Annoying narration
The story was okay but the narrator used very annoying strident voices for the female heroine which pretty much ruined it for me. He was fine for the male voices though.

Predictable
It passed a pleasant few hours but the narration, particularly of the female characters, nearly drove me up the wall. The narrator managed to make Abigail, in particular, screechy and hysterical. As a result I just wanted to slap Abigail most of the time.
As far as the story itself went, it was an interesting premise. I like the main character Wilson, but I guess the who dunit by halfway through the book.
