Title: Dear Killer

Author: Katherine Ewell

Narrator: Heather Wilds

Format: Unabridged

Length: 9 hrs and 17 mins

Language: English

Release date: 04-01-14

Publisher: HarperAudio

Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 27 votes

Genres: Teens, Mysteries & Thrillers

Publisher's Summary:

Rule One: Nothing is right, nothing is wrong.

Rule Two: Be careful.

Rule Three: Fight using your legs whenever possible, because theyre the strongest part of your body.

Rule Four: Hit to kill. The first blow should be the last, if at all possible.

Rule Five: The letters are the law.

Kit takes her role as Londons notorious "Perfect Killer" seriously. The letters and cash that come to her via a secret mailbox are not a game; choosing who to kill is not an impulse decision. Every letter she receives begins with "Dear Killer" and every time Kit murders, she leaves a letter with the dead body. Her moral nihilism and thus her murders are a way of life - the only way of life she has ever known.

But when a letter appears in the mailbox that will have the power to topple Kits convictions as perfectly as she commits her murders, she must make a decision: Follow the only rules she has ever known, or challenge Rule One and go from there.

Katherine Ewells Dear Killer is a sinister psychological thriller that explores the thin line between good and evil and the messiness of that inevitable moment when life contradicts everything you believe.

Review by 12 yr Old With Mom's Help

This is a review by my 12 year old, who read this book in less than 24 hours.

Even though the book seems like it would be full of blood and gore, it really isnât. When there is a part where she kills someone it isnât described. There is no romance at all in the book. They do cuss a bit, but it is British cussing so itâs funny. Overall this book is one of the best books I have ever read. When it ended I did not know what to do. It was that good.

The book is about a 17 year old girl who is an assassin. She gets a note, she makes the decision to kill or not based on the information in the note. Her mother is a killer who taught her how to kill, and taught her there is no right and no wrong.

Dear Killer

This book is a different way to look at serial killers for sure. I was shocked that the killer is a young girl but it is a family business. I was not as captured as I wanted to be by this book. I liked the story but I wanted something more from this author in this book. It was a very different point of view on a serial killer story from anything else I have read. The way the killer picked her victims was very unique as well. It you like books about serial killers you should give this one a try. 3/5

Great debut!

Wow. I don't know what I was expecting but it definitely wasn't this. What a thrill! What a ride. This was truly one of the most captivating reads of the year for me. I read it in two sittings. It would have been one had I not been so exhausted with work. Plainly put, if you like Dexter or Kick Ass, you'll love Dear Killer. Dear Killer is for you.

The premise reeled me in immediately. A teenage serial killer who answers the call based on the secret letters she receives via a secret mailbox stash? I'm totally in. A letter that hits close to home? Super in. Mistakes made and rules broken that could jeopardize everything Kit and her mother, a former serial killer, have worked so hard for? What!!! This story is wild. To say the least.

It's not for everyone. The kills are graphic. Kit's moral system may be difficult to grasp.

Genres: Teens, Mysteries & Thrillers

Publisher's Summary:

It was supposed to be a simple caviar heist. Dortmunder is almost in the building when the alarm sounds, forcing him up the fire escape and onto the roof. He leaps onto the next building, smashing his ankle and landing in the den of the worst kind of creature he can imagine: nuns.

Although decades removed from his Catholic orphanage, Dortmunder still trembles before the sisters habits. But these nuns are kinder than the ones he grew up with. They bandage his wound, let him rest, and dont call the cops - for a price. The father of the youngest member of their order, disgusted by their vow of silence, has kidnapped his daughter, locked her in a tightly guarded penthouse apartment, and is attempting to convince her to renounce her faith. The nuns ask Dortmunder to rescue the girl. Its an impossible assignment - but one he cannot refuse.

Critic Reviews:

"Dortmunder is back - hurrah! Brilliantly done." (The New York Times Book Review)

"[Westlakes] most durable character.... Whatever can go wrong in the mans elaborate attempts at larceny invariably does, and in the most amusing and unexpected ways possible." (Los Angeles Times)

Publisher's Summary:

You can't change your DNAeven when it says you're a murderer.

