Historia
When retired FBI Agent Patrick Henderson calls in an 'X-Ray Sierra India' incident, the operator doesn't understand. He tells them to pass it up the chain till someone does. That person is FBI Special Agent Kimberley Reynolds. Leaving Quantico for snowbound Northern Wisconsin, she finds that a tornado has flattened half the town—and there's no sign of Henderson. Things soon go from weird to worse, as neighbors report unsettling sightings, key evidence goes missing, and the snow keeps rising—cutting off the town, with no way in or out . . .

Good story; annoying performance
Revisado: 03-09-25
I’m a fan of Aaronovitch’s Rivers of London series, and while good, this story lacks their charm; the characters just aren’t as engaging. The voice actor of the London-based series, Kobna Holdbrook-Smith is excellent. Unfortunately, I found Penelope Rawlins’ performance rather annoying. Her Bill Boyd sounded perpetually stuffed up and definitely female. She had odd mispronunciations scattered throughout, adding an r to parka so it came out parker. A fish fillet was with a pronounced final t. She constantly pulled me out of the story. It’s worth reading, but if it’s an option get the print version and skip this audiobook.

Historia
Meet Augustus Berrycloth-Young—fop, flaneur, and Englishman abroad—as he chronicles the Jazz Age from his perch atop the city that never sleeps. That is, until his old friend Thomas Nightingale arrives, pursuing a rather mysterious affair concerning an old saxophone—which will take Gussie from his warm bed, to the cold shores of Long Island, and down to the jazz clubs where music, magic, and madness haunt the shadows . . .

Excellent

I was worried this would lack the charm of Rivers of London, but it was similarly excellent. The voices are spot on, the characters engaging and endearing, and the plot tight.

Historia
The Christmas trees in Knightsbridge sparkle with festive joy, and there’s nothing more fun than Christmas cocktail parties to ring in the new year of 1922. Camille Divine, known as Lady Camille Divine, has decorated her little house in Birdcage Mews with glistening decorations and a beautiful Christmas tree, but she has more on her mind than the festive season.

Badly written, badly read.
Revisado: 05-13-23
Maudlin, amateurish, and predictable story made worse by a highly annoying voice actor.
And why does the daughter have a French accent; she sounds like she stepped from the cast of ‘Allo, Allo.
