The Wrong Woman

A Lesbian Mystery Romance

By: Jane Retzig

Narrated by: Anne Day-Jones

Length: 6 hrs and 29 mins

Publisher's summary

Kate is a rapidly rising star of the trauma therapy world - London based, shy, uptight, and with an air of aloofness that masks a deep sense of insecurity.

When she has to relocate her "Traumatology for the 21st Century" conference to Horton Hill "Deluxe" Hotel and Conference Centre in the heart of industrial West Yorkshire, she is understandably horrified by the state of the place.

Horton Hill is a mess. The car park looks like the surface of the moon. The pool is a health hazard. And the staff seem incapable of speaking intelligible English.

When Naz, the hotel's "Hospitality Assistant" finds Kate struggling with her luggage, she instantly stops to help. Bright, enthusiastic and hard-working, she is drawn to Kate's barely concealed vulnerability, and desperately wants to make a good impression on the harassed, but undeniably attractive conference organizer.

Despite her natural caution, as the weekend progresses, Kate finds herself warming to Naz's kindness and obvious interest in her.

But she is unaware that her carefully constructed life back in London is starting to unravel.

And when she finds herself accused of a terrible crime, Kate discovers that sometimes friendship and love can be found in the most unlikely of places.

Worth a listen to see what you think

The 2 main characters were very likable. Typical move to love quickly. Not enough time spent in developing the relationship, for the lengths of which one character was willing to go through, to be believable. Other characters given some flesh, yet predictable storylines.

So Many Voices, but No pictures

I enjoyed the story overall. Great dialogue and quirky, memorable characters who were, personality-wise, really well developed. I was not used to having nearly complete omniscience, though. It took until the end of the story to understand the pattern of whose voice we heard and whose we didn't. Another interesting style choice was the detail of some scenes, but the amount of picture left to the imagination. If you rely on an author to pain a room for you, this might be hard. If you are ok with little stills and limited snap-shots, it'll work fine.

Meh

Cool story, quirky but just not my cup of tea. I didn’t care for the dragging out mystery I found myself skipping chapters to get to the romance but only happened once and at the end I guess. Main characters didn’t get a lot of development. Not a romance more of a murder mystery with gay characters

So much more here than you're expecting

The descriptive "blurb" greatly undersold this book. This is an excellent murder mystery written at a high level. The characters pull you in, the plot moves right along, and the end was not predictable. The narration was top notch. I kept hanging out in my car for an inappropriate amount of time after parking so I could keep listening. Don't be fooled by the first few chapters. This ain't no romance novel, although the romance running through it is incredibly sweet. Will definitely be picking up Jane Retzig in the future. This was a great, surprising find for me and I highly recommend it.

amazingly well written book

the story had a wonderful edge to it. it will definitely keep you guessing till the end.
i only wish itbwent one more chapert so we could find out what happends to everyone.

A terrific story/narration

This was a terrific who-done-it by Jane Retzig - my second Audible story by this author - I will definitely be searching for more stories by her. Anne Day-Jones does wonders with the characters and voices (and pace) you can imagine the scenes so vividly - she is the ideal story teller. I will also be looking to find other stories featuring her as the narrator.

A wonderful find!

.

This is a very good listen... I really enjoyed it...
I've already listen to it twice and I've only own my copy a couple of weeks.

Hard to follow

Story was good but Hard to follow. Got lost with characters more than once.

Mystery, danger, romance....

Well read. Jane has a sexy accent. I would love to see what happens next.

Narrator was EXCELLENT

I thoroughly enjoyed the mystery, every twist and backstory. An excellent job was done with the police procedural. The love interest beautifully and realistically displayed. A new love interest with a crisis happening. The very human doubts and insecurities were pitch perfect. This Narrator is superb and I look forward to reading more books by author and this narrator.
