Historia
In 1888, five gruesome murders shocked the civilized public. A bloodthirsty killer was on the loose in the slums of London. The world was on the lookout for Jack the Ripper. Scotland Yard never found their man - or so they said publicly. The police knew the killer's identity but concealed it to save the ruling class from embarrassment. The Escape of Jack the Ripper reveals how British elites manipulated the public to protect one of their own. Through meticulous research, Jonathan Hainsworth and Christine Ward-Agius have uncovered the killer's identity.

Revisado: 03-27-22
I had high hopes for this book. I’ve read several books about the Ripper and hoped this would be a good addition. The first3 or 4 chapters were completely devoted to give a detailed description of who was who and how they were related and very little else. I stopped listening and will pick it up at another time, I think. Wish there had been something to catch my ears to make me want to continue.

Once again, Susan May has written a great series guaranteed to keep you wanting more. Her stories and eerie enough to keep you totally involved with the characters and plots and make you think “what if?” I loved reading the prequel to The Troubles Keeper. Gives you a little background of Rorie Fines “awakening”. All the stories in this volume were marvelous listens. I’m afraid that if I mention each and every story in this book, I’d give way too many spoilers. Suffice it to say....yes....it’s a definite need to read! Open it up and fall right in!

Now saving her son is within her power, but there’s a twist she hadn’t figured. She can’t change or do anything differently because she’s become merely a passenger in her own body. Only one thing might save her son, but for that she’ll need to discover a simple truth before time runs out.

Historia
Patricia Campbell's life has never felt smaller. Her ambitious husband is too busy to give her a goodbye kiss in the morning, her kids have their own lives, her senile mother-in-law needs constant care, and she's always a step behind on thank-you notes and her endless list of chores. The one thing she has to look forward to is her book club, a close-knit group of Charleston women united by their love of true crime and paperback fiction. At these meetings they're as likely to talk about the Manson family as they are marriage, motherhood, and neighborhood gossip.

Revisado: 05-31-20
My real estate broker commented on this book on Facebook and I was hooked!! This book held my interest from the first sentence to the last. I listen on Audible on my way to work and I found myself volunteering to go to the store or taking the long way home to get a few more minutes of listening time!! I love listening to books written about the low country. I can walk down those streets and see the buildings, feel the sunshine(or in this case, the darkness) and fall into the story. Bah I Turpin did a fabulous job narrating this tale of vampires and southern belles! So, Bless your hearts... keep it up! It left things open for a sequel... any chance of that???

The best short stories ever!!
Revisado: 04-25-20
I’m not usually one to read short stories. I more the one to read a book with one story line and totally get absorbed in it. However...this short story collection was wonderful. Susan has a way to twist and turn words and thoughts into wonderful flights of fancy. I also loved her commentary, her Imagination Vault, at the end of each story. It gives some insight into the inspiration for each tale and kind of makes you go “hmmmm”. Her narrator, Hollis McCarthy has just the right inflections in her reading to catch and hold your attention and make every story a great experience. Hurray Susan... you’ve done it again!

Wow...can you imagine someone who can take your troubles away? Fabulous premise. Rorie was just your regular guy with a twist. I love the way Susan wove all the characters together so you felt like you knew them...and really wanted the best for them. The twists and turns, and there are several, kept me guessing how would it all work out throughout the book....bravo Susan!!! Awesome story! I definitely recommend this one.

This is the first book by Susan that I’ve had the pleasure to listen to on Audible. It caught my interest right away. Great story line. I listen to Audible on my 45 minute commute every day and this was one book that I wished I had a longer commute!! I even went out to my car at lunch to get just a few more minutes in.
Susan’s writing style is easy to listen to and the narrator did a great job to really bring the characters to life! Bravo!! I’m hooked. Looking forward to my book!

What happened to the narrator???
Revisado: 02-02-18
Would you listen to Stone of Tears again? Why?
I had trouble getting into this second book in the series. The narrator was painful to listen to....I thought, at first, that I had purchased the wrong book! Bring back the narrator from th first book!!! Please....
How did the narrator detract from the book?
His reading and inflection made it very hard to listen to. I am usually totally immersed in a Terry Goodkind book...but I had to stop...
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No
Any additional comments?
It’s hard listening to a series when they change the narrator back and forth. You get used to hearing each character with a certain voice and when the narrator is changes it is hard to follow. I will try another one in the series but with the original narrator.
