Kill for Me by Tom Wood
5.0
Kill for Me is the 8th Victor the Assassin book by Tom Wood. While I love a series where you can dig in and events continue to unfold and build on each other – this was a bit of a departure from that with completely new locations and characters. I still enjoyed it as much as I’ve enjoyed all the others. This book ties with No Tomorrow as my favorite of the series.
The premise seems simple, kill the sister. As with all of Victor’s jobs, nothing is as it seems and no one can be trusted. Two warring cartel factions leave a spider web of duplicity to navigate. Even those who hired him are hiding information. Another assassin on the scene complicates things even further.
I love the way Wood brings all these tiny stories and events together. Individually all intriguing and suspenseful but culminating into a fast paced and unpredictable ending. Victor remains an enigma that acts in surprising ways while still so very him.
The only problem with this book is that now I desperately want to listen to book 9, A Quiet Man… alas the audio isn’t available yet.
Narration:
Rob Shapiro continues to give Victor a consistent sound and personality that has made these audios so easy to binge. He also does a fantastic job with all the accents and a delivery so seamless that I’m completely absorbed in the story. He continues to be one of my favorite narrators.
