Story
In The Worst of You, just-wed architects Timo and Nia flee a murder scene, setting in motion a chain reaction of lies and betrayals that threaten to unravel everything they have built together. Twisted and propulsive, this thriller is told from the alternating perspectives of the couple and those close to them on Williwaw Island, each with their own motive to use the outcome of the murder case to their advantage. When a huge storm sweeps up the coast, trapping everyone on tiny Williwaw Island, it’s a race against time—and the elements — to stop the murderer from striking again.

Very poor Welsh accent
Reviewed: 21-06-24
Enjoyed the story but American actors don’t even try to attempt a Welsh accent. It’s just an English accent. Scottish accents are just Irish . Maybe that’s ok for US listeners but it really grates if you’re from this side of the Atlantic. Plain lazy.

Reasonable account of a unique band. However, the narrator’s North American accent really jars. Either reading dialogue of the band members or mispronouncing place names (Chiswick!) became irritating in this accent.

Story
Newly minted homicide detective Nell Buchanan returns to her hometown, annoyed at being assigned a decades-old murder—a 'file and forget'. But this is no ordinary cold case, her arrival provoking an unwelcome and threatening response from the small-town community. As more bodies are discovered, and she begins to question how well she truly knows those closest to her, Nell realises that finding the truth could prove more difficult—and dangerous—than she'd ever expected.

Story
The Grand Hotel is a horror novel by esteemed best-selling author Scott Kenemore ( Zombie, Ohio) that takes the reader on a thrilling ride through an interconnected series of stories narrated by the desk clerk and the residents of the hotel itself. And while it is not known whether or not the desk clerk is actually the devil incarnate, it is strange that so many visitors who come for a tour of the hotel have a way of never leaving.

Interesting and strange stories. However, the English and Australian accents really grated. Maybe if you’re American they sound ok but if you’re not American it’s painful.

A really evocative book. Conjures up a believable picture of small town America. Ultimately it’s really not a feel good story but brilliantly written and narrated.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and although it was long I didn’t feel that it dragged. I thought the narration was very good with one exception. I think that maybe some US listeners may not what a Welsh accent sounds like but this was nothing like it. It was a bad Scottish accent and nothing like Welsh. That aside I’d recommend this book.

Story
As newspapers reported in the 1890s, a woman dubbed "Shakespeare" was found dead in a seedy hotel along the waterfront by Manhattan’s South Street Seaport. The chilling scene recalled for press and police alike Jack the Ripper’s victims in London. Panicked New Yorkers worked feverishly to halt that maniac’s spree from expanding across the Atlantic. The city only sighed relief after detectives abruptly arrested a traveling Algerian ex-soldier for the crime.

Great story, great narration. My only complaint was the “shorthand diary” style of the text. That’s all that stopped it getting an overall 5 star review.
