Great story, recording ok

There are some major sound issues, such as mic clipping, ASMR issues in the sound recording of the performer. There are fans, ending of line cuts noise, sound gate issues, repeat lines, and plain old blowing out of the microphone when the performer is trying to convey a bigger voice. I’m no pro, but even an amateur like myself finds things like this avoidable, and sonically distracting from the story. Didn’t someone check this? At one point in the previous story I almost fell off a ladder as I was working due to the sound editing being SO LOUD from one sentence to another. Alas, I stuck with the story and I’m glad. It’s good despite the switch of performers (which I’m not terribly thrilled with) and the sound issues. Where is Elaine Wise?!?

This series is excellent

I don’t like the constant mispronunciation of words and the choices that Blake makes in who performs his stories, but the stories are so good. Twisty, turny, full of badass womanhood and darkness.

Exceptional

Loved the whole world series. I highly recommend reading from 1 - 5, in order.

Loved this series and I recommend that you just get over the narrators and focus on the story. Detective Locke and the love for her daughter man that is just the best. I just love detective Locke!!!! This book was a little weird but none the less this a great read!!! And as always the narrator could have been different but the story beats it all
