A story of families and love

Disliked the narrator. She was choppy with pauses between sentences. The story was good, with a lot of action

Enjoy the Story

I really enjoyed the book. Fun mystery. I had read it first then thought it would be fun to listen to it. The reader was not to my liking at all. Her voice that she used was a bit too much for my ears.
