Skip the sex scenes

An interesting, convoluted detective tale that kept me listening. This was the fourth book in the Mindhunters series that I’ve enjoyed on the Audible Plus (free) catalogue. All well read with good variation in accents. HOWEVER, the heavy sex scenes and romance trope cliches spoil rather than enhance the narrative. I agree with other reviewers who thought the combination of sex and forensics/detection didn’t work. Thank goodness Audible has a fast forward button.

Good story line

Good storyline, kept you interested as in what was coming next.
Narrator was a bit flat at times , but preserved to the end .

Deadly Intent

I enjoyed this book very much. The excitement continued to the end. The only criticism I have is that the reader did not pause long enough when the scene and characters were about to change.

Grrrrrr!

Great book but leaving the ending so open spoiled it for me which is why I've giving it 4 out of 5 for the story.

Great story

But the patronising fake English accent , for the character Maci , was absolutely awful,
But persevered as a pretty good story,
The American throng , being a flip flop, pants being trousers , could have been misleading.

Could be so much better

The basic story was good but the narration, the sub-plot and editing were irritating. The narrator's voice didn't distinguish the characters enough and his occasional silly sing-song intonation was annoying. Regarding the sub-plot, I didn't like the continuous childish banter between the two main characters, particularly their corny innuendos which often made Macey seem a weak female. However, the most annoying aspect of the recording was between scenes. There was no obvious pause which made the scene changes merge into one another and took me a while before I was able to grasp that the characters were different and that the scene had actually changed.
SPOILER ALERT!!
I found the ending disappointing with no obvious conclusion. I guess this is to encourage the reader to read the books which follow in the series. I doubt I'll be doing that, though and certainly not on Audible. One positive, though - it didn't cost me anything as it was included in my monthly subscription and was free!

Good pass time

All the books of this author are kind of similar: a mystery that gets solved with a bit help of luck despite the normal investigation and two investigators that fall in love. If you do not mind the clichés then the book is an effortless read to fill your time while doing something else. The narrator is good too. The only issue with this book is that it ends with a cliffhanger.

Love this series and how it's narrated

This series draws you in. Great stories. The narrator is excellent and I can't wait to listen to the rest.
