Absence of Faith

“I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.”

I found this book to be a little on the odd side. Usually you are left wondering who done it but with this book you know right from the beginning "who done it" but as the book goes on you find out why hes doing it.
I found it to be slow at points but overall it wasn't a bad book. I'm not sure I would recommend it to friends.

A fast listen

Memorable characters and a fast-moving plot make this audiobook impossible to stop listening to. I enjoyed the quotes to start each chapter and the mystery of how all the pieces would come together at the end. David W. Gordon does it again with this novel and is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors.

Not for me....

Although this was an okay story, it was not for me. It's clearly written by a man that does not have a high opinion of women. The book is a good mystery/thriller story that will draw you in if you can get past the fact that every female character in the book either crams her "DD's into a C cup" to lure in men, or is a gold digger, or loves threesomes, etc., and all have daddy issues, including the so-called heroine. The best part of the book was the narration. The narrator did a great job.
I was given this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.
