I don’t know how to write a review on this. It’s weirdly offensive and compelling at the same time. Way too long (20 hours!), yet I listened to it all and can’t pinpoint what to cut out other than 70% of John Corey’s banter. I’m not against long audios - I have many, many that are this length that I loved every minute of. This was not it. I liked the “bones” of the plot and murder investigation. Unfortunately the pacing was hindered by weird conversations and actions that didn’t help the story move forward.
Even the ending felt meh and slightly anticlimactic.
Just looking at the length of book 2 (24 hours) has me dropping the series here.
This review is much more articulate than mine:

Narration:
I’m pretty sure Scott Brick is the reason I finished this.

This was one of the funniest mcs I have ever come across! The dry dad humor killed me every time. I listened to this on audiobook as Scott Brick is my absolute FAVORITE narrator of all time. It can certainly be read as a one shot stand alone but the series looks like it features the MC through all of them. Fell in love with John Corey, can't wait to read more with him!

Thriller surrounding the mysterious deaths of two scientists who work on Plum Island - a government facility specializing in exotic viruses. Great main character and surprising twists.

I enjoyed this book, but at times it just seemed too long.
