Engaging characters

Nice intro to Padre Island and the Port Aransas area. Nicely plotted with two main plots intertwined. I’m waiting anxiously for book 4 to see where the subplot goes.

I enjoy reading what Doug is up to next. Fun locations and additional characters.

Loved the story!
Narrator is a bit slow, but that’s what the speed button is for-love audiobooks.

Best yet in the Fletcher series!

This was a great listen! The story and characters kept me engaged from beginning to end. I can’t wait for the next book to come out!
