Headstrong, hyper analytical, and with secrets of her own, she decides to try and solve the case. But could Mia's impulsive actions be putting her whole family in danger?

Book brilliant, voice acting of the brother a bit off

Book is brilliant, the voice acting for the brother was not a good match in my opinion. The voice was okay, but the way in which he was supposedly imitating a person with autism that has finally found a channel of communication came out condescending. Maybe the other both reading and listening to the story catch my meaning.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
