Story good animal abuse description horrific

The storyline was good. I enjoy the main character’s boyfriend Chris how supportive he is to Emily. Emily I started out liking as the main character but as the story progressed I found myself thinking she’s not a very proactive detective. Her work mate Jason is picking up on more clues and so is her boyfriend while she’s waiting for things to fall into place. I feel like the main villain’s wife did more detective work. Overall the story was enjoyable but I had to skip through some of the overly descriptive scenes of animal torture. I look forward to reading another book with Emily in Cherry Stone and see how her character develops.

Kept me guessing

Another great book from Greg Olsen! I am now a big fan and I am so happy he has so many books to read.

This is my third one and second in this series. If you are a murder, mystery fan, you’ll love this series!

Heart of Ice

I enjoyed this thriller/mystery. I loved all the characters the author described them so I could picture them in my mind. I couldn’t wait to see how it concluded.

But what else could he do?

(As posted in Goodreads)
This is the second in the series, and its as thrilling and involving as the first. I still love the characters, and the suspense is tangible. The reader feels a little sorry for the villain, who didn't deserve the horrible hand he was dealt, but seeing the inventions and possibilities written by great writers like this one (Gregg Olsen) is very mind opening. One feels bad for the villain even though it's only a fiction story, but at the same time, one realizes that there really are real live people who were dealt equally bad hands, and society cannot deal with it.
Great book

Great

Loved this book. Liked the characters, narrator was very good. I highly recommend this series.

Very graphic

I had to fast forward through the detailed description of animal abuse. It was too graphic for me. Other than that, it was a good book.

Emily Kenyon gets my vote!

Loved it! Gregg Olsen never fails! Great characters, great stories, and Karen Peakes is an awesome performer!!

LOVE THIS SERIES! HOPE IT CONTINUES!

This is a great although short series. Emily Kenyon is an interesting character and intriguing to follow. Karen Peakes is a good narrator. I've already listened to the so called "3rd Book" in the series and it doesn't belong here. Book 3 is a great stand alone story so don't miss it. I hope Gregg Olsen sees fit to continue with the Emily Kenyon Thriller Series. It's a good one. I like the length of the books for my credit.

Good story line

The story had a lot of twists and turns. It did keep you guessing quite a bit. The characters were well written. However, I didn’t really like the details of all of the animal, killings, and other things that he did. Sorry, that might’ve been a oops for someone that has not read the book. I realize a serial killer has the ability to do horrific things but, I wish that the writer could have written them in a less graphic way for me. Overall, I did enjoy the book.

The great story line

The reader was very good and I enjoyed the story very much overall. Can’t wait for the next book
