rich character

loved the plot! Great storytelling with Rich characters. I was very much vested in all the characters and loved the Paranormal aspect as well.

Very Preachy and Woke

Revisado: 04-28-23

I am a huge fan of Rachel Grant. Love her Hero and Heroine characters who are typically smart and strong, fighting together for justice. However, this story felt like I was being lectured to about sexual orientation, race and privilege. The last thing I want is to be lectured to when I am trying to escape the politics of today's headlines. For me, the underly "preachyness" took away from the story. It was a pass for me.

Heroine is annoying

Revisado: 01-22-22

I thought I would really enjoy these stories, but I cannot get over the fact that the heroine, London is not very bright. She is kidnapped and was threatened to be sold to an animal who would torture and maim her, yet she acted like a petulant child instead of doing her best to escape or to end her own life. Of course, Crew didn't go through with it, but she didn't know. London's behavior throughout the story made her look stupid instead of brave and strong. I bought the box set, but I won't be listening to the entire trilogy. I like Crew a lot more than I did London. It is not the worse book I've read or listened to, but it is definitely not memorable.

First Book by DK and will NOT be my last!

Revisado: 02-10-21

Great character development, including the dog. The story explores the good in humanity and our connection with animals and the evil in humans. I didn't know what to expect from DK, but he is masterful in developing deep characters and intricate story lines that draws you into his world. I did not want to leave as I fell in love with all the characters. I am hooked and am excited to get all his other books. The narrator was awesome as well. His voice fit the story. Sometimes you have great stories but poor narrators that spoil the book for you. Not so with Edoardo Ballerini. If you like dogs and a good story, you will LOVED this!

Whiny protagonist

Revisado: 10-10-20

I've listened to all 4 Ellise Sandburg books and I have to admit, I initially liked it a low, but after hearing all 4, I cannot get out of my mind who whiny the main character is. I thought she would improve as the series continued, but she got worse. Whiny, unhappy, and unable to self reflect to better herself. After a while, you wonder how she can be a great detective when she seems to be clueless in her personal life. I started to hope that her Partner David would find himself a hot girlfriend and get over Elise. His character develops nicely in the series and you have sympathy & empathy with him, wanting him to find happiness. It's still a good series, but you have to force yourself through the whiny parts!

Excellent!

Revisado: 09-30-20

I love murder mysteries/detective stories, but this is the first book that made me like the killer. I know, not a typical response, but the author really does an excellent job in developing the characters. I loved the way she weaved the two stories in this series into one satisfying story line. I highly recommend that you listen/read the first book in this series to get the full underlying story to appreciate this book. Excellent story telling! A must read/listen.

terrible narrator

Revisado: 09-18-18

The narrator really annoyed me. Her normal voice was perfectly fine but when she you was talking as the female lead, she sounded like a baby! It really took away from the story. I had a hard time listening to the entire book timer if that skipped many chapters a due to the baby voice. The book had a lot of potential but it fell short for me. I did not like the heroine very much as she came across as whiny and baby like.
