About this listen
Britt Barlow is certain her media mogul brother-in-law Jeremiah Addison's fatal tumble a year ago was no accident -- especially since she herself discovered, and disposed of, the trip wire someone had strung across the stairs. Now she's bringing all who were in attendance that weekend back to Golden Silk -- Addison's luxurious secluded island estate -- and inviting two extra guests, Annie and Max Darling, to help uncover a killer.
Annie Darling wouldn't miss this party for the world! And there certainly is no lack of suspects among the guests, each of whom had a substantial motive for doing in the insufferable tycoon. But the party turns deadly when a houseman mysteriously vanishes, along with the boats which are the only escape off Addison's island -- leaving the Darlings stranded on a floating rock in the middle of nowhere, too close to a solution for comfort, and stalked by a crafty murderer.

Narrator might not have been the best choice
Would you consider the audio edition of Death of the Party to be better than the print version?
The audio is great for trips to and from work... and it brings the story more to life
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
The use of different voices was pretty good but over all the narrator's voice got on my nerves a little bit

What a waste of a credit
Would you try another book from Carolyn Hart and/or Kate Reading?
I love Kate Reading, she is an exceptional narrator, this is the 1st time I listened to Carolyn Hart, I would not listen to another.
What do you think your next listen will be?
I am listening to a book by EK Blair, which is the 1st time, I think it is definitely a 4 star at this point.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Reading didn't have anything to do with this book, it was a horrible story line and poorly written.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
NONE
Any additional comments?
Give me my credit back please!
