The Unkindness of Ravens

De: M. E. Hilliard

Narrado por: Madeleine Lambert

Greer Hogan is a librarian and an avid reader of murder mysteries. She also has a habit of stumbling upon murdered bodies. The first was her husband's, and the tragic loss led Greer to leave New York behind for a new start in the Village of Raven Hill. But her new home becomes less idyllic when she discovers her best friend sprawled dead on the floor of the library.

Was her friend's demise related to two other deaths that the police deemed accidental? Do the residents of this insular village hold dark secrets about another murder, decades ago? Does a serial killer haunt Raven Hill?

As the body count rises, Greer's anxious musings take a darker turn when she uncovers unexpected and distressing information about her own husband's death...and the man who went to prison for his murder. She is racked with guilt at the possibility that her testimony may have helped to convict an innocent man.

And even though Greer admires the masters of deduction she reads about in books, she never expected to have to solve a mystery herself. Fortunately, she possesses a quick wit and a librarian's natural resourcefulness. But will that be enough to protect her from a brilliant, diabolical murderer?

And even if Greer manages to catch the Raven Hill killer, will living with her conscience prove a fate worse than death?

Cozi

I appreciate no vulgarity of either sex or violence, or verbiage. It makes me feel I can trust the author to tell a good story without resorting to the cheap.

wouldn't recommend to friends.

I had a hard time staying with the book as it didn't hold my interest. the narrator seemed disconnected or distanced from the story.

The Worst!

Probably the worst narrator I’ve ever listened to, and I’m and avid audiobook listener. She was so bad it made the story hard to follow as there was no distinction between thoughts in the main character’s head, words she voiced, or words spoken by other characters. I think the story was probably well done and interesting, but listening to it read as though the narrator was reading the encyclopedia made it all a painful experience. The next book in the series has a different narrator, so I plan to give that a try.

terrible narrator

The narrator was flat and just terrible - hard to get past it. I couldn't. I will need to read the bookinstead.
