Good read

Enjoyed the dead room however I am still puzzled by the ending. I did not get the closure I felt was owed the readers.

Very good story

I don't think this book is that far from the truth. I'd say things like this go on a lot more then we know. It's worth the time to listen.

Good story. Poor narrator

The story is worth tolerating the very poor narration. Lots of twists, turns and surprises

Kept me interested

Great story. Dark themes and gruesome .. But very enjoyable. Makes me want to read/listen to more books by the author.

12 hours and that's it?

The narration started out very good, but certain characters were hard to understand after a while and did not contribute to this complicated story. This book was not my kind of entertainment.
