Vanishing Hour

De: Laura Griffin

Narrado por: Julia Atwood

Corporate lawyer Ava Burch has had enough of the big city and the daily grind. She grew up with her father, who raised search-and-rescue dogs, in rural Texas and has moved to the small town of Cuervo to spend time in the dry, rugged wilderness near Big Bend National Park. When she and her dog, Huck, discover an abandoned campsite on a volunteer search-and-rescue mission, she’s perplexed, but she carefully photographs it all the same.

All Grant Wycoff can see when he looks at Ava is a city slicker—with her designer jeans and shiny car—who has no business on a serious team made of seasoned outdoorsmen and retired cops. But when she tells him of her findings on the trail, he sees there’s more to her than meets the eye.

Ava’s discovery reminds Grant of the unsolved case of a young woman who went missing two years ago. As they look into the campsite further, another woman disappears under odd circumstances. With time running out, Ava and Grant must work against the brutal heat from both the Texas sun and their own electric chemistry to solve the case.

Great suspense

I love the story line and how there are surprises thrown in. The emotional connection with characters is good . The romance is also good

Vanishing hr review

Story was good , narrators monotone whispery talking when not in character was weird and took a little getting used to.

Very fun read!

It was fun to try to piece together the clues of the mystery. Very good read and the smut was a pleasant surprise.

Good book

Interesting plot. Enjoyed the pace of it! Good narrative, kept me wanting to hear more!

Great story

I liked the story a lot and the narrative was good but I felt like I often got the female characters confused because they sounded the same.

Average; main characters a little unbelievable

I thought the missing hikers storyline was pretty good but I thought there were several holes which I will not get into here because of spoilers. I agree with a previous reviewer with regard to the narrator At the beginning of the book, I thought I might have to return it because of her whispery, overly suspenseful voice. Once she started to take on the voices of the characters, I thought her narration was much better.

horrible voice

I'm not even sure if the story was good bc the voice put me to sleep.
