Story4.5 out of 5 stars 3,672
Back in 1985, Frank Mackey was a nineteen-year-old kid with a dream of escaping his family's cramped flat on Faithful Place and running away to London with his girl, Rosie Daly. But on the night they were supposed to leave, Rosie didn't show. Frank took it for granted that she'd dumped him-probably because of his alcoholic father, nutcase mother, and generally dysfunctional family. He never went home again. Neither did Rosie. Then, twenty-two years later, Rosie's suitcase shows up.

Predictable

Okay story but very predictable. I spotted the killer from the very beginning and was never led anywhere else.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Compelling storyline.

Very compelling storyline but at times overwhelmed by the scientific mumbo jumbo.
Narrator was excellent.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 420
They are the most chronicled family on the face of the globe. Their every move attracts headlines. Scores of books have tried and failed to penetrate the royal facade. Now Kitty Kelley has gone behind palace walls to provide the first three-dimensional, comprehensive, and evenhanded portrait of the men and women who make up the British Royal family.

Narrators voice unpleasant
Reviewed: 06-28-21
I almost stopped listening to this book shortly after starting it, due to the voice of the narrator. She sounds irritated or angry all the time. The story was compelling enough for me to see it through until the end.
I was not aware of a lot of the royal family “affairs” before Diana’s time. That’s when I became interested, being intrigued with her, as so many others were. No real surprises.
They sure were a dysfunctional, pathetic group of people at times.
I’m not sure what the draw is. It’s kind of like coming across a bad accident; you don’t want to look but you can’t help yourself!

This world needs more “troublemakers” like Leah Remini!

Thank you Leah, for having the courage to speak up and telling your story. People like Tom Cruise have a lot of people fooled and have way too much power.
God willing, your story will keep this from happening to others. Bless you and your family.
