A Must-Read for “Somewhere in Time” and Mackinac Fans

Following upon the heals of The Dockporter book, the authors have taken us fans of the set of the movie “Somewhere in Time” (i.e, Mackinac Island … pronounced Mackinaw Island) back to the summer of the shooting of the movie (1979).

The audiobook, well narrated by the author, Dave McVeigh, is one that is filled with youthful energy, older people doggedly holding on to their dreams, and the attempt by an eleven- year-old boy to solve a 20-year-old unsolved murder.

The twist at the end, you will not see coming.

I highly endorse this audiobook…ESPECIALLY if you are a fan (like me) of the movie “Somewhere in Time”.

Loved it!!!

Somewhere in Crime was great! While I originally ordered it in paperback, I ended up listening to it on Audible and it did a great job distracting me from my bumper to bumper commute in Los Angeles. McVeigh and Bolone are talented writers and, as prior dockporters on Mackinac Island, do an amazing job of depicting life on the island. Dave also did a fabulous job narrating and I'd recommend giving it a listen. Just like "The Dockporter" book- it sucked me in and kept my attention to the very last page! Can't wait for the next in the series! Keep it up, gentlemen!
