Like a first draft and disliked reader

Revisado: 11-14-24

I've adored this series and read almost every book twice This book is a disappointment Way too many characters and hard to follow plot Not well edited Narrator's voice may be authentic but the names of places and characters were hard to understand I constantly had to rewind The Eq seemed off so the voice was sibilant and stagy without the beauty and warm undertones of the two previous readers Made it irritating to listen to and the director/editor should have had the narrator pause more between sections As it was the hearer was yanked from Canada to DC and Europe in what seemed like one paragraph and the voices were not differentiated enough to get the jump oWhere was the usual character depth? Beauty? I miss Clara. I hope the former style returns or I'll skip Audible (also a few grammar errors in the opening)

Great story and reader

Josephine Tey is a beautiful crafter with words The story unfolds perfectly with winning characterizations and details The reader is wonderful, not overdoing the voices but pacing the exciting passages so well A winner!

Worth it but uncomfortable themes

Revisado: 11-20-23

As always the story is exciting engaging and well performed with predictable events but I was uncomfortable with the sun theme of potential incest and the vengeance of the hero Usually the criminals are the sadidtic ones

Not as good as the usual Aird

Revisado: 06-18-23

Some stories are interesting or funny but several are dull or confusing The Production is awful in that the chapters do not coincide with the start of a new story and there's less than one second pause between stories, adding to the confusion the narrator is not bad but very slow sounds better on 6.2

Overall terrific with minor glitches

I thought Jane Asher fabulous on the women's voices and paced the book well She really acted her voice is a bit high for some of the make voices Unlike another reviewer I can say that Allen is Not pronounced Allen according to the author in one of the books but by mistake many of the readers say Allen very engaging book

Great tale gets bland performance

Revisado: 11-09-21

I loved this book years ago but Amy Molloy bleaches all the suspense out of it with slow pacing and unchanging inflection unless she's doing a change of local accent. She also mispronounces a lot including peonies, tomatoes, resentful. Shouldn't the director catch this?
