Summary
In A Small Town, twelve conspirators meticulously plan to throw open all the gates to the prison that contains them, so that more than a thousand convicts may escape and pour into the nearby small town. The newly freed prisoners rape, murder, and destroy the town-burning down homes and businesses. An immense search ensues, but the twelve who plotted it all get away.

After two years, all efforts by the local and federal police agencies have been in vain. The mayor and city attorney meet, and Leah Hawkins, a six-foot, two-inch former star basketball player and resident good cop, is placed on sabbatical so that she can tour the country learning advanced police procedures. The sabbatical is merely a ruse, however, as her real job is to track the infamous twelve. And kill them.

Leah's mission takes her across the country, from Florida to New York, from California to an anti-government settlement deep in the Ozarks. Soon, the surviving fugitives realize what she is up to, and a race to kill or be killed ensues. Full of exhilarating twists and surprisingly resonant, A Small Town will sweep listeners along on Leah's quest for vengeance.

I’d never read anything by this author and I was glad I gave it a shot! I love this type of story and it was a great book which kept my attention (a little too much when I needed to focus on something else!) Can’t wait to give other titles a “read”!

The last big baddie of this book is a right wing, Arian brotherhood, holy rollin’, commie??? You read that correctly, a scripture spouting commie! It’s the most absurd thing I’ve ever heard in my life. The only thing that saves this book for me is the climax happens in my hometown of the Twin Cities, Monroe/West Monroe, La. so, even though I moved away many years ago, I know all the streets, river, bridges, buildings, and areas he is referring to. This book was terrible and the narrator wasn’t much better. Not sure if I’ll give this author another try or not.

After reading a few chapters I almost put it aside. It was a little violent/ vigilante for my taste. I'm glad I didn't. As the characters personalities developed the plot became more apparent than just a good vs evil tale. The narrator was fabulous I had no trouble distinguishing between characters.

Good story, grabs your attention right away. Drags a pinch towards the end, but still good story overall. Good narrator.

The narrator was not that good. I Think it was took away from the story.

Somewhat of a gruesome storyline with some needless details about sexual adventures not necessary. Good listen while walking during Covid that kept me listening. Narrator was pretty good
