In the Dark

De: Loreth Anne White

Narrado por: Susan Hanfield

A secluded mountain lodge. The perfect getaway. So remote no one will ever find you.

The promise of a luxury vacation at a secluded wilderness spa has brought together eight lucky guests. But nothing is what they were led to believe. As a fierce storm barrels down and all contact with the outside is cut off, the guests fear that it’s not a getaway. It’s a trap.

Each one has a secret. Each one has something to hide. And now, as darkness closes in, they all have something to fear - including one another.

Alerted to the vanished party of strangers, homicide cop Mason Deniaud and search and rescue expert Callie Sutton must brave the brutal elements of the mountains to find them. But even Mason and Callie have no idea how precious time is. Because the clock is ticking, and one by one, the guests of Forest Shadow Lodge are being hunted. For them, surviving becomes part of a diabolical game.

I enjoyed the story and the tie-in to Agatha Christie, who is one of my favorite authors. The story mystery was pretty apparent after deaths two and three, however, it was still a good, light read. The narration, however, was AWFUL. The constant mispronunciation of been, again and against was so grating that it actually detracted from the story. Fortunately, this book arrived as a Kindle Unlimited for me, so I was able to read most of it on my Kindle and was spared the horrible narration.

I had a hard time getting into it

I really enjoy Loreth Anne White and I was excited for this book to come out, it was the first book I've pre-ordered. I was so disappointed with everything!

The narrator is unbearable for the first three hours. I had to force myself to keep listening. I got a little into it, I was not a fan of the back and forth.

SPOILERS coming

I was annoyed with the decision to reveal it was Stella after it happened in the present day. By the time we cut back to the lodge party I didn't even care anymore. I also felt kinda bad for Debra,.she was perceived as such a villan at the end... like is what she did so bad?

enjoyed

Well written and read with alot of twists.Kept me intrested. Will read more of her books.

A convoluted plot line that keeps your interest.

Good story line with lots of involved characters. I liked the way the timeline was written and how it all came together at the end. The one thing I really had trouble with was the narrator. I just found I did not enjoy her voice on this, which I realize is a personal preference. I stopped it. about half way thru and then later decided to finish it. I'd suggest getting the sample reading before buying.

Narration tough

I loved the story but the ending could have been stronger in a different order. The narration is heavily accented (Canadian) which I found a bit grating. I’m guessing it’s to put the reader in rural BC but it’s just distracting.
