About this listen

From Wall Street Journal bestselling author Melinda Leigh.

After corporate attorney Hannah Barrett tries - and fails - to stop a kidnapping in Vegas, she can’t shake the haunting image of the terrified young girl she couldn’t save. She tells herself that a visit to her hometown in Scarlet Falls could be a welcome distraction. But soon, Hannah realizes the kidnappers have all the info they need to track her every move. And when chilling e-mails about the victim appear in her inbox, it’s frighteningly clear what happened in Vegas has followed her home.

Eight months after a terrible family tragedy, Hannah turns to Detective Brody McNamara once again. Brody is eager to help, though he’s embroiled in the investigation of a brutal murder. But the closer they work together, the stronger their feelings grow...and the more they stand to lose when two seemingly unrelated, but equally deadly, cases collide.

Minutes to Kill is the pulse-racing second novel in bestselling author Melinda Leigh’s Scarlet Falls series.

Great read

This was a really good story well presented with just one small criticism:

Escape from some of the life threatening tight situations seemed just a little bit easy and comfortable. There was never the underlying thought that things could ever go horribly wrong.

I actually grew to admire the two main characters Hannah and Brodie and the two bad guys were portrayed as totally evil and violent even if some of their actions, thank goodness, weren't described in great detail.
definitely worth listening to for a mixture of criminal detective work, corporate corruption and romance.

A thoroughly good listen/read

the narrator fitted the story well and apart from a couple of fortuitous escapes, the story was reasonably believable.

not bad at all

Would you listen to Minutes to Kill again? Why?

yes i would, i thought it was a really good book and the suspense kept me hooked even though you knew who the killer was from the beginning.

What did you like best about this story?

Liked the way hannah and Broadies relationship developed. i love the romance in the book but i am glad it mainly focuses on the suspence par of it and the crime itself.

Have you listened to any of Cris Dukehart’s other performances? How does this one compare?

i listened to her read the first book in this series. however before this series i don't believe i've listened to anything read by her before. she is a good narater and gives the characters there own voices.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

bit of both in parts because of the way the girls were treated.

Any additional comments?

fantastic and looking forward to stella and mac's stor coming up in book three.

great book
