Full Disclosure

By: Dee Henderson

Narrated by: David de Vries

Length: 14 hrs and 10 mins

Publisher's summary

Ann Silver is a cop’s cop. As the Midwest Homicide Investigator, she is called in to help local law enforcement on the worst of cases, looking for answers to murder. Hers is one of the region’s most trusted investigative positions. Paul Falcon is the FBI’s top murder cop in the Midwest. If the victim carried a federal badge or had a security clearance, odds are good Paul and his team see the case file or work the murder.

Their lives intersect when Ann arrives to pass a case off her desk and onto his. A car wreck and a suspicious death offer a lead on a hired shooter he is tracking. Paul isn’t expecting to meet someone, the kind that goes on the personal side of the ledger, but Ann Silver has his attention.

The better he gets to know her, the more Paul realizes her job barely scratches the surface of who she is. She knows spies and soldiers and U.S. Marshals, and has written books about them. She is friends with the former vice president. People with good reason to be cautious about who they let into their lives deeply trust her. Paul wonders just what secrets Ann is keeping, until she shows him the John Doe Killer case file, and he starts to realize just who this lady he is falling in love with really is....

Passionless

I haven't written a review in a while, but I just had to do one for this book. First off let me say the narrator was very good when it came to doing the voices. They were very distinct and his female voices were very good.

However, this story lacked passion. The story has a Christian bent, however are you telling me that Christians don't have any passion in their lives? The story line was interesting however, again it could have been ramped up some with more intensity with her word choice in telling the story. As far as the romance between the main characters were concerned, it was very apathetic. I can't believe someone sees someone starts asking questions about their background, likes what they hear and decides this is the one for me. HUH? No....heart beating fast when you are with this person? No....desire to kiss her senseless, no body reaction to being close her......is this the way Christians are around their so called love interest? Look we all have those giddy feelings when we think we have found the one, the body responses, the desire to touch, kiss the one that makes your heart beat alarmingly when they are around, to deny these feelings exist isn't being human, it doesn't mean you have to act on them. Acting on them after marriage is the Christian way. This story didn't do it for me, I like stories that writers imbue with more intensity and passion.

Sneaky religious testimonial

I detest the content about testifying for the Lord. I was astounded to suddenly be hearing about prayer, dependence on the Lord, etc. If I wanted to hear such material I would have sought books in the religion category. I don't like deviousness and won't listen to this author again.

Dissapointed

This was my first Dee Henderson book and i guess I expected more from all the hype about her books. I felt the pace was sluggish, far too complcated and I found the character of Ann Silver more strange than sympathetic. I wanted to like her but found her tedious instead. Even the story line seemed to plod along rather than move smoothly. Because this author has many good reviews for previous books I will probably give her another shot, but will approach with caution.
David de Vries was good with the delivery of the story

Disappointed - Had Great Potential but Falls Flat

I have read all of Dee Henderson's books and for the most part, they are all wonderful. Dee hasn't written any books in a while so when this book came out, I immediately purchased it. I really wanted this to be a good book but instead of a good story, what I got was a great disappointment. One, Dee spent a great deal of time talking about her other books which I found to be very tacky and boring. In fact, it was so bad I wanted to fast forward through these parts which would of meant that I would of had to fast forward through a lot of the book. Two, there were way too many stories going on at one time. The first hour or two was great then for the next 9-10 hours it was torture. The final hour was good. In my opinion, the main characters voice was horrible. At times it was simply unbearable. I guess I expected more from Dee after the O'Malley series. I'm sorry Dee, but I simply cannot recommend this book to others.

Uplifting Story

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This is a book about faith and trust and I guess that because it is a Christian book I would be reluctant to recommend it to those who would not hear the message it carries.

What did you like best about this story?

I enjoyed the many twists and turns in the story - it kept me interested and wanting to hear more. I guess the bit I liked most about this story was listening to Paul Falcon talk about his faith and his family.

Which scene was your favorite?

When Paul and Ann married.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I didn't listen to it in one sitting but it was my constant companion for two days.

Any additional comments?

I hadn't read or listened to any of Dee Hendersons books before and have now become an avid fan. Listening to this book had me intrigued about the O'Malley's and so I have now started reading that series. Unfortunately only book 6 is available as an audiobook.

Can't Relate to Storyline

Although I understood this was a Christian writer, I have read such books, like the Walt Longmire stories, that weren't so religious. In this book, there is no cursing, drinking, smoking, or sex, but it is about people who spend a lot of time reading the bible. That is, it is not real life. Really, the star of the story is a forty year old vergin? The plot is boring, boring, boring. They are after murder for hire killers. I would not recommend anyone buying this book. I am glad I only paid a low sale price, but feel I wasted my money even then.

