good story and naration

story pulled me in right away and kept my interest throughout. naration was very good .

WHAT AN IMAGINATION!!!

Nothing beats a great imagination is a talented author. Tom Lowe takes the prize for sure. I have reviewed every book in this series so far. I'm actually listening to Book 8 right now...but I realized that I missed reviewing this book. I haven't been disappointed in the first 7 and don't expect to be disappointed in Book 8. The life of ALL the characters lies in the hands of Michael David Axtell. He's absolutely marvelous!!!! Up until I started this series, I had never heard his voice. But it *almost* makes me want to listen to a few science fiction novels...not my genre however. Because he was the chosen narrator for this series, it is a gift to us all.

Excellent suspense mystery!

Black River is the 6th novel in the 8 book Sean O'Brien mystery/thriller series by Tom Lowe. This is my 7th review of novels in the series. Sean O'Brien is a 40ish ex-Miami homicide cop who retired when his wife died of ovarian cancer. He is supposedly a commercial fisherman but his real work is as a private detective. This novel concerns murders related to US Civil War memorabilia. In Black River and other novels in the series author Tom Lowe does a great job of building suspense and folding in plot twists certain to surprise the listener. Narration is superb.

Great story. Amazing narration!

I really enjoyed the depth of this book's historical detail. Mostly, though, the narration is so good that I feel like these characters are truly enhanced by the different inflections and accents. I laugh out loud quite often, and look forward to the audio book. Thanks!

Black river

A very good book. Rebel secrets found out in modern day. The book has many mysteries that have to be solved in order to find a missing painting and the murderer.
