I am only 12:15 mins into the story... I ABSOLUTELY HATE the narrator...she breaths after EVERY sentence. I bought the book it so I will listen I hate to waste a credit...

Killer of a story...

I love Barbara Michaels/Elizabeth Peters, but this was a slog. The reader has no skin in the game because there are bones found and, then, nothing even remotely interesting until the very end, which is a pat explanation with a twist of the supernatural. Really surprised at how dull this one is. Usually Barbara M. nails it. Oh, well, it was free.

Boring

Turns out this was a romance book, not a mystery as such. I felt that author put more effort into making romance work out than solve the mystery. pleasant having both.

Story was ok but...

One of the best Barbara Michaels books. A great comfort story for summer. Wonderful Southern gothic story.

Great story

An enjoyable old-family-ties-that-bind-just-might-end-up-killing-you storyline that was fun to both read and listen to, but then as a kid, I also had a scary old grandmother afflicted by a stroke who lived in a cool scary old house so it was a bit nostalgic. The characters were brought to life by the talents of both author and narrator though at times the narrator seemed to be recalling a story very slowly.

I can't really peg this story as there was a touch of mystery, a touch of romance, a touch of humor, but I guess it mostly dealt with overcoming the past. The ending was a bit jumbled, but still overall a good listen. (The Audible photo suggests the story might be a bit gruesome, but it wasn't at all.)

One of the few five-star books

My rating would have been lower had Barbara Rosenblat not been the reader. She is the best - Unfortunately, Barbara Michaels is not Nevada Barr or Elizabeth Peters.

This is the era I live the best from Barbara Rosenblat and the era I love to read about.

Classic Barbara Michaels and classic Barbara Rosenblat

There were so many minute details that you could get caught up in the minutia and lose the overall story. Barbara Michael's made up for it at the end with a good twist but I can only give the story three stars.

Good twist at the end, but story drags.
