Wonderful Listen

Great story, spent the entire day listening to it. I have many of Irene Hannon books on paper, but these days I enjoy recorded books more.

I don’t think that senseless violence is necessary to build the suspense

Well narrated book filled with violence and sick people who I think just give others ideas. Just because the genre is romantic suspense, why do the women always have to be the ones who get victimized in these books? I appreciate that they are portrayed as very strong women but still they are always the victims of such violence and sick behavior. As these books go this was well written, but I have no desire to ever listen to it again. I did appreciate that the good guys weren’t portrayed as stupid in order to drive the plot.

great story, boring narrator

I love this author and I liked this story. Was disappointed in narration. It put me to sleep. Could not tell the difference between characters.

Pleasantly Surprised

Would you listen to Deadly Pursuit again? Why?

Yes. It was a great story!

What did you like best about this story?

The suspense was good, and I loved the beginning relationship between the characters--very believable. I also enjoyed that it was clean without being too cheesy or preachy.

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

Better emotional inflection. There was no difference between when the characters were conversing normally or in the midst of an emotional crisis. It was also hard sometimes to tell the difference between some of the characters and it seemed the narrator changed his voices, and used the wrong voice for the wrong character which just added confusion.

A Complete Package

If you are looking for suspense, romance, and a bit of action, this book had it all. Overall it was a really good book. I found it hard to put the book down. Well worth the credit and in my opinion this is the best book from Irene Hannon yet.
