Not Much Light at the End of the Hall

I honestly wasn't quite sure what the story was about. It seemed to jump around a bit and seemed to have a hard time staying with one plot. I wasn't sure what one piece had to do with the others and just when I thought the story was about one character, it shifted to another. I listened to the story twice, and while it made more sense the second time, the plot still seemed a bit erratic. I think it had potential, just didn't have a light at the end of the hallway.

Eddie Leonard Jr did a good job with the narration. I have heard him before and have enjoyed his narrations. He didn't put the energy into the story that I think authors who narrate their own stories should, but I still thought he did a good job.

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

This had great potential

This started out with an interesting story unfortunately it became dull and mundane.

Sometimes less is more in character development and care should be taken not to bore the listener.

There were many ways this tale could have gone terrifically suspenseful. The story was predictable, no surprises.

I often found that authors that narrate their own work do not do well at it.

Narrators are actors that can make a story come to life.

This narration was flat, had a lot of background noises, and the speech was hesitant and bland.

Wild Ride!

edge-of-your-seat mystery, Thrills, twists, and turns, from beginning to end. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves a good psychological Thriller. You will not be disappointed ! I also love when the author narrates the book. well spoken and read.
