Too much self talk

Revisado: 08-22-17

This could have been a short story it was padded with a lot of boring boring self talk, perhaps the sheriff should try a new career. The story line had lots of gaps that didn't make sense and it was weak, the fact it was based around the Amish could have been interesting but it didn't hit the make. Too many mysteries now have the tortured main character reflecting on their past rather than on the mystery.

Better as a short story

Revisado: 07-25-17

By half way in I started to fast forward, the narrator is excellent but the story is far too long.

Really no-one else tried to unlock the box

Revisado: 07-18-17

A weak story with a bad plot, it just went on and on. Samantha Eggar's voice is too old for a young Lucy.

Started out okay and then fizzled out

Revisado: 07-18-17

I wouldn't recommend this book it was okay but the ending was lame. There were also loose ends and facts that went nowhere.

Don't bother

Revisado: 01-28-17

Having read the reviews I thought the story would be really interested with a twist. I found instead a boring story that just went on and on. The murder mystery is weak with a pathetic ending. Don’t bother with this book.

Surprised I enjoyed the story so much

Revisado: 01-28-17

I purchased the book, as I wanted some light reading, I almost gave up quarter of the way but as I had nothing else to listen to I kept going. So glad I did, the story is light with some funny episodes and I’m totalling surprised that in the end I enjoyed listening to the story. Great narration by Sue Pitcan, she knows how to tell a story.

What would the police force do without Tony Hill

Revisado: 11-18-16

What drew me to listening to an audio of Wire in the Blood was my love of the TV series starring Robson Green. I recently read one of Val Dermid’s books, which made me want to download more in the series. I hated the narrator and it took me some time to focus on the story, Saul Reichlin voice is too old and perhaps a little like he is doing a stage play; his female voices are meek and irritating. The story line in the beginning is a little too detailed however builds so you don't want to stop listening, however both in this book and the one I read it in somewhat fizzles out. However on saying that worth a listen and I will be listening to more in the series, unfortunately they appear to all be narrated by Saul Reichlin.

Really good story read by a wonderful narrator

Revisado: 11-12-16

I had listend to one other book of William Krueger which I thought was really ordinary, based on reviews of Ordinary Grace I decided to download it. I was not disappointed it was a coming of age story but not over sentimental, did remind a little of Stephen King's "stand by me". The characters are likeable and the story was brilliantly told by Rich Orlow, a good narrator can make of break a story. Would highly recommend Ordinary Grace, be warned you will cry.

Disappointing Story and Wooden Narration

Revisado: 10-18-16

This is the first Willian Krueger Book I have listened to the story line was really off the mark, full of holes and the narration was ordinary. David Chandler's women's voices were almost laughable. I listened to the story based on reviews, reading further other reviewers have suggested to try listening to Krueger's other books which I will do, hopefully not all are narrated by David Chandler.

Easy listening

Revisado: 10-04-16

I really enjoyed listening to this book the narrator was particular good. Didn't necessarily find it spooky but could easily picture the scenery as Elly Griffiths is a good story teller and doesn't do endless pages of unnecessary dialogue. Did however pick the murderer midway but the story held my attention to the end. Have now downloading the second book in the series and looking forward to listening to this story.
