Deadly Decisions

A Novel

By: Kathy Reichs

Narrated by: Lorelei King

Stepping into the world of forensic anthropologist Dr. Temperance Brennan, star of Kathy Reichs' electrifyingly authentic best sellers.

When innocent blood is spilled, she deciphers the shattering truth it holds.

Nine-year-old Emily Anne Toussaint is fatally shot on a Montreal street. A North Carolina teenager disappears from her home, and parts of her skeleton are found hundreds of miles away. The shocking deaths propel Tempe Brennan from north to south, and deep into a shattering investigation inside the bizarre culture of outlaw motorcycle gangs - where one misstep could bring disaster for herself or someone she loves.

Love

This was probably one of the best narrations. I would’ve like more feeling in some parts, but the narrators voice was perfect; no smoker voice and breathing.
Love all of Reichs’ books and this one was great to listen to

Good story, best reader of the series so far.

I drive 10 hrs a day and keep audible in business LoL.

I hate when the reader in a series is changed this reader has been the best of this series so far.

the story is good I like that Kit plays a major role, but it is a bit more predictable than the first 2.

A little disappointing

Where does Deadly Decisions rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Not at the top of my list--and I LOVE this series

What did you like best about this story?

Interesting how the saga of the characters continues.

Did Lorelei King do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

I found her attempts at accents to be distracting.

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

Maybe in 2 sittings!

Any additional comments?

Lots of detail and explanation given to Dr Brennan that I would expect she would already know. May have been done for reader's benefit, but most were read by narrator very quick and flat and lowered quality of the "read".

Lorelei king should narrate everything

this story is amazing and Lorelei king really brings Tempe to life in this reading

Wonderful

Audio performance was superb. Best performance yet. I hope this actor carries through the series.

Really Great Reading

This is the 5th Kathy Reichs book I've read, and while I really like Temperance Brennan, this book wasn't my favorite. It was hard for me to get into the outlaw motorcycle gang topic.

Okay, but a bit dry

This one just didn't hold my attention this time. A good listen, just not the best.

Decent story, poorly performed

What did you love best about Deadly Decisions?

I am a fan of all Kathy Reichs Temperance Brennan books. I especially appreciate audiobooks because I can listen in the car - and I am in the car A LOT.

Would you be willing to try another one of Lorelei King’s performances?

NO - this is an AWFUL listen. I actually considered stopping, because of how poorly it was read. Making your voice louder or softer is not all that is needed to hear the tone, inflection, pacing and pattern of a good book. Spoken pieces should not sound exactly the same as description pieces. This was absolutely an awful listen.

Any additional comments?

I highly recommend any of Reich's books read by Linda Emmond or Katherine Borowitz.

plot twists

i love the auther and the performance was great. left me hoping andrew ryan survived

ANOTHER SOLID KATHY REICHS STORY

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

YES. IF THE FRIEND WAS A FAN OF KATHY REICHS OR PATRICIA CORNWELL. BOTH AUTHORS GO INTO LABORIOUS DETAIL ABOUT THEIR WORK IN THE LAB.

What other book might you compare Deadly Decisions to and why?

THE BOOK IS VERY MUCH LIKE KATHY REICHS OTHER STORIES OR ANY OF PATRICIA CORNWELL'S BOOKS.

Which character – as performed by Lorelei King – was your favorite?

"TEMPE" THE MAIN CHARACTER. SHE'S DEDICATED AND DETERMINED

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

No. I listened in small doses.
