About this listen
Beautiful killer Gretchen Lowell tightens her grip on Detective Archie Sheridan in Let Me Go, New York Times bestseller Chelsea Cain's newest nail-biter.
Detective Archie Sheridan is about to receive a birthday present from the last person he ever wants to see again: serial killer Gretchen Lowell.
The investigation into Jack Reynolds's drug enterprise is heating up and has Archie heading off to attend a masked Halloween party on Jack Reynolds's island, where Susan is a reluctant guest. But the next morning one of the guests is found murdered, and Archie quickly realizes that nothing is what it seems. Only one thing is clear: Gretchen is back, and she's been closer than anyone thinks. On Halloween Eve, with time running out, Archie will have to risk everything, and choose wisely whom to trust, if he and his loved ones are going to live through the night.

Psychiatrist Dr. Gwen Moore is an expert on killers. She’s spent a decade treating California’s most depraved predators and unlocking their motives - predators much like the notorious Bloody Heart serial killer, whose latest teenage victim escaped and then identified local high school teacher Randall Thompson as his captor. The case against Thompson as the Bloody Heart Killer is damning - and closed, as far as Gwen and the media are concerned. If not for one new development.

“Christina Delaine voices Gretchen with a sultry purr that barely hides her twisted craving for blood…Overall, Delaine adds a bit of class to this fast-paced thriller.” —AudioFile Magazine
“Reader Christina Delaine masterfully captures all the voices and the tenor of the story, especially Gretchen's seductive evil. Cain's fans and those who enjoy serial killer stories will readily embrace this audiobook.” —Library Journal

I hope there is a next book in the series
This is a great series and must be read in order to fully understand the relationship between Archie and Gretchen. So many feelings of love, hate, mental addiction, repulsion, sympathy etc. are evoked by these characters. In this addition a small faction of untouchables mess with the wrong detective and boy did they underestimate his unknown guardian. Gretchen is the last thing they expected and the first thing they should have run for the hills from. Fast action thriller with the return of the usual suspects. I think the best story in the series thus far. The rumors are spinning around a possible 7th book. Great narration.

Over the top
As the novels pile up featuring serial killer Gretchen Lowell and Detective Archie Sheridan, it gets harder and harder to top the previous novels, which leads directly to scenes and events that are unbelievable. At the same time, if you grant the author these without embracing disbelief, the novels are quite good. Granted, not every horizontal wound looks like a gaping mouth even if they're all described that way. Also, Archie Sheridan is one of the horniest mid-forties buggers on the planet. You would think he would eventually learn not to think with his groin, but he's certainly not unique among the male population suffering from that failing.
The novels excel when it comes to plotting and characterization. The relationships are dynamic and interesting without being needlessly progressive. I like that.
This is an excellent novel. Highly recommended.

Sometimes Less is More
Where does Let Me Go rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I would rate this book a 7. When I compare it to Unbroken, Help, The Lone Survivor, it's trivial. However she's a new writer and I give her a 7 for the intricate piecing together of this story.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Archie as he was the only person I could trust.
What didn’t you like about Christina Delaine’s performance?
Her voice
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
No
Any additional comments?
Chelsea needs to learn that less is more. And when she defines her character, she shouldn't deviate from the plan. Correct me if I'm wrong, but why would Archie have sex with Gretchen in the middle of trying to find Susan.
I didn't feel Chelsea knew how to end a love scene. She would drone on and on and on. Finding Susan was another chapter that could've been edited better.

Great Character Development!
Listened for fun (Audible)
Overall Rating: 4.00
Story Rating: 3.50
Character Rating: 4.50
Audio Rating: 4.50 (not part of the overall rating)
First Thought when Finished: Let Me Go was strong in character development/growth but the story wasn't my favorite in the series.
Note: If I was rating this book against the others in the series it would have been 3. Let Me go when compared against others in the genre ranks a 4. Choosing how to rank on goodreads, I tend to stick with my higher inclination but wanted to note that it wasn't the strongest in the series.
Story Thoughts: Parts of Let Me Go were fantastic. Oddly enough, it was the parts that involved the case that Archie was working on. However, the parts with Gretchen just did not feel like their normal magic to me. Parts were repetitious and other parts I just wanted more from. That being said, this was a very good read! I love Chelsea's writing and I highly recommend her!
Character Thoughts: Archie is a fascinating character to me. His experiences with Gretchen have made him more complicated, damaged, and very good at his job. I am though, hopeful for him! I want him to let in happiness. This one didn't get him there but I think I see a spark. I really liked the character development of Susan in Let Me Go. She is really getting to shine and come into her own. I believe she is almost as fascinating as Gretchen. Gretchen is still Gretchen! What I love about her is that she knows herself so well and acts accordingly!
Audio Thoughts:
Narrated By Christina Delaine / Length: 13 hrs and 3 mins
Christina has done a freaking fantastic job since taking over the series. I really think she gets the characters spot on. She changes her emotions to match who she is narrating and you can tell just from that! Overall a fantastic performance.
Final Thoughts: Again on the countdown to the next installment.

Not For the Faint of Heart
If you could sum up Let Me Go in three words, what would they be?
Really screwed up!
Who was your favorite character and why?
Archie seems to be growing on me more and maybe it's because he's showing more emotion. The flash back scenes were nice to have, and explained a lot about this complex man.
Have you listened to any of Christina Delaine’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
NA
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No, I found I needed to take a break from it. Some parts were just a bit much and I usually like screwed up and twisted books.
Any additional comments?
It's good, just really super twisted:)

Yassssss!!!
I love this book! It was so good I turned down the wrong street while listening! I didn't think anyone could rival Karin Slaughter. But Chelsea Cain is giving her real competition.

Great suspense and thrills!
I will kinda miss these characters but stayed awake too man my nights listening to them; I found a lot of the dry humor entertaining by Susan and her mom Bliss. Thoroughly enjoyed all six in the series.

Last 2 books are the best!!
The last 2 books in Archie and Gretchen series are great audibles. Narrator is really good. Only issue is you need the first 4 books of the series for the character story line to be good.
