Great Female Sleuth Story!

I loved this book and can see it's a great 1st book in series. I loved the complexity of the characters and the character development. It all came together nicely in the end. All the clues fell into place. It left me wanting to go to the next book.

Eye opener

This is one of those novels that shocks you and totally empathetic to the characters, I actually have an extended family member this happened to back in the 1960's, but it was the stepfather and her mother left him but also raised the child, which was her grandchild, as her child, so they grew up as sister's but in reality, they was much more. There was a lot of frustration in that relationship but they did the best they could do to keep the child in the family and love her as she grew. The truth came out on the oldest deathbed. Took a lot of therapy to fix that. Great eye opener.

Great Book!!!

This book had me hooked from the beginning, I can not wait to listen to the next one in the series!!!

The worst narrator I have ever listened to

The story seems good but it’s hard to even finish this book with the narrator. She is so monotone and has no emotion. I can’t even finish this book. I never not finish either

Intriguing and clean

I liked that the writer was clear, the narrator was very good and no trashy language was used.

Good story…but

Stilted performance that impacted the enjoyment of the overall experience. I would recommend reading instead of listening.

Not a fan of the narrator

It was a struggle to go through this book it was too monotone, and all the characters sounded the same.

Terrible narration

Zero emotion in voice. Same narrator for all parts and hard to keep characters straight when listening

Nothing

The narrator was monotonous, I had trouble hearing the change in characters. I had a difficult time getting through this story.

The Narration Ruined this Audiobook

I enjoyed the story. It was very entertaining, and would have given 5 stars if the narration had not been a horrible monotone, that never ended!
