Thoughts:
While working a case in Prescott, Illinois, FBI Agent
Constant Marlowe spots an unsettling exchange between a college student,
Kathleen, and a man who instantly sets off her instincts. When Constant steps
in, she learns Kathleen is being stalked and threatened after writing a letter
to the university about potential brain injuries among the school’s football
players. Instead of taking her concerns seriously, the situation spiraled when
a chauvinistic talk‑show host blasted her name on air and twisted the facts for
outrage and ratings.
I was relieved Constant intervened, Kathleen was getting
almost no support from campus officials or local police, and that radio host
was a piece of work!
This short mystery isn’t as straightforward as it first appears
and I enjoyed seeing it all play out in such a satisfying way!
I listened to the audiobook, narrated by Christina Traister,
and she was fantastic. Her calm, steady delivery suits Constant perfectly, and
she shifts into the other characters’ voices with ease. A really strong
performance that enhanced the story.

Book Description:
For Special Agent Constant Marlowe, a quiet college town hides a nest of malice and revenge in this twisty novella by New York Times bestselling author Jeffery Deaver.
Special Agent Constant Marlowe is passing through the charming college town of Prescott, Illinois, when a chance encounter with a terrified student stops her in her tracks. Kathleen Delaine thought she was doing the right thing when she demanded an inquiry into traumatic brain injuries among the university’s football team. But after a manosphere shock jock picks up the story on his radio show and makes it personal, the online uproar bleeds into the real world. As Constant works to identify which of the host’s fanboys is threatening Kathleen, she discovers that behind the bullying campaign lies a vast and deadly conspiracy.
