Treacherous Seas

Provincetown Tales, Book 8

By: Radclyffe

Narrated by: Lori Prince

Reese Conlon’s much anticipated family leave is only two weeks away, and nothing is going to stand in the way of her being at her wife’s side for the upcoming birth—not even the summer crowds in Provincetown, a new rookie cop with a hero complex, and a cruise ship at anchor in the harbor with a reported outbreak of a mysterious illness.

Andy Champlain might be a rookie cop, but she was raised by a family of cops, and she’s ready to take on any challenge, if she only gets the chance. With a disaster brewing in Provincetown Harbor, a journalist who’ll do anything for a story, and sexy summer PA, Laurel Winter, at the local clinic, she’s about to have all the excitement she can handle.

Before long, Reese, Tory, Laurel, and Andy are caught up in the gathering storms of an epidemic that could threaten all their lives.

Great story. Not so great narration.

I am a huge fan of the Provincetown series. I am so wrapped up in the characters and stories and love the way main characters appear in each story. I was so happy to see that Reese and Tori and all of everyone’s favorite people of Provincetown would be revisited. And I looked forward to Nichol Zanzarella would be back voicing Reese and Tori and Bri and everyone. She will always be the voice of these people to me. Radclyffe delivered big time. The decision to go with a different narrator? Not so much. I hate to criticize someone’s work but this was not good. Through no fault of her I believe. She clearly had no idea of Provincetown’s history. She gave Reese the voice and tone of a 45 year old male chauvinist pig. Reese is a hero to Provincetown and a marine who’s been in a war and all of the love she has for Tori would ever use those tones wither her! And everyone else sounded like valley girls. Very disappointed. I’m going to purchase the Kindle and read it. When I read character lines I’ll have to picture their voices in my head the way Nichol did them.

Need back original reader

Love the continued story. Did not like the new reader. she missed the tone of the pre-existing characters. Making everyone sound tired and drawn out lazy unsure tones. This was the first time in the searies I did not want to finish the book. just disappointed in the new voice.

love it

Great combo, Radclyffe story telling, Prince narrating. Prince brings characters alive, I look forward hoping for more from both

not totally up to previous books

the story was fine, maybe better with Nicole narrative, hope book summery is next story.

You will so love this book.

I felt this book could stand alone, even though it was part of a long series. The writing style was a bit different, lots of the same characters but definitely a different feel to the story than before in the other books, which has a connection, a smooth flow to them. This one felt cut off from the rest.The narration was great. Lori did a great job. There were parts of the story line that were not addressed properly, so I felt the author shouldn't have brought it up so much. I hope if there's another, it will fell in the blanks, and tie the books in better.
However, it's still a great read.. so get your copy today.

Another Amazing Book!!

I have read all the books in the series and was sad when I thought it was over and so excited to come across this one its such a great book!!
I was used to the other narrator and she did a fabulous job with the characters but Lori Prince is an amazing narrator and really made the characters jump from the page!

Hard Listen

For the last in the series I was already sad for the end. To have the narrator changed was a blow. She made the characters we have know sound completely off. Reese sounded like she had a head injury. If I didnt already know her to be a complete badass I woulda thought she was a slow heavy set person that just kinda stumbled through. Her impression of Nita was waaaay off. It just made it really hard to listen to. The story was good as always. I think I was most upset about the change of narrator and the fact that I paid for the last book. If you can get through that, Radclyffe kept me captivated to the end and of course left me wanting more.

yay!

loved the series thank you to author and narrators job well done. They were all just wonderful. last book lacked the sex scenes as much as the others but I would definitely recommend this last book. job well done! To happy endings.

New Narrator...

New Narrator...UGH...after 7 books with Nicol, this Narrator is a disappointment. Her gravelly interpretation of everyone but Tory is grating on the ears. If they couldn't have gotten Nicol Zanzarella at least. At least get somebody that sounded a little like her. This ruined the whole audio for me.

Good, but could have been better

A lot to unpack here. First, it really bugs me when the narrators switch in a series. I love most of Lori’s other works but after 7 Provincetown books narrated by Nicol Zanzarella, it was weird switching on book 8.

Second, this was not up to the normal p-town standards. The main characters were a bit lacking in depth of story and had so much left to give, especially regarding Andy’s background. Perhaps this has to do with the book itself. The publisher’s summary does not match the book by any means. Literally 2 completely different stories. It’s like Rad was writing one story, but after Covid hit, she quickly ditched that story and turned it into an epidemic-type story, and with the rush job it didn’t meet her normally exception story-telling skills.

Third, I was really hoping to hear about some of the prior characters. Several were in this book but they were literally just a name, with no updates or anything else about them besides Reese and Tori and a little bit of Bri.

Overall it was a good book, and had it come from any other author I would say it was a great book. But Rad has definitely done better work and after so long a wait, I’m a little disappointed.
