About this listen
FBI agent-in-training Mackenzie White struggles to make her mark in the FBI Academy in Quantico, trying to prove herself as a woman and as a transplant from Nebraska. Hoping she has what it takes to become an FBI agent and leave her life in the Midwest behind for good, Mackenzie just wants to keep a low profile and impress her superiors.
But all that changes when the body of a woman is found in a garbage dump. The murder bears shocking similarities to the Scarecrow Killer - the case that made Mackenzie famous in Nebraska - and in the frantic race against time to stop a new serial killer, the FBI decides to break protocol and give Mackenzie a chance on the case.
It is Mackenzie's big break, her chance to impress the FBI - but the stakes have never been higher. Not everyone wants her on the case, and everything she touches seems to go wrong. As the pressure mounts and the killer strikes again, Mackenzie finds herself as a lone voice in a sea of experienced agents, and she soon realizes she is in way over her head. Her entire future with the FBI is in jeopardy.
As tough and determined as Mackenzie is, as brilliant as she is in hunting down killers, this new case proves an impossible riddle, something just beyond her reach. She may not even have time to crack it as her own life falls apart around her.

In ONCE GONE, women are turning up dead in the rural outskirts of Virginia, killed in grotesque ways, and when the FBI is called in, they are stumped. A serial killer is out there, his frequency increasing, and they know there is only one agent good enough to crack this case: Special Agent Riley Paige. Riley is on paid leave herself, recovering from her encounter with her last serial killer, and, fragile as she is, the FBI is reluctant to tap her brilliant mind. Yet Riley, needing to battle her own demons, comes on board, and her hunt leads her through the disturbing subculture of doll collectors, into the homes of broken families, and into the darkest canals of the killer’s mind. As Riley peels back the layers, she realizes she is up against a killer more twisted than she could have imagined.

Story
It looked for all the world like a terrible, tragic accident. Susanna Morgan had gotten up in the middle of the night, tripped, fallen, and broken her neck. Yet when detective Justin Westwood inspects the victim's apartment, he can't help noticing that the details don't quite add up. The glass on the bedside table is knocked over but there are no cuts on her body. The scrape on her knee looks suspiciously fresh. And then a terrified witness comes forward, confirming his worst fear.

Story
Thomas Kilbride is a map-obsessed schizophrenic so affected that he rarely leaves the self-imposed bastion of his bedroom. But with a computer program called Whirl360.com, he travels the world while never so much as stepping out the door. He pores over and memorizes the streets of the world. He examines every address, as well as the people who are frozen in time on his computer screen. Then he sees something that anyone else might have stumbled upon - but has not - in a street view of downtown New York City: an image in a window. An image that looks like a woman being murdered.

Story
Alan Gregory is a clinical psychologist with a thriving practice in Boulder, Colorado. His life begins to unravel when one of his female patients is found in an apparent suicide and the local paper begins printing accusations from an unnamed source of sexual impropriety between the woman and Dr. Gregory. He launches a psychological and personal quest for the truth that rapidly intensifies when more of his patients die untimely deaths, and Gregory suspects not only that the deaths are related but that another one of his patients may be somehow involved. Lacking facts but roused by suspicion and troubled by seemingly random acts of terror around him, Gregory starts to fear for the safety of the people he loves. The question of the inviolability of confidential disclosures made to Gregory by his patients - privileged information - becomes crucial as the psychologist pursues an unsettling romance with Lauren Crowder, a lovely deputy district attorney investigating one of the deaths. Bound to silence, Gregory follows the psychological tracks of someone he fears may be a cunning and disturbed killer, while turning to his enigmatic but supportive partner, Diane Estevez, for counsel, and to his tart-tongued female urologist neighbor for support. The sinister, surprising drama unfolds against Boulder's Rocky Mountain backdrop, in the arresting natural beauty of Aspen, and in the midst of a baroque Halloween costume party in downtown Boulder. Finally, in a lonely mountain lodge enshrouded in menace, the story comes to its breathtaking climax.

Narrator's. Voice does not fit storyline
I could have enjoyed this story but why on earth would they have someone with a full English accent read this? It threw it off for me and was a huge distraction. Otherwise the story was an ok read.

Interesting characters and pretty engaging story but the British accent and pronunciation was disconcerting. Is only an issue on audio book.

unbelievable
Good story with a few areas where I had to willingly suspend disbelief that an FBI agent, or anypne, would make certain leaps of intuition. But the narrator rendered it non believanle. She does a great job, but this FBI story is no place for a full-on British accent.

An average FBI thriller
This is the second book by Blake Pierce that I have read. The first one was in the Avery Black series. This one, however, was the second book in MacKenzie White series. While decidedly better than the other book I read, the plot is very simple and the mystery seems easily solved. Try as I might I had a hard time feeling any connection with any of the characters in the book, it just didn't seem to happen.
Furthermore, as with the other book I have read by the author, the superior officers (to the main character) are described in a way that seems almost cartoonish, blowhards that overreact and are unwilling to listen, even to common sense.
The performance of the narrator was okay, not bad, nothing amazing either.

Performance Inconsistent with Story!
A story set in DC about a female police officer from Minnesota becoming an FBI agent and solving serial killer cases is right up my alley! However, the performance was so incongruous with the story, I couldn't stay focused on it. All of the characters had British/Irish accents!!!! They are US FBI agents living in DC speaking with heavy accents! It was sooooooo distracting.

This pretty good novella
loses impact as Pierce tries to turn it into to a full length novel. Interesting plot, stretched out by some unbelievable buracracy. Sympathetic and believable shero from book 1 of the series starts becoming a pitiful girl who makes bad choices by the middle of this story, book 2.

Before He Sees
What made the experience of listening to Before He Sees the most enjoyable?
Again, as I have said in the previous book, the way she projects "the hard-headedness" of this detective.
What other book might you compare Before He Sees to and why?
Before He Kills, because they have the same detective, same problems.
What does Elaine Wise bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
See above.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
No
Any additional comments?
Good book, Pierce just doesn't disappoint, I'm happy to say.

Knock Knock
Mackenzie really wanted to join the FBI. She had solved a big case in Nebraska while still an undergraduate but was transferred to a big city branch of the Academy when they needed help. She was known to do things her own way which didn't usually didn't sit well with her superiors.
Nude female bodies were turning up in the landfill and Mackenzie and her assigned partner were hopeful they could catch the stone cold killer before another dead woman surfaced at the landfill.
I enjoyed the way the story was presented. Introduce the killer and Mackenzie, then follow McKenzie as she tries to figure out who the killer is and catch him, her way.
