Sorry not a great fan of the narrator’s voice

The story was good. Kept me guessing, but I found the narrator’s voice grating.

Good listen

I liked the way there is an undertone of humour throughout the book, the characters are compelling, though I wish the the performance was better, in the way in which the characters were voiced, they were too similar to each other borderline caricature-esque it was quite hard to tell them apart without context cues.

Can’t get into story

I can’t get a hold of the story line as the narrator reds like Krusty the clown on an acid trip, very distracting and not at all enjoyable
Might have to read this one from paper to get the story

Not mad about this narrator

Am in the story at the moment and not enjoying it - having difficulty getting into it which is unusual for me as I love Harlan Coben books.
I wish I could return the book!!!

Disappointing

I love Harlan avo I’m, however this is by far the worst novel/audiobook that he has had published.

The narrator was very unconvincing and the story line lacklustre.

Very disappointing
