Read by Patrick G. Lawlor
“If you have never read Michael McGarrity, then do yourselves a favor and read Everyone Dies.”
Harlan Coben
Michael McGarrity, a former deputy sheriff, brings an insider’s perspective to this dynamic, character-driven story, a hard-hitting blend of police procedural and edge-of-your seat thriller. Santa Fe police chief Kevin Kerney has big plans for his vacation, but everything goes on hold when his friend, a prominent gay attorney, is murdered. The shocking crime is just the beginning, though. Next, the horse Kerney trained and cared for is viciously slaughtered, a former colleague is found murdered, and someone delivers poisoned rats to Kerney’s home along with a horrifying note explaining that the killer’s real target is Kerney himself. But, the note says, the chief must suffer before Everyone Dies….
Santa Fe Police Chief Kevin Kerney and his wife, Lieutenant Colonel Sara Brannon, are on leave and eagerly awaiting the birth of their son when a prominent gay attorney is gunned down outside his office by an unknown assailant. Called to the crime scene and faced with scanty evidence and no apparent motive, Kerney directs his chief of detectives to delve into the victim’s personal and professional life, a decision that ultimately leads to a SWAT team screw-up and the death of two innocent people.
But the killer has just begun. Kerney’s horse, a mustang he’d gentled and trained, is viciously and senselessly destroyed; a dead rabbit is left on his doorstep; and a second victim with ties to the criminal justice system is found in her bed with her throat cut along with the warning: Everyone Dies.
As a time of joy turns into a nightmare, Kerney and Sara search desperately for a seemingly unstoppable chameleon like killer who promises to murder them and their unborn son.
