Portman Creameries Cases

Black Paradise Circus, Book 1

De: CS Patra

Narrado por: Joan DuKore

The women of Portman's Creamery are back and ready to take on their toughest case yet. Follow them as they enter the Black Paradise Circus.

When children start disappearing throughout the country, the only clue that ties them together is the Black Paradise Circus. The girls go to investigate, yet come across very little evidence. Irene, frustrated with the police's handling of the case, decided to go behind the law's back. It also means going behind the deal they made with their friend, Detective Chase Owen.

Bit by bit, they begin to learn to the story of the circus. They find more with their secret investigation. But how long can they keep this up? And how far can they go before it's too late?

Circus setting,...

What did you like best about Portman Creameries Cases? What did you like least?

The characters act in very unlikely ways investigating. The police ask a group of women to infiltrate a mysterious circus where children have been disappearing in the Circus' travels. hmmm... Then information uncovered is withheld from police.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

The setting and plot fell down. The narration was good. Conversation was stilted. This isn't Toby Tyler or The Greatest Show on Earth.

Have you listened to any of Joan DuKore’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I haven't so I wont compare something I don't have a reference of.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

No.

Any additional comments?

This was sent for review. I feel let down.

Light Mystery

that leaves you hanging at the end. If you want to wrap up the mystery started in this listen, you must download the next book. I'm used to authors wrapping up the main mystery in each book of a series and then giving a teaser to let you know that the overarching case will be solved at the end of the series.

The buildup is flat for this book and it seems like you are revisiting the same scenes over and over again and getting the same pieces of information multiple times. It didn't keep my interest and I won't be moving on to the next installment to find out who is killing the children.

The narration was decent but not spectacular. I would listen to another narration by Joan Dukore.

I received this book for free through Audiobook Boom! in exchange for an honest review.

Black Paradise Circus bk 1

This was a mystery with way too many characters.I found it repetitive and a bit irritating.There is a circus in town,kids go missing and circus actors get hurt and then replaced.A cop hires the girls from the ice cream store...and their friends to investigate.We never find out what happened to the kids...there is a book 2.
I was given this book for an honest review.

Black Paradise Circus, Book 1

I really liked the cast of characters assembled in this book. The ladies from the creamery who just happen to help the police solve crimes. I couldn't stop listening, but all of a suddden it was over and we have a cliffhanger. I hope I won't have to wait too long for the next installment.






The narration was well done, the characters were well portrayed.
