Reviews
A million stars for the reader.
Mich Seg
First few stories were too flabby to continue. Came back later, skipped ahead a few chapters to find the book fails to springs back to life.
A really good short mystery
Seven Archers
A good short "Old School" mystery novel, read by an excellent reader. Thank you for your work and sharing your talent.
An absorbing tale
Andrew McFarlane
A complex tale with many twists and turns. Up to the usual standard of these two writers.
Elaine
Nothing wrong with the story, just a lot of coincidences ; worth listening to for the time it takes
XC
A nice simple, but enjoyable plot. The reader made it easy to follow using different voices and intonations.
