Heart of Stone

The Negotiator Trilogy, Book 1

De: C. E. Murphy

Narrado por: Eve Bianco

What secrets lie shrouded in darkness?

Okay, so jogging through Central Park after midnight wasn't a bright idea. But Margrit Knight never thought she'd encounter a dark new world filled with magical beings, not to mention a dying woman and a mysterious stranger with blood on his hands. Her logical lawyer instincts told her it couldn't all be real, but she could hardly deny what she'd seen...and touched.

The mystery man, Alban, was a gargoyle. One of the fabled Old Races who had hidden their existence for centuries. Now he was a murder suspect, and he needed Margrit's help to take the heat off him and find the real killer. And as the dead pile up, it's a race against the sunrise to clear Alban's name and keep them both alive.

Capricious

Fantastic audio book, narrator is amazing.

THE TRUTH!!!!!

After listening to some of the reviews, I was skeptical about using a credit on this book. Due to my better judgement and not following the negative reviews, this book was excellent. After reading another favorite, Blood Mark Of A Shadow Walker by Jeanetta King, she also introduce you, the reader, into a new world with mystical creatures and magic. C. E. Murphy delivered a unique story and I’ve already purchased the second book, House Of Cards.

If you can get past the Narrator...

What made the experience of listening to Heart of Stone the most enjoyable?

I enjoyed the story and would really like to say I will get the others in the series but I have not finished this book due to the narration....I am sorry people but this gal is very boring for me.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Eve Bianco?

Wow.....Jill Redfield, Lorelei King, Khristiine Hvan, Renee Raudman just to name a few....

Any additional comments?

As I already said...I liked the story and all but have not finished it because of the narration. I will eventually listen to the rest as I want to know what happens but the rest of the series? Not so sure.....finding out there are really things out there that go bump in the night...I like to see how they are handled.

Opportunity missed

An interesting connection to the topic of racism is only suggested in this book. A more complex and thoughtful treatment of it would have made all the difference. Vocabulary issues also detracted. Ms. Murphy should never use the words "palpable" or "belie" again.

super

I really enjoyed this book. It is not in my normal gendre of reading but i found it very refreshing and exciting. Hope we see a sequel.
