Consumed: A Novel

by J. R. Ward Narrated by Jim Frangione, Hillary Huber, Pete Simonelli, Jason Carpenter

Overview

From the number-one New York Times best-selling author of the popular Black Dagger Brotherhood series comes a brand-new novel about arson investigator Ann Ashburn, who is consumed by her troubled past, her family's scorched legacy, and her current case: chasing a deadly killer.

Anne Ashburn is a woman consumed....

By her bitter family legacy, by her scorched career as a firefighter, by her obsession with department bad-boy Danny McGuire, and by a new case that pits her against a fiery killer.

Strong-willed Anne was fearless and loved the thrill of fighting fires, pushing herself to be the best. But when one risky decision at a warehouse fire changes her life forever, Anne must reinvent not only her job, but her whole self.

Shattered and demoralized, Anne finds her new career as an arson investigator a pale substitute for the adrenaline-fueled life she left behind. She doesn't believe she will ever feel that same all-consuming passion for her job again — until she encounters a string of suspicious fires setting her beloved city ablaze.

Danny McGuire is a premiere fireman, best in the county, but in the midst of a personal meltdown. Danny is taking risks like never before and seems to have a death wish until he teams up with Anne to find the fire starter. But Danny may be more than a distraction, and as Anne narrows in on her target, the arsonist begins to target her.

From the creator of the bestselling Black Dagger Brotherhood, get ready for a new band of brothers. And a firestorm.

Editorial Reviews

NOVEMBER 2018 - AudioFile

Narrators Hillary Huber, Jason Carpenter, Jim Frangione, and Pete Simonelli bring to life the story of firefighters Anne Ashburn and Danny Maguire. Anne suffers a career-ending injury and has to change her profession from firefighter to fire inspector. Her first case involves an abandoned warehouse fire that is similar to the fire in which she was hurt. The narration flows seamlessly among the four narrators with Carpenter, Simonelli and Frangione capably handling the female voices and Huber doing equally as well with the male. The story takes place near Boston, and some of the narrators attempt the Boston accent with some success. All four help the listener feel the emotions of the characters.
