terrible reader

even though some of the voices were good, the voice over rendering was boring and many of the words were mispronounced. Sounded like hecwas reading it for the first time and many sentences were broken up wrong

Good Story

I enjoy Mr. Engene's voice and style. He lends his voice to a detective I've "known" for years in an interesting, talented, and skilled manner.
Ms. Jance continues to create suspenseful, well-paced stories in which her self-aware characters find themselves challenged both personally and professionally.

One of the best!

I have read or listened to several of the books in the J.P.Beaumont series. This is definitely one of the best! The book keeps your attention throughout.
It has a rather unique plot. I highly recommend it.

J A Jance never Disappoints

I love the way that she gives such minute detail to all her characters. I actually feel like I know every person that she writes about. Her metaphors, similes and alliteration are so enlightening. I feel like I'm right there in her story.

Lying in Wait

I apologize, I must have been blind in one eye and couldn't see thru the other one. Gene Engene hasn't narrated all of her books. I will try another, am looking forward to a good listen.

Lying In Wait

As usual, JA Jance has given us another enjoyable, easy read. The narrator would do well to research the speech inflections of the character's setting. A decidedly Southwest intonation coming from a native resident of the Pacific Northwest is annoying and unbelievable.
