WOW!

This was one of best! The twist and turns ... I had no idea. Great book!

Love her books!

This book is one I will listen to over and over! Love her books! Jan reads them well.

Fun story!

Fun story, good narration, kept me guessing til the end. Of course I'm a fan of these light mysteries & this one was another good MHC story.

Always a nice read

Would you consider the audio edition of Daddy's Gone A Hunting to be better than the print version?

As a busy mom being able to have the audio version of this book was great. I was able to listen on my commute to work, while doing housework and when getting ready to go to bed. Print versions are good, but being "read to" while doing mundane chores is way better!

What other book might you compare Daddy's Gone A Hunting to and why?

It is similar to Mary Higgins Clark's other books, but I own all of them, so I guess she is doing something right.

Which scene was your favorite?

Kate's experiences and flashes of memory while in a coma was interesting.

predictable

I love marry higgins clark books, but this one was a waste of a credit.

None

What about Jan Maxwell’s performance did you like?

She was good and did great job of using voice tones to describe the characters.

Any additional comments?

I gave the book 5 stars because I did enjoy it.The reader was good but the sentences were too long for the sentecnce to flow smoothly for any reader. Too much information was given at one time of the characters. More info could have been reveled as the story unfolded.There were too many characters with only a small role in the book but they too had too much history making it too "wordy".

Just fair - not MHC's best by far

I was very excited to read a new MHC book but I was very disappointed with this one. The story and overall was just "fair". Had it not been for the narrator I am not sure I would have finished this one.

Not her usual plots and interesting characters at all.

The title of the book did not even seem to fit.

Hoping for more from this usually great author.

Excellent read

This was a story that kept my interest!! Excellent story line! I would definitely recommend this book!

Great Book

Loved it, didn't see the end coming! I recommend this book to everyone to read!

Interesting

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

The book yes, but not the narrator!

What did you like best about this story?

I always like Mary Higgins Clark, she keeps you guessing to the end!

Did Jan Maxwell do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

I thought she did well with the female voices however the male voices were horrible! They all had a whine not at all easy to listen to. I will not buy any more books with her narration.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No
