Impressive short (4.5 hour) suspense novel

I'm currently listening to Leap by Michael C Grumley. I did not write a review of Through the Fog when I read it last year. In this novel psychiatrist Shannon Mayor asks for help finding her kidnapped daughter from her patient Evan Nash who is seeing her to try to cope with disturbing visions he is having after being run down on his bicycle. It is an excellent suspense story.

Very disappointing

unrealistic. too many times I thought yeah right. I won't be reading any more books by this author.

Solid 4

It’s not what I’m used to but Grumley seems to wrap it up I’m 4 hrs.
I’ve read most all of his other books & started out with Breakthrough which I really liked. I loved the Dolphin connection.
This is his first (does he have any more?) short story I’ve read.
This book is well worth time spent. No I don’t think it’s that easy to put a novel’s worth of info into bout 1/2 the time and do it justice but he did a pretty dang good job.
Don’t think you’ll be dissatisfied so yes....go ahead and get it already. The

Worst EVER!

What would have made Through the Fog better?

I don't think even prayer would have helped!

What could Michael C. Grumley have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Write a book that does not insult the average reader's mental capacity!

What does Amy McFadden bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I felt she had poor material to work with, but did a good job with what she had.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Disappointment!

Any additional comments?

I listen to lots of audible books and this was absolutely not worth the time. A total waste of time!

interesting concept

a very good story. I didn't want to put it down until I finished. the writer doesn't get bogged down, the story flows.

Remote Viewing

This story has great potential. I like the theme of this story "remote viewing" but it is too short to be adequately developed. This was a recent audible daily deal which I took advantage of and glad that I did. It was enjoyable but characters and storyline is underdeveloped.

As described in the publisher's review, this story is about a boy who can "see" remotely people, places and things when he sleeps. This story has great potential to be developed into an entertaining read.

Overall, it's not worth a credit but ok for a 2.95 purchase.

Poor Research leads to Sub-Optimal Dialogue

How does such a poorly written book get so many positive reviews? It is a short book and I managed to get through all of it with difficulty. This is a poorly researched self-published book with dialogue and actions which were so uninformed that I cringed as I listened. An example occurs when after many hours of ‘free’ therapy, the psychiatrist, Dr. Shannon Mayer thinks, “Clearly, there was something demented going on in his head.” Her language and actions are not those of a professional person throughout the book. Other reviewers have commented on the many problems with character and plot development in this novel and I will not reiterate those comments, but I do agree with them. I will avoid this author in the future. Amy McFadden's narration was excellent but she could not save a bad book

Something a little different

To short, but otherwise enjoyable. certainly not what I was expecting. Narrator did a good job. Apparently this will be a series, I look forward to reading the continuing story.

Worst book ever listened to on Audible!!

Story was not believable, writing sophomoric, depiction of psychiatrist and nurses were extremely unprofessional. Doesn't even fit in category of science fiction. Worst book in 6 years with Audible.

Loved the Suspense

Great book . Enjoy the suspense the characters are developing nicely . Looking forward to book 2.
