Book excellent as usual .

Narrator needs an English lesson: if you are "winding" your way around something, it is pronounced as in winding a watch, not as in blowing wind. I have written this comment repeatedly - I hope someone knows narrator or directs them to this comment. Unbelievable the number of narrators that either are never taught this difference in grade school. 5 stars otherwise.

no one dies!

Enjoyed this book. Suspense without murder - a nice twist! I would have liked to see more punishment to the old man though.
