Summary

What price would you pay for fame?

Following a convention in the Scottish Highlands, eight social media influencers vanish without a trace, leaving their followers–and families–in a state of shock, and the police clueless as to their whereabouts.

And then, the livestreams begin.

Broadcast live from their squalid underground cells, the young influencers are forced into a sadistic battle for survival.

With each livestream, their captor pits them against each other in a twisted competition for likes. The influencer with the fewest positive reactions faces a gruesome end–live on camera.

As the likes increase and the death toll rises, DCI Jack Logan and his team must traverse both the Scottish wilderness and the darkest corners of the internet to try and save the remaining captives.

But how do you catch a killer who is always one click ahead?

A Killer of Influence is the 20th book in the multi-million selling DCI Jack Logan series from internationally bestselling Scottish crime author, JD Kirk.

Un-put-down-able

Another absolute hit from JD Kirk’s incredible DCI Logan series. The previous book ended on a tantalising cliffhanger so I couldn’t wait to find out what it meant and what would happen. The main characters were as amazing as usual, with more insights into their relationships throughout the book which I loved. The twists and turns and surprises in the story had me on the edge of my seat - literally gasping out loud, staring open-mouthed and, at one point, crying! I found every opportunity to listen to it as I was desperate to find out what happened next…and I demolished the book in 2.5 days! Absolutely fantastic.

Rollercoaster of a read

On tenterhooks throughout. Jd Kirk never fails to deliver. Listened to the book over 3 days and did precious little else.

Utterly Excellent

Having just finished listening my first reaction is OMFG and can I slap JD Kirk for the rollercoaster of emotions and tension I felt whilst listening to this excellent book!
Of course other books in this series have caused angst when things happen to our beloved characters, but this one was a demon and I have nearly ground my teeth down!
It is another excellent book by JD Kirk and I cannot wait to see what happens next to DCI Logan and the Team.
Narration is by the mega talented Angus King whom once again brings the whole book to life; their voices, their characteristics and the way he always remembers exactly how each person sounds giving us continuity.

Another excellent listen

J D Kirk is my favourite author, what I love most are the characters and how he can make me burst out laughing then have me so anxious for them I cannot put the book down. Keep writing these fantastic books

Best One Yet!

Angus King is a genius. He brought this book to life in such a way that I sometimes felt I needed to listen to him from behind a cushion!

Rather uselessly I couldn't second guess the outcome until the last 7 minutes. I predicted one rather major issue but had no idea how that would unfold. There were times when I found myself completely dry-mouthed, everything about this story was woven together well and delivered with the scariest of overtones by King.

I sincerely hope whatever happy writing space JD Kirk was in for this book, he makes it his permanent home - I'd give it more stars if allowed.

Another belter

Brilliant, as always. Laugh out loud, heartfelt moments, twists and turns, great characters and an interesting storyline all wrapped up in a very satisfying way.
This next instalment of the Logan series is a winner in my book.
