Great idea, "okay" execution

While the overall plot was intriguing, I found the dialogue to be predictable and mundane.

A different perspective

Disclaimer: This audiobook was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review. Given the perspective of the different characters made this a very engaging and enjoyable book. The tension is especially strong when the two characters are shown interacting with each other from each other's perspective. Really enjoyed it. Narration by Richard Salem is greatly done, especially for all the male characters. However the way the female voices were made were really just not to my personal taste. They all sound like they are in great discomfort. I would rather they be read a little more normally, maybe with a slightly lift in for their dialogues so that it does not distract what they are saying and potentially feeling.
