Story4 out of 5 stars 33
Machu Picchu is one of South America's best tourist spots, and the ruins have even been voted one of the Seven New Wonders of the World. But even though Machu Picchu is now the best known of all Incan ruins, its function in Incan civilization is still not clear. Some have speculated that it was an outpost or a frontier citadel, while others believe it to be a sanctuary or a work center for women. Still others suggest that it was a ceremonial center or perhaps even the last refuge of the Incas after the Spanish conquest.

Wanted a quick review on Machu Picchu, it was quick for sure as the reader/narrator is reading this with no emotions nor pause. Highly monotonous, making the listen, boring and distracting. If not for the narrator, the content is insightful however, lost most of the details as the narrator speeds through and doesn’t give us a chance to absorb nor enjoy the writing.

In 1999, Emmon Bodfish was murdered in his home in the wealthy enclave of Orinda, California, just east of San Francisco. For the young crime-scene analyst Paul Holes, it quickly became the most bizarre and surprising case of his storied career. It was immediately clear how Emmon had died: by being hit over the head with a heavy object. What wasn’t clear was who did it and why.

I liked this series. Well thought and well executed. Good story. I was thoroughly engrossed with the story from the first episode. I wanted to finish all series as soon as I can. I was busy but I still finished it within 2 days. Impressed with the investigators’ dedication to the case.
