Publisher's summary

Still Life With Crows: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience!

A small Kansas town has turned into a killing ground.Is it a serial killer, a man with the need to destroy?

Or is it a darker force, a curse upon the land?

Amid golden cornfields, FBI Special Agent Pendergast discovers evil in the blood of America's heartland.

No one is safe.

Booktrack is an immersive format that pairs traditional audiobook narration to complementary music. The tempo and rhythm of the score are in perfect harmony with the action and characters throughout the audiobook. Gently playing in the background, the music never overpowers or distracts from the narration, so listeners can enjoy every minute. When you purchase this Booktrack edition, you receive the exact narration as the traditional audiobook available, with the addition of music throughout.

Critic reviews

"From the first [minute], Still Life with Crows is creepy, disturbing, and altogether fascinating: Preston and Child at their best." (Salem Statesman Journal (OR))

"Highly entertaining...a creepy, well-plotted novel...Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child's trademark mix of mystery, suspense, horror, and history proves to be a combination that works." (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel)

"Smart, skillful writers who have fun spinning their tall tale, and if you enjoy things-that-go-bump-in-the-night thrillers, you'll have fun [listening to] it." (Washington Post Book World)

For Pendergast fans

If you love the Pendergast series, this one doesn’t disappoint.
I wouldn’t recommend spending the extra on the book track, the background sounds are not necessarily adding to the book content.

Murder in Medicine Creek

This was book 4 in the Pendergast series. It continues the amazing partnership of Preston and Child. Both fantastic authors individually, they are magic together. This book finds Pendergast in the sticks, in vacation, to solve a disturbing murder mystery. They perfectly capture the spirit and essence of a dying small town, from the atmosphere, the weather and the populace. This investigation also confounds Psndergast, since it is like no other. We also meet lovely Corrie Swanson, a young Goth girl with guts. The protagonist is quite a twist. It is a tense thrill ride, magnificently narrated by Scott Brick. Hours of juicy Pendergast goodness that I just didn't want to end, and what an ending!

Slow

All Preston and Child Books are good. To me they have an excessive amount of superfluous detail and it would be nice if they were about 2/3 as long. Still I can’t stop listening to them at 1.25 or hidgher

One of the better Pendergast novels

Love this story. Shows the human side of Pendergast at the end. One of the better written and full story in one book novels.

It’s an audio book, not a movie soundtrack!

I love the entire series so far! I love Scott Brick as the narrator.

Audible or whom ever desires these things, please STOP with the music during the reading. It actually takes away from the story!!
