Publisher's Summary

A cold-blooded kidnapper has been playing a twisted game with a terrified Minnesota town. Now a respected member of the community stands accused of a startling act of evil. But when a second boy disappears, a frightened public demands to know: Have the police caught the wrong man? Is the nightmare continuing...or just beginning?

Prosecutor Ellen North believes she’s building a case against a guilty man - and that he has an accomplice in the shadows. As she prepares for the trial of her career, Ellen suddenly finds herself swept into a cruel contest of twisted wits, a dark game of life and death...with an evil mind as guilty as sin.

    "Meh."

    I normally like a good thriller, but this was all over the place and I was more looking forward to getting it over with than finding out how it ends.

    Awful story, hard to follow characters. Borring

    I love to read, but I can never find the time. Audible allows me to "read" while I'm doing other things.

    "Rewind, Rewind,Rewind"
    This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

    Not sure, I couldn't get very far in the book.


    What was most disappointing about Tami Hoag’s story?

    I just loved her other 3 books that I read. For some reason I could not get into this book. I found my self rewinding it over and over.


    What didn’t you like about Jennifer VanDyck’s performance?

    I can't say if it was her performance or if the book was not interesting to me.

    I'm an omnivore when it comes to books - I'll read anything, but I especially like mysteries and historical fiction - and I fall all over myself when the two genres combine! I also love sci-fi, high adventure, romance (sometimes), crime & detection, horror...well, like I said. Omnivore.

    Story
    "Bit of a Drag"
    What would have made Guilty as Sin better?

    Terser plot, more realistic portrayal of the investigation and trial, less repetition of dull and uninteresting conversations between main character and her creepy love interest. The main character is a prosecutor and the case should be a slam dunk, but then a bad boyfriend from her former life takes over the defense and it's like she just loses all will and ability to prosecute the case. There isn't much suspense, the pace is too slow and there are no serious developments until 3/4 of the way through the book. Basically you could slog through "Night Sins" then skip to the last 50 pages of "Guilty as Sin" without missing anything.


    What was most disappointing about Tami Hoag’s story?

    Everything.


    Did the narration match the pace of the story?

    Yes. The narrator did an OK job with what she had, but the text was just incredibly lame.


    If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Guilty as Sin?

    Most of them, leaving less than 100 pages of meaningful story.

    "Reading this was like pulling teeth"

    This particular story was a good idea but so very poorly executed. Repetitive phrases, way too much detail on unimportant items. Sexual harassment written as if it were flirting dialogue.
    I have enjoyed Tami Hoag books before, but now I'm not sure if I will even attempt another Hoag book.

    Story
    "Great listen, but something is missing..."
    Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

    Definitely some suspenseful material


    Have you listened to any of Jennifer VanDyck’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    Yes, Solid!


    Any additional comments?

    Make sure you listen to Night Sins first! Great characters and great build up for the end, once the mystery is revealed there is not enough details about all that the "bad guys" did. I'm not one to rewrite an authors book but this ones ending did let me down a bit. still highly recommend it! But I feel like there is a lot left unresolved with these great characters.

    she is able to bring the characters to life

    I enjoyed the entire book start to finish! It was very entertaining. I enjoy books that aren't super easy to guess and this one was not.
