Reviews
I kept listening





DougJ
The story was interesting for the most part, then slowed down towards the end. The final twist was not expected. I liked the characters. The reader has a nice voice and handled all the male voices just fine.
Mystery, love and intrigue





Linda in PNW
This is a great story with lots going on. I did not find the ending totally predictable so I was I inerested right to the end. The reader is great!
Very nicely done!





Mike Cole
Everything about this story was well done. From the narrator through the entire book,no twist was overlooked.

A very interesting story, very well read

A unique detective and a very interesting story.
Insanity & Life's Illusion





Keith Horvath
Very few stories I read or listen to receive less than 5 stars. Never due to a poor reader or fantastic one. This author has written some great interesting stories, interweaving characters & situations to get the mind involved as looking in from the outside. Sort of as an invited voyeur. So for Mr Groner, 2 down 3 more to go.

Interesting story but somehow the original seems to be lost for awhile but just like that it’s back again and all the seemingly useless parts of the story get tied in and mystery is solved. Great reader always enjoy her.
