Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant!!!

As usual Joy Ellis does not disappoint!
The characters are so very real, within minutes you are transported into their world, you feel their pain, live their fears.
As for the narrator, absolutely brilliant!....thank you Mr Armitage, thank you!

My favourite in the series so far...

I listened to the first two books in the series and was constantly frustrated that the detectives, who were meant to be the best in their field, were missing such blatant clues and should have solved the mystery much quicker... this storyline was more plausible and although I foresaw the end it was much closer to the plot reveal...

Love this series

This book was a little too short but I really enjoyed listening. The ending was a surprise and I would never have guessed. The narrator is very good and does each character so uniquely that I can see each one.

Super

Loved it! Great page turner! highly recommend it and i really enjoy Richard Armitage's story telling.

Keeps you guessing!

This one had me guessing "who done it" until the end. Love Richard Armitage's voice and it is easy to tell when he switches characters.

Great series

Another unique story in this series. Perfect performance and interesting characters. Can’t believe these are in the “included” section when I’ve gotten much less quality for a credit!

Fantastic series of books

Great writing! Great narrating! So many twists and turns. Keeps one guessing. I couldn’t put it down.

Excellent read from start to finish

This was oh so good!! You will enjoy every bit of it. A must read.

Good

I loved the story. I just do not like the f word and wonder why authors feel they have to use it.

How Far Will Friendship Go

This is the best Jackman/Evans book yet and they have all been incredible. I was captivated from the very first and could not stop listening even though my heart grew heavier as the story unfolded. Carter McLean is carrying a huge burden in this installment of the series and it turns out the true burden isn't what you expect. What are you willing do for your friends? Even if it leads into a darkness from which you may not return? As always, Richard Armitage draws you in to the power of the story with his masterful use of voice and dialects. I most certainly hope there is more to come from both Ms Ellis and Mr. Armitage.
