Liked the book but not the preformamce
Reviewed: 01-18-21
Ms. Craven has a sort of prissy, old fashioned intonation, which would work in other storylines, but not this one. I felt like Sam’s mother was narrating and found it very distracting.
That said, I am a fan of PJ. Tracy and really liked the story. Looking forward to what comes next.

Story
Christiana is the daughter of the biggest arms dealer on the West Coast, Angus Byrne. She's also the sole witness and number one suspect in the murder of her boyfriend, found dead in her Newport Beach boutique. Isaiah Quintabe is coerced into taking the case to prove her innocence. If he can't, Angus will harm the brilliant PI's new girlfriend, ending her career. The catch: Christiana has multiple personalities. Among them, a naïve, beautiful shopkeeper, an obnoxious drummer in a rock band, and a wanton seductress.

I love IQ
Reviewed: 01-31-20
I’m a total fan of Joe IDE and IQ. His characters and words just jump to life. I can’t say Hi Five is my favorite, however, but I fully believe it’s due to the absence of Sullivan Jones as the narrator. Sullivan is IQ! Zeno Robinson’s performance isn’t horrible by any means but he just doesn’t bring IQ ‘s character, humor and style to life.
That being said, don’t miss this latest installment in the series. Interesting concept and storyline as usual.

Story
Homicide detective Nicole Foster has finally balanced an unsteady life and is anxious for a second chance. There’s no better place to start over than at the beginning—back at her childhood home on the Washington coast, where’s she raising her niece and keeping an eye on her increasingly fragile father. But Nicole’s past is never truly behind her—not when a disturbing new case stirs dark memories of the haunting investigation that shattered her career.

Boring
Reviewed: 08-24-18
The writer continually stressed the love Nicky had for Emma and her dog to the point of ridiculous stupidity. The story line was weak and very predictable.
I would not recommend although the reader was very proficient.

Story
In Shaker Heights, a placid, progressive suburb of Cleveland, everything is planned - from the layout of the winding roads to the colors of the houses to the successful lives its residents will go on to lead. And no one embodies this spirit more than Elena Richardson, whose guiding principle is playing by the rules. Enter Mia Warren - an enigmatic artist and single mother - who arrives in this idyllic bubble with her teenage daughter, Pearl, and rents a house from the Richardsons.

Boring and Drawn Out!!!

Slow
Reviewed: 10-06-17
The story is decent, but a bit slow and repetitive. I would like to see more resolution for all the Richardson kids. The narrator was overall good, albeit somewhat cloying at times. I would recommend the book; just don't expect to be knocked out.

Story
When a mysterious figure appears in Three Pines one cold November day, Armand Gamache and the rest of the villagers are at first curious. Then wary. Through rain and sleet, the figure stands unmoving, staring ahead. From the moment its shadow falls over the village, Gamache, now Chief Superintendent of the Sûreté du Québec, suspects the creature has deep roots and a dark purpose. Yet he does nothing. What can he do? Only watch and wait. And hope his mounting fears are not realized.

The storyline is terrific and the writing superb. I am sad that I'm finished with it and am missing Three Pines already.
