Summary

Chicago video producer Ellie Foreman has been absent from thriller author Libby Fischer Hellmann's repertoire for almost a decade. Now, in Jump Cut, she's back...and is soon entangled in a web of espionage, murder, and suspicion that threatens to destroy what she holds most dear.

Hired to produce a candy-floss profile of Chicago-based aviation giant Delcroft, Ellie is dismayed when company VP Charlotte Hollander trashes the production and cancels the project. Ellie believes Hollander was spooked by shots of a specific man in the video footage. But when Ellie arranges to meet the man to find out why, he is killed by a subway train before they can talk. In the confusion, she finds a seemingly abandoned pack of cigarettes with a flash drive inside that belonged to the now-dead man.

Ellie gets the drive's contents decrypted, but before long discovers she's under surveillance. Suspecting Delcroft and the ambitious Hollander are behind it, she's unconvinced when Hollander tells her the dead man was a Chinese spy. Ellie and her boyfriend, Luke, try to find answers, but they don't realize how far they have ventured into the dangerous echelons of hidden power - where more lives are on the line - including their own.

Another great one

Ok so it’s about time Georgia Davies and Ellie teamed up as PIs as poor Ellie is always being dragged into this dangerous situations. This story is great as always and it’s nice to see her love life finally going in the right direction.

Enjoyable mystery

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

From the get go the author picked the pace, and though the five in the series you did not need to read the first five...

What about Nan McNamara’s performance did you like?

She matched the pace of the story and made it enjoyable to read

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

yes

Any additional comments?

As I have said this is the fifth in the series, but she had the ability to let you dip your toe in a book, without being the need to start at the very beginning was enjoyable
