Be Buried in the Rain

De: Barbara Michaels

Narrado por: Barbara Rosenblat

Julie Newcomb has been called back to the birthplace of her worst memories, to be a companion to the one person she fears most. The truth lies somewhere on her grandmother's crumbling plantation, as real and terrifying as the two skeletons lying together in the swampy shadows of Deadman's Hollow.©1985 Barbara Michaels (P)1992 Recorded Books,LLC

Killer of a story...

I am only 12:15 mins into the story... I ABSOLUTELY HATE the narrator...she breaths after EVERY sentence. I bought the book it so I will listen I hate to waste a credit...

Story was ok but...

Turns out this was a romance book, not a mystery as such. I felt that author put more effort into making romance work out than solve the mystery. pleasant having both.

Great story

One of the best Barbara Michaels books. A great comfort story for summer. Wonderful Southern gothic story.

WOW!!!

I have always loved this story. THIS was AMAZING!!! EXCELLENT! Well worth every second of it!!!

Barbara and Barbara

Loved the book start to finish. Big fan of these two women. Will be looking for more.

Boring

I love Barbara Michaels/Elizabeth Peters, but this was a slog. The reader has no skin in the game because there are bones found and, then, nothing even remotely interesting until the very end, which is a pat explanation with a twist of the supernatural. Really surprised at how dull this one is. Usually Barbara M. nails it. Oh, well, it was free.

love this writer by all ber names

Great book..want more. She cant give us more but audible you can please. her ghost stores are perfect

One of the few five-star books

An enjoyable old-family-ties-that-bind-just-might-end-up-killing-you storyline that was fun to both read and listen to, but then as a kid, I also had a scary old grandmother afflicted by a stroke who lived in a cool scary old house so it was a bit nostalgic. The characters were brought to life by the talents of both author and narrator though at times the narrator seemed to be recalling a story very slowly.

I can't really peg this story as there was a touch of mystery, a touch of romance, a touch of humor, but I guess it mostly dealt with overcoming the past. The ending was a bit jumbled, but still overall a good listen. (The Audible photo suggests the story might be a bit gruesome, but it wasn't at all.)

So-So

My rating would have been lower had Barbara Rosenblat not been the reader. She is the best - Unfortunately, Barbara Michaels is not Nevada Barr or Elizabeth Peters.

Classic Barbara Michaels and classic Barbara Rosenblat

This is the era I live the best from Barbara Rosenblat and the era I love to read about.
