be extremely elementary and empty. The simplicity of and a weak storyline or neither stimulating or interesting. I would definitely pass on this, it seems like this guy just has some sort of book mill and is writing these stories with others one after the other and don’t have any real identity anymore…

Awful

Terrible story which makes it hard to give a fair review of the performances when the material they have to work with is so bad

Awful narration / acting, ridiculous ending.

The acting was painful. There were a few points in the story that were engaging but it had the most unrealistic conclusion.
