Gone

De: Randy Wayne White

Narrado por: Renée Raudman

Randy Wayne White has long been known for suspenseful plots, complex characters, and an extraordinary sense of place. His new series has them all—and then some.

Hannah Smith: a tall, strong, formidable Florida woman, the descendant of generations of strong Florida women. She makes her living as a fishing guide, but her friends, neighbors, and clients also know her as an uncommonly resourceful woman with a keen sense of justice—someone who can’t be bullied—and they have taken to coming to her with their problems.

Her methods can be unorthodox, though, and those on the receiving end of them often wind up very unhappy—and sometimes very violent. And when a girl goes missing, and Hannah is asked to find her, that is exactly what happens. . . .

Reseñas de la Crítica

Praise for Gone by Randy Wayne White:

“In his Doc Ford novels, Randy Wayne White plumbs the shallows of the Gulf waters and the depths of the human heart. But in his newest thriller, Gone, he gives us Hannah Smith, a gutsy new heroine to root for, and a plot that crackles with the electricity of a Florida thunderstorm. Gone won’t be long forgotten.”—P. J. Parrish, author of the New York Times-bestselling Louis Kincaid thrillers

“A heroine who’s just as stubborn and capable and even more appealing than White’s Doc Ford.”—Kirkus

Entertaining +++++

loved it. Well composed. Edgy. Will look forward to future chapters in Hannah's world.

Great new protagonist

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

Yes

What other book might you compare Gone to and why?

Any of his Doc Ford novels

What aspect of Renee Raudman’s performance would you have changed?

With the main voice being that of Hanna Smith, a SW Fla born and bread woman and fishing guide, she would have a more country / cracker accent.

Any additional comments?

Like the new protagonist and the ties to the past novels of Randy's. Hope he keeps it up.

Detail--Accuracy--Predatory bum

This tale continues Randy White's fishing and weird stories about Southwest Florida. Ancestors and rumors and school friends mix it all together.

A Boat Captain turned Sleuth

When I read the description of this book, it sounded interesting. A captain of a boat that take fisherman out on the Gulf of Mexico in southern Florida. She then helps to find a missing inheritance. Intriguing plot. I could not imagine how this could me done. Mr. White does it very well. He winds a tale with many different threads that come together towards the end. Everything seems to fit together. If you are listening to the book on Audible, the reader has a very pleasing voice that she twists to sound so all the characters have a different voice.

This is a great read.
