Hunting Season-Pt 2- Narrator note

Revisado: 03-28-10

I enjoyed hearing this book, as I have enjoyed reading other Nevada Barr / Anna Pigeon novels. They are interesting plots based on experiences of a person who has been in the position of the protagonist. Those are my favorite novels. I listen rather casually, so am not looking for faults in narration. One misuse / mispronunciation brought to my attention, however, a pronunciation glitch by Ms. Rosenblat that is easily made due to the spelling and similarity of the differently pronounced words.

In part 2, Chapter 2 the author says that Randy Thigpen has secreted some papers in his desk drawer. Ms. Rosenblat pronounces it as see-krit-ed. Since secret / seekrit can not be a verb, neither can secret-ed. However, secrete / si'kreet is a verb, as is secreted. They are spelled the same, but are different parts of speech, with different meanings and are pronounced differently.
Thanks for a good story! - Dave Frost- an old teacher!
