Summary
“An absolutely first-rate thriller.”—New York Times Book Review
Seattle PD sex-crimes detective Livia Lone knows the monsters she hunts. Sold by her Thai parents along with her little sister, Nason; abused by the men who trafficked them; marooned in America...the only thing that kept Livia alive as a teenager was her determination to find Nason.
Livia has never stopped looking. And she copes with her failure to protect her sister by doing everything she can to put predators in prison.
Or, when that fails, by putting them in the ground.
But when a fresh lead offers new hope of finding Nason and the men who trafficked them both, Livia will have to go beyond just being a cop. Beyond even being a vigilante. She’ll have to relive the horrors of the past. Take on one of the most powerful men in the US government. And uncover a conspiracy of almost unimaginable evil.
In every way, it’s an unfair fight. But Livia has two advantages: her unending love for Nason—
And a lifelong lust for vengeance.

Critic reviews
"Author Barry Eisler narrates his own work with the skill of a professional voice actor.... He never strains credulity as Livia transitions from child victim to confident woman and avenging angel for the abused. Livia's male abusers—especially her stepfather—practically hiss with vileness, like coiled snakes. When young Livia learns jujutsu and starts fighting back, listeners will share her visceral catharsis and newfound empowerment." (AudioFile)

East meets west in traffic
Not a pleasant subject to be dealt with but handled without glorification . The story moves at a great pace from the start with no side filling to fill out the tale. Looking forward to book two of this series .

Livia Lone
Congratulations to the author for his narration. Very dark, emotional story. This is the first book that I have listened to by this author. It won't be the last.

Love love love
Amazing book. The writing is so engaging with the back and forth between now and then, causing you to really connect with Livia, or Labee. A brilliant thriller all round

One of the best books I've heard for ages. Loved everything about this story. Very grim in parts but I just had to keep listening. Highly recommended

Great book, Barry Eisler doesn't pull his punches.
Excellent narration brought this story to life. Thought provoking topic, a black mirror on our species's.

Another great one from Eisler
Would you listen to Livia Lone again? Why?
I would read the book again, rather than listen
What other book might you compare Livia Lone to, and why?
If you've read Eisler's other books, you know the well crafted, fast paced, sexy, gritty works they are
What aspect of Barry Eisler’s performance might you have changed?
Barry is a terrific author and a great guy. What he isn't, however, is an actor. Although his performance is quite good, I'd rather see his books read by Jeff Harding, who read some of the earlier Rain books

Diehard Rain fan
Absolutely loved this, I was unsure before I started it not being a Rain novel, but I was quickly hooked and can't wait to start the next
