Predictable

Revisado: 07-04-24

Perfect book to be made into a Hallmark movie. Bland, dull, predictable, and lots of undeveloped characters and plot lines.

Excellent series

Revisado: 09-11-23

The entire Sean Duffy series is excellent. I rarely give five stars, but the whole series gets fives across the board. The combination of the writing plus the narration make me wish there was a six star option. Start at the beginning and read them all. You won’t regret it.

Disappointing

Revisado: 07-07-23

Not that "thrilling" and not helped by a lackluster narrator. Sigh. Really wanted to love it.

Not a thriller

Revisado: 07-03-23

I kept waiting for the "thriller" part of the story and never got it. I found it a bit dull.

Tired

Revisado: 06-12-23

Rushed ending, overdramatic narrator, characters a bit too earnest and perfect. Liked earlier ones in the series better. Not sure if writing has changed or if I
have.

Predictable storyline made worse with narration

Revisado: 03-11-22

I don't understand why so many raved about this book. The "whodunnit" was more of a "yep, he did it. Saw it in the first few chapters". And the main character does so many stupid things that she might as well go into the basement in a teenage horror flick. I finished it in the hope it would somehow get interesting, but I really thought about discarding it with about four hours to go, and I wish I had. The narrator seem to think that folks in the midwest speak like southerners. Farmers all sound like country hicks, right? And there's a strange "lightness" to the main character's voice when she's in the midst of mortal danger. All in all, I can't recommend this audio book at all.

It’s a no for me.

Revisado: 10-20-21

I really wanted to like it as I love the Tom Thorne series, but I just didn’t. Despite the fact that there were two murders, there was no little drama and no buildup. There wasn’t even much of a plot. It was mostly the musings inside the head of someone with mental illness, which isn’t my idea of a good read. I finished it, but I wish I hadn’t wasted the time.

Why did I finish it???

Revisado: 10-15-20

Painful to get through. Sounds like it was written by a 12-year-old with the expected knowledge of relationships and pregnancy loss. Trite. Cliched. Irritating.

terrible narrator

Revisado: 06-28-20

I read one of the later Inspector Rebus series and enjoyed it so I wanted to go back and start at the beginning of the series. I'll head back to the library, because the same narrator does several of the audiobooks and I thought he sounded like an overdramatic thespian wanna-be in a comedy skit. It really ruined the book for me.

Melodrama

Revisado: 05-22-20

I made it all the way through this book, but considered stopping many times. I wish I had. It never got better. A melodramatic romance with unbelievable characters trying to be a serious mystery. The story wasn't helped by the narrator, who over-enunciated everything to the effect of losing any believability the dialogue might have had.
