Comraich

The Jessamine Series, Book 2

De: Shani Struthers

Narrado por: Sheila Dearden

An extreme land breeds extreme emotions.

Comraich - Gaelic for Sanctuary - that's what this ancient fortress of a house in the Highlands of Scotland has offered its generations, a haven from the world beyond.

The nesting instinct kicking in, a pregnant Jessamin decides that Comraich, which she shares with her partner Fionnlagh Maccaillin, needs refreshing. Getting to work in one of the spare bedrooms she makes a startling discovery, one that pulls her into a world of the intense and disturbing passions of others that have been here before.

Jessamin has to decide.

Will delving deeper into Comraich's history bring hope and peace to this troubled house or return her to a darkness she's only recently left behind?

Not the same narrator as in the 1st book

It was the narrator in the first book that made the book so amazing. I was very disappointed she didn't do the second one. I was really looking forward to it 😞

Irritating heroine

I am usually a fan of Shani Struthers work. This book however displays an annoying and weak heroine, jessamine, who demonstrates repetitive behavior which endangers herself and other people repeatedly. Sheila deardon js again lovely to listen to.

Haunting and Enchanting

I started listening to Comraich without any insight into the book, the characters and not having read or listened to book one-Jessamine.

I thoroughly enjoyed the entirety of the story. The characters are all flawed but deserving of empathy on some level at times. I might have enjoyed a bit more ghostly intrigue but there was just enough to keep it believable. The descriptions are fabulous and pull you into the story which I absolutely love as a reader/listener.

I've read quite a few of Struthers' books and this one is certainly one of my favorites and I will be listening and reading more.
