Acerca de esta escucha

A cop lies dying beneath the blistering Arizona sun - a local lawman who may well have become the next sheriff of Cochise County. The police brass claim that Andy Brady was dirty, and that his shooting was a suicide attempt. Joanna Brady, his devoted wife and mother of their nine-year-old daughter, knows a cover-up when she hears one...and murder when she sees it.

But her determined efforts to hunt down an assassin and clear her husband's name are placing Joanna and her surviving family in harm's way - because in the desert, the one thing more lethal than a rattler's bite...is the truth.

Since I was familiar with several of the Joanna Brady series, I enjoyed listening to the book that began the series. I enjoyed the book, but wouldn't want to listen to it a second time.

INTERESTING BUT NOT SPECIAL

I like the family element of the series. In Desert Heat specifically, you have a woman who doesn't know how how strong she is until her inner strength is put to the test by the murder of her husband, leaving he a single parent. She's discovering who she can count on and to what extent.

I love the Joanna Brady series thus far.

I liked the story and the characters. Can't wait to start the next book. The narrator was perfect.

Hooray for J.A. Jance

I liked the way the family managed the death of their loved one. I liked the way the aspirator died.

Great Read

This book is about love and courage. Even though it is a thriller at the heart of the story it also a love story too. JPF

The wonderful relationship that was portrayed between Joanna and Jennifer.

great story

I kept feeling as if I had read this book before - many of the pivotal scenes seem to have been "borrowed" from other books in this genre. Several critical plot points rely on hotels, hospitals, airlines, etc. revealing information about their customers. I had to check when the book was written (1993) because this is just not done. It may have happened occasionally in 1993 but I seriously doubt it was standard practice.

None of the characters were the least appealing or likeable to me. The main character - Joanna - was the best of the lot, but her mother and her daughter pushed me beyond the point of tolerance. The mother's conversion at the end, after continuing her badgering judgements when her son-in-law's death was fresh, was not credible.

The narrator was OK during the narrative sections f the book, but terrible at dialogue. The absolute worst was the daughter, Jenny, who sounded like a nasal whiny brat, no matter what she was talking about. In many instances the text described the tone of the character ("slowly," "in a hushed voice," "thoughtfully") but I do not think the narrator changed her characterization a single time. If she was unable to adapt to the book, she should have simply read it all as narrative, as other narrators have done successfully.

I will not be listening to other books by this narrator or this author.

Trite story, sub-par narrator
