About this audiobook
In New York Times bestselling author J.A. Jance’s timely thriller, Ali Reynolds faces her most controversial mystery yet: the murder of a man whose Ponzi scheme bankrupted hundreds of people, and left them seeking justice...or revenge.
When Ali’s parents lose their life savings to a Ponzi scheme, her father goes to confront his longtime friend and financial advisor, only to stumble upon the scene of a bloody double homicide. With her father suddenly a prime suspect, Ali and her husband work to clear his name and seek justice for her parents, as well as the rest of the scheme’s suddenly impoverished victims. But if Ali’s father is innocent, that can mean only one thing: one of the others is a stone cold killer.
Publishers Weekly promises “series fans will enjoy this highly personal case.” Provocative and gripping, Clawback is further proof that no one writes suspenseful thrillers quite like J.A. Jance.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Clawback by J. A Jance is a 2016 Touchstone publication. This eleventh installment in the Ali Reynolds series charged from the gate with a harrowing situation involving Ali’s father, Bob, who discovers a double homicide and is arrested for the crime. But, what is really bothering Bob isn’t his trouble with law enforcement, it’s the Ponzi scheme that has cost him and his wife their life savings that has him feeling heartsick. Can Ali track down the real killers and recover some of her parent’s money in the process?Because I’ve come to know these characters I really felt sorry for Ali’s parents, Bob in particular, who really came down on himself pretty hard. I could feel his age creeping up on him as he carried a tremendous weight on his shoulders. Ponzi schemes are such a personal affront, and is one of the worst kind of selfish crimes, which hurts everyone, but really hits the elderly hardest, since they are often forced back into the work force at a time when they should be enjoying retirement without financial worries. But, Edie is still a hoot, though, and supports Bob from start to finish only complaining when he drove her car. The mystery is not all that much of a mystery, since it is obvious who the killer is, but it is the suspense comes from Ali’s search for the truth and her hope of recovering her parent’s hard earned money, thus putting herself and perhaps others in danger. I enjoyed the complexities and details in this story, especially the technical parts, which gave my brain a little something to chew on, but there is no shortage of action. This story gave all the characters a chance to shine, although B. seemed a little left out of the loop in this one and he and Ali didn’t have their usual chemistry. Still, this a fast paced addition to this beloved series, and drew me in a little closer to the characters and gave me a new insight into Bob and Edie’s life, and a chance to get better acquainted with some of the other characters, especially Cami, who steals the show a little bit. Overall, I highly recommend this one to fans of the series. I don’t think you will be disappointed. 4 stars
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Ali Reynolds returns, this time in an investigation involving her parents and an investment scheme that has defrauded them out of their hard-earned retirement money. An admitted confrontation leads to her father becoming the prime suspect in the murder of their financial advisor and leaves Ali and B working to clear his name as they seek justice for all the victims of the investment scheme. But Ali has yet to discover that one of them is a killer . . . . With the fast-paced action and a plot as timely as today’s headlines, readers will find much to appreciate in this tale. Well-drawn characters and inventive twists that ramp up the action will keep readers on the edge of their chairs until the final page.Highly recommended.
