Beneath Winter Sand

By: Vickie McKeehan

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

A brother who disappeared. A mystery worth solving. A love worth finding. Hannah Summers lost her innocence the day she came home from school and found police cars in front of her house. Her parents are dead, her loss is deep, but its more than that—her baby brother, Micah, is missing. Vowing to find Micah no matter what she has to do or how long she has to search, Hannah ends up in Pelican Pointe with more questions than answers. She’s holding on to a shred of hope that Micah is still alive. While Hannah isn’t looking for love, one resident has other ideas. Caleb Jennings has his own demons to deal with, but he wants more than anything to help Hannah find her brother. Little do they know they’re about to embark on a life-changing course, a course that will end her twenty-year long search and solve a mystery of what happened the day her parents died. Along the way, they’ll uncover a former politician’s scandalous life, and reveal secrets long buried. The tenth book in the award-winning Pelican Pointe Series

Good story with strong interesting characters

I love the way the ghost brings the people together via hints of what needs to be done. The virtual narration is great and I’m devouring the series.

Beneath Winter Sand

This is a great story that kept my interest. I’m not a fan of virtual voice though which took away from the characters.

Had a difficult time finishing the book.

Not a fan of virtual voice. Inflection and pronunciation was off, often making it difficult to follow the flow of conversation in the story. Then there is the story….I lived in the Turlock area and still have family there, which had me committed to finish the book, and is the only reason I did. The character development was weak, and not really reflective how people respond to struggle. The protagonist is categorized as a narcissistic sociopath, but the character development lacks depth and does not come across as such in the dialogue. The storyline is very tidy, with a “Leave it to Beaver” wholesomeness that doesn’t fit the plot. I had a difficult time finishing the book. Probably won’t be listening to this author again, and definitely will not listen to virtual voice.
