Summary

"Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster. For, when you gaze long into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you." (Friedrich Nietzsche)

The Violet Darger series continues with this gripping novella Into the Abyss.

Will Violet Darger agree to a face-to-face meeting with the man who shot her? Still awaiting trial, the infamous serial killer Leonard Stump has hinted at the locations of additional bodies - more desert graves waiting to be uncovered. He wants to talk, but he has one condition. Violet Darger must be present at the interview.

Now, the pressure is on. Should Darger head to Vegas and sit down with Stump? Everyone else seems to think so.

It’s a chance to close some cases and give families closure, they say. A chance to learn something crucial about the criminal mind, they say. A chance to do something good.

So, why does Darger feel like it’s all going to go terribly wrong?

While the Violet Darger novels can be listened to in any order, we recommend listening to this short after having listened to the earlier books in the series.

Another great tale of Violet Darger

Violet Darger, ex FBI BSU officer, is working for a private investigation service. In this book she has to revisit an old adversary who nearly killed her at their last meeting so understandably she has reservations about interviewing him in prison, where he is awaiting trial for being a serial killer.
This book is again well written by McBain and Vargus and draws us into Violet’s world. It is bought to life by Kate Marcin who has previously narrated the Darger books and made a great job of it.
If you enjoy serial killer, thriller type books then this could be a great choice for you. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
This is the latest in a series of Violet Darger books so it may be worth while checking out the previous ones first especially with this particular book as there are references to other books in the series.
