It was a slow start for me, but I loved the story!!

Although this one started slow for me, I ended up really enjoying the storyline! I am a mystery fan, as well as a historical fiction fan.. so this reached out to me in both levels! The history was well written and true to life. I loved the characters and how they come to be a part of each other’s lives!!! Irina Shapiro is a wonderful writer! This is awesome!

The Unforgiving

This is a fantastic series. I love the mystery and intrigue of this. Its told in past and present. Once I started to listen I could not out it down. Its definitely a page turner. Theres lots of twists and turns, its like putting a puzzle together and as you listen you put the puzzle together. This is more than a five star read. I definitely recommend.

cringe-worthy American accents

I truly love the book series but had wished the author had not brought the story to the United States. I couldn't help but cringe every time the narrator spoke in an American accent. Sadly, it was way off.

Fantastic story!

I love this series! This book was slightly predictable but not enough to persuaded to not finish the book. The narrator is good, but doesn't get the southern pronunciations of some words, but that was easily overlooked.
I definitely suggest this series to everyone

Unforgiven

Book 3 of Echoes of the Past. This is a wonderful series but this story was especially heartbreaking. Love that it takes place in the South, USA, gives it a different perspective as US history is so different from European history. This is another Do Not Miss book/series by Iron a Shapiro.
