AUDIOBOOK REVIEW: Hit Me by Peter Thompson

Author: Peter Thompson

Narrator: Gary Tiedemann

Length: 7 hours 30 minutes

Publisher: Peter J. Thompson

Released: Mar. 15, 2019

Genre: Mystery, Thriller



Hitman. Husband. Daddy. Dead man?

Charley Fieldner appears to have the perfect life: a well-paying job, a loving wife, two great kids, and a beautiful home.
He also has a big secret.

Charley is a hitman with a huge complication—he is his own next target.

The background file contains the sort of details only someone very close to him could know. The suspect list is short but devastating: his wife, father, sister, and best friend. Charley always thought he could have it all, but the secrets, lies, and betrayals are piling up.

Charley needs time to unravel the mystery behind who wants him dead and why, but time is in short supply. Another killer has the contract. He now has a choice—roll over and die, or fight for his life.






Peter Thompson grew up on the east side of Chicago, in the shadow of the steel mills where the air was sooty and smelled of sulfur. His life wasn’t always so gritty, but the grit and realism finds its way into his thrillers. He has always loved stories of every kind, and one of his joys is finding a way to get inside character’s heads, seeing the world as they see it and feeling their triumphs, pain, and fear. He visualizes his characters when he writes, and they are larger than life in the big screen of his imagination.

Before pursuing his passion and becoming a full-time author, he tried his hand at everything from factory work, breaking cement in a construction crew, running his own pizza shop, and he was a well-regarded presence in the mortgage industry for nearly thirty years. When he isn’t writing, Peter loves, spicy food, live music, and exciting and thought-provoking books and movies. He is a fitness buff who loves to spend time with his grown sons and is looking forward to traveling the world and seeking adventures with his lovely partner.

I was so nervous for the first hour of Hit Me by Peter J. Thompson. It was so slow and I was really worried that it wasn’t going to pick up the pace. The Runaway was such an action packed story from the first work that I wasn’t sure about this next one. But Peter Thompson finally pulled in me after that first hour. Charley is the main character, the hit man. You’ll either love him or hate him. I grew to like him and really root for him! It’s a quick, thrilling story. You’ll wade through the thicket of who would want him dead enough to pay for it. This ended up being a deeper story than I had expected.

The narrator, Gary Tiedemann, is seriously hypnotic to listen too. He’s what kept me entranced when I felt the story was having a hard time getting going. His voice is pleasant to listen to. It’s a nice strong voice with a great tone. I enjoyed his voice with this storyline specifically. He was a great hitman!
