Not an audiobook for the faint of heart, this taut detective thriller is replete with explicit sexual dialogue. To her credit, narrator Christina Delaine does not flinch from the frequent descriptions of the sexual adventures of Valerie Hart, a police detective who is assigned to investigate the brutal murder of a prosecutor. Delaine masterfully delivers the charged dialogue, telling the story of a broken woman who is waging an inner war against her unsavory past and her urges. It doesn’t help that the murdered victim, Adam Grant, was a former lover. Saul Black’s skill as a writer keeps the listener guessing. The gritty realism in this work removes any glamour from the world of a homicide detective. M.S. © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine
"Hard as nails detective novel, satisfyingly twisted story, and the writing is sharp as the devil." -- Stephen King
Critically acclaimed author Saul Black returns with a heart-racing thriller in which a brutal murder forces one woman to reckon with her own past-and her future.
On a hot summer night, a watchful neighbor locks eyes with an intruder and unwittingly alerts the police to a vicious crime scene next door: a lavish master bedroom where a man lies dead. Next to him, his wife is bleeding out onto the hardwood floor, clinging to life.
The victim, Adam Grant, was a well-known San Francisco prosecutor-a man whose connection to Homicide detective Valerie Hart brings her face-to-face with a life she's long since left behind. Adam's career made him an easy target, and forensic evidence points towards an ex-con he put behind bars years ago. But while Adam's wife and daughter grapple with their tragic loss, Valerie uncovers devastating clues that point in a more ominous direction. Lurking in the shadows of the Grants' pristine life is a mysterious blonde who holds the key to a very different-and much darker-story.
As Valerie struggles to forge a new path for herself, the investigation forces her to confront the question: can we ever really leave our pasts behind?
Sophisticated and stunning, Anything for You is an unforgettable thriller that will grip readers long after turning the last page.
