great book!

This book was great. The story was captivating. While listening, you know you are missing pieces of the puzzle, but can't be sure what exactly it is. I still don't feel like we have it all. I can't wait to listen to the next one in hopes of having some of those gaps filled in.
As for the narration, it was ok. I have listened to both better and worse. the thing that bothered me most was the American accents being off and that they weren't consistent.

Great story & reading

Thank you. A really good storyline and excellent reading. I hope the next one is as good.

Meh

The narrator's American accents were abysmal. Really took me out of the story. The story itself was so/so

Keep reading

Someone else said this but keep reading if you’re on the fence. It’s worth it. And — the voice actress is quite talented! Don’t worry - her accents improve remarkably over the next two books

With that cliffhanger... I had to keep reading!

At first, I thought this book was going to have massive plot holes... boy was I wrong! I loved the wording and narrative style, so I listened on and I am so glad I did.

Those questions I had at the start of the book were the last thing from plot holes, they were part of a much larger plot, the heart of the entire Blackwood Security Series. You have to wait to learn those burning questions like "What is with the ex-husband?" or "if she's such a bad ass, why did she run?", it all becomes clear in the later books. So, put a hold on those larger questions, the wait is worth it, and enjoy the story as it goes along. I cannot stop listening!

I also must note that Sarah Kempton is such a talented voice actress, I am completely blown away by her!
