Publisher's summary

When true crime podcaster Mercy St. Claire's best friend Alice gets kidnapped, it plunges her into the terrible realities of cold cases in a broken America. She turns to her beloved professor, retired criminalist Mark Thoreau, to try and find Alice, but grief, passion, and a descending darkness of terrible truths push them to take comfort in each other while killers go free. Nobody has answers.

Mercy and Mark are determined to get those answers...but justice has a cost.

This is a fantastic story of someone trying to find out what happened and the mystery she discovers it’s full of romance and suspense and it’s well narrated and written

Very Exciting.

I love this book, it has a bit of everything in it. Mainly this is a true crime book, which I am a true crime junkie. There is Love, Passion, friendship, heartbreak, murder and of coarse the exciting who done it that will keep u guessing until the end. There is different characters which each has their own personalities, they are so well written I swear I personally know them. I very much so love the narration which gives each character their own voice. I can't wait to start book 2.

I liked it.

I received a free audiobook code in exchange for a review.

I don’t normally read/listen to stories focused on mystery/crime. But I was looking for something to listen to and the cover caught my eye. This was an interesting story overall and I liked it. It was well-written and very entertaining.

The narrator did an awesome job! My only complaint was that Mark’s daughter didn’t sound like a little kid (11) but more like an older teenager.

Questions/Comments:

Mercy would’ve felt threatened if Mark would’ve made a pass at her even though that was what she wanted. How so?

Mercy ended up telling Noah that he could ask Alice about the jellyfish when he saw her. Mark told her not to make promises to his kids that she couldn’t keep. Seriously? That seemed a bit much.

When Chizzy(?) had Mark on her show, he said Alice had been missing for only ten hours. She had been gone longer than that since she disappeared the previous night and Mercy went with him and his kids to the aquarium the following day.

The only real problem I found in the story (at least to me) was that I never felt a love/lust connection from Mark’s POV toward Mercy, and it seemed more infatuation on Mercy’s part.

After six months, Alice’s apt was still just sitting there? What about the owner of the apt? Who was paying for it?

I understand everyone wants to be accepted. But whatever happened to just using “they/them” when you either never saw the person or don’t know their gender? I don’t get it. Sorry. I see so many videos online of people complaining about someone using the wrong pronoun. Maybe it’s because the pronoun thing has gotten crazy. If people can make up their own pronouns, how is anyone supposed to know what they are? They shouldn’t have to ask. It’s one thing if the person is a friend or family member but if they’re a stranger, in a one-time interaction, I mean how often do you use pronouns on a normal day? Why not just use their name, title, or something that identifies them (hair, clothing, accessories, etc.)? Sorry, I’m done now.

Why would Mark’s ex-wife and their kids and Mercy’s friends have come to the crime scene when it was late at night/middle of the night? I could sort of understand Mercy’s friends since they’d been wondering what happened to her, but Mark’s family? He couldn’t have waited until later that morning? It’s not like anything happened to him.

Great! Arielle Morisot's first book in new series

Angel of Mercy brings together podcasts, America's true crime fascination, a murder mystery plot and a bit of romance. Morisot's plot is a rich web of narrative fidelity that weaves a suspenseful and engaging story, full of believable characters, with plot appropriate moments of humor. I am reading/listening to all her work as fast as she can produce it. Audiobook is very well performed with distinctly defined vocal characterizations.

a hard but necessary journey for truth

This was an emotional and suspenseful journey.
It made me think and feel about things that maybe I'd rather not think and feel. It was gutwrenching, compelling, gripping, intense, and at times very sad, but it was about real life and death . It was very thought proving and made me see things in a different light. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a great job bringing the characters and story to life.

Shocking!!

This was given to me for a honest review. I am shocked by this book. I will be honest, I did not have hopes for this book. I didn’t know what to expect and just thought the book would be okay. But, I ended up loving it. This had me guessing the whole time and then i ended up being wrong. I also, loved that there was some smut in this too. I can’t wait to read the next one.
