Publisher's Summary:
Twenty years ago a young cop named Jacqueline "Jack" Daniels arrested one of the most sadistic killers she'd ever encountered. She has since retired from the Chicago Police Department in order to raise her toddler daughter.
But old grudges never die. They fester until the right opportunity comes along.
While on vacation in the Wisconsin North Woods, Jack learns - too late - that her old adversary is out of prison. He has revenge on his mind. And he's bringing an army with him.
Outnumbered, outgunned, and cut off from the outside world, Jack Daniels is about to learn the meaning of last stand.
This is the ninth Jack Daniels novel, after Stirred. More than one million Jack Daniels novels have been sold worldwide.

Hated The Narrator
I love this series, but hated that he went with a male narrator for Jack. The previous narrators who have narrated the whole series until this point were the true voices of Jack, Herb & Harry that we've all come to love over the years. What a way to ruin a great audiblle series. I quit listening and just read the book, because it wasn't Jack
Narrator cannot pass as a woman!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Bob Walkenhorst?
The original narrator (Susie Breck) or someone who can carry a woman's voice. Absolutely no attempt to imitate a woman"s voice.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Extremely upset, as I finally get to hear the last of the series & can't, especially when there are comments specific to a woman yet cannot get past hearing a man trying to be feminine.
Any additional comments?
Very sad to not be able to finish the series! Shame on the team who chose a male narrator!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had my hopes up
I was so excited to see a new Jack Daniels book! First just let me say Bob is a very good narrator but when you have a series of books read by the same narrators, changing narrators threw me off. I kept getting lost between who was talking, Fin or Jack. I also didn't get those creepy cringing belly laughing reactions that I got from the last eight books, not sure if it was due to to the change of narrators, the authors writing or a combination of the two.
Great Detective Series 9th book in series
I am still enjoying this series and look forward to the next book even as I am finishing the current book. I am enjoying this author he is a great horror and detective series books. These are funny, action packed, fast paced, and they do have a lot of violence although that doesn't bother me. They center around Jack a female detective and her partner, ex-partner, family, friends, and past/current criminals she is pursuing or has put in jail in past. I have listened to all these using audible and have not been disappointed. I was surprised they changed the narrator on this book but he did a good job also.
