About this listen

What I thought I knew: in 1998, Maryanne Doyle disappeared, and Dad knew something about it. Maryanne Doyle was never seen again.

What I actually know: in 1998, Dad lied about knowing Maryanne Doyle. Alice Lapaine has been found strangled near Dad's pub. Dad was in the local area for both Maryanne Doyle's disappearance and Alice Lapaine's murder.

Good syory with too much padding.

The book is too long with boring passages that let my mind wander. Perhaps tighter editing is required. The story is quite alright but there is a lot of unnecessary description of feelings and shallow character portrayal, best left to the readers imagination through there actions. The English is basic and a richer vocabulary would help. Hopfully the style will improve .

Excellent narration!

It was an enjoyable listen, the plot had some intrigue (although a couple of aspects were a bit predictable), and the narration was excellent. The accents and changes of voice tone for the different characters was really well done.

Great read

Great story, I wanted to keep listening to hear the story unfold. My only suggestion is tighter editing.

A smooth listen with humour and a compelling story

The narrator was excellent. The story was complex but flowed well. I liked that it was funny in places and the main character was flawed but likeable. I look forward to the next book in the series

Love Caz Frear

Terrific story. I love the Author of these books and a new one in 10 days. The stories are bright and fun and wonderful to read. A series of interest and quite different from the norm.

Great story.

Very different from others in this genre and thoroughly enjoyable. Real characters with a twisty story well told.

Great story

The narrator did an absolutely brilliant job with the voice changes. Lots of twist and turns and unlike lots of crime novels I didn’t guess the ending. I highly recommend for a good read.
