I loved the book. The reader was a little breathy and dramatic but still good.

I've enjoyed this author before. Looking forward to his next book. Suspenseful. Reading performance was excellent.

Insensitive and unrealistic

Revisado: 10-20-19

I like Lisa Gardner a lot. I’ve probably read all her books and enjoyed them. This book is just plain dumb. I’m nearly done and just not sure I can finish it. The main character is an abused woman who has only had sex with her abuser husband. Violent and abusive sex. In one week, she is having orgasmic sex with a very messed up man who is supposed to be helping her. She’s telling him she loves him. She’s already told him she doesn’t know any type of sex except what she’s had with her husband. Now, this story is not about her sex life. The story is not well developed. It is filled with gratuitous sex scenes. I do not hate sex in a book. I just want a decent story. Her characters are not developed in this story. They have no dimensions. In addition to that, it is disrespectful to abused people. It minimizes the affect of abuse and evil on a human. I can’t believe she wrote this insensitive book.

I read this out of order

Revisado: 02-26-19

I didn't find this book the least bit believable. I don't think a 17 year old in the '50s would have those experiences. I don't think they would have been given those freedoms. I struggled to finish this book. I usually love Burke. This time, not so much. Could the fact that I read the book out of order (this was book was #3, which I read first) had an impact? Maybe. I'm going to start back on #1 but admit that I'm dreading it. Will Patton was wonderful as usual. Early on, his very recognizable voice was distracting, but as he developed the characters I stopped listening to him and started listening to the characters.

Wow!

I read/listen a lot. Over the years, eventually, I’ve tired of some of my favorite writer’s styles. I never tire of Tami Hoag. Her books are never formulaic. Her characters are well developed. She leaves no loose ends. She’s one of my all time favorites. This is a great book. I couldn’t put it down. The performance was excellent also.

Probably good for someone interested in subject.

Revisado: 02-12-19

Well recorded with variety of voices and sound effects. The performances were great. I found that I wasn’t interested in the subjects. It was drawn out. If you are a Victorian period history buff, you would probably like it.

What's the point?

Revisado: 02-09-19

I loved John Grisham up to this point. This is the worst of his books, in my opinion. This is really three different books. The first was okay if somewhat too descriptive. The second was grueling and enlightening to the point that I have to read more about the subject. The third was awful. Not because it didn't end the way I would have liked, but because the entire point of the book was not revealed until the last few lines. It did not fit the lengthy book or deserve the waste of so many hours listening to it. I understand it must be kept in mind the period of time in which it took place and the area of the country. I understand that it could have happened (and probably has). I just thought it was the construction of the story and how it was told. Michael Beck's performance was okay but not outstanding. This could also be colored by the fact that I didn't enjoy the story.

I felt it was pointless and not a bit memorable.

Revisado: 02-09-19

I listened to entire story. I didn't enjoy it at all. The performance was okay. It was well written. I can't complain about that. Maybe the issue is that it was of no interest to me.
