Worst Narrator Ever

What disappointed you about No Hiding Place?

The narration was appalling. My 11 yr old granddaughter could have put more feeling into reading it.

Would you ever listen to anything by M. A. Comley again?

Not if she hires Charlotte Anne Dore to narrate. What a really poor choice.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

I felt as if she was reading the story for the first time and had no idea what was going on, so she put emphasis in the exact wrong places. And her voice is irratating to the nerves.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

I'm sure I could have enjoyed it if I had been reading it instead of listening to it.

Disappointing narrator and weak plot

Every now and then I like to take a chance on a new author and/or narrator. The smart thing to do would be to listen to the sample, which in this case I failed to do. I won't make that mistake again.

To say this narrator's style is wooden would be a generous understatement. I resorted to speeding the narration up to 1.25 in an attempt to make her narration approximate some kind of human speech, but even that wasn't enough. Her slow reading and over-enunciation set my teeth on edge.

And the story isn't the strongest either. It's a police procedural that appears to be written by someone unfamiliar with the genre, let alone actual police procedure. For example, it's hard to imagine the police anywhere letting a family stay in a immediately after a murder has been committed--without having scene of crime officers even examine the evidence or having detectives take statements.

I could go on and on, but I'll restrain myself. I simply can't recommend this book, and in fact wish I had phoned Audible and asked for my money back. And I'll definitely be listening to samples from now on!

Narrator Awful!

Had to turn the speed up to 1.25 to keep from falling asleep.
Seems like there's no enthusiasm.
She needs to listen to Elaine Wise and learn what a good narrator sounds like.
Book drags on. Kept rewinding to keep my interest.
Hope the next one is better.
