Enjoying the series

I listened to the first book a couple if years ago and then relisted to it again and decided to continue. I'm enjoying the series. I still wish the accents were preformed better but over all it is good.

Another great page turner

I really enjoy the characters and started with the prologue which helps in understanding the characters. The action and locations are very interesting and Mr . Stelmach really gives an amazingly thorough description of The Ukraine and Chernobyl and the people of Ukraine and Russia. I hope he keeps writing sequels. I will read them all.

Nadia and Bobby pursued again!

This story is growing on me. The original plot is given more depth here and old plus new conflicts keep the mysteries moving.

The first book seemed to end with many conflicts calmed, if not concluded. This book picked up the conflicts surrounding the locket and the intrusive reporter, plus adds a murder that lands Bobby in jail. Of course all are connected to the main story thread from the first book. Nadia, once again, is chased through Ukraine, and the Chernobyl exclusion zone, Much is resolved or at least calmed as in the first book, but this time there is a cliffhanger ending. I am looking forward to listening to the next installment!

Again, Tanya Eby does a wonderful job of narrating.

Not a book I enjoyed

Any additional comments?

I thought the writing was mediocre and the plot not up to par. I am also not a fan of the story line. It seems very contrived.
