Angels Fall

De: Nora Roberts

Narrado por: Joyce Bean

Reece Gilmore has come a long way to see the stunning view below her. As the sole survivor of a brutal crime back East, she has been on the run, desperately fighting the nightmares and panic attacks that haunt her. She settles in Angel's Fist, Wyoming - temporarily, at least - and takes a job at a local diner.

Now she's hiked this mountain all by herself. It was glorious, she thinks, as she peers through her binoculars at the Snake River churning below. And then she sees the man and woman on the opposite bank. Arguing. Fighting. Suddenly, he's on top of her, his hands around her throat....

Enjoying a moment of solitude a bit farther down the trail is a gruff loner named Brody. But by the time Reece reaches him and brings him to the scene, the pair is gone. And when authorities comb the area where she saw the attack, they find nothing - no signs of struggle. No freshly turned earth. Not even a tire track.

No one in Angel's Fist seems to believe Reece. After all, she's a newcomer in town with a reputation for being jumpy and jittery - maybe even a little fragile. Maybe it's time to run again, to move on. But Reece knows there's a killer in Angel's Fist, even if Brody, despite his seeming impatience and desire to keep her at arm's length, is the only one willing to believe her.

When a series of menacing events makes it clear that someone wants her out of the way, Reece must put her trust in Brody - and herself - to find out if there is a killer in Angel's Fist before it's too late.

Classic Nora Roberts

I enjoyed this book it was well narrated and easy to listen to. I would recommend this book

One of my all time favorite audio books!

I go back to this one time and time again. A strong heroine that thinks she's broken. A hero that believes in her. It's the dialogue that makes them real.

my first Nora Robert's, pretty good.

I expected a sappy love story, was very surprised it was a mystery. I enjoyed it

Great Mystery

I never figured it out! what an amazing story! The narration was also amazingly well performed!

Angels fall

Kept me in suspense all through the book. Have been in that part of the country. Could picture the areas as I listened

The narration was very good

overall the story was good and the ending a surprise. Leading man was a jerk

Touching

I’ve been a fan of Nora Roberts ever since I read first time Hidden Riches, almost 20 years ago.
I have bought myself more than 20 books of hers but only recently discovered her on Audible.

Angels Fall is a staple book. A stand-alone mystery story that was also put to screen a while back.

It portrays a talented chef who had to start her life over in a secluded little town where she finds love, fortitude and peace in the presence of a stoic, brisk but carrying former reporter turned mystery writer.

As always, the plot is full of twists and turns and has you guessing the villain of the story but not enough to be sure of it, until it is revealed.

Joyce Bean’s performance is great. Not excellent, but great. She really has the voices distinctive enough for you to be sure who is speaking at any moment. She sometimes falls into a rut with the descriptive sections and misses the right intonation, but it was not frequent enough to be annoying.

All in all, I really enjoyed it.

entertaining but a bit predictable

The story was captivating. Even though many parts were predictable, it was still an enjoyable story and the performance was acceptable.

Excellent, as all Nora’s mysteries are

5 stars. I’m a real fan and, if you ever come to Chambersburg or invite me to Boonesboro, I’ll be there with bells on.

Good story line

Enjoyed the book ! Kept me engaged and guessing! Love the way Nora Roberts brings you in and keeps you interested!
