A Great Mystery!


(5 stars)

I don't give 5 stars lightly. This book deserves it. I listened twice as it had been a long time since the 1st time & I forgot who did it & why. Both times I thought I knew but was wrong! Caroline has a slight accent but reads well, at an appropriate pace, & clearly. These should be requirements for readers. If you have trouble understanding her, although I don't think that would be the case here, then use one or both earbuds instead of listening though a regular speaker. That gender bending review is just ridiculous, BTW.

Whispering Pines


(5 stars)

This must be AK G'S crowning glory! I haven't read them all yet but I believe this to be best. Carolina reads it perfectly. Her voice helps the suspense and sympathy that the story requires. Thank you librivox

Volunteer readers be blessed


(5 stars)

The blending of circumstances, highly stressful situations, &, personal relationships, all combine in A.K. Green murder mysteries so beautifully! Human nature, psychological thrills, Detectives, Lawyers, even the sense one would get from a local Courtroom, give this novel 5 Stars, & were it available, would rate a 6+!!

TWISTED ROUTE AS ALWAYS


(5 stars)

AKG never fails to entertain. This is as good as any of her works. The reader had a fasciinating voice.

The Best Book, the best Reader


(5 stars)

Carolin’s reading makes every text deep and atmospheric and clearly she knows that things are supposed to be decent in the world. Don’t ask me how she conveys this! I started listening to this today at ch. 15 while I was out walking and very nervous and I listened just to be steadied, not knowing what preceded that chapter. That was 3 pm and it’s just wound up now, at 1:43 am. A huge undertaking for a reader with no faltering anywhere. I love AKGreen— why was she forgotten? So, very grateful to two great women.

My second favorite AK Green book


(5 stars)

*Helpful tip for those that have complained..increasing the listening speed to 1.0x greatly increased my enjoyment . The reader is greatly appreciated and enjoyable.This book is long, but worth the time ! I didn't figure out the mystery until the almost very end.

Just okay


(3 stars)

I've truly enjoyed other books by this author but this one was just okay. Too many cryptic characters -- either in comas or acting extremely odd. And I never did have a good sense of the main character either. The Librivox volunteer reader did a good job, though.
