Say You're Sorry

By: Karen Rose

Narrated by: Joel Froomkin

A serial killer terrorizing the women of Sacramento meets his match in this pulse-pounding novel from New York Times bestselling author Karen Rose.

There is a serial killer on the loose, preying on vulnerable women. The only identifiable mark the killer leaves are letters—sometimes one, sometimes two—all carved into the torsos of his victims.  Together they spell “Sydney.” 

When he grabs Daisy Dawson, he believes he has found his next victim. But despite her small stature, she fights back with an expertise that quickly frees her. Before fleeing the scene, Daisy also manages to grab what proves to be crucial evidence: a necklace from around the killer’s neck. 

The necklace is more than a trivial item—it is a link to a cold case that Special Agent Gideon Reynolds has been tracking for seventeen years. With Daisy’s help, Gideon finally has the opportunity to get closer to the truth than ever before. 

But they might not get the chance, as the serial killer has a new target: Gideon and Daisy.

Narrator makes a great book a struggle to enjoy

** Possible Spoiler Alert **
I couldn't wait for this book to come out. Having only discovered Karen Rose last year. I have now listened to or read all of her books. Say You're Sorry did not disappoint as a book. The narration, though, was a bit hard to get passed. Joel Froomkin alternately sounded either drunk or sickly and weak. This may be a bit harsh but compared to previous narrators, he did a real disservice to this book. Hopefully future books will have a different performer. Besides that. LOVED this book and can't wait for the sequels, as I see so much potential with Agent Hunter, Rafe and Mercy!!

Love Karen Rose

This narrator is a little hard to get used to but loved the storyline & length.

I just cannot get past the narrator.

I think I would love this book if not for the narrator. I'm 5 hours into it and I think I'm am going to stop. There is not much difference in the characters voices. The women all sound like a man making fun of a woman's voice. It distracts from the story.

new author for me to read

really enjoyed the story will def be reading more by this author but was not a big fan of the narrator almost made me stop listening something about his character voices drove me crazy.

Really good!

Really good! From beginning to end! Never boring.. performance very good! Book you would like to listen to again!
