Before my world came crashing down, I had it all. The successful career I dreamed of. The beautiful red-brick home where I could relax in front of the fire. The handsome, devoted husband whose blue eyes and charming smile always made me feel safe. As I call time of death, my voice is steady. My colleagues stand hushed around me, their eyes on me, confused, concerned.

Very Disappointing
Revisado: 04-03-23
Having had some medical training I was really looking forward to listening to this book. Unfortunately, I knew after the first chapter it was a lightweight, run of the mill ramble about a husband cheating on his wife and a "mystery" that is supposed to be exciting ensues. Supposedly she is a heart surgeon who can't figure out why her husband would always come home from work late smelling like fresh deodorant and old spice cologne! Seriously?? Medically so off and unrealistic. The reader who depicts the surgeon makes her come across as a shy, sit in the corner, whining, emotional and immature woman. Not even close to the personality of a heart surgeon!
This book is an example of why I will never join Audible. 1. A five minute clip is not enough to know if you can put up with the reader for the entire book, especially when different characters are involved 2. there's no out. Once you buy it is yours unless you are a high ranking member of their "club". You are stuck with an expensive purchase that you can't get out of. A rip off that's not for me!

Rob and Anna have arrived for their holiday in the Caribbean. Kim and Owen, a friendly couple they met in the harbour, offer to charter their beautiful boat to take them to a distant island. Rob dreams of lazy afternoons spent snorkeling. Anna looks forward to the silence of days at sea. But why is Owen so secretive? Why does Kim keep a knife zipped into her moneybelt? Maybe Anna and Rob shouldn’t trust strangers...

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
This book drags on and on and on and NOTHING HAPPENS! I listened to 3 hours and gave up! I can't imagine anyone enjoying it!
Has After the Storm turned you off from other books in this genre?
Yes
How did the narrator detract from the book?
By changing her voice to try to accommodate the other characters; very fakey
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Disappointment in the lack of story; anger at the last and lost credit of a gift and pretty done with Audible for not allowing me to return it.
Any additional comments?
This company is definitely not up to Amazon standards!
