Teaser

So good that it left me wanting hours more. Would have rated higher if it had been longer.

To Die For

Rachel Bavidge is a wonderful narrator but is unable to rescue this week tale of rivalry. Lacks suspense. A short audio book that so forgotten half way through.

Not so gripping or chilling.

according to the description the story is a gripping chilling Thriller. I did not find it gripping or chilling or a thriller. The performance was fantastic comma the story just did not keep my attention. I have no problems listening to two other books in between the short 11 chapter story.

Confused... Is it over?

I don't know if I missed something or what but I feel like the story ended in the middle...? Good story line and good narrating, left wanting more.

It's like getting only the first 2 chapters of a book

I thoroughly enjoyed the performance and the story appeared to be the beginning of a great detective novel and then it's just over. Only a beginning. No middle. No end.

I didn't find it that interesting

I actually was looking for a cool story with interesting twists, but actually I couldn't connect anything... I wouldn't recommend it

Good, and short

It was good, not amazing. The ambiance was stressful, but I had trouble getting the characters differentiated. The tone was right though. I liked how it was short and concise.

stolen from a real case

Almost no imagination used here. the involvement of the brother was probably the only added dimension. A lazy effort but well-read.
