Reviews
BRAVO! ENCORE!
AVID READER
What a great story. As others have hinted, it is good to read about men being men, women being women. and love being strong and true. Additionally, the bad guys were truly evil and the law was properly enforced, this ensuring a happy ending. Kilmer is a treasure.

I don't agree with you, but you have the right to opinions. We have a "choice of voice" policy so you could join and read it the way you prefer so that other similar thinkers could listen, or you could check the reader before downloading, and look for something else to entertain youself. Anne
great story for today

Love RK reading. He's one of my favorites. Regarding this story -- Strong manly men, strong capable women...just the tonic I needed after watching the preview of Frozen 2, in which the message is, apparently, that men are useless and possibly unnecessary. Pretty sick of those lies.
