Her Last Mistake

Detective Gina Harte, Book 6

De: Carla Kovach

Narrado por: Alison Campbell

Dressed in a sage green bridesmaid dress, and smiling for pictures, Holly is the happiest she’s ever been. Hours later, Holly is dead.

People love to hate Holly Long. Smart, beautiful, and a woman who men find it hard to say no to, she’s the town’s most gossiped-about resident.

Now Holly’s body lies in her hotel room, strangled at her best friend’s wedding party. And the gossip has stopped, because nobody wants to look like they did it.

When police search Holly’s immaculate apartment, amongst her stylish furnishings and expensive jewellery, they discover a different side to Holly. Orderly and precise, she wasn’t the chaotic party girl everyone thought her to be. In fact, Holly was a planner, and her next plan was to come out and tell her biggest secret - something she had been hiding for months, something that had the potential to ruin the lives of more than one wedding guest.

There are plenty of people who might have wanted to kill Holly, but only one who has finally made good on their promise.

A crime thriller with an ending you will never see coming, this is the latest gripping novel from best-selling author Carla Kovach. If you like Angela Marsons, Cara Hunter, and Clare Mackintosh, you’ll love Her Last Mistake.

Finished in a day... I couldn't put it down!

Exciting story with a great narrator! This series always leaves me anticipating the next adventure for Gina Harte!

Mehhh

The novels are getting more and more far fetched. Triple murders in the same small town with the same characters is starting to get repetitive. The author is trying too hard. Keeping things simple would make for a better novel.

Where Do Writers Get Ideas for this Stuff?

Intriguing story from the very beginning. Nauseating surprised ending. Excruciating, what abuse the victims experienced. The narrator is excellent in differentiating among the characters. Her pacing of what she reads adds to the drama and suspense. It also made this listener anxious about what would next occur. At times, I stopped listening because it was simply enough and hard to continue. Of course I picked it up later because I had to know the whole story. I enjoy this series!

Worth a listen; I’ve heard better.

Another British whodunnit kept my attention, though there were parts where the plot slowed down and dragged a bit here and there. Author Carla Kovach brings forth an unusual murder mystery. Narrator Alison Campbell? Well, she did a proficient job. Worth a credit? I am happy to have gotten this one during an Audible sale at $3+. Perhaps it was me. As my editor, dear friend and mentor wisely told me in 1979, “If everyone liked the same things, the world would indeed be a boring one.” RIP Dan Di Leo

Excellent

Oh, Gina! Tormented by years of domestic abuse and its aftermath still. She throws herself into her work and her relationship with her daughter seems to suffer. But she’s a tenacious detective and gets stuff done.

She and the team are called to a wedding reception where a bridesmaid has been murdered. Things get worse and we’re brought along on a race to find the killer(s?) before another friend can be harmed.

There are plenty of suspects and I was sure I had it figured out. Wrong! I love books like this.

I’m glad we get the old gang back on Gina’s team. Will Gina keep rejecting the obvious attraction between her and Briggs? The next book should reveal that.

I have read (listened to actually) all the Gina Harte series and each book is fantastic. Carla Kovach is one of my automatic pre-order authors. Narrator, Alison Campbell, does a great job.

Contains spoilers

I normally love this author, however the ending of this one was pretty disappointing. The killer is who? Exactly — you basically meet them in the last two chapters. Does not add much to Gina’s story so I would skip if I could do it again.

❤

Loved it. Starting her series from book one today. Great for taking my mind off walking, which allows me to walk more miles.

Love this series!

I really love this author. I have listened to all the books in the series I could find and thoroughly enjoyed them all. if you love thrillers, varying points of view, and solving crimes while continuing with the story of the main characters throughout, this is for you!

Weak for the author

The person/people responsible for the murders weren't even part of the main story. Not even woven into it.
