Sleep No More

The Lost Night Files, Book 1

De: Jayne Ann Krentz

Narrado por: Eva Kaminsky

New York Times bestselling author Jayne Ann Krentz returns with the first novel of the Lost Night Files, an exciting new romantic suspense trilogy about a night that changed three women forever—but that none of them can remember.

Seven months ago, Pallas Llewellyn, Talia March, and Amelia Rivers were strangers, until their fateful stay at the Lucent Springs Hotel. An earthquake and a fire partially destroyed the hotel, but the women have no memory of their time there. Now close friends, the three women co-host a podcast called the Lost Night Files, where they investigate cold cases and hope to connect with others who may have had a similar experience to theirs—an experience that has somehow enhanced the psychic abilities already present in each woman.

After receiving a tip for their podcast, Pallas travels to the small college town of Carnelian, California, to explore an abandoned asylum. Shaken by the dark energy she feels in the building, she is rushing out when she’s stopped by a dark figure—who turns out to be the women's mysterious tipster.

Ambrose Drake is certain he’s a witness to a murder, but without a body, everyone thinks he’s having delusions caused by extreme sleep deprivation. But Ambrose is positive something terrible happened at the Carnelian Sleep Institute the night he was there. Unable to find proof on his own, he approaches Pallas for help, only for her to realize that Ambrose, too, has a lost night that he can’t remember—one that may be connected to Pallas. Pallas and Ambrose conduct their investigation using the podcast as a cover, and while the townsfolk are eager to share what they know, it turns out there are others who are not so happy about their questions—and someone is willing to kill to keep the truth from coming out.

Another fun urban fantasy

Typical fare of author: good dialogue, characters you like, interesting but uncomplicated story. Like literary candy.

The story was excellent, the reader was not.

Enjoyed the new story line, although the characters were weaker than her normal characters. After chapter 12 I had to quit listening and just read the book. The narrator's interpretation of the book was really detracting from the story.

Poor writing or bad narration?

Performance was very distracting. Too often her clipped speech did not match the mood or dialogue. Also story had the feel of one of the author’s much earlier stories.

Great storyline

This storyline will capture your attention and pull you in. There are many twists and in the end all comes together. I love Jaynes writing.

Another enjoyable Jayne Ann Krentz book

Loved it! Jayne Ann Krentz is always a pleasure to read! She is consistently my top author.

Fast paced, mysterious romance with moments of humor

An interior designer-turned-podcaster and an investigator-turned-author team up to solve a murder while trying to figure out what happened to them when they lost time/memories in separate incidents that disrupted their lives and boosted their nascent psychic abilities. Fast paced, mysterious, with moments of humor and subtle references to the author’s historical Burning Cove series.

Podcast search for answers.

This is going to be a fun series to see develope.
I noticed the representation of current modern times .

Lost Night Files

Krentz delivers a great story with a touch of paranormal. The characters are well developed and likeable.

Creative Storyline

Krentz does not disappoint in this new series! I Can’t wait for the next two!!

Meh

Glad it was free because it wasn’t a great story. Lots of repeating, like the listener would forget from one chapter to the next.