DEE surprises you again

What made the experience of listening to Full Disclosure the most enjoyable?

The narrator has a great voice range to bring all these characters to life.

Any additional comments?

If you love Dee Henderson, you will love this book. She has done it again with characters that make you think and that you will enjoy. This story has a lot of twists and turns. If you like mystery and romance this book is for you.

Snore

What would have made Full Disclosure better?

A faster plot with more realistic characters

Has Full Disclosure turned you off from other books in this genre?

Maybe. I've never read anything by Dee Henderson, and I'm a bit afraid to try again.

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

He had a relaxing voice. I didn't care so much for his feminine voices.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Frustration.

Any additional comments?

I've never skipped ahead in an audiobook before, but I finally had to skip to the end, just to see if they ever would get together, and then it was so unrealistic. Yeah, right - a guy would marry someone who wants to be apart from them all of the time. What's the point in getting married?

Wonderful story! Good to have Dee Henderson back!

Any additional comments?

I have been a Dee Henderson fan for years, so I was thrilled when Full Disclosure was released. This book thoroughly lived up to her past works. For all Dee Henderson fans who didn't want the O'Malley series to end - you're going to want to read this book!

Take note this is Christian book

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

No. Since I could not finish the book I could not recommend it to others.

What was most disappointing about Dee Henderson’s story?

It lacked passion and chemistry.

Have you listened to any of David de Vries’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

The narration was wonderful and what kept me trying to listen longer, but unfortunately I could not finish the book.

Was Full Disclosure worth the listening time?

No

Any additional comments?

The fact that it is a Christian book might not have kept me from purchasing the story, but I do wish I had known going into it. I really like suspense romances but this was NOT a romance. There was no passion and I didn't even feel chemistry between the main characters. I felt like it was more of a business merger then a budding romance. Ms. Henderson seems to have a large fan base and that's wonderful, but I thought a review should be posted letting others know what they are going into.

Story should get a 10 outta 5 rating! BEST yet!

I've been a Dee Henderson fan since her Prequel to the Omalley Series. BUT 'Full Disclosure' goes above and beyond ALL expectations! MASTERPIECE! Leaving me wanting for MORE and to even revisit the earlier 'Stories', reminiscing on the lives and 'friends' she introduced us to...and now eludes to in this EPIC Masterpiece, a tapestry of lives you are familiar with, woven together in such a heart felt way that you feel you are in the midst of the CORE FAMILY gathering, catching up with loved ones. The intensity and twists the action and drama takes you on is exquisitely balanced by the incredible sense of FAMILY love and support. . .ALL of whom have found HOPE, in the Father, the Son and 'Lovely'! "Anne's" intimate, heart felt description of 'Lovely' is one the has touched me to the depths of my relationship with Him...my thoughts have often wandered back to that chapter reflecting on my own experiences communicating with Him...makes my heart smile! :)

Brilliant Henderson just not for me !

I you could cut out a page here and a page there, I think de Vries wouldn’t have been as wrong for this THING !
The brilliant story is relegated to Sunday school.
The Bible-humping totally ruins the pro. cut suspense and your left with a feeling of wasted money !
But if you’re looking for a new New Testament this would be brilliant for approximately 20 % the south of USA but the rest of the world weir just not that in**** !
Denmark 🇩🇰

Enjoyable but not her best work

Henderson has never been able to repeat the magic of the O'Malley series (particularly the first few books in that series which I thought were particularly excellent), but I enjoyed this story more than some of her other books. However, it really bothered me that she made out that the main character, Ann Silver, wrote the O'Malley series. For me, it heavily detracted from the "suspension of disbelief" necessary to enjoy the story- it took something away from the fictional world of the characters as well as adding a weird vibe that she was trying to give herself a more interesting past. That said, I enjoyed the book on the whole and thought the narrator did an excellent job.

Frustrating

The crime writing in this book is really good and the story had me in suspense. The frustrating parts were the overlong diversions into slushy romance and theological discourse. I'm certainly not against romance but it completely interfered with and took the pace away from the crime element of the book which spoilt it for me. With an audio book you can't easily skim through pages! I won't be buying any more of Dee Henderson's titles if this book is anything to go by. Crime 9/10, but spoiled by mistaken idea of weaving it with a romantic novel.
