Historia
Until about 1800, the West and the Islamic realm were like two adjacent, parallel universes, each assuming itself to be the center of the world while ignoring the other. As Europeans colonized the globe, the two world histories intersected and the Western narrative drove the other one under. The West hardly noticed, but the Islamic world found the encounter profoundly disrupting.

Detailed but not tedious, as a non-Muslim it felt balanced. Narrator was clear and didn’t get in the way of the text.

Historia
Three hours into her new job, Blake Larsen stumbles across her first body. But this is no ordinary murder. The scene is elaborately staged, with the victim's head clinically severed from her shoulders. Blake is certain this isn't the killer's first time. Then, a second woman goes missing, a beautiful young Army wife named Nina Crawford. When the kidnappers—claiming to be ISIS—release a horrific videoed ransom demand threatening to livestream her execution, the attention of the entire country turns to Northern Pines. And a countdown begins. Nina has 48 hours to live.

I liked that k couldn’t put it down. It’s not a groundbreaking literary masterpiece but it is very good for the genre. I’ll listen to more in the series.

Loved the suspense. Some of the characters were one-dimensional but for the most part the author showed both flaws and strengths.

Historia
1914, Fiji: 25-year-old Akal Singh would rather be anywhere but this tropical paradise—or, as he calls it, “this godforsaken island.” After a promising start to his police career in his native India and Hong Kong, Akal has been sent to Fiji as punishment for a humiliating professional mistake. Lonely and grumpy, Akal plods through his work and dreams of getting back to Hong Kong. When an indentured Indian woman goes missing from a sugarcane plantation and Fiji’s newspapers scream “kidnapping,” the inspector-general reluctantly assigns Akal the case.

This was suspenseful and clever with lots of twists. I listened to it nonstop whenever I had the chance. I liked the alternating perspectives of Halley and a Bosch.

There was no getting lost in this story. It was unbelievable and the characters were all unlikeable. Narration was fine.
