    About this audiobook

    I become whatever they want. Whatever they need.

    Seattle Chief of Detectives Mort Grant is still reeling from losing his daughter-again. When Allie first walked back into his life, breaking years of silence, he could hardly believe his luck. And after hearing her story, Mort tried to do everything in his power to keep her safe. The only person he trusted with Allie's life was The Fixer. But, for the first time, The Fixer let him down.

    Now Mort has been called in on a gruesome murder case: a beautiful young woman found in a ravine, her body riddled with stab wounds. Within twenty-four hours, the police uncover a snuff film depicting her murder, the killer's face always just out of shot. When a second body and video are discovered, Mort knows this is no ordinary case.

    From a chain of sleazy payday loan shops to the dark underworld of the sex-slave trade, Mort's chasing a twisted menace to hell and back. But he's not the only one. Once again, The Fixer is on the hunt-and she's desperate to make things right.

      Violent, smutty, brutal, trashy. I loved! Characters develop across the series. Well plotted and forth out.
    • 4/5
      I received a free ARC from Net Galley.

      This was another great installment in The Fixer series. I was happy to see Mort and Lydia working together again. I also enjoyed the parts of the book told from Allie's point of view (Mort's daughter). The murder mystery was interesting, and the action was fast moving. It was a hard topic to read about, but I enjoyed the writing and thought the author did a nice job. I will definitely look for more in this series.

      Fixed in Blood by T. E. Woods is a very highly recommended 4th book in the Justice series. Mort Grant, Chief of Detectives, is on the case when a young woman is found dead in Seattle and discovered to be the victim of a sick individual making a snuff film. When a second young woman is found dead and it is determined that her murder was also filmed, there is an obvious connection between the two women. The two victims are connected to a chain of payday loan shops called Rite Now. Psychologist Lydia Corriger, the Fixer, has seen two patients with connections to Rite Now loans, so, naturally, her path crosses Mort's during his investigation. Mort and Lydia still have unresolved issues from when she tried to protect Allie, Mort's daughter. Can they set their issues aside and work together to solve the brutal murders? And is it time for The Fixer to return to work and make things right? What about Mort's daughter, Allie? Could she be involved?

      Fixed in Blood continues the well written, fast-paced series by T. E. Woods. Woods keeps the tension high as she slowly reveals more clues uncovered by the investigation. I was going to rate this fourth book four stars, because I think readers new to the series and the characters really need to read the previous books for more background, but Fixed in Blood is just too good to dock it a star. The investigation has plenty of false leads and the twist in this one is a huge surprise. The Fixer/Mort Grant series is one of my favorites.

      It is always my luck that when I find a new series I like the first book I read is always in the middle of the series. That's what happened with Fixed in Blood. I wanted to read this book because it sounded interesting so I requested and received a copy of it from the publisher, Random House/ Alibi publication, and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Although some back information was given, I feel I missed quite a bit by starting with book 4. The characters were a bit confusing in the first few chapters, but that was my fault, certainly not the author's. Once I figured who every one was, the book flowed and was an enjoyable read. It held my interest until the very end and I can't wait for the next book. While I am waiting tho I am going to go back and read the first books. This author is well worth reading.

      I loved this book! This was the second book I have read by this author and was very impressed. I enjoyed the characters and the plot twists and turns. This is the fourth book in a series, but stands well on it's own. After reading I went and bought the first three. :-)

      In the previous story, Mort Grant asked the Fixer to protect his daughter, but his daughter didn’t want protection and their friendship floundered. This time Mort is investigating the murder of two women whose deaths show up as snuff films on the Internet. When a patient of Lydia(aka the Fixer) goes missing, she asks Mort for help.I just love the Fixer stories because you never know where and how they will develop. I found the author’s portrayal of not only Mort and Lydia’s relationship engaging, but that of Mort’s daughter adds a little zing to the suspense. It’s not only a fast-paced, action-filled suspense story, it’s also very entertaining. Looking forward to the next installment.

