Story4.5 out of 5 stars 197
It’s the hottest day of the 1976 heatwave and there’s not a breath of fresh air in the labour ward at Lincoln County Hospital. Michelle is having her fourth child, a girl, while beloved husband Dean is sipping a cold pint in the pub. Their little house is already bursting at the seams, but Michelle is sure they’ll find a way to stretch their budget and continue life as a blissfully chaotic happy family. They name their new baby Donna.

There were no villains in this story. I found myself rooting for all of them to find resolution to the heart rending situation they were dealing with, the possibility of babiess being switched at birth.

Defense attorney Mickey Haller is back, taking the long shot cases, where the chances of winning are one in a million. He agrees to represent a woman in prison for killing her husband, a sheriff’s deputy. Despite her conviction four years earlier, she still maintains her innocence.

Reviewing the case, Bosch sees something that doesn’t add up, and a sheriff’s department intent on bringing a quick search for justice in the killing of one of its own.

Suspense and captivating story
Reviewed: 03-02-24
The element of suspense as the story unfolds with twists and turns is a hallmark of Michael Connelly's writing as well as his character development. I had a hard time turning off
the audible recording and finished the story in record time!

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 21,036
More than 15 years after the events of The Handmaid's Tale, the theocratic regime of the Republic of Gilead maintains its grip on power, but there are signs it is beginning to rot from within. At this crucial moment, the lives of three radically different women converge, with potentially explosive results. Two have grown up as part of the first generation to come of age in the new order. The testimonies of these two young women are joined by a third: Aunt Lydia. Her complex past and uncertain future unfold in surprising and pivotal ways.

very gory & far fetched

The author is a very good storyteller but I found this tale hard to believe. American women would never allow themselves to be dominated in such a depraved way.

The author's description of characters, events, scenery and story is wonderful and the narrator's interpretation is mezmerizing. I could listen to him all day.

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.

Lots of scientific jargon, but I didn't have to really grasp it to get into the story which moved along with wonder, suspense, humor, and pathos. the narrator was the best I have ever heard and captured the the personalities perfectly!

And a zealous, bigoted tyrant has won his way into the White House. Directly opposed is Lauren Olamina, founder of Earthseed - a new faith that teaches "God Is Change". Persecuted for "heathen" beliefs as much as for having a Black female leader, Earthseed's followers face a life-and-death struggle to preserve their vision.

Unforgettable story

and eerily prophetic as are many great works of science fiction. Lauren Oya Olamina's story told in this two book series is both shatteringly brutal and exhilaratingly hopeful.
