Historia
She calls herself Hope Miller, but she has no idea who she actually is. Fifteen years ago, she was found in a small New Jersey town thrown from an overturned vehicle, with no clue to her identity. Doctors assumed her amnesia was a temporary side effect of her injuries, but she never regained her memory. Hope eventually started a new life with a new name in a new town that welcomed her, yet always wondered what she may have left behind—or been running from. Now, she’s leaving New Jersey to start over once again.

Reseñas editoriales
A former Portland, Oregon District Attorney and the daughter of crime novelist James Lee Burke, Alafair Burke's second novel established her as an exciting voice on the thriller scene. Missing Justice is the second Samantha Kincaid mystery, and given Burke’s background, it’s not surprising that it seems true to life. This time Kincaid has just returned to work after an attempt on her life, only to become embroiled in another major drama when a local judge goes missing. Kincaid's investigation turns up evidence of adultery, foul play, corruption, and other dark secrets that someone in Portland was definitely determined to keep buried. Performer Betty Bobbitt narrates the suspenseful, action-packed story in suitably cool tones.
Reseñas de la Crítica
"The author's background as a former deputy district attorney in Portland lends gritty ambience to this modern parable of greed and ambition." (Booklist)
"Witty and concise dialogue." (Publishers Weekly)

But Samantha Kinkaid is supposed to be a NATIVE OREGONIAN. I usually love an Australian accent, and maybe I could have forgiven it if Betty Bobbit had bothered to look up how to correctly pronounce specific Oregonian terms and locations. It's very distracting!! The one that bugs me most is 'Willamette'. We moved to Oregon in 2000 from Southern CA and we, like Bobbit, pronounced it WillaMETTE. But as soon as we realized the correct pronunciation is Will-A-mette, we changed our ways. In fact I made a little poem to remind myself--- It's Will-A-mette, dammit! There are many, many references to the Willamette River in the Samantha Kinkaid books, and every time Betty says it, I cringe. There are other words too... like once she said 'fill-ett' and I didn't even understand at first until I figured out that she was saying fillet (like a fillet of salmon). I'm not sure if she also says Ore-GONE. But that's a notorious sign of a non-native.
The other part of the narration that bugged me was when she does Samantha's dad. She always has him laughing in a way that sounds like he's choking on food.
This is the first time I've written an Audible review, and I'm not trying to be mean or overly critical. Hopefully this review will be taken, if ever read by Betty Bobbit, as constructive criticism. Before recording, look up the pronunciations of local words.... especially if the main character is a native. None of this would have been relevant if Samantha had relocated from Perth, but she didn't.
I can't take it anymore.....

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
I struggled thru the book. My 1st audible and did not like the voice performance. I did not find the voice overs convincing that this was Portland.What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
A time capsule of Portland in the early 2000's.What didn’t you like about Betty Bobbitt’s performance?
I live in Portland. The reader had an East Coast Accent, could not pronounce the names of neighborhoods, sounded strongly "affected" -- sometimes East Coat accent, sometimes a little British Accent. Not at all Portland, Oregon sounding.Poor choice in reader
