The Narrator is horrible

I rarely leave a review on a book that I have listened to but I had to on this one to warn others! The narrator is horrible, I kept thinking it might get better but it didn’t . It’s really too bad because the storyline was pretty good.

Great Procedural!!!

This is the first book in a new series. What an excellent read it is. The characters are likable and fully fleshed out. The story is believable and the plot is plausible.
The protagonist (Thomas Shepherd) has moved back to his hometown of Wolf Lake where he gets a job as a deputy. It’s a step down from his Detective position in California. He was wounded and needs a quieter life but wants to remain in law enforcement, much to his wealthy parents chagrin. Shepherd is their only child. He has very mild Asperger syndrome. Shepherd’s quieter life is soon shattered when the body of a missing teenage prostitute washes up on the lakeshore by his home.
This is a superb procedural. Very taught with some great “don’t go there“ moments. This book has my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION.
Daniela Actelli does a wonderful job narrating.
If you found this review helpful please indicate so.
Thank You.

read it...

the narrator was horrible. had to struggle through every chapter just to finish. would highly recommend not listening.

The narrator is like nails on a chalkboard

I really couldn’t pay attention to the story because of the narrator’s voice or lack there of. Yikes

narrator made the book less enjoyable

the story was good but the narrator made it less enjoyable. I had a hard time following the characters as she used the same voice for everyone.
