About this listen

A gripping tale from New York Times best-selling suspense author Terri Blackstock. When the kindest couple in Cape Refuge is found murdered at their church, their daughter will have to find the killer...before her own husband is convicted.

Wade and Thelma Owens run a halfway house on the small island of Cape Refuge that caters to wayward souls just out of prison. So when Wade and Thelma turn up brutally murdered, the town goes into shock, concerned that one of the Hanover House residents is a murderer who could strike again.

Shattered by her parents’ deaths, Morgan Cleary struggles to keep Hanover House running while her husband, Jonathan, has been arrested for the murder.

As the killer runs free, a lethal race against time ensues, with far more than the halfway house at stake.

I'd love to say I loved this.. but...

Any additional comments?

I usually enjoy Terri Blackstock's stories. Some are unusual, some will make you think. This story is just a very good yarn. However, the narrator was SO annoying. The attempt at a southern accent is horrible and her portrayal of the young girl was whiny. It seems she wants to portray all Christians as flat monotonic beings without any Joie de Vivre. But then, that may be how they are written as well. They just don't seem to be.. really human - with conflicts and failings, etc. The story is good. A good message. I just wish I could have given it higher marks.

Second worst narration

I listen to a lot of audible books and this narration is almost too awful to finish the book. Absolutely horrible!

cape refuge

This is a very captivating book to listen to. I could not figure out who did it till later in book. Good job on that. I think everyone loving a good mystery should read/listen to this book.

Not a big fan of this narrator!

Ok. Usually I prefer male over female narrators so keep that in mind when I tell you that I am not a fan of this narrator at all. Apart from the young girl and the two sisters almost everybody else sounded the same but!!!
The story. I loved the story. Real people with real issues trying their best to live a good Christian life but gets tripped up by life, by their tempers, resentment and secrets. Not at all a preachy book but for all of that a show-me-how instead of let-me-tell-you how story.

Yes, i am now a huge fan but Ill keep an eye out for a different narrator before I invest in the rest of the series on audio.

I LOVE THIS TERRI BLACKSTOCK SERIES....

If you could sum up Cape Refuge in three words, what would they be?

Intriguing, exciting and performance... I loved this book and the characters. Can't say enough about the narrator Renee, she's great to listen to and She has these characters down, not missing a beat with emphasis. Love the storyline and the use of characters. Couldn't stop listening and can't wait for more...

Lots of twists and turns

If you could sum up Cape Refuge in three words, what would they be?

Suspenseful, non-predictable, who-dun-it

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

The narrators voice was a bit whiney or something. Not that pleasant to listen to, but overall, she did a good job changing characters.

Any additional comments?

It was easy to keep having ideas who might have done it, but all the way through, the author deftly led us on different paths so you were never sure.

Gripping story! I couldn’t turn it off!

It was so nice to read a truly suspenseful whodonit without all the bad language and smutty gratuitous sex scenes. Very well done. Looking forward to listening to another one of her novels.

Not the best

I like Terri Blackstock usually but this was not a big hit. I finished it but wasn't really a fan. I don't think I will buy the next in the series.
