Another fun “who dun it”

Molly Garcia is back with another great crime mystery! Trying to figure out who was responsible for the 20-year-old murder will keep you guessing until the end (I guessed wrong, lol), while the unconventional friendship between Laura and Ray will remind you that true friends are always there for you, no matter what’s happening in your life.

Rock and roll

I really enjoyed this thriller! It had me hooked from the beginning. I kept going back and forth in my head thinking about what could have happened. I was hoping for a different ending but knew it was coming. I liked the characters and the rock and roll setting / theme of this book. The performance was good but I am not the biggest fan of so many sound effects.

Super Good Who Done It?

This book is an awesome and well done mystery. The question is, Who killed Chris? Having multiple suspects it is a difficult cold case that gets reopened once Chris the leader of a rock band is found dead. Several had reason to want him dead from band members to groupies. The narration is awesome as well. A great story by a great author, Great narrators and some added sound effects bring this mystery to life. You cant go wrong

Everyone has their secrets.

Summer of Swallows
by Molly Garcia
Narrated by Grant Love

I received a complimentary audio copy and am voluntarily leaving my review.

Everyone has their secrets.
When ageing rocker Chris Swallow is discovered dead in his home, questions that have remained unanswered for years resurface. Primarily, the death of a young girl, Rosie, who left home one day in 1998 to attend a party thrown by his rock group, The Swallows, and then mysteriously disappeared. All eyes were on Chris as she was known to be dating him.

On hearing the news of the rocker's demise, Rosie's sister, Laura, over 20 years later, takes matters into her own hands and begins her investigation of the tragic events that happened to her sister years earlier. On top of the commotion caused by these events, old crimes are dredged up, and along with them, old feelings and heartaches. Can she unearth the truth without attracting the attention of the killer?

Summer of Swallows is a crime, mystery, and thriller by Molly Garcia set in the late '90s. I really enjoyed this book. It's a well-crafted story filled with mystery and intrigue. I liked discovering the relationship between Chris and Rosie, while also being drawn into the gripping mystery of the murders and the motives behind them. This aspect of the story kept me guessing and balanced well with the more emotional side of the deaths. I believe the author did an excellent job of telling these stories side-by-side, shifting between the past and present.

I listened to the audio version narrated by Grant Love. As usual, he enunciated every word and phrase clearly and cleanly. Listen to how he pronounces "rotten rubbish" - sheer perfection! He compellingly tells the story, incorporating the spirit of the text and the author’s intent consistently throughout the narration.

By its genre, this book should appeal to many readers with its secrets, deaths, and unlimited surprises. I give Summer of Swallows a 5 out of 5 stars.

Murder Mystery

Another great mystery book by Ms. Garcia. This book was suspenseful, action-packed, fast-paced and gripping. The storyline was riveting. Grant Love included music and sound effects with the narration.

Loved the narration of Grant Love, who brings the past and present alive in your ears. Making this a great mystery for your ears.

Due her relationship with the lead singer of "The Swallow", Rosie Harper's life had been full of wild parties and excitement, But when Rosie disappears, suspicion falls onto Chris Swallow, who vanishes from the limelight as well.

Years when DCI Jack West finds out that a dead hoarder has been identified as Chris Swallow, takes the opportunity to re-open Rosie’s cold case.
Rosie's sister, Laura, has never given up hope of finding out what happened to her big sister. Did Rosie just up and leave or was she murdered.

This book has the right amount of suspense and mystery to keep you guessing till the end.

Music led chapter breaks

It was an interesting book about who killed Rosie many years ago. Part police procedural, part meddling sister, with rock sounds interspersed. While it wasn't a unique story, I'm glad that I listened to the audiobook with the added sound effects. it really added to the effect of the story.