When Davy tests positive for Homicidal Tendency Syndrome, aka "the kill gene," she loses everything. Once the perfect high school senior, she is uninvited from her prep school and abandoned by her friends and boyfriend. Even her parents are now afraid of her - although she's never hurt a fly. Davy doesn't feel any different, but genes don't lie. One day she will kill someone.

Without any say in the matter, Davy is thrown into a special class for HTS carriers. She has no doubt the predictions are right about them, especially Sean, who already bears the "H" tattoo as proof of his violence. Yet when the world turns on the carriers, Sean is the only one she can trust. Maybe he's not as dangerous as he seems.

Or maybe Davy is just as deadly.

Members Reviews:

Grabbed me from the first page.

I don't usually write reviews, but I had to on this book. I started reading Sophie Jordan with her Firelight series. I really liked them so when this book came out I thought cool, I have to give that a read. I was not disappointed, this book had me from the very start. I really identified with Davy, I felt her agonies. Sophie truly brought Davy's character to life for me I felt transported into the story. I cried for Davy even before she could cry for herself. I loved her courage and toughness. I love that even after everything that was done to her she kept her humanity. I can't wait for the second book in the series!

Mix of Vanilla Sky/ Hunger Games/ Hollocaust.

If you could sum up Uninvited in three words, what would they be?

Vanillasky. Hungergames. Hollocaust.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Definitely the Male lead.

What does Rebecca Gibel bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book?

I like how it is a realistic portrayal of what could actually happen the3 way that society Is going. We are repeating past mistakes just thinking that we are more intelligent about how we do it now.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The group /gang mentality society is quick to take on when faced with what they perceive as a threat.

Started a little slow

I thought it started a little slow, but it turned out great recommend to teen readers!

Scary in the most realistic way possible!

This book had me engrossed from the moment I read the synopsis. This subject matter is something that could easily be true... could even become true in the future. The possibility of being singled out because of a single code in your DNA and being outcasted from society is an all-too realistic thought. It hits deep in your core because science is so evolved that you know it's just around the corner. Davy is every girl you know. Shawn and Gil every boy. The emotion, the character development, the world building... Absolutely riveting. Read this book. You won't regret it. Oh, and the author's note? Don't skip it.

Interesting and unique

Would you try another book from Sophie Jordan and/or Rebecca Gibel?

I've been wanting to read Sophie Jordan's Firelight series for a while, so yes.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

The killer gene and how individuals with the gene were treated was the most interesting.

Members Reviews:

Maggie and Roux are fantastic yet again. So Much FUN!!!

The first book in this series was better and a little more fun than this book but I still really enjoyed being in a Young Adult book again with actual Young Adults and not characters that do things that 30 year old characters would do.

First this book has actual parents in it. I KNOW!!! A young adult book where the parents arenât mysteriously absent the entire book or the MC is lying to them constantly, thank you. Maggie is a Spy her parents are spies and that does lead to some issues but she treats them like parents and they are a huge part of her life.

Second she has friendships and a boyfriend that seem age appropriate as well. These are the characters I enjoy in the book the most because they talk about things I think kids this age would talk about and usually it is light and fun and even when it gets a bit romantic it isnât over the top âI will love you until the end of timeâ. There are some very sweet and adorable moments between Jesse and Maggie and I loved them all but I also didnât feel smothered by them. (I know this is a super long passage but it was adorable and I didnât even put all of it in there)

âYou seriously donât know why I stick around?â he asked, almost incredulous. âAre you being serious right now?â

I nodded. I hated being vulnerable in front of him, asking him the questions whose answers scared me more than Dominic or any of his cohorts. â

Okay,â Jesse said, settling back next to me and putting his arm around my shoulders. âLetâs start with the Aâs!â

âYou arenât seriously going toââ

âAmbitious!â he said. âBeautiful. Caring. Determined. Eager to learn.â

âThatâs cheating,â I said, but I couldnât hide my smile.

âShh, Iâm trying to romance you on a rooftop in Paris. Be quiet. Where was I? Oh, yes. Fearless. Generous. Happy.â

âIâm not happy all the time!â

âYou have a happy spirit. Work with me, Mags, okay? This isnât easy. Ignominious!â

âI donât think thatâs a compliment.â

âJolly!â

âDid you just compare me to Santa Claus?â

âHeâs beloved by millions. You should be so lucky.â

Maggieâs friendship with the ever excited and overtly boisterous Roux is so much fun.

