About this listen

No one is more familiar with Savannah's dark side than homicide detective and native resident Elise Sandburg. She's been haunted for years by her own mysterious past: She was abandoned as a baby in one of the city's ancient cemeteries, and it’s rumored that she is the illegitimate daughter of an infamous Savannah witch doctor. The local Gullah culture of voodoo and magic is one that few outsiders can understand, least of all Elise’s new partner. Now someone is terrorizing the city, creating real-life zombies by poisoning victims into a conscious paralysis that mimics death. As the chilling case unfolds, Elise is drawn back into the haunted past she's tried so hard to leave behind.

It was a mild thriller with minimal twists and turns. Light and enjoyable enough between much heavier crime dramas.

Entertaining

Listen to the book for almost 3 hours. I could not stand it anymore. The narrator sounds like she does not like her job or maybe she is bored reading it. Monotone , no emotions, deepens her voice when it is a male character , but the same emotionless reading. Sometimes hard to understand .
Story is ok so far. Would not recommend it.

Narration is really bad
