Loved this book

Revisado: 07-17-23

I loved the characters , narrator and especially the tours. I liked how the author took us on tours of the areas and wove in facts with supposition about mysteries.

Hard to see this a Grainger book

Revisado: 01-27-23

First, the story was not the best, the car chase lasted so long that I skipped ahead and I didn't like the narrator. I think the intent was to show Lane as a tough, no nonsense person and the written dialogue would have done that....I disliked the way the narrator read the dialogue. Maybe I got spoiled by the other Grainger series and this one is a dud or maybe future books in this series will be better. I think getting a new narrator might be a good step toward that.

Great Listern

I had trouble with the narrator at first, but once I let go and went with the flow at his pace, everything clicked.

Liked it but struggled at times

Revisado: 01-05-23

Really like the narration and thought The characters were really well developed. The intensely descriptive mutilation and other description of really bizarre things turned my stomach so I skipped over those periods. Overall worth it me for otherwise interesting story with great lead characters and the amazing Robert Glenister narrating. See him in British series Hustle with Adrian Lester ....its a good show and he is great.

Not for Me

Revisado: 01-01-23

Couldn't finish this. Too slow and didn't like the narrator especially when she switched to male voices.

Narrator Not the Best

Revisado: 12-30-22

I really like most of the main characters and the story line is good but frequently when speaking for the women her voice is too high pitched and annoying. When speaking for males or when narrating what male or female characters are thinking, the narration is good. Overall I like the books but it was hard to get pass this narration issue.

Narration made me do it

Revisado: 05-25-22

The story might have turned out to be interesting but I just couldn't get past the narrators whispery, sing song style of speaking. I admit I heard her style of speaking/narrating in the sample but thought the story would be so good, I would be able to tolerate it.

Interestingly, when speaking as the cantankerous older Marva, the narrator was fairly easy to listen to, but speaking as the character Lucy Bloom it was impossible for me bear. Also interchanges between Lucy and anyone other than Marva set my teeth on edge. It seemed the narrator was trying show the intended humor in the story through her sing song, matter-of-fact intonation rather than just letting the words/story show the humor.

I might get a Kindle or paper copy of this book to read myself. In the future, I will not even consider a book narrated by Xe Sands. She will join a short list of narrators I just can't listen to.

Could have been shorter

Revisado: 12-21-21

The last few chapters were not necessary. The round and round about who killed the child took way to long and ,to me didn't add anything.

Great Cozy Mystery - Loved the narrator

Revisado: 11-04-21

Great cozy mystery. I always know I will love Ms. Rosenblat's performance. She is one of the best narrators.
