Story
The Girl of Sugar Beach is the most watched documentary in television history - a riveting, true-life mystery that unfolds over 12 weeks and centers on a fascinating question: Did Grace Sebold murder her boyfriend, Julian, while on a Spring Break vacation, or is she a victim of circumstance and poor police work? Grace has spent the last 10 years in a St. Lucian prison, and reaches out to filmmaker Sidney Ryan in a last, desperate attempt to prove her innocence. As Sidney begins researching, she uncovers issues that were all overlooked during the original investigation.

I like the story line. It's interesting and keeps you wanting more. Unfortunately narrator was pretty bad too. She sounded like she is going to faint in some moments, super fake in others. Ok, book, though.

Story
Juliet only wanted to see her childhood home one more time–to look at it from the street. She never intended to meet the new owners, let alone talk her way into a position as their new live-in nanny. But it's too late now to tell the truth about who she really is. Six-year-old Kitty has progressive mutism and cannot speak. Nobody knows why she keeps making silent phone calls to the police. Juliet makes it her mission to find out. As Juliet settles into the house, nostalgia for her childhood gives way to uneasiness, as troubling memories surface.

This one of the best books I read or rather listen to in last few years . Beautiful writing, fascinating story line and super engaging narration. I cannot believe this book was free. I am looking forward to more books by this author. I very highly recommend it.

Story
An activist attorney is killed in a cute little L.A. trolley called Angels Flight, far from Harry Bosch's Hollywood turf. But the case is so explosive - and the dead man's enemies inside the L.A.P.D. are so numerous - that it falls to Harry to solve it. Now the streets are superheating. Harry's year-old Vegas marriage is unraveling. And the hunt for a killer is leading Harry to another high-profile L.A. murder case, one where every cop had a motive. The question is, did any have the guts?

Connolly does not disappoint with this one either but the narrator is horrendous! I almost quit listening. Monotonous voice, no punctuation and just plain awful.

Good story again, though I enjoyed the first book the most . Anyway, this one is also worth listening to. Unfortunately, I really did not care for Whoopy Goldbergh narration at all. I was surprised how monotonous it is. Not greast at all.

This is not even close as good a first book. Too slow and too predictable, at least for me. I really like book 1 narration. This one is annoying. Is readable but only 3 stars from me this time.

The weakest of Kubica books.
Reviewed: 01-24-24
I read all of Mary Kubica books and this one is repetive and kind of annoying, to be honest. Narration, especially Heidi, is incredibly aggravating. Every sentence ends with the same "hung" voice and sounds like she might faint. So, so awful. I'm glad I read other books before that one as I would never if thought all the others are as boring. 3 stars is more than fair.

Descent read again by Gemma Rogers, but this time, the narrator really takes half of the joy away. I had a hatd time finishing as I was so awful to listen to her.
