The Girl on the Bridge Audiobook Summary

From New York Times bestselling author of the acclaimed McCabe and Savage series comes an electrifying new thriller of taut and twisted suspense.

On a freezing December night, Hannah Reindel leaps to her death from an old railway bridge into the rushing waters of the river below. Yet the real cause of death was trauma suffered twelve years earlier when Hannah was plucked from a crowd of freshman girls at a college fraternity party, drugged, and then viciously assaulted by six members of the college football team.

Those responsible have never faced or feared justice. Until now. A month after Hannah’s death, Joshua Thorne–former Holden College quarterback and now a Wall Street millionaire–is found murdered, his body bound to a bed and brutally mutilated.

When a second attacker dies in mysterious circumstances, detectives Mike McCabe and Maggie Savage know they must find the killer before more of Hannah’s attackers are executed. But they soon realize, these murders may not be simple acts of revenge, but something far more sinister.

The Girl on the Bridge is a compelling and harrowing tale of suspense that once read will not easily be forgotten.

The Girl on the Bridge is the 5th book in the McCabe and Savage series, but you don't need to read the other books in order to enjoy this one. I had never read anything from Hayman before, so I was pleasantly surprised at the fast pace, developed characters, and constant action. The novel follows two detectives as they attempt to solve a murder case of two men and a woman. Both McCabe and Savage are excellent detectives and somehow always manage to be at the right place at the right time. McCabe has an impressive photographic memory and Savage is as tough as nails, making this duo the best Portland PD has to offer. I thoroughly enjoyed The Girl on the Bridge and highly recommend it to readers who love a good crime novel. The characters were complex and the fast paced story kept me on my toes from start to finish. It was a fun read and I will definitely be picking up more of Hayman's books in the future.

Fun readIf you are looking for a good, light suspense/ police procedural story, this is a good one. The characters are likeable and the story is engaging. I will definitely read more about McCabe and Maggie.

A true suspense mystery with a couple of plot twists along the way. The clues are there if you catch them. A sad but fairly accurate commentary on one of today's social issues....date rape especially on campus and how both the victim and perpetrators are treated after the crime. Clever detectives keep the story moving and along with empathy for the victim, we feel justice is served.

My first time reading a McCabe/Savage mystery, and I found it a good police procedural. A few parts went on too long, and over all, I think the book could have been shorter. I also felt part of the killer’s motive came out of the blue at the ending and would have liked to see foreshadowing to that effect. Part of the motive was obvious, but the other half felt dropped in as an afterthought.The characters of McCabe and Maggie were well developed. Having not read any of the previous books, I didn’t feel lost in this one. The author did an excellent job unfolding the story while dropping small references to past cases. Both Maggie and McCabe and likable characters. A solid read. I will likely try this author again.

It destroys her life, and 12 years later, she commits suicide by jumping off the bridge. The men who raped her start to die. Who is killing them?

I was very fortunate to receive this book in a "Goodreads" giveaway. This was the first time that I read a James Hayman book; and I am now a big fan! This book is a very compelling thriller with a few unexpected twists and turns. It is a journey with detectives McCabe and Savage, as they work to solve several murders connected to a brutal rape at a college frat party 12 years ago. It is fast moving with a surprise ending. I now want to read the rest of this author's books :-)

I read this book in a day. I couldn't put it down! The characters were believable and I could relate to the main character's pain and motivation. The ending with many twists and turns was terrific.

Loved it! Easy to read with lots of dialogue. For me it was hard to put down. Would love to read the rest in this series. Easy to guess how it ended but a good read.

I really liked the relationship between the two detectives. They seemed like real, flawed, but smart and hardworking individuals. However, I've read several books that begin with a tragic rape scene and I need a break!
