Death on the Boardwalk

Myrtle Beach Mystery

De: Caleb Wygal

Narrado por: Thomas Gloom

When death arrives on recently widowed bookstore owner Clark Thomas' backdoor, he gets drawn into the investigation. What he discovers changes his life.

The Myrtle Beach Boardwalk is normally an idyllic place until the body of a local businesswoman and environmentalist gets dumped by the back door of his shop. Clark finds himself in a unique position to investigate the crime. But should he?

When it comes to murder, something else drives him he doesn't want to admit. As he launches his own search for the killer, Clark comes across a variety of colorful Boardwalk inhabitants who might have had reason to kill an otherwise beloved person. Can he do it and start putting his wife's death behind him in the process, or will it open up a fresh wound?

Like the storyline

Not liking the narrator first of all trying to do southern accents and second his portrayal of the cops and detectives is not the best. Like the storyline. Lived in Myrtle for many years and love recognizing so many locations.

terrific listen

being a part time resident of myrtle and loving the shore, this series is fantastic

A disappointment

We listened to this book as we were driving to Myrtle Beach. It seemed like an ideal choice before we left. The plot was reasonable and the book developed the character of an amateur who wants to figure out who murdered a friend with or without police cooperation believably. The performance detracted from the book though. The performer tried to use different voices for each character but generally failed. Almost all female characters sounded the same. Admittedly immigration to the Myrtle Beach area has been so great that the low country accent I grew up with 50 years ago is far less common, but it is still present and the performer's attempt was pathetic. Like "why would anyone think this guy was a professional performer" pathetic. The performance was so grating as to prevent me from wanting to listen to the sequel despite a fairly good closing hook in the book.

I thought the story dragged at points.

I didn’t like the accents in some of the characters; I thought the reader could have had more emotion in his voice.

Awesome

This is a great read. I was pleasantly surprised by the turns. Love the actual real feeling.

Great book

Not really liking the narrator, but great story and great writing. I am Currently on book two.

Great Book

Love the characters and all the twist and turns the story took
Will definitely continue this series

Amazing listen

I liked how the story built up but didn’t like the voices from the the narrator.
