Critiques
Bravo





FBL
what a mystery! ( baffling at times!) Bravo to a reader who " just reads." He never changed his own voice, and thus avoided ridiculous attempts to sound like a woman. what a relief, and the story gains by it. Thank You.

This story has just the right amount of cleverness to keep me interested without the author seemingly showing off his own cleverness. I was engaged from start to finish. The reader seemed perfectly matched to the material. So many audiobooks I lose interest in half way through or earlier. This one kept me hooked all the way to the end, and for all that, 5 stars.





WN
Great mystery story with some intricate twists and turns, a bit of the far-fetched sort of material one expects in mystery stories of this era, plus some great, sometimes quite funny, character sketches. And a really wonderful reader. He goes at just the right pace and tone to relax and enjoy being read to, neither flat not theatrical. A+
Now U See 'Em, Now U......





Keith Horvath
Another fine murder mystery & another solved by Dr Thornton. Very clever not who don-it but who really was in the coffin? Two deaths, one body with confirmation of 2 witnesses and 2 doctors.
Good

Very good mystery. I was able to figure it out mostly before hand, which I Small amount of anti-semitic sterotyping. It isn't made much of but it is mentioned.
intriguing story. good narrator.
