About this audiobook

In this action-packed thriller, a quiet seafront town is targeted by vicious criminals, leaving locals no choice but to team up and save the place they love.
The Inn at Gloucester stands alone on the rocky shoreline. Its seclusion suits former Boston police detective Bill Robinson, novice owner and innkeeper. As long as the dozen residents pay their rent, Robinson doesn't ask any questions. Neither does Sheriff Clayton Spears, who lives on the second floor.
Then Mitchell Cline arrives, with a deadly new way of doing business. His crew of local killers break laws, deal drugs, and bring violence to the doors of the Inn. That's when Robinson realizes, with the help of journalist Susan Solie, that leaving the city is no escape from the reality of evil -- or the responsibility for action.
Teaming up with Sheriff Spears and two fearless residents -- Army veteran Nick Jones and groundskeeper Effie Johnson -- Robinson begins a risky defense. The solitary inhabitants of the Inn will have to learn, before time runs out, that their only choice is between standing together -- or dying alone.

Ratings and reviews

the audiobooks is wonderful. the reader does a great job. the book has colorful language at time and this is a predictable plot but the inn and the characters are interesting enough. I think the audiobook brings life to the book. if I read it I wouldn't be as engaged.

Huge Patterson fan and I generally enjoy audio books. This one could not hold my attention. Not sure if it was the story line or narrator but I was constantly losing interest and having to rewind and start over. Just lack luster.

every word put the hold story together.
