Unbearable narration for a lame Nancy Drew story.

I’ve never rated a book this low before, but I felt very deceived about what kind of story it was going to be - but more than that, the narration was beyond awful, atrocious, unbearable and confusing.

Listen to the sample to get an idea of what I mean.

The main character— who also narrates the back story, uses an American, southern accent— BUT, it is evident she originally has a British accent AND, the two other main characters have a heavy Scottish accent and a man’s slight New York accent.

So, as she’s bouncing back and forth very ineffectively with all the accents in exaggerated cadences and pitches, it all muddles together unpleasantly and the result is the most irritating and unbearable blend of sounds. It was utterly confusing and annoying.

Regarding the story, I thought it would be a solid mystery-thriller. But no, it is not. It’s a bubble gum, Nancy Drew story that prematurely hints too much and too early as to how the story will unfold. It also reminds me of the Charlie’s Angels show/movie premise for some reason, making it even cornier.

I couldn’t finish the book after half-way to save my life, very disappointing, audibly awful and irritating. Not recommended - listen at your own discretion

The ending was ridiculous

It took entirely too long to have a non ending. It was vague and boring
