The Keepsake

By: Mary Burton

Narrated by: Jennifer Riker

Murder is not a one-size-fits-all crime. People kill for many reasons. Revenge. Jealously. Hate. Even love. Officer Georgia Morgan with the Nashville Police Department Forensics Unit didn’t generally care about motivation behind a killing. That was big picture. She cared about the micro picture: hair fibers, fingerprints, DNA, and all the other minute details that proved guilt or innocence. Homicide Detective Jake Bishop was her opposite. He saw the forest, not the trees. Sure, he’d use Georgia’s forensic work in the courtroom to sway a jury, but when it came to day-to-day investigations, it took a back seat. With the clock ticking to catch a killer, Bishop didn’t wait for backed-up state labs or fingerprint analysis.

Loved it-give me more!

Good appetizer but I crave more, Burton knows how to hook the reader. Can’t wait for more!

Writing an excellent short story requires talent!

Thanks to Audible listener Charles Atkinson for his review of this short story. It is a complete story in a mere 21 minutes. There are six other short stories in the Cold-Blooded series written by different authors but all narrated by Jennifer Riker.

great series

I checked out book one and had to follow through the series. hoping that's not all to come in this series.

Too Short, but Great + a Gateway to Someone New

Far too short, I thought this was an entire book, then realized once it was in my library that it was only 20 odd minutes long. I decided to check it out anyways, and it’s good. I want MORE!
*chuckles*..it has been an unusual way (for me at least), to discover a new to me Author, but I’m glad I did...I look forward to listening to one of her full length books..

Give this a Listen, like Me, this may end up being Your gateway to a new and interesting Author....Enjoy!, I did...

Not believable

The DNA evidence could easily be explained by any good defense attorney. The detectives should have tried to obtain a confession.

Short and to the point

Short but good. Ended immediately, when usually there's something after the story. Pretty complete for such a short story.

A Great Police Interrogation

A short story that covers 19 years? Brilliant! Smart police work in one heck of a interrogation. I’d love to hear more from the detective !

Is it really over?!!

The storyline is good… it just seemed to come to an abrupt end. I will still consider other offerings by the author!

nothing

couldn't get past Chapter one kept going back even asked for help not my phone

Do not waste your time/money/credit

I saw this as a series and since I like Mary Burton I got all three. What I didn’t pay attention to : this is ONLY 20 MINUTES LONG. It’s not a book, it’s not even a short story it’s a blurb. I thought it skipped or downloaded wrong. Nope. Totally disgusted. Shame on audible for charging anything for this.
