About this audiobook
An addictive debut thriller starring a FBI consultant with a peculiar taste for crime and punishment…
A boy vanishes on his way home from school. His frantic mother receives a ransom call: pay or else. It’s only hours before the deadline, and the police have no leads. Enter Timothy Blake, an FBI consultant with a knack for solving impossible cases but whose expertise comes at a price. Every time he saves a life, he takes one, trying to satisfy an urge he fears he can only control for so long.
And this time Blake may have met his match. The kidnapper is more cunning and ruthless than any he’s faced before. And he’s been assigned a new partner within the Bureau: a woman linked to the past he’s so desperate to forget. Because he has a secret, one so dark he will do anything to keep it hidden.
For fans of Dexter and Hannibal, Hangman introduces a darkly mesmerizing character whose skill at finding criminals comes from a knowledge that can only be learned firsthand.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The writer does an amazing job of making the main character someone you feel for and relate to while also showing you the terribleness of his true nature. The reader does an excellent job as well.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I loved the book. I know there is a second one so probably will try to look for it soon. Scary Tim was awesome. For some reason could not stop cheering for him during the very bad situations he got himself into constantly due to his peculiar and creepy eating habits. I think the characters felt in a way realistic and multidimensional. Loved the riddles at the beggining of each chapter. Could not stop listening this book !!!!
