"My favorite yet!"
Amazing story, well paced and suspenseful, and the best narrator around! The only problem with Dunning is we don't get enough new books!
"Must Read Legal Mystery"
The story has psychological depth and a tight plot. Carofiglio has a good understanding of both men and women, ethical dilemmas, and the law. People that like Dona Leon or Rex Stout will love this writer.
"Great New Meditation Series"
Her program has worked so well for me after years as a yoyo-dieter, always hungry, always wanting, always overweight, always on a new diet.
Our bodies DO talk to us (well, not if you are waiting for an actual vocal chorded 'Hi, this is your body!" They are very good at telling us when to eat, when we are full, and what to eat -- what our bodies are craving. We never listen! This program gets you in touch with that and does so in a compassionate non-judgemental way. I dropped to a comfortable 130 and stayed there for years, not straying (maybe up or down a pound or two) and eating whatever I wanted but only when i was hungry -- not to be social, not because I was bored, not because my boyfriend dumped me (okay maybe ice cream then . . . but I KNEW what I was doing and so it didn't go on for more than a night.) I went from always wanting all the forbidden foods to allowing myself to have them but only when i craved them, which frankly, became less and less as I listened to my body. My body actually craves many things I was not aware I liked -- eggs, cantaloup (hated cuz it was a diet food) and salads! It doesn't feel good on diet sodas (actually gives me headaches), or some types of sugars (corn syrup gives me a stomachache.)
Also, this is not about any one kind of eating issue, despite what some have said. It works just as well for the yoyo-dieter as it does for the anorexic. I have done the program for years and it is amazing.
I have to say that those who wrote about her voice? WHAAAAA? I expected some crazy voice. She is well-modulated and just fine. Inducts a bit of a meditative atmosphere.
Buying the ones I have already read to share with our family and buying the new one too. I recommend!

"This is a good intro but . . ."
I think that the longer versions are better if you are serious about any of the eating issues. I didn't waste a credit but bought it -- and so it is fine.

"great beginning"
This was a compelling audio book, and I listen while doing finish work and so it has to be compelling enough for me to pay attention! There was a lot of groundwork so that you could actually understand the workings of fire investigation, which I would compelling, but others have bemoaned. If i follow this character (and i will) then I want to understand why THEY are so good. Great visual novel! Love the character Tilly, and -sigh- Anna Fields did her well,RIP. I want to say mroe but do not want to spoil -- buy and enjoy!
"An early Dunning"
Dunning is one of our favorite authors. This book is one of his early works, and the storyline is great, but he belabors the tension in some of the scenes, so not flawless. Would still highly recommend!
"Dunning is the Best!"
Amazing story, well paced and suspenseful, and the best narrator around! The only problem with Dunning is we don't get enough new books!
"Almost stopped listening . . . GLAD I didn't!"
The very beginning of the book is very depressing, and I am not into prison stories, so thought that this was not going to be a good fit for me. Because it was Grisham, I kept going. It isn't a prison story. It is a good who-dun-it.
This was not a page-turner, but I also could not stop listening (and had to several times). I was astounded by the twists, and realized I had been given clues that I had not caught.
Good reader, very good for this part.
"NOTHING LIKE ZEN ON THE TELE"
We were introduced to this author though the BBC, and that Zen is such an unusual character, not typical, moral in his own way, sincere, with a backbone, and very clever. THIS IS NOT THAT ZEN. It is much more police-corrupt-lazy cop, and so it is a huge disappointment. I forced myself through 1 1/2 hours, then let go and went on. Possibly I will give it another try when I am not thinking it is like the BBC series, WHICH IS EXCELLENT, but I doubt it.
