Ghost of Truth

Medium Trouble, Book 2

By: Alice Winters

Narrated by: Greg Boudreaux

Hiro

When I first realized that I could see the dead, I never imagined that it would allow me to help save the lives of others, or pull me into Detective Maddox Booker’s path. Through my ability, ghosts have become some of my greatest friends and allies.

But now, someone’s dead, and his ghost is gone. Ghosts have sought my help for my entire life, wanting to be heard. Now, something is keeping them quiet, almost hostile. as our search for the ghost of the dead man leads us to a small village. Even though everything looks normal on the outside, I’m starting to wonder what’s happening on the inside.

Maddox

Life is better than it’s ever been. Hiro’s by my side, and has brought my best friend Reggie back into my life - if we can consider Reggie’s harassment (even as a ghost) a positive. And even Hiro’s horde of ghosts won’t keep me from asking him to move in with me. The only issue is that, work is never quiet, especially when Hiro is able to dive into a whole new side of a case by speaking to the victims of the dead.

But, when someone takes Hiro from me in the middle of the night, I know that I will do absolutely anything to get him back, and I will make them pay for what they’ve done.

Ghost of Truth is full of action, mystery, humor, and romance. Though more is planned for this couple, the mystery is solved - and there is a happy ending.

Can't wait for the next book

Loved it. The story and the narration. Thjs series is my favorite and I'm glad it came to Audible.

Great story

I loved it from star to the end and hated it for it to when it ended look forward to a hopefully to a start stalment of the series each character was bought alive by Greg and the way he read it and the author made the story the story Exciting at every chapter that I heard

Great Book Made Even Better

Alice and Greg are an unbeatable duo of writer and narrator. Seriously I love this book (and series), I’ve read it several times and didn’t think it could get better. Then I listened to it! Greg makes the characters come to life, the voices for each character are distinct and apt. It felt like I was living the book instead of reading it. I highly recommend giving the book a read or at least a listen, or be like me and do both!

Just a fun book

I love all the characters. The mystery is fun and engaging. Like I said just a fun book.

Another highly enjoyable installment in the Medium

The narrator did a great job. Another highly enjoyable installment in the Medium Trouble series by Alice Winters. I'm looking forward to the next book in this series.

don't judge a book by its cover

This book series has stupid titles and dumb covers and going into the first one, i thought it'd be cheesy and cringey and worth nothing more than brief entertainment. I am quite pleased to say I was wrong. I listened to the first one within 2 days and immediately got this one. The performance is great, the humor while crude never failed to make me laugh or roll my eyes (in a good way!), and the story was fun and inventive while still leaning into well-worn tropes and murder mystery elements. I was genuinely on the edge of my seat during the (mild spoiler though it's implied in the summary) kidnapping scene and felt my heart race during the climax. I'll definitely return to this book series with much enthusiasm and recommend it to anyone who will listen because it deserves to be big.

Again with the awesome narrator that gives this book such audio life.

Again, this author is great. The characters seem so real and authentic. I found it hard to put the book down. The end I found a bit rushed and with all the characters I'd forgotten about who was who which made it a bit confusing. I was a bit confused about the character's (who i shall not name) ability but I'd also been distracted during that part of the story. Excellent series.

Everything Good and Wonderful

Alice Winters is nothing but pure wonder. Feeling happy? She’ll make you happier. Feeling sad? She’ll make you happier. Feeling mad? She’ll make you happier. Her characters, her humor, her everything is, well, it’s everything. I wish I could write the words that would make everyone flock to her feel good awesomeness.
And Greg… he is and remains one of my favorite narrators of all time and this was no exception.

Laugh out loud hilarious

On a road trip I almost had to pull my car off the highway because I was laughing so hard while listening to this

...And I Still Can't Wait For More

This book basically picks up where the first one leaves off, but now pretty much all the local cops, paramedics, and forensic teams know about Hiro's gift, and the list just keeps getting longer. With Hiro's abilities evolving, warring ghosslings, and a new dick detective added to the mix, the stakes have been raised from the first book.

In book two Hiro starts to bite back against the people whole sneer at him and his ability to converse with ghosts. Hiro might be scared about what those outcomes are, but I enjoyed it. Hiro's character keeps getting better and better. Maddox... well, the perverted ghosts and their antics rubbed off on him a little too much? Or not, depending on who is reading it. He seemed to make smarter choices in the first book.

All I know for sure is that this is the first series I actually liked reading from both mc viewpoints (I tend to get attached to the main mc in everything I read and skim any other POVs).

Reggie steals the show throughout the whole book, but I like his character, so that's fine. Still, I love all the characters and their sass and grumpiness, love the story, and love that there's no angst driven by stupid decisions or misunderstandings (though there were a couple questionable choices that thankfully didn't lead to any worse situations). Although I liked the first book a more, because it's more cozy murder mystery solving and this book feels more action movie with the antagonist monologuing most of the events, but I enjoyed both. And hopefully things are just getting started! I really hope Hiro and Maddox's series keeps going for many more books (with those two as the main characters). I'll be sure to preorder if or when it does.

Shout out to Greg Boudreaux - prefect reading as always. He's always able to take a book and bump it up a notch.
