I found this book on a whim and now I think the book gods like me! I don't know when I last listened to such an engaging story with such expertly crafted narration!! I was slightly peeved that there was a book two but not yet available.

The main character is human but with the stuff of legends. This story didn't get too stuck in the weeds, which I appreciate. The character stayed true to the person presented in chapter one and didn't do anything stupid or against character to propel the story forward. (I so hate that!)

The crime, the police work, and the finale were insanely good. Man, I hate having to wait to jump back into this world!

This. Book. Was. So. Good.

This book grabbed me early and I wasn't able to put it down until the very satisfying ending.

As crime books go, this book is definitely up there with the greats. The narrator though is the holy grail for how to narrate this genre!!

Patterson absolutely nailed the vocals. It felt like being in the room with these people.

To be honest, I downloaded this book because it was free and because I loved the cover art. Imagine my surprise to discover it was an excellent listen, with some great characters, and an insanely good series of stories.

You don't have to be into the fae or mystical worlds to love this series; the stories deliver on their own.

I have listened to every single book in this series and I am so bummed that there is not another listen (although, with the way this story ended, I am hoping there is one.)

Nate Shepherd is the kind of character that you very much wish was real. He loves and lives. He is decent and funny. He has a family we should all aspire to have. And he's a legal genius.

Every book pitted him against a formidable opponent. Nate was, for the most part, pretty sure his client didn't do it. The system did not always agree. Listening to Nate struggle with his own sense of morality and right and wrong was a treat. No, he wasn't a saint. He was human, and that makes him more than.

Loved, loved, loved this series!!!

This is the kind of listen that Audible Originals are made for. In just over an hour, the story was complete, well-narrated, and a great whodunnit.

I loved The Good Daughter so finding this as a prequel was extra special.

Loved the story. Loved the characters. Slaughter is easily one of my favorite authors. SHe continually delivers time and time and time again.

I was so completely engrossed in this story that towards the ending, I was pacing in my room constantly saying "No way" on a repetitive loop.

Great listen. Great narration. Great ending.

If you like Molly Harper books, especially Harper's Mystic Bayou series, you will love this listen. This paranormal cozy mystery hits on all facets and is elevated by some seriously good narration.

The story involves a nod to the nostalgic since the main character owns a video rental store (remember those?) That's the first smile. Then the supernatural townsfolk are introduced and the fun begins.

The narrator is the real reason this story soars. The character voices are very inventive and unique, which is a must with supernatural content.

Ray Porter fans are in for a treat with this listen! Every single word in this book is a diary entry (no surprise there) and the author and narrator combined to make this story rich and wonderful.

Dusty is a dooms day survivor with a cheeky look at the world he now inhabits, His words are written for whomever or whatever survives him. His observations and survival skills are a great listen, delivered by one of the best narrators in the business. It seriously takes talent to be a single voice reading diary entries and making that a mist-listen. Porter made it look easy.

This was a great book from start to finish!! It started out with such a unique opening that I knew I was in for a treat.

I must say though that what I liked the best was the ending. I won't give anything away but the author needs to be commended for that alone!!
