About this listen

"A Rose for Her Grave" - the principal story of this collection - vividly recreates the cautionary tale of Randy Roth, a misogynistic sociopath from the Pacific Northwest whose rage was directed primarily at women and children. Addicted to his own greed, Roth exercised a powerful aura of control over his victims, using his ability to charm and boyish good looks to lower their defenses. By the time they saw the reality of the madness in his eyes, it was usually too late. This, along with five other chilling cases, bears the stamp of classic Ann Rule - informed, comprehensive, and eerily evocative of man's inhumanity to man.

I love Ann Rule books. I really like that she is able to give the facts without so much gory details yet we can still clearly visualize what she writes. I also like that there's not an abundance of profanity. The narrator was so easy to listen to. However, she doesn't do male voices very well but if you can get over that, she's a wonderful narrator.

Fantastic Story

I have listened to a lot of Anne Rule's books, but this one got to me! The child abuse dispensed by Randy is sickening! I wanted revenge for the children he hurt.

Why is it always the littlest ones who suffer the most?!

The details in the book were too repetitive for me. In the first story, I felt like I heard about the details of the items that were stolen 3-4 times and that was the case with a lot of details.

Good story

For much of the book, it reads almost like a murder mystery. If I had been the editor of this book, I would have suggested that she swap the stories around with the first one in the book being the last since it is the most intense and longest
one in the book.
Overall it's a solid book and worth the read.

Very intense!

The story began good and intriguing, but as the book drew on it became more difficult to follow. I lost track of the story line and the narrator is monotone.

Difficult to finish

Ann Rule is brilliant as always in her writing and I love Laural Merlington reading it. You won't be upset that you purchased this book.

Great Read As Always

these stories put a chill down my back, They are heartbreaking cruel. The author lays it out nicely giving you a powerful store that tears at your soul. It is laid out nicely with not a lot of filler which I like, she sticks the story. She has been one of my favorite authors since my teens. I enjoy how she knows how to pull the reader in, giving some very shocking details that make the back stand up.


The narrator did a great job, her normal voice is very pleasant and her character voices are very nice. There were no repeating of words, no background noise and no volume change. She really pulled me in giving me a very entertaining listen that had me hooked from the start.

Love this author
