Unabridged Audiobook
It took much of the book to get to the substance. It seemed to be written with the structure of how the character’s mind worked, dementia and all. While I can appreciate seeing things from alternative perspectives, it detracted from the mystery significantly
Made it to track 7. Good narrator But it rambles on about nothing, no direction or point.
Great mystery, with a little meaning for us historical fiction buffs! Narrator added to the listening pleasure. You do, however, need to pay attention — or liberally use your 30 second repeat! Highly recommended.
The story compelled me to keep listening even when I felt disturbed. The author brings his main character to life as the story unfolds as told through the thoughts of the character. I would have rated more stars for excellent story telling but the content was darker than I anticipated and that biases my opinion of the novel. The author made the character come to life, excellent job.
The first two-thirds of the book was pretty slow. It seemed to drag on to me.
