Great story

Revisado: 03-30-24

Good audio book with fast pace - easy to listen to. Preferred it to the other ones by same author

Boring and unbelievable drivel

Revisado: 02-22-23

Poor quality writing. Like listening to an interminable monologue by a middle aged soccer mom from NJ who is so needy and unfulfilled.

OK - nothing special

Revisado: 02-04-23

Very irritating narrator - whiny tone for the main character - Erica Foster. And completely preposterous final scene where she goes alone to meet with the suspected serial killer at 8 PM. Do the police in south London never do things in pairs? I’d be surprised if that was a permitted practice.

Not bad for a first book

Revisado: 09-23-22

Audio was super weird with cheap sound props periodically slicing through the background - a rain forest track when they were standing outside the cabin, an echo when they were standing in an underpass, etc. Some of the banging doors were jarring and shocked me as I was driving. Very unsettling and made it hard to hear the dialogue at times. Plot was interesting - a kidnap to keep someone out of town until their window to oppose the sale of a business expires - but it seemed unrealistic to the point of ridiculousness that a child would be kidnapped and that the private investigating firm would agree not to contact the police, even though they had no experience of dealing with such matters. Still, I let that slide and gave the book a chance. Overall, it was not a bad first attempt. I will definitely read the second book in the series.

Long but brilliant

Revisado: 03-10-20

Terrific take in Shakespeare’s Macbeth - set in the 1970s Scotland - perhaps Glasgow? The reader was outstanding and really captured the mood, and I thought it was Jo Nesbø’s best writing. Really excellent book. Would highly recommend.

Ended before it should have ended

Revisado: 11-05-19

Story just finished before all the loose ends were tied up. Very disappointing.

I guess the author did this intentionally to make you but the next book.

Pretentious self entitled drivel

Revisado: 03-10-19

One of the most self indulgent and pretentious books I’ve read in a long time. The writing style is so precious - and the story line is boring - no insights or original thoughts and observations about this woman’s life. Haven’t read as weak a book in a long time.

Mediocre writing - unbelievable plot

Revisado: 08-13-17

The writing was forced - it felt like you were reading an SAT passage where the writer had to use a bunch of set vocabulary - and the basic premise - a guy who goes to jail for a murder he didn't commit and who later in life meets a student who decides to crack the case and exonerate him - seemed unoriginal and totally unbelievable to me. Like Scooby Doo, only a less charming version. So I would not recommend this audio book.