Any additional comments?

Top marks , couldn't fault the story or the narrator. More please !

Interesting but not an Alex Rider book

Life story of one of the baddies in the Alex Rider books. OK story but nothing as good as the Alex Rider books. The narrator uses an awful Russian accent throughout the book, would have been far better read without put on accent. Worth a listen but nothing special.

Intense Stunning Novel

This Book is amazingly written and read. It feels like you are actually There. STUNNING READ!

Its good but its wrong

The time ash tells alex about in snakehead when yassen stabbed him isnt in it. Its good though, other than that

chilling

very

... dark for an alex rider book. gripping. fascinating. every second something was happening. fast moving. deep.

Publisher's Summary:

Dear Mr. S. Harris,

Ignore the blob of red in the top left corner. It's jam, not blood, though I don't think I need to tell you the difference. It wasn't your wife's jam the police found on your shoe

Zoe has an unconventional pen pal - Mr. Stuart Harris, a Texas Death Row inmate and convicted murderer. But then again, Zoe has an unconventional story to tell. A story about how she fell for two brothers, betrayed one of them, and killed the other.

Hidden away in her backyard shed in the middle of the night with a jam sandwich in one hand and a pen in the other, Zoe gives a voice to her heart and her fears after months of silence. Mr. Harris may never respond to Zoe's letters, but at least somebody will know her story - somebody who knows what it's like to kill a person you love. Only through her unusual confession can Zoe hope to atone for her mistakes that have torn lives apart, and work to put her own life back together again.

Rising literary star Annabel Pitcher pens a captivating second audiobook, rich with her distinctive balance between humor and heart. Annabel explores the themes of first love, guilt, and grief, introducing a character with a witty voice and true emotional resonance.

Members Reviews:

amazing

This was not what I thought it would be. It had love and hate and everything. I would have loved to know Stu's side. reading letters from a young girl in Bath. Definitely a book to reread later in life.

Heartbreakingly Good

Heartbreaking, romantic, real and so sad. I loved how Zoe chose Stu to write to (the reasons becoming clearer as the story progresses), and how it turned out to be fairly therapeutic. Great narration as well!

Terrible narration! Disappointing ending

The narration of this was terrible. Long, drawn out pauses, slow speaking. I listened to this on 1.5x speed just to get through it.

The writing was engaging, but the story was fairly disappointing, with a very anticlimactic ending.

I'll be returning this one.

Funny, tragic, heart touching

Ketchup clouds is a captivating book and shows how love can be scary, dangerous, and memorable. I wouldn't let it fall between the cracks.

Hamhill3

This book exceeded my expectations, & I will highly recommend it to anyone. My most memorable moment was when I found out Aaron was writing letters as well.

Publisher's Summary:

Will Maine's historic Schooner Inne Bed and Breakfast be a safe haven for the island kids boarding during the school year - or the end of them all?

Christina Romney is thirteen, with a personality that matches her unruly but charming tri-colored hair. She is about to start seventh grade, and for kids from Maine's Burning Fog Island, that means leaving their little white schoolhouse for regular classrooms and life on the mainland. Everyone assures Christina it will be a fantastic year. Mainland school offers great advantages, after all: extracurricular activities other than boating and fishing, a gym, a cafeteria, and more kids her age. Best of all, this year the boarding students will live at the historic Schooner Inne, a former sea captain's house (and now a bed and breakfast) recently bought by the school's charismatic new principal and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. Shevvington.

But Christina is apprehensive. She adores the wildness and excitement of her island life. Boarding with her island friends will surely help: Anya, a beautiful senior, fifteen-year-old Benji, the aspiring lobsterman, and his crush-worthy younger brother Michael. But Christina's apprehension sharpens when Benji and Michael aren't as friendly as they used to be on the island, and Anya starts acting so strangely it seems she is slowly losing her mind. Christina is increasingly certain the Shevvingtons are behind all of these changes. But no one else can see the Shevvingtons' eerie behavior - not other teachers, not her parents, not even her fellow island kids. Is Anya the one going crazy in the Schooner Inne - or is it Christina?

