This is my first experience with author Colleen Cross and narrator Petrea Burchard.
Katerina Carter is a down-on-her-luck forensic accountant trying to make her private investigation firm a success. Things aren't going well, and she's on the verge of closing up shop. Then, she's approached about a massive corporate theft, and it's her chance to finally get her finances back in order.
The book starts slowly, weighed down by a ton of exposition in long monologues that explain certain facts, hist...

This audiobook had all the bada** elements of a great action movie. Falsified diamonds, high-speed chases, murders, kidnapping, and a ton of other adventures are packed into Colleen Cross's *Exit Strategy: A Katerina Carter Legal Thriller*. If you're looking for a gripping legal thriller, look no further. Katerina is a fantastically strong character. When she first takes the case to study the possible fraud at Liberty, she doesn’t think her discovery will land her in such danger. However, once s...

I've got to be honest, 2019 is kicking off on a pretty dull note for me, book-wise. I'm actually certified to investigate fraud... and back in the day, I used to investigate insurance fraud. So, naturally, the premise of "Exit Strategy: A Katerina Carter Legal Thriller" totally grabbed me. But when I finally got around to reading Colleen Cross's "Exit Strategy: A Katerina Carter Legal Thriller"... I felt... well, not much. There's just so much going on in this book... I mean, seriously, a lot! M...

I requested the audiobook of *Exit Strategy: A Katerina Carter Legal Thriller* by Colleen Cross, narrated by Peters Burchard, and this review is voluntary. Wow! This book throws you right into suspense with a mob boss and his daughter, illegal diamonds, kidnapping, murder, and money laundering! I even learned a ton about the illegal diamond trade. This was so fast-paced, with constant, on-the-go action and adventure, that I had to listen to it all in one sitting. I can't wait for more in the ser...

The writing was alright, but there were quite a few missing words in sentences from about halfway through. Honestly, the excessive detail really slowed things down to a snail's pace. All the repetition made it a real slog to actually finish reading Colleen Cross's "Exit Strategy: A Katerina Carter Legal Thriller". If you're looking for fast-paced legal thriller book reviews, this might not be for you.

It started off promising, but "Exit Strategy: A Katerina Carter Legal Thriller" quickly spiraled into unbelievable territory. Honestly, I'm baffled by all the glowing reviews. As legal thrillers go, this one just didn't hold up for me.

In Exit Strategy: A Katerina Carter Legal Thriller, Colleen Cross delivers a pulse-pounding story of global conspiracy where high-stakes finance meets illicit diamond trafficking. Cross takes us on a thrill ride as Kat, her sharp-witted and tenacious investigator, battles the clock to reclaim billions in stolen funds while dodging the fury of organized crime. This expertly written, action-packed thriller will have you glued to the pages until the very last line as you desperately try to figure o...

Colleen Cross, a Goodreads author, introduces readers to a fantastic new protagonist in Katerina Carter. As a forensic accountant, she slightly reminds me of Kinsey Millhone. Kat is broke, living in her office, and her ex-boyfriend is more present in her life than she'd like. Finally, she lands a case: Liberty Diamond Mines’ CFO has vanished along with $5 billion. She uncovers a diamond laundering scheme at one of Liberty’s mines, then a major stockholder is murdered, and a former geologist refu...

I had no idea what a forensic accountant was until reading Colleen Cross's *Exit Strategy: A Katerina Carter Legal Thriller*. (Turns out, they track down missing money in financial crimes.) And I definitely didn't think a story about one could be so exciting, suspenseful, and downright scary.
Katarina (Kat) Carter, a forensic accountant, gets a call when five billion dollars vanishes from a Canadian diamond mining corporation. She's baffled why they chose her. She feels like the least experienc...
