Renowned author Delphine Larue needs a haven. A crazed fan has gone over the deep end, and she’s not safe. Her security team has suggested a house by a lake. Secluded. Private. Far away. In a beautiful area of the Northwest close to the sleepy town of Misted Pines. It’s perfect. So perfect, Delphine has just moved in, and she’s thinking she’ll stay there forever. Until she sees the girl in the mist.

Once again, KA lured me in and kept me there. Twists and turns. Love and heartache. Strong women, strong men. Vindictive women and weak men. Interesting characters and plot all around.

A complete crime fiction box set! Homicide detective Thomas Prescott may be retired—but a serial killer, a high-profile murder, an ill-fated cruise, and a chilling small-town crime add more than enough excitement to his hard-earned rest. This collection includes the first four books: Unforeseen, Gray Matter, The Afrikaans, and Show Me.

THE BEST DEAL I HAVE EVER HAD ON AUDIABLE

Good fiction, Narrator Voice Too Senior-Sounding
Reviewed: 08-12-21
Politically incorrect main character. “Fell In Love” a bit too often. Plenty of swear words. Situations a bit far-fetched. All of that being said, I enjoyed each book in the series. Not heavy. Was able to multi-task while listening. The only bump I continually ran into was that while the main character is in his early 30’s, the narrator sounds as though he’s close to sixty. Pictured/heard my father reading out loud.
(Oh, and best value from audible in a while.)

Couldn’t Finish
Reviewed: 08-20-20
First, I want to say Jamie is a new to me author. I don’t know if this is her first or fifth book, but I felt like I was being spoonfed and there were too many characters to keep up with. I didn’t enjoy the narrator. I don’t know if it was the characters or the cadence, I tried speeding up the pace but I just couldn’t continue with the story. It’s rare that I don’t complete a book, but this was too much of a struggle.

Everyone in the small town of Denton is searching for Isabelle Coleman, a missing 17-year-old girl. All they've found so far is her phone and another girl they didn't even know was missing. Mute and completely unresponsive to the world around her, it's clear this mysterious girl has been damaged beyond repair. All Detective Josie Quinn can get from her is a name: Ramona. Currently suspended from the force for misconduct, Josie takes matters into her own hands as the name leads her to evidence linking the two girls.

Narrator Is NOT For Me
Reviewed: 09-15-19
I’m new to Lisa Regan. I truly enjoyed listening to the two Claire Fletcher books, finished them in 4days total. Listening to the first Detective Josie book is taking all the effort I have. The narrator’s pronunciation of words while reading as characters born and raised in Central Pennsylvania is just absolutely grating (and all-together wrong). I keep thinking that I wish I had just borrowed the print or ebook version and spent a week actually reading the story. I just don’t have the time to actually read right now.

Story4 out of 5 stars 455
Set in the 1970s in a run-down, rainy, industrial town, Jo Nesbo's Macbeth centers around a police force struggling to shed an incessant drug problem. Duncan, chief of police, is idealistic and visionary, a dream to the townspeople but a nightmare for criminals. The drug trade is ruled by two drug lords, one of whom - a master of manipulation named Hecate - has connections with the highest in power and plans to use them to get his way.

Reviewed: 04-16-18
Loved it! Like another reviewer insinuated, so many characters and no real hero’s. I could not stop stop listening. It’s gritty and dark and so much more. Jo Nesbo never disappoints and Euan Morton reels you in with his voice and character portrayal.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 5,092
In 2003, software engineer David Miller left his job, family, and friends to hike 2,172 miles of the Appalachian Trail. AWOL on the Appalachian Trail is Miller’s account of this thru-hike from Georgia to Maine. Listeners are treated to rich descriptions of the Appalachian Mountains, the isolation and reverie, the inspiration that fueled his quest, and the rewards of taking a less conventional path through life. While this book abounds with introspection and perseverance, it also provides useful passages about hiking gear and planning.

Borrowed then Bought, It’s a Keeper
Reviewed: 04-06-18
Loved the way David told his story, kind of like reading an outline or bullet points, but embellished. Christopher’s voice seemed to soften the reading so it was less like a manual and the author’s dry sense of humor was delivered perfectly. I got the book because an old friend often talked about hiking the AT, I don’t know that she did it in the 11years since we last spoke, but my nephew will be starting his Thru Hike in a couple weeks. I wanted to have an idea of what he will experience. I’m hoping to meet up with him & his 2 companions several times and I’ll now be bringing Trail Magic with me.
I’ve gone ahead and purchased the book for a couple of reasons. One, it’s a good read. Two, I want my husband & girls to read it. I’m hoping they may find interest in doing some section or day hiking with me and I want them to know it’s okay to follow your dreams, to attempt new things that they may never have thought about and to be bored. To be with the unfamiliar, to not have access to social media & electronics 24/7.

Once again a story written by Amy Harmon comes alive with narration. While I own the kindle version and a paperback version the audible version drew pictures and images in my head. I want everyone to lose themselves in From Sand and Ash.
