The Bay at Midnight

De: Diane Chamberlain

Narrado por: Cris Dukehart, Randye Kaye, Julie McKay

Her family's cottage on the New Jersey shore was a place of freedom and innocence for Julie Bauer - until her 17-year-old sister, Isabel, was murdered. It's been more than 40 years since that August night, but Julie's memories of her sister's death still shape her world. Now someone from her past is raising questions about what really happened that night. About Julie's own complicity. About a devastating secret her mother kept from them all. About the person who went to prison for Izzy's murder - and the person who didn't. Faced with questions and armed with few answers, Julie must gather the courage to revisit her past and untangle the complex emotions that led to one unspeakable act of violence on the bay at midnight.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The story of what really happened unfolds organically and credibly, building to a touching denouement that plumbs the nature of crimes of the heart." ( Publishers Weekly)

Intriguing drama

Great story, kept me listening and interested. One of the narrators has too much vocal fray, but it is only mildly annoying.

a bit slow to begin with

i found the story hard to get into though the last quarter of the story was hard to put down. i enjoyed the murder mystery who done it part of the story and the outcome wasn't predictable but not her best book but still worth listening

Family Dynamics & Consequenses

I liked that it wasn’t predictable. It was easy to get into. I liked and related to the characters. It held my interest and never dragged.

He said, She said

The "he said, she said" of Julie's narrator would have been better left unsaid, very distracting! Once I stopped wincing, the book was enjoyable and the story intriguing.

Story was interesting, however writers style of he said she said I said became annoying and dragged the story.
