I was rocked on the ocean waves in this beautiful, poignant, enveloping saga. The author truly created a classic with this grand work. With each descriptive detail, I feel as if I lived inside Elise and experienced her life. Reaching the end left me wanting more!

Between the narrator's voice and reading style, and the author's writing style with quick-witted humorous commentaries laced into everything, this was a pleasurable listen just for that. Then with the story itself, full of rich detail, well-developed characters, and the requisite careful unfolding of events to resolve the crime, elements make this book an all-around great piece of work, worth listening to or reading -- probably twice!

Narrator spoke in blurbs of words like a rough idling car, but still great listen.

Terribly bleak and monitone style of writing, but I also was unable to stop! Kept hoping history would not repeat itself. But, alas, it did not.

Be forewarned that once you start listening you will not want to pause. Like the rhythmic sounds of a quiet stream, you will feel compelled to keep listening to the honest, painful story unfold, as viewed through the eyes of a young girl whose life has been lived in the most dismal isolation possible. Gut-wrenching, but also filled with the beautiful, steadfast love of a young girl for her younger sister, who is the only real goodness in her life. There is so much raw humanity exposed in this book. It is worth reading several times, to extract all the subleties.

Be warned that this will be a book you must finish, once started. The author wraps the reader up in the emotions of the characters so much so that finding out what happens in their lives can keep readers page-turning far past bedtime!

Well written, well narrated, great little listen, even though it was obvious who the killer was, way too soon! Even with that, I was left wanting to hear more after the book was over!

Struggled to finish. I kept waiting for the interesting part. After three exhausting parts, it never arrived. But strangely, it was impissible to leave without reaching the end.

The tone and style of narration by Ann Marie Lee is painful to endure. Otherwise a great listen!

Tough to listen to the end! The narrator's voicewas uncomfortable, and the charactors are whiney and artificial.
