the twist at the end

the writing was terrific and it kept my interest the entire book. the ending was a surprise.

Great character development.

Just about returned the book in the first few chapters but then it evolved into a very interesting whodunnit and I’m really glad I stuck around for the ending without cheating by skipping to the end. As a shorter listen, it was a great way to spend the afternoon.

Sappy story

I continued with this book because of the intriguing premise - a woman poised between life and death is able to observe all the people involved with solving the crime.
However, the narrator’s strange voice for both police officers sounded as though she had a mouthful of marbles - such an odd choice for Idaho cops - and the last stages of the story were sickly sweet.
Overall, do not recommend.

The narrator was supposedly deceased!

I liked the length of the book. It was a great page-turner! Good read!

Didn’t like the narrator loved the story

The story kept you intrigued. I read this book in one day, however the narrator was terrible at voices and sometimes made it annoying to listen to, but the overall story was really good.
