Summary

Gabriel isn't murdering anyone. He's saving them. The media has dubbed him the Seraphim Killer. He believes the gods have charged him to release The Chosen - those for whom life has become an unbearable torment. Gabriel feels their suffering: His hands burn; his skull thunders; his stomach clenches. Once they are free, he places gold coins over their eyes, to pay Charon for passage into Paradise.

Detective Marlowe Gentry has spent the past two years on the edge. The last serial killer he hunted murdered his wife before his eyes, and left his young daughter a mute shell. Whenever the girl looks at him, her dead eyes push him farther into a downward spiral of pain and regret. The Seraphim Killer is his opportunity for revenge, a chance to forgive himself - or die trying.

Is Gabriel a messenger of god?

Is Marlowe on a mission of redemption - or revenge?

The truth is hiding somewhere in the night.

Love and hope versus pain and despair.

A Coin for Charon is several books rolled into one, including a police proceedural, a serial killer's career, a love story and several mini biographies. It is a forceful story as all aspects interact. Well constructed, weaving the different characterizations together, this is not a who-dun-it mystery but a far deeper understanding of the why?

Beautifully written to bring all of the protagonists to live and with realistic conversation, Kevin Clay increases their reality with excellent, individual character voices. His reading of the text has good intonation and pacing, and is conveyed with understanding and emotion. A fine performance fitting the excellent writing.

I was fortunate in being freely gifted with a complimentary copy of A Coin For Sharon by the rights holder, following my request via Audiobook Boom. Thank you so much. It is a book I can happily recommend to anyone who enjoys killer thrillers with a real perspective of the people involved.
