Intense!! Well written, well performed.

Revisado: 01-29-22

The narration is well suited to the material, which is dark and intense. There’s a “dead man walking” feel to it, in terms of looking without flinching at the brutality of violent crime, and how it effects everyone around it. Really good listen!

Should have been a more exciting listen

Revisado: 12-01-21

The story itself is good, but MLP read it in a fairly flat tone, like she was reading to someone rather than being the voice of the characters. It took a lot of zing out of the otherwise good storyline.

Intense and gripping, insightful

Revisado: 08-17-21

Really important listen. PH and company deliver a series of stories that bring the plight of the families left behind after violent death into sharp focus. I don’t know if there is such a thing as closure, but surely these people deserve some answers. Very well done, with great sensitivity. Instead of glorifying the men who commit these crimes, the focus here is on the families, and the lives lost.

Did not see that coming!

Quick paced, great narration. When the surprise came, I was so engrossed in the story it initially confused me. You’ll see what I mean

heart wrenching, engrossing story

Revisado: 02-12-20

This story is relevant now more than ever. Following one woman's path into madness, it captured my attention, and even though there was never any question as to who did it, I kept hoping there would be a different outcome because I came to have sympathy for the main character. I loved her therapist, who was an excellent clinician but also portrayed as a human being. Her growing attachment to her client, who most view as a villain, is something that happens from time to time in the helping professions. Emotionally insightful, helped in no small part by the excellent narration! highly recommend!

Ridiculous

Revisado: 08-24-19

As a practicing therapist myself, I was so put off by the behavior of the main character that I could barely continue listening. The lack of boundaries and decent judgement are hard to find entertaining. The Dr's own pathology as well as the absurdity of his over involvement in his cases does not, in my opinion, make for good fiction. I didn't finish the last story, I was so uninterested by the end.

Too much personal history, boring narration

Revisado: 08-24-19

Having watched the fantastic series, I wanted to listen to the book again, because I didn't recall much about it. NOW i remember why! Almost the entire first 3 hours are about John Douglas. No offense, but I found the level of detail to be self indulgent and not terribly interesting. The narration is slow and pedantic. I have also listened to The Killer Across the Table, narrated by the actor who portrays the character based on Douglas in the Mindhunter series. There is overlap between the two books, yet the difference in style and pace is such that I would listen to the newer book again in a heartbeat, and with this book, once I heard the narrator carry on in his pontificating voice, I just couldn't keep going. I think I would have preferred to read this one.

Didn't see the end coming!

Revisado: 05-06-19

really enjoyed this listen. I sympathized with Hen, but also could appreciate the law enforcement take on her credibility, which made for great conflict. The narration was really good! Great story, it hung together well. great pacing

Felt a little flat....

Revisado: 05-06-19

I am a huge Sanford fan, but I thought something was missing from this story. I liked it, but perhaps I missed his interactions with his family. There was very little of Weather, and even less of Letty. there were a couple of key moments that got swept under the rug, instead of giving the listener a view into his personal relationships. The bad guys just weren't that interesting.

Boring narration. Boring production.

Revisado: 03-20-19

This could be a very compelling production- great story. Narrative style was like having someone who wasn’t really interested in the story you the newspaper. There was no emotional variety in the narrator’s voice. Second audible original that has been really poorly written and produced.