      Thanks NetGalley for sending me a copy of this book to read for my honest review. I loved this series, I've not had the opportunity to read one before but I'll sure start. I liked the way the the author wrote this so you don't really have to start from the beginning of the series without feeling totally lost. Granted, after reading this one you'll want to start from the beginning.Mort has a couple of disturbing homicides on his hands in Seattle. They are similar in many ways. These murders also involves Vice, while they were going doing their job they ran across something that may or may not tie into these homicides. This brings Mort and Lydia together again because one of her patients disappears into thin air. Lydia receives a call from her lost patient but it's through her answering service so she doesn't get to talk to her, but she does start at once to track her down. She has extremely sophisticated software more so than even the police and she doesn't have to wait on warrants. So she goes to Mort with this information and it weaves you in and out of some different scenarios. I loved the way the author has the ability to keep you on one trail than yanks you somewhere else. Meanwhile, Mort is still hoping to get good news from his daughter Allie, who was kidnapped by the Russian Mobster, who is a monster. It seems they may have joined forces and it's pulling Mort down farther in regards to ever getting his daughter back. This is a very, very fast paced read and I truly enjoyed it and I think any crime fiction reader will love it as well.

      This is the second Fixer book I have read and I am not holding my breath for the next one. I can't explain without spoilers but I think that one of the important scenarios in the book is too implausible. The "depraved mind" in the blurb would not have behaved like this AND like that. And one person was too old to behave so like a tiny child. Sorry I can't write anything more descriptive but if I did I would give the whole thing away.Bottom line is that I don't think very much of this book and do not recommend it.I received a review copy of "Fixed in Blood" by T.E. Wood (Random House – Alibi) through NetGalley.com.

      FIXED IN BLOOD continues the story of psychologist Lydia Corriger as she returns to her life once more. Occasionally, she would assist Mort Grant, as he came to terms with his family to help solve some police cases. Now estranged, the two have gone their separate ways until two separate cases bring them together once more. In his latest case, Mort is looking for a killer whose been murdering young girls, filming it then posting the video online so people can pay to see it. At the same time Lydia is attempting to locate a patient who has just recently turned up missing. While following a lead, she accidentally runs into Mort and once again the two begin working together to solve the case. Meanwhile, Morts' daughter Allie, has been living in London and decided to send some presents to her nieces. Of course, the family wants nothing to do with her. Knowing this, Allie has begun to thrive in the new life she has made for herself. Even though, they want nothing to do with her, Allie manages to help both Lydia and Mort in ways they never imagined solve their cases. In this Justice story, the author has kept the story line going without allowing the reader to loose interest in the characters. In the end the murderer is complete surprise, as things take turns you never expect.

      Fixed in Blood by T.W Woods is a 2015 Random House/ Alibi publication. I was provided a copy of this book by the publisher and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Finally! It's been a long wait between books and I have been dying to know what would become of the relationship between Mort and Lydia, which ended on a very sour note in the last installment. As the story opens we find things have not gotten better between the two, but when a young mother is found murdered and the bodies keep piling up, Mort and Lydia find themselves once more working on a disturbing murder case. How did Lydia get involved ? When one of her patients calls in obvious distress and promptly disappears, she does a little investigating of her own and runs right into Mort in the process. So, for Auld Lang Syne the two are back together again working to find a murderer, and hopefully Lydia can refrain from sliding off the wagon, so to speak. And of course we will get an update on Allie and it's not a positive update, as she has gone from bad to worse, causing Mort and his son great distress. This series is one my favorites. I love the dark themes and Lydia is always a unique character study, and is an interesting parallel to Mort. Allie is out of total control now having completely given herself over to evil, drawing yet another interesting parallel between these two women. One of which is pure sociopath and the other well... I'm not really sure how to define Lydia, and the two are connected by Mort. Snuff films, something we have all come to believe is really a urban legend, seems to be given some credence with this story as young women are forced into prostitution to pay off debts, then found murdered, then for kick and giggles a recording of the murders surfaces. It is of utmost urgency that Mort find this sick killer, never in his wildest dreams thinking he could somehow be connected to the case in a personal way. This installment was worth the long wait. There are hairpin turns, huge and shocking developments, very atmospheric, and a truly twisted story. This series has everything a good thriller should have with a psychological angle that sucks you in and keeps you entrenched in the drama as much as you are in the crime solving element. I love that the main protagonist, Lydia, has this calm professional exterior but hides an impulse that sets her apart, making her character border on the anti-hero side of things. “The Fixer” is most assuredly controversial, but I can't help but cheer for her and I even understand her brand of justice, even if I might not actually condone it. I was happy to see Mort and Lydia working together as a team again, putting their issues in the past. I have a feeling Mort is really going to need Lydia now as more details leak about about Allie. But, I know for sure I can't wait for the next book to come out.. I hope the wait isn't too long though....hint, hint. 4.5 stars