Intriging

I enjoyed this series of books and I look foward to reading more titles from this author. I always enjoy books that jump right into a story and that are actually proof read prior to being published!

Worth the money for the series!!

I first read this book in high school. After 20 years and counting, I still can not read it! I love Stephen King for horror but this one book I have not been able to read beyond the first time when I found it in the school library. I purchased the entire series and still have them in my library but this one was enough to give me problems sleeping! Very good book and very good series - I do recommend this book to people who like the unexpected in teen scare books. I bet that that they will be pleased with the results!!

atmospheric and haunting

Christina lives on an island in Maine. She and her sister, Anya, are going to be shipped to the mainland for their schooling. Before their trip they run across a horrifying woman who forces an eerie poster of the sea on them. When they arrive, Christina is horrified to see that she'll be living with the principal, whose wife is creepy and domineering.

At school Christina is made fun of because of her lack of wealth, clothes, and island lingo. She suffers in the hands of the principal, counselor, and teachers. They accuse her of being difficult when she's merely requesting normal things and standing up for herself. The biggest problem is Anya, who seems to be losing her sense of self as well as her mind. Anya talks of the sea and how it's out to get them. Christina has to find a way to save her sister and herself from the madness of the water and their new household.

When I read this novel, I could smell and feel the sea next to me.

Publisher's Summary:

In a private-school conspiracy novel, 16-year-old Jason Weatherby knows exactly why he's at the Lambert School for the Gifted. And it's not for his brains. His dad is an influential state senator. It's this same connection that lands him a spot on the secretive Chamber of Five, the elite group of students who run the school with a shadow government, tapping into the same lines of powers as their parents.

When he's asked to physically assault and ruin the reputation of another student as part of his initiation, Jason sees firsthand the depravity of the Chamber - and decides to work from the inside to take it down. But Jason taps into a conspiracy - and school secrets - far more insidious than he could ever have imagined.

From award-winning author Michael Harmon comes a taut, thrillingly paced novel about the perils of privilege. Can one bold student set things right?

Editorial Reviews:

Jason Weatherby was born into great privilege, and now he must deal with great expectations. The son of a wealthy and well-connected politician, Jason is sent to his fathers alma mater, the prestigious Lambert School for the Gifted. Already in over his head, Jason discovers hes also expected to join a shadowy secret society - again, like his father - which surreptitiously rules over Lambert. When Jason is tasked with a nefarious initiation assignment, he decides to risk his fathers affections and take down the Chamber of Five. Performer Evan OReilly finds the voice of an ordinary teenager faced with extraordinary circumstance. OReilly lends vivid character acting to Jasons friends and foes, and brims with hastening urgency as weaves together this tangled web of corruption.

Couldn't put it down

Michael Harmon is my favorite author so I may be a bit biased, but also this means that his writing is easily enjoyable. Like the title states, I couldn't put this book down, it's suspense and dialogue kept me wanting to continue all day, and in fact this is the first novel I've ever read in less than 24 hours. The book seemed like a mix between the movies 'the skulls' and 'a place beyond the pines' (one of my favorite movies), and the character, Thomas Singletary, reminded me of the character, Emmitt, from 'Drillbit Taylor' but instead of being a wimp was actually a badass. With that being said the book was very fun to read, it wasn't mind blowing or my favorite Harmon novel, but it had me interested from cover to cover. Michael Harmon is killing the novel game. Give this book a read if you want something suspenseful with a twist that won't disappoint. Now I wait for the next Harmon book to drop.

Loved it! The story wasn't anything special but as ...

Loved it! The story wasn't anything special but as always Harmon's characters always get my attention

ended up being a great read. In the beginning of the book it's ...

The novel "The Chamber of Five" written by Michael Harmon, ended up being a great read. In the beginning of the book it's kind of hard to follow, but once all the characters are fully discussed and mentioned, the novel comes together quite well. This was my first Harmon novel i've read and it was defiantly worth it. There are some childish remarks throughout the book but nothing too bad. After reading "The Chamber of Five" I'm defiantly going to try some of his other novels.
