Historia
All Hamish Macbeth wants is a quiet life in his peaceful home in the Highland village of Lochdubh. But when his newly-assigned constable arrives, he presents Hamish with a surprise and a secret. Getting to the bottom of the secret becomes the least of Hamish’s problems when he meets a family who have a score to settle with a sinister man who has mysteriously gone missing. Discovering a murdered woman’s body puts further pressure on Hamish, especially when it becomes clear that the murdered woman and the missing man are linked.

Dare I say I’m enjoying RW Green’s writing more than dear MC’s ? Well, yes actually! RW’s writing has more depth and character development and engages the heart more in my opinion. I liked the story very much and look forward to the next one.

The BEST John Picket book yet!!!
Revisado: 09-10-23
I so enjoyed this book and all the humor and twists and turns. I’ve enjoyed most all of the Picket books but this one by far stands out. It’s a good plot and kept me wanting more. The narrator is simply FABULOUS!!!

Historia
Georgiana Bridgerton isn’t against the idea of marriage. She’d just thought she’d have some say in the matter.

Enter option number three.... As the fourth son of an earl, Nicholas Rokesby is prepared to chart his own course. But when he discovers that Georgie Bridgerton - his literal girl next door - is facing ruin, he knows what he must do.

Not the author’s best. The book is okay but it’s one of the first in the whole saga. Narrator is fabulous as always!

Historia
In elegant and often hilarious prose, Kunstler depicts our nation's evolution from the Pilgrim settlements to the modern auto suburb in all its ghastliness. The Geography of Nowhere tallies up the huge economic, social, and spiritual costs that America is paying for its car-crazed lifestyle. It is also a wake-up call for citizens to reinvent the places where we live and work, to build communities that are once again worthy of our affection. Kunstler proposes that by reviving civic art and civic life, we will rediscover public virtue and a new vision of the common good.

Very in-depth and Extremely well researched and explained. Narrator a little sing-song-y but okay. I wish there was more info on what one can do to change this trajectory of development but it gives great examples of who’s doing it right and well

Historia
October 1942. Jo Hardy, a 22-year-old ferry pilot, is delivering a Supermarine Spitfire—the fastest fighter aircraft in the world—to Biggin Hill Aerodrome, when she realizes someone is shooting at her aircraft from the ground. Returning to the location on foot, she finds an American serviceman in a barn, bound and gagged. She rescues the man, who is handed over to the American military police; it quickly emerges that he is considered a suspect in the disappearance of a fellow soldier who is missing.

I was completely absorbed in the story. I’ve read all of the Masie Dobb’s books, I think this is my favorite. Orlagh Cassidy’s performance is absolutely wonderful she really complements the writing. I now miss listening to this story. I appreciate the depth of feeling and awareness this author has.

Revisado: 01-10-22
A bunch of banter that’s forced and not very funny and stories about getting drunk. I like their acting in the series - but not this! I really enjoyed the forward though.

Historia
Three perplexing puzzles - and three inimitable Wimsey solutions - told with wit, humor, and suspense. Narrator Ian Carmichael, the quintessential Lord Peter, provides great entertainment with his talented performance of these three stories. In "Striding Folly", a frightening dream provides a haunting premonition. A house numbered 13 is in a street of even numbers, and a dead man was never alive in "The Haunted Policeman." And "Talboys" sees Lord Peter's own children accused of theft.

An absolute must read!!
Revisado: 12-06-19
An absolute must read if you care about our democracy and how Russia has, and is, deeply corrupting our political process. It is not a conspiracy theory!
Plus it’s just interesting to hear/read this clearly presented back story of Russian influence in our elections.
This book is a big “Heads-Up” for America.

Along with the property, they have inherited some worthless bric-a-brac, including a collection of antique books....

Hugh Frazer’s narration is Brilliant
Revisado: 10-12-19
The narrator is absolutely fantastic. I especially enjoy hearing his little old English ladies singing old songs.
The story is so so to good, not excellent, but good, not Christie’s best. Hugh Frazer’s reading makes it enjoyable and cozy. His voice has so much warmth, sensitivity and gentleness. And I enjoy the characters of Tommy and Tuppence very much.

I love the Lord Peter Whimsy books narrated by Ian Carmichael, so much so that I didn’t think anyone else would do the books justice. However, Mark Meadow’s narration is beyond excellent and makes the book a very entertaining listen!
