Reseñas de la Crítica

“Paced like a roller-coaster ride, Absolute Revenge invokes the inner workings of a critical care unit coupled with the deranged mind of a serial criminal that races through a tale of vengeance, duplicity, and betrayal—tempered with a touch of romance—in a mad dash from its hospital setting in Miami to the splendors of Italy that will keep you turning pages late into the night.” ~ Karen Neary Smithson, author of the Beth Getty Mystery Series

A Great Story

Attempted murder, an attack, and a poisoned cappuccino kept me going—the lost phone and fake messages had me wanting to know who was behind it all. This is the first thriller by this author that I’ve read (rather, listened to on audio), and I wanted to return to all its twists and turns. The narration was great. I suggest a listening speed of 1.25.

Fast-paced, exciting story!!

Absolute Revenge, an Audiobook by Margie Miklas is the riveting story of Mark and Allison. He’s a detective and she’s a nurse. She’s been set up and her fiancé almost pays the price. There’s a maddening race for them to leave…and the real culprit to follow. The deadly game commences!

Loved this story and the rapid-fire pace of the action! The romance seemed secondary to everything else, but the story is lightening in your veins and exciting!!!

This Audiobook was narrated by Vivienne Leheney, who flawlessly captures the characters’ essences. Thoroughly enjoyable story and the first for me by this author! Excellent!!!

Compelling

A true sociopath with no remorse and almost no feelings except revenge! This despicable person did one bad deed after another and seemed unrepentant and unconscionable in each of these actions. This person was single-minded in their attempts at ruining lives, but in the end they were a weak coward. I hoped they'd finally change, repent,
be an adult or anything human, but they were true to themselves and to their very rotten core to the bitter end. This was an invigorating story that kept my rapt attention to the end. I highly recommend this book. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest opinion. The narrator did a great job bringing it to life.

Great Listen!

I really enjoyed this book as it is so well written. The characters are so real that you feel as if you know them. This is a thriller and sweet romance. The narrator is absolutely amazing! Highly recommended to everyone!

Loved this book!

Margie takes her love of Italy and hospital background and weaves a mystery with many twists and turns. Enjoyed this book just like her previous two medical mysteries!

It was a long ride

It was a long ride and I was glad that, the antagonist finally got what he deserved. I tried to see the story from his pov and fell a little sorry for him, however all the things his did was unredeemable and he never felt sorry for it.
