Clever twist

Revisado: 11-06-24

I liked the build up of the story. Truly a mystery hard to solve until the end. Kept me trying to figure out who was the killer. Author did well in not repeating himself with the back story. I’m ready for another by this author.

Repetition, repetition, repetition

Revisado: 08-23-24

The characters were so naive and the plot of the book was repeated over and over. The book was way too long. Really hard to finish listening and would not have if I hadn’t bought it.

Too long and drawn out, repetitive.

Revisado: 07-28-24

The female character was supposed to be a survivor growing up in a bad family and living on the street, but she was portrayed as being dumb and confused constantly ,The mafia family was also portrayed as confused and not very smart. The answer to every situation was to kill someone usually their own men. This series was really had to keep listening to. Won’t listen to another book by this author.

Don't dumb down your characters

Revisado: 05-09-24

This book could have been so good, however the repetitiveness ruined it. Once you map out the anxiety and problems you don't need to keep repeating them in every chapter, the reader will remember. Also, the characters were "highly trained", professional, smart deputy marshals so why would you write them doing things completely opposite of that repeatedly? First book was really good, but this one was too drawn out without reason.

Could have been better

Revisado: 04-04-24

I did not like the voices of what sounded like 2 different female narrators. Their attitudes did not fit the story nor go well with the male narrator.

Good listen

Revisado: 10-17-23

Easy to listen to, without tons of drama and the female is written as having common sense which is very refreshing.
Really enjoy Penny Reid books.

Five star rating, how?

Revisado: 08-20-22

I’m not sure if it was the narrators voice or the story, but this book came off as silly. So much dialog was repeated over and over to the point of being ridiculous. Totally confused at the five star rating.

Not a good male narrator.

Revisado: 05-05-22

The story of this book was really good. The storyline pulled you along just like it should. The only thing I didn’t like was the male narrator. He started out okay but as the book went along he was so whiny sounding and over feminine when reading the male parts. It really made it hard to finish the book.

Good story but drawn out.

Revisado: 10-30-21

The plot of this story was interesting. The characters were well defined. The narrator did a relatively good job. However, I felt that the story was drawn out. For it to have lasted as long as it did, it needed more ump/action. It lacked excitement. Something other than talking about the missing girls, talking about the upset towns people and the invasion of the cold wind blast needed to happen. It was easy for me to stop listening and restart later.

Very drawn out and nothing exciting

Revisado: 05-26-21

I am completely confused about the 4.4 rating this book has showing. This book was very drawn out. The author kept repeating supposed problems over and over and over (example: who to hire to work at the pub). The main character ranged from being really smart when discussing clues about the murder, to asking the most paranoid off the wall questions about everything else. She could not make up her mind about anything. There was NO excitement in this text, just drawn out discussion about who to hire to work at the pub, should the kitchen be fixed and who killed the man in the ravine.
Not worth the money unless you are looking for something to put you to sleep.
