The Murder of Thora Chamberlain

A Shocking True Crime Story

By: Rod Kackley

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

November 2, 1945: On her way to a high school football game with friends, a fourteen-year-old girl vanishes after driving away with a man who says he needs a babysitter.

The FBI unleashes its top kidnapping expert, an agent who helped bring John Dillinger down. Will that be enough to find the girl and her abductor?

Agents chase the suspected kidnapper from California to Illinois and back again.

Arrested in Los Angeles, he admits abducting the child. He also tells the FBI he killed the girl and threw her body into the Pacific Ocean. A search for her corpse proves fruitless.

Then, when all hope is lost, authorities discover the skeleton of another young woman who's fallen victim to this madman.

Ready for another twist? The wife of the man who made that discovery is found dead at the bottom of the cliff.

During the accused killer's trial, women around the country fall in love with the handsome monster and literally break down the doors of a courthouse to get close to him.

Wild enough for you? Wait. After the child's killer is convicted and sentenced to the gas chamber, a scientist shows up and says he can bring the murderer back from the dead.

The Murder of Thora Chamberlain: A Shocking True Crime Story: This is the wildest, most shocking, true crime story you've ever read.

Virtual voice is terrible

I had to try it, and the book was free. The story was interesting but was narrated by virtual voice, which was awful. Words were mispronounced, stress placed on the wrong words, not to mention monotone. I will not download another book with virtual voice!

Death by A. I

The reading was stilted and awkward at times. The story itself was fascinating but I was totally distracted by the narration.

hate fake narration

the computer generated narration is okay for roughly 10 minutes ... then it makes me want to throw my phone out the window
please give subscribers a choice ... human or machine .... please

Strange sounding as it’s not human voice

Started this book and the voice was distracting. On a flight, this was the only downloaded book that would pop up so I did listen. BUT did not enjoy the virtual. The book/true story was good.

fake narrator

The virtual narrator is very distracting. I wouldn’t have listened to it except it was free.

the ai narrator,

I could not feel the human emotion I usually feel with a human narrator.

Virtual Voice

Really don't care for the narration by the virtual voice. It's not terrible, but it's takng me awhile to get used to it. There is SOME inflection but not as if a human were actually reading it.

TERRIBLE Book and Narrator

I cannot say enough bad things about this horrible book. It seems almost like it was written by a sixth grader, copying down every line from various dime novels and old gangster movies. The book skips all over the place, and it goes into the most ridiculous things; for example, the narrator reads a line from a newspaper that there may be a butter shortage. Aside from being completely boring, covering a story that could be done in one paragraph, it goes on and on and on with more than 60 chapters chopped up into little bits from various days in the 1940s. To make a very bad thing even more terrible, there's the computer narration. A computer cannot get the inflections right of the human voice. It is impossible to convey in words how horrible this experience of this audiobook was, and then to top it all off, it stops in the middle of the last chapter and never even finishes.
