One of worst narrations I have experienced. Ruined what seemed like a promising story. Gave up

Gave up due to narrator

If this series were not in the Plus Catalogue I definitely wouldn't be paying to listen to them. It's a shame as the tale in this book is once again great, has very interesting twists and turns and bowls along but the narration is dreadful - Who chooses the narrator ? If it's Audible themselves, they are taking advantage of the author and the listener.

Once again great story 👍 but dire narration

Another great listen.

Really enjoyed this crime story could really get losted trying to think what's going to happen.. Worth listening to.

The wee twists. 😳

The main protagonist, DCI Sophie, quite preachy and a bit too good to be true. Interesting to follow character development of all the recurring characters, but the accents are atrocious and pronunciation shocking. Overall worth a listen so persevere!

Twists and turns keep you on your toes

Sophie Allen does it again, with a great team behind her. Great follow up to previous novels.

This narrator drives me mad! I sometimes have to stop listening. Her pronunciation of words like data etc is really annoying!

Please use a different narrator

Everyone a little bit too nice to be true. I have listened to three on the trot so probably not a good idea. This storyline was very weak and I got bored with it. Some of the characters are developing and I will listen to the next one after I have had a change. The main character is just to good to be believable as a ruthlessly clever detective.

Not very exciting

The narrator is terrible. Boring voice. The attempt at different characters and accents ruined what might have otherwise been a good story.

Appalling narration
