The terrible narrator!!! Awful

The story was great but the reading of the book is horrible!! I can’t even listen

Okay got a first book, just okay,not great

Didn’t like the high school locker room sex in the beginning, the reader did the main character voice pretty good but was terrible with all the other characters voices. Okay mystery plot but very transparent. Going to give the second book a chance to improve.

The reader’s voice for characters was nauseating

Reader’s voice for characters was distracting and ruined the story for me. I was hoping for a new series of books, but cannot.

Catchy and suspenseful

nothing at all. I enjoyed the story like and the constant punches of action throughout.

Worst narration EVER! Returning!

I tried for an hour to get past the stilted, boring narration, but had to give up. The plot never really developed in the hour or so that I made myself listen. I didn’t read anything in the reviews that stated there was so much dialog devoted to sexual scenes. However, what was so horrible was the switch to slow and low narration for any male character that spoke. How this novel received 4.4 stars by 6,688 people is totally beyond my comprehension! Who are these people that thought so highly of this completely moronic debut novel? Maybe they didn’t rate the audio version. I was so looking forward to a series set in the Keys as I’ve been there so often. I thought GREAT, 28 books in the series! Goodreads had high recommendations, too! So disappointed in the hour plus I wasted on the first book. In addition, I purchased the audio version for almost $10.00! Have submitted for a refund. I simply could not stand the unnecessary sex or the grade school type narration.
