The Darkest Garden

Brannon House, Book 3

De: Stacy Claflin

Narrado por: Tina Wolstencroft

How many secrets can one house hide?

Kenzi Brannon has always dreaded going down to the dark basement of the old Brannon house she grew up in. Now an adult, she's returned home to find her apprehension has intensified. She avoids that locked door and the secrets beyond in hope that ignoring the problem will keep long-forgotten horrors buried.

A neighbor's obsession with her house and history has rekindled Kenzi's old fears. And reconnecting with someone from her past may force her to face what she's been running from her entire life.

And that might not be the worst of it.

The garden her family is restoring could conceal something far more terrifying than anything inside the house. Something that could rip her newly found family apart.

Some people say the truth will set you free. Kenzi can't help but feel that it will destroy everything.

More relatives surface

Kenzie continues hunting for her sister. The Brannon family gets even bigger and stranger. So many suppressed memories, secrets, lies and strange past events in the Brannon house. Could the rumors of the torture basement be true? Does Ember find out who her father is? I wish more time was spent developing the characters, back story, etc. rather than the day to day activities of the family. What a strange job Kenzie has...is she an escort or something? I liked finding out more about the house, family and it's past. You never know what's buried in a garden. I still don't like the narrator at all.

Terrible Editing

I liked the general storyline, but the writing is so overdone, editing was subpar. If it had been edited properly, this three book series could have been one, at best. There are more holes in these books than swiss cheese. It could have been a good book had someone else edited it, reigned in the over descriptions, ridiculous twists, and gotten a narrator that didn't sound like a teen and had some range. For me, this was a train wreck that I needed to finish. It got more ridiculous and outrageous with each book. The first one was free, and I should have known then, that this wasn't going to end well. Just don't. This Author needs more experience, better editor's, and do more research. Do not recommend. I've never rated a book this low.

Please get a new narrator

The story is decent but the narrator’s voice is annoying. Kenzie is annoying as well.. never thinking before reacting. It’s a struggle to listen to
