Disappointing new narrator,

Revisado: 02-19-24

I love the Thursday Murder gang but I am deeply missing Lesley Manning. I get the feeling that Fiona Shaw is recording this in a room with a sleeping toddler! Much whispering. Perhaps it is her way of having the conversation stand out, but it is annoying! I heard Richard Osman sing her praises so she must be a friend or something but she has ruined my enjoyment of this book

The one thing I have not mentioned is how the author treats Alzheimer's Disease. One of the supporting characters suffers with Alzheimer's and Mr. Osman shows the progression with each book. It is done with grace but adds a level of sadness to the humor which I appreciate more and more. This novel adds many more characters that I can see showing up in future books. I am ready for them - but I do hope Lesley Manning returns. If not, I hope Fiona quits whispering!!

I have fallen in love with this series!

The Man Who Died Twice builds on the Thursday Murder Club. We learn more about each character. The humor is even more sharp and made me laugh out loud. Since I know Steven Spielberg has optioned the first one for a movie, I find myself casting characters. This story delves more into Elizabeth's background in MI5 or 6. (i believe I heard both) If I am in trouble, I hope the Thursday Murder Club is there to solve the mystery!!

What a wonderful introduction to the people of Cooper’s Chase

Revisado: 01-25-24

I love the characters. Set in a retirement village, it showed what a full life these people have had and continue to have. The twists in the plot were wonderful. The natural occurring comedy was fabulous and I’m looking forward to the second book.

Love a book with Lucas and Virgil working together

Revisado: 09-04-23

I love these characters! This book was great with a sad twist that had me truly sad. I agree that it was nice to have some of the deranged killers from past books. The bad guys were scary enough and certainly deadly. I also greatly appreciated John Sandford's notes at the end of the book!!

Great to have another Sunny Randall novel

Revisado: 09-04-23

I very much enjoyed "Bad Influence". The story kept me guessing about the characters. Robert B. Parker gave us amazing characters and Alison Gaylin has taken these characters and spun an excellent tale!

Not a fan of Diesel but it was okay

Revisado: 01-27-22

I'm just not a fan of Diesel and Cousin Wolf. That said it's good to know Stephanie has new furniture and I enjoyed her dad adding more to the story.

Not my favorite

Revisado: 09-05-18

I always hear “Audible hope you enjoyed this...”. I didn’t. Jesse Stone has always been a tortured character. This ending was just too sad.

Lucas Davenport takes on Washington

Revisado: 07-29-18

I always like spending time with Lucas Davenport. I have missed the BCA cohorts so it was good to hear from Del, Virgil Flowers and others. I am becoming more and more fond of Bob and Ray. They are a great foil for Lucas and I love that they get perks from working with Lucas ("We get to fly business class") Taryn Grant was the villain who got away in an earlier Prey book and she is back as an evil Senator. I always like the twists and turns that John Sandford puts into the books. I look forward to the next visit with Lucas and his world.

I still love Spenser!

Revisado: 07-29-18

I would first like to tell whoever wrote the Publisher's Summary that perhaps they should listen to the book. If fans were waiting for Hawk - he doesn't show up! Vinnie, however, is in fine form as, of course, is Spenser. I found the story interesting and fun to follow. I am waiting for the next Spenser book.

Short and a little blah.

Revisado: 07-29-18

I am feeling like this book was phoned in. It is short and the side stories seemed to take over more than the story involving Lindsey. I'm wondering if Mr. Patterson and Ms. Paetro are becoming bored or tired of the Women's Murder Club?
