Reviews

I kept listening


(5 stars)

The story was interesting for the most part, then slowed down towards the end. The final twist was not expected. I liked the characters. The reader has a nice voice and handled all the male voices just fine.

Mystery, love and intrigue

(5 stars)

A unique detective and a very interesting story.


(4 stars)

Interesting story but somehow the original seems to be lost for awhile but just like that it’s back again and all the seemingly useless parts of the story get tied in and mystery is solved. Great reader always enjoy her.

Who's cutting onions here
