Bad Decisions

Where does Failure to Appear rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I'm really enjoying this series, but this was the most disappointing one for me. Beau made some decisions that just didn't make sense to me. It wasn't awful, but just wondered why he made several decisions that just didn't follow suit for me.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

Beau make some better decisions when he was thinking of family...

Have you listened to any of Gene Engene’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

He's grown on me and I really like him, it would be hard to hear anyone else read as Beau - he does a good job.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Yes - but not going to give anything away.

Good Read

Guaranteed JP Beaumonts life events will keep you entertained and he can't keep out of trouble.

Another Good Listen

My favorite author has given me years of wonderful stories. I have read or listened to all of the Joanna Brady series and now working on J.P. Beaumont. Looking forward to the next book!

Nice twist on the plot

I like the closure for the other side plots. I also enjoy the more life-mimiccing struggles Beau faces.

Great, exciting "read,"

I drive a lot, and listening to books makes the time go very quickly. I am a huge fan of J.P. Beaumont. I am listening to each book in order. I like how the characters are built from book to book. This one has a great plot, and Gene Engene's narration is so good. He makes the characters come alive.
