A Matter of Millions

De: Anna Katherine Green

Narrado por: P J Morgan

Anna Katharine Green, the "mother of the detective novel", was a prolific American author who wrote well-plotted, legally accurate tales. The sixth installment in the Mr. Gryce series, this is a stand-alone mystery concerning a series of mistaken identities and one very large sum of money.

Several girls, all bearing the name "Jenny Rogers", are being killed in the city of New York. In the middle of it, there are two suspects: a famous painter and a visiting stranger, who also happen to bear, in their turn, identical names. Behind it all, the dying wishes of a man and a nefarious plot to lay claim to a matter of millions.

Thriller

The description was the first thing that had me hooked, but when I listened to it it did not grab me as I wanted to. This is more due to how the book is written than anything. However, I did find it intriguing and I liked the surprise towards the end. I enjoyed it more then I expected.

a great classic

though it's a classic it's not a book I've read before and I enjoyed it very much it was very interesting and very very well told the narrator was good and overall it was a wonderful listen

Awesome Historical Suspense

I was hooked by the idea of this book and only found out after listening to it that it’s actually a classic from the 1800’s. Writing style wise, this much is apparent, but I have to say that the action and suspense had me on the edge of my seat like something Ruth Ware would’ve written.

I didn’t see the ending coming, and that rarely happens for me in thrillers anymore. Even though it was a little wordy, I still very much enjoyed the story. Plus, the smooth narration made it an easy listen.

A Matter of Millions

This book was good,as long as you could keep track of what was going on.Girls with the name Jenny Rogers are being 'found' and some die,some don't.It's a twisted tale. Narrated nicely by P.J. Morgan.I was given this book by the narrator,author or publisher free for an honest review.

Didn't see that coming!

I thoroughly enjoyed the narration of this book. Its about a man on his deathbed that wants to leave a woman with certain requisites 3 million dollars since he has no relatives that are alive. He wants to leave this money to someone that reminds him of a woman he loved earlier but her life was cut short.

In the end I did not see what had actually happened coming at all. I will be listening to this one a second time for sure! I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
