About this listen
AN OLD HOUSE...A DEAD BODY...AND A MYSTERIOUS YOUNG WOMAN. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE PAST MEETS THE PRESENT?
A mysterious young woman arrives in the small town of Shady Pines to renovate a beautiful old bed and breakfast, but is that her only reason for coming?
Misty Raven is on a mission, but she soon gets distracted when a body is discovered buried in the backyard of the bed and breakfast she just purchased. Could it be related to a murder that happened in the house fifteen years ago? While Misty searches for answers, someone doesn't want the truth uncovered and tries to stop her. When two more people are murdered, Misty realizes that she'll be next if she doesn't keep one step ahead of the killer. Can she solve the mystery before it's too late?
Amazon review - "Such a good mystery!! I had no clue who the killer was until the very end. Can’t wait till the second book becomes available."
Amazon review - " Wonderfully written mystery that moves along with captivating action and intrigue!"
Amazon review - "This book was an awesome read. It left you wondering what was going to happen on every page. Looking forward to the next book in this series."

Story
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Nathan Tyler is an unassuming professor at a middling American university with a rather obscure specialty in mathematics—in short, a nobody from nowhere. So why is the White House calling? Summoned to Washington, DC, for a top-secret briefing, Nathan discovers that he’s the key to a massive foreign intelligence breakthrough. Reading between the lines of a cryptic series of equations, he could open a door straight into the heart of the Kremlin and change the global balance of power forever.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

After the killing of a prominent mob lawyer, NYPD homicide detectives Jacob Jackson and Caitlin Grimes start receive chilling, written “rules” for how to commit the perfect murder. "Rule number one for the perfect murder: Evidence is your enemy. Leave none behind."

It was not the piles of garbage that lined the streets, remnants of a just-ended strike, although the odor that hung in the air was part of it. What made Danny hesitate was a specific bag of garbage to her right, inside a tent, the contents of which was about to ruin her day. But what Danny ...

Well, it's a freebie read by an AI.
I guess you get what you pay for. The AI voice is not lilting and does not move into the background like human voices do. A different part of my brain has to interpret it, and it's distracting. I'm not really a fan.
The story was ok, your typical cozy mystery. I like those for easy listening while I work, but the buzzy tone of the robot reader was distracting and kept me from focusing on my work.

Story was interesting. AI didn't go as well.
Overall the book was good enough to have to hear the next part. Wasn't to fond of long pauses at beginning of each chapter. The AI definitely needs a major tune up. Wasn't completely awful, but makes a big difference.

Compelling Story
While I loved the story itself the virtual voice fails to invite you into the story and portray the emotions of the characters. The tones and inflections fall flat as if in monotone making listening a bit of a grind.

Interesting story, but ...
Interesting story, but the AI narration takes a lot away from it. Also, more editing would have helped the story, as the protagonist seemed to repeat herself/her feelings multiple times throughout.

Fantastic story full of twists and turns.
Love all the misdirection surrounding the murderer, it really kept me guessing. I cannot wait to read the next book in the series.
I do not care for the computer voice there is no differentiation between character voices but worse the emotion conveyed by the writer’s words gets completely lost.
I highly recommend you read this book (not listen to it.)

Stick to human readers
I liked the story, but the computer generated reader wasn’t good at all. Human inflection and intonation is what makes listening enjoyable.
