About this listen
How in the world could she now own a castle?
Shy, introverted Dr. Cate Kensie never imagined that she would inherit a beautiful, and oddly quirky, castle nestled in the picturesque Scottish Highlands. Truthfully, she was sure that she didn’t have any family left after her parents died in a car accident several years before, but then, she had gotten the phone call, and her entire world had turned upside down.
That was when she discovered that she had family in Scotland and that her distant family member, Gertrude MacKenzie, had passed away, leaving her Dunhaven Castle and a golden timepiece with the mysterious note: Always keep an eye on your time.
Soon after she leaves the only life she’s ever known in the US with her four-legged best friend, the adorable Riley, she quickly finds that owning this castle is not the fairy tale she expected. Mysterious events occur that leave Cate wondering if her new home is haunted or if she’s losing her mind.
Will Cate be able to unravel the mysteries of Dunhaven Castle before it’s too late? Or, will the secrets be too much for Cate to handle?
Find out if Cate can uncover the secrets her new home holds in The Secret of Dunhaven Castle!

First.. What a great storyline this could have been. I encourage you to read the other reviews, because they have the same concerns I do. No imagination.. no descriptions of the characters, the castle, London, Scotland, or really.. anything. Tons of step by step movements, the weather, and how she slept. Tons of repetitive days and a lot of sitting on a chaise, eating, walking, hugging, looking for her dog. She is supposed to be an intelligent lady, but is pretty dumb about everything. She has no life, no friends, no family... things that could have been exciting were not. When I say she does the same boring things over and over ....and over and over... I mean......seriously. She explores constantly, then finds stuff and takes a break and makes a mental note to come backntonit later, constantly. Good grief. She cannot figure out that there is a mystery in anything. I mean nothing........
(spoiler alert/ she is filthy rich now, she sends no money to the poor lady who lived down the hall? She just shuns her before she leaves? Why ever bring her up then? What about Jeff? I mean... we couldn't rub the new fortunate opportunity in his face at all after he was so ugly? Missed opportunity. She worked at this place for how long and made ONE semi friend? Everyone else hates her enough not to wish her good luck after the email was sent? Weird. She has never been out of the country, but just says.. yep.. I'm moving. Gets to London and stays in her hotel and orders room service. What???? All she talks about is how much chillier it is in London and Scotland compared to her home in the U.S. She could have made a good friend who could have helped solve mysteries with her with the lawyer lady, but no... And why the sudd en possible recognition in the photo of the MC and her parents, but nothing comes of that?? She finds 9009 closets with things in them to look at later. Um.. I've never seen a castle with closets, but ok. Where is the dank dungeons down below? Or maybe secret passages in the walls? Is there electricity in this castle? and...WIFI? Really? She is perplexed about the state of dress of the servant she saw... but what is the difference between what she was wearing and what Mrs. Frasier wears. we don't know what Mrs. Frasier wears. Cate considers everyone's words. Almost as if she has a really hard time understanding normal everyday conversation. And how many times are we gonna choose where to eat, plan to read a boom but then put it down, plan to do research but do it later..etc. And don't get me stared on this watch.)
The NARRATOR... holy smokes.. this lady cannot pronounce her R's. Definitely has a speech impediment. She sighs and sounds tired while reading... she trips over words, and does not have proper undulation in her voice. She reads the story in a very monotone voice. You can hear her swallowing, breathing, sighing, and she sounds exhausted while reading. And those missing R's.... I can't stand that. Oh, but when the MC is missing her dog, she screams his name over and over. Very startling. had to adjust volume. I don't like that either. Don't scream!
I wanted this to be good. I am very disappointed.
I wantednto like this, but....
