Horrible American Accents

The narrator portrays all Americans with horrible accents. The male narrator makes women sound whiny or angry or stuck up.

Best DCI Boyd book in the the series

The story line was a lot more than just a “who done it”. I listened to twelve of the books in this DCI Boyd Series and this was the most compelling story line yet. Also like the setting of parts of the book in the USA.

not up to par

This is the poorest written book in a fabulous series. J is out of character. Way out. Boyd is barely involved and is also out of character. As a cop he knows he cannot legally dump someone in a mental health crisis. I hope part 2 is improved and not more nonsense.

Nobody’s that stupid

I couldn’t even finish this stupid story. Literally no one is that stupid Annoying as H and I’ll skip to the end which is what I never do
