The Curse of Misty Wayfair

De: Jamie Jo Wright

Narrado por: Pilar Witherspoon

Left at an orphanage as a child, Thea Reed vowed to find her mother someday. Now grown, her search takes her to Pleasant Valley, Wisconsin, in 1908. When clues lead her to a mental asylum, Thea uses her experience as a postmortem photographer to gain access and assist groundskeeper Simeon Coyle in photographing the patients and uncovering the secrets within. However, she never expected her personal quest would reawaken the legend of Misty Wayfair, a murdered woman who allegedly haunts the area and whose appearance portends death.

A century later, Heidi Lane receives a troubling letter from her mother - who is battling dementia - compelling her to travel to Pleasant Valley for answers to her own questions of identity. When she catches sight of a ghostly woman who haunts the asylum ruins in the woods, the long-standing story of Misty Wayfair returns - and with it, Heidi's fear for her own life.

As two women across time seek answers about their identities and heritage, can they overcome the threat of the mysterious curse that has them inextricably intertwined?

Narrator not for me

I stopped listening to this book an hour or so in. The narrator emphasizes strange words, has oddly timed pauses, and is very slow. It has an amateurish quality to it. I got the kindle edition and really like it. Jaime Jo Wright is an engaging author. I’ll certainly continue to follow her work!

Ended up loving this book!

When I first started listening I thought I wasn't going to like it. But I decided to keep listening for a little bit longer and give it a chance. I am so glad that I did! I ended up loving this book! I couldn't wait to find out what was going on and what was going to happen. I didn't want to stop listening! I am looking forward to listening to other books from this author.

Can't wait to read the next one!

I just discovered this author and do happy I did! Her books are beautiful and mysterious.

Narrator awful - story okay

I'm sorry I paid for this book. I was unfamiliar with this author but the story line caught my interest. I won't be listening to any more of her stories. I listened to a sample from another of her books and that narrator was also awful. Also, there is a slight religious bent which is not something I care to listen to. Story turned out to be okay.

Jaime Jo Wright is one of my favs

Jaime Jo weight is one of my absolute favorite authors. I’ve read all her books at least twice, and I will continue to buy them. But this one…this. one.
Whyyyyyyy do we have such a weak, pathetic, main women in Heidi. Rett is a complete a-hole to her as well is her sister. And she never stands up for herself. Wth?? Rett and Vicki are such jerks and I found myself yelling at them and Heidi too for letting get happen. Get a backbone girl. Damn.
