Although there is no way I will ever read one of the books and picture Katie as Constance Wu.įinally I’ve finished Only the Dead novel by Jack Carr. ![]() If you like the book(s), you will also enjoy his podcast, and of course the Terminal List TV show, which is great. To sum up why this author and this book are so great after reading it I’m left with the thought that if I could sit down and have a conversation with one living person, Jack Carr would be at the very top of my list.
