This review is for the audio book.
I enjoyed this book. I liked the fact that it wasn’t just a straight forward case and in fact the bad guy is playing games with the FBI agents, it made it interesting and gave the book a good twist on a simple plot. It could have been a bit longer making more of the clues but then again I am happy to listen to a 12 hour long story. Other than that I really liked it and I am off to start the next next book.
When a raid on a crime family’s home goes horrible wrong and a suspects dies. A member of the family swears revenge and targets the two FBI agents he believes the ones responsible. As his deadly plot unfolds the husband and wife team have no choice but to play along with his game and do as he says, in order to protect the innocent public, not to mention there own family members.
I like the narrator, she spoke clearly and with emotion.
The dangers of their job hit close to home…
After listening to the audiobook of the first book in the Heartfelt Cases series, and not being overly impressed, I was a little reluctant to try The Kiverson Case. But, I’m glad I did. I was pleasantly surprised to find that I did like this second book in the series by Julie C. Gilbert.
While not a riveting psychological story, it is a nice easy to read/listen romantic suspense novel and it made a decent diversion while completing daily tasks. One of the things that I really appreciated about this book is that Julie C. Gilbert’s hero and heroine are a married couple which made that dynamic quite different from most romantic suspense novels.
As with the first book in the Heartfelt Cases series, I listened to The Kiverson Case in audiobook. I did like the narrator’s voice, and she did a good job differentiating characters by using different ‘voices’, but there were some technical issues and a distracting amount of mispronounced words. Not a top notch production, but, it was OK. I don’t regret listening and I plan on ‘reading’ the next book in the series.

The Kiverson Case by Julie C Gilbert.
Heartfelt Cases book 2
I love the shorter length of the book without missing out on content. The author has not rushed the elements, but has written a good evening’s read.
Patrick and Ann are married now, and are still partners in the FBI. I love when she introduces them as Agent Duncan and my husband Agent Duncan.
They are involved in what they believed would be a routine arrest of a crime family known for trafficking, murder, fraud, etc. They are to arrest the father and mother and bring in the adult children for questioning. During the arrest the mother commits suicide and Ann is blamed for the death.
Kevin Kiverson leads the Duncans in a game that could easily turn deadly. When the baby becomes a target, things heat up.
Great easy read with plenty of suspense and tension.
