I might not finish it.
Revisado: 05-06-21
I thought this series would be promising, but right at the beginning when the landlady was introduced, Mrs. Garnet from British West Africa, and the narrator uses an approximation of a West Indian accent for the character, I was put off. How disrespectful to take care to differentiate accents from different postcodes of The UK, but can’t be bothered to figure out that populations that live more than 8,000 miles apart don’t sound the same. Ignorance about places where Black and brown people are in the majority is not acceptable.

West Indian accent was an affront
Revisado: 03-14-21
I couldn’t tell if the West Indian accents were written badly or done badly, but it pained me to listen to it - could not finish the book.

Good premise, disappointing execution
Revisado: 07-07-18
The narrator was good enough, but the writing was poor. The author would probably do well at a pub quiz in history and crime categories, but the book is littered with juvenile similies, clumsily-conveyed trivia and flat, lack-luster characters. I find myself, in turns, irritated by it and apathetic about it. I will swerve this author in future.

Just 'okay'.
Revisado: 02-04-18
an American should have edited the story as too many UKisms kept popping up - it's a little jarring. Plot and development were okay, not terribly original. Character development, again, was just adequate. Meh. The voice actor did what he could with what he was given, though some of the voices were ennervating. i am normally quite fond of Stuart MacBride's stuff, so I won't let this deter me.

Good premise, mediocre writing and performance.
the author's descriptions are weak there is a marked overuse of typical expressions which suck the power out of the words. Also, there is a problem writing the women's characters. They are bland and lack distinct personalities.

I was ready to like this book and couldn't do it. The characters were dull and unrelatable. They were too many of them to give them any real distinct personalities. I suffered through the first several chapters with nothing to dig my teeth into in terms of a plot. I gave up and will be returning the book.

Historia
Anna Moder has just witnessed a shooting, seen her car pulverized, and rescued a wounded stranger - only to discover he's really a werewolf. And by her recent standards, things are actually looking up. Lycanthropes don't faze Anna. Doctoring a wolf pack outside Grundy, Alaska, is the closest thing to home life she's known in years. But hitching a ride to Anchorage with long-absent pack member Caleb Graham - that's a risk. Part of her itches to whack his nose with a newspaper. The rest is trying unsuccessfully to keep her own paws off every delicious inch of him.

Old Agatha Treadway baked her own bread, canned her own vegetables - and died of botulism in her very own kitchen. Accident, says Dr. Druffitt. Murder, says neighbor Janet Wadman. And says it again when she finds the doctor dead, too. Detective Inspector Madoc Rhys, of the royal Canadian Mounted Police, agrees. But who's the killer...? The town miser, who wants the one thing only Mrs. Treadway could have given him? The miser's son who's panting for the doctor's daughter? Widow Druffitt, who's holding secret meetings with unlikely people? The hired girl who listens at keyholes? The hired man who hides in haylofts?

This particular download is basically an advertisement for the program. I did also download the first and second parts of the real program and those are good, but I'd skip this if I were you - it just takes up space.
