The two main characters were both grown ups but amateurs at romance.

I came upon this book because I am a huge fan of Gildart Jackson, the narrator.
I could listen to him anytime all the time. I highly recommend Peter Granger’s mysteries which he narrates.
I was glad I came upon Candace Camp. She is a good writer and kept me interested throughout. But his narration was as always, the best.

I want to take from this book the way Luna exercised self control but especially control over her own happiness. She never forgot how important and how much she liked her job. Sucked it up when she was being treated badly and focused on her own inner happiness and what was important in life.

I enjoyed the book and getting to know the Dales and the team working with Harry. Looking forward to the next book in the series. The narrator was excellent with his gruff voice that could turn into a young woman quite well. I thought he was perfect for the book.

This book was good, I wanted to listen nonstop but my reality won’t accommodate that, so I found time every chance I had free. Th narrator, Daisy Ridley, was wonderful. I will look for more of her books. My only objection was the ending felt rushed.

Susan is more than a bit prickly and quite rigid in her habits and dress.

She’s not particularly likable, a few old friends from Uni and and bad family relations to boot. But the author, Sarah Haywood, captured me from the beginning and made me care about this woman that had a childhood that was good looking on the outside but amazing that anyone could have their head on straight after living through it. I stayed interested in Susan and her sudden life changes from beginning to end. Well worth the credit.

I’ve read three randomly in the Peter Diamond series and have enjoyed all of them. Simon Prebble is a marvelous performer and brings the Inspector to life. I can’t wait o try another in this series.

Peter Grainger is a British treasure and Gildart Jackson is one of the most talented narrators I have listened to. His voice is so very wonderful.
I have enjoyed all of Grainger’s books and am sorry to have reached the end, at least for now.

While I found this book a bit melancholy it kept me staying up later and later to be with D. C. and delight in his sense of humor and appreciate the way his mind works.
The Irish and their land was wonderful. They have a passion for life that makes people jealous of them. I really thought the end of the story was written beautifully. Gildart Jackson was a true master and I could hang around that voice all the time.

32 hours is a marathon of a book and rare is a book that can keep one interested and invested in the story straight through. I love this series and have read all the previous books in the series but because of the pandemic I thought listening to something might help me sleep better. That’s a laugh! I never wanted to turn it off but needed to try for 8hrs so ended up going to bed earlier and earlier.
Give a listen to this one. Robert Glenister was brilliant. Simply a very gifted reader and I have almost a hundred in my library, and he is one of the tops.
