Resumen del Editor

When college professor Ellie McKay walks into the Maverick Bar in Farmington, New Mexico, late one evening, she plans to get drunk, not engaged. But within 30 minutes, she’s met cowboy Al Robison, he’s proposed to her, and she’s accepted. Al only knows that Ellie is attractive, vulnerable, and single; he doesn’t know that she has been on the run for weeks from a sociopath who killed her surgeon boyfriend in Pennsylvania and raped and tortured her. Reeling from the ordeal and deeply scarred emotionally and physically, Ellie flees first to Paris, where she seeks refuge in the bottle. Then, coming to her senses, she returns to Pittsburgh to resume her life and her career, believing she will be safe there. When that proves untrue, she takes to the road, no longer caring much what happens to her. Ellie’s escape route leads her to Santa Fe and then north to Farmington, where Al seems the safest bet. When she says yes to Al’s proposal, she knows only that he is a local rancher. She doesn’t know about Al’s own dark past, and she doesn’t tell him that her heart belongs to Doug Hansen, the detective who originally investigated the case.

Ending Was Unfinished

Disappointing to see the heroine marry Al who may or not be alive and then move on with seemingly no regrets to Hanson. Had I known the ending would be so poorly written I would not have wasted my time.

Needs a new narrator

The story was intriguing, great twists, but the narrator was horrible. She has this staccato like cadence that was continually annoying... unfortunate choice for a good story.

Did not like narration

Enjoyed the story, could have been edited a bit, narration was off, mans voice was stilted.

The. Narration. Was. Too. Staccato.

That’s it. The narrator read the book in this jittery almost mechanical way.
The story theme was interesting and I hung in there to find out who the killer was, but the ending seemed rushed and incomplete.
Glad it was an included book.

Fog of Dead Souls

The time shift threw me at first, but it didn't take me long to get what was happening. Even by the end though, I didn't understand the "why" of the killer. And maybe that is just something that I like to know. The story did wrap up at the end, but I wanted to know about what happened with Al. I liked it enough to listen all the way through even though the end was not everything I had hoped for. I am glad I listened to it.

Great till the end

You get to know and like the characters, (for hours) and then it just ends soooo quickly. We don't get to know what happened to several people!! It felt like the author ran out of ink or got tired or something. Disappointing ending.

Great story/ horrible narration

The story gripped me from the beginning!!! If it weren’t for that I would had quit this book right away. The narration was so bad that I thought maybe it was a done by computer (like Siri or Alexa). Then, I started googling the narrator and the book. Part of me thought maybe the ending will reveal that they are all robots. Glad I stuck with it because the story was great. Lots of twists and turns. It would make a great movie. I actually feel bad for the author because of the narration. Hope this helps others get through.

Good story, took a bit to get into!

This overall is a good story. It took a bit of time for me to get into, & found the author didn’t do a lot to explain current & past situations, but once you get it, you get it. The narrator has a pleasant voice, & would do better just reading. The accents (the southern ones that were out of place, mainly), & the abrupt, broken fluctuation on certain character’s words got on my nerves at times. But overall, an interesting thriller. A good listen between deeper stories, for good entertainment!

horrible narration

I really, REALLY wanted to see this through. But the narration was horrible. She speaks with paused mid-sentence, as if there's a period or comma where it does t belong. I even sped up the book to see if it would help. first book I ever quit over a narrator. Really a shame for the author, because I wanted to see where this story was going.

I kept listening

Having listened to over 400 books I have to say this narrator irritated me the most. I never knew which character I was listening to and the way she distinguished voices was to have the characters talk more slowly, in an unnatural way that no one speaks -so very slow! The story was interesting enough that I continued listening hoping that I would get used to the voices. That didn't happen, but I made it through the book and actually enjoyed it some.
