Tragedy strikes Palmetto Deaf School - twice. With one student murdered and another missing, it's up to homicide detective Catelyn Clark to find the killer - and probable kidnapper - fast.

She'll even work with her ex-boyfriend, FBI agent Joseph Santino, to solve the case...while keeping her distance. Relationships between cops never work; her parents taught her that. They also taught her that the only one she can rely on is herself.

But when the killer starts targeting Catelyn, it's only by opening her heart to faith - and love - that she can finally bring the silent fury to an end.

So So Reader

A lot of the good writing was let down by the way the performance was without inflection and rushed.

Publisher's Summary:

Liane Moriarty says that "no one writes twisted, suspenseful novels quite like Sophie Hannah". Packed with twists and clues, simmering with tension, this electrifying new thriller shows why.

She's the most famous murder victim in America. What if she's not dead?

Pushed to the breaking point, Cara Burrows flees her home and family and escapes to a five-star spa resort she can't afford. Late at night, exhausted and desperate, she lets herself into her hotel room and is shocked to find it already occupied - by a man and a teenage girl.

A simple mistake at the front desk...but soon Cara realizes that the girl she saw alive and well in the hotel room is someone she can't possibly have seen: the most famous murder victim in the country, Melody Chapa, whose parents are serving natural life sentences for her murder.

Cara doesn't know what to trust - everything she's read and heard about the case or the evidence of her own eyes. Did she really see Melody? And is she prepared to ask herself that question and answer it honestly if it means risking her own life?

Keep Her Safe

So so boring and no conclusion. I hated this book because it abruptly ended with a conundrum.

No!

I struggled and had to push myself to get thru this. Unrealistic, I hated the narration and it seemed never ending. Definitely don't recommend.

No mystery. No suspense. No point.

No recommendation for this book at all. It had a few interesting characters and one really annoying one. Not worth the time.

Another Awesome bk by David Gemmel & Sean Barrett

About 6 wks ago I found David Gemmells "Legend" The story of Drugs the Deathwalker & have burned through the Drenia series @ a pace that saddens me cause I know it's drawing to an end. Everytime Iv read/listen to one of DG's bks voiced by the outstanding Sean Barrett (a top 3 narrator in my personel pantheon on narrators) I think of Nine Fingers & for those of you that know the genre that's high praise. So staying with that thought if you love the "Bloody Nine" don't wait, start with Legend & I'll meet you @ the end of the Drenia series. Yes, it's that good!

Sean Barrett is the perfect voice

for David Gemmell's work! Turned a long drive alone into an adventure in Gemmell's world. Thoroughly enjoyable!

The worst part of the Drenai series. But still OK

All jokes repeating over and ovet. The plot doesnt make much sense either. But still enjoyable.

Purple mountains with two moons.

8 books in to a series of 11 and I'm still gripped from start to finish.

Although I enjoy the books of David Gemmell, I have to add the narrator Sean Barrett provides a truly outstanding performance. One thing I will do once I have concluded the Dream series will be to check other books narrated by Sean Barrett. A great meld of author & narrator.

Better in text but Gemmell still pulls through

Which scene did you most enjoy?

My favourite scene would give away a spoiler

Any additional comments?

I am not a big fan of audio books from authors I usually take the time to read such as Gemmell because I hear the narrators voice when I go back to reading the books. However, when I don't get time to read anymore audio books like these can help make up for it when driving or walking the dog etc.

I read this a few years ago on my kindle so getting the audio companion price is what tipped me over into making this purchase. With the one exception of how the narrator does the females voices there is nothing to pick fault about.

The book/story is as good as anything else by Gemmell and the narrator rises to the challenge of performing what I consider to be epic fantasy by the best author in this genre ever.

When eccentric billionaire Ellis Holloway hires renegade marine biologist Sam Aston to investigate the legend of a monster in a remote Finnish lake, Aston envisions an easy paycheck and a chance to clear his gambling debts. But he gets much more. There is something terrible living beneath the dark waters of Lake Kaarme and it is hungry.

As the death toll mounts, Aston faces superstitious locals, a power-hungry police chief, and a benefactor's descent into madness as he races to find the legendary beast of the lake.

Members Reviews:

Creature feature!!

I'm such a sucker for a good underwater adventure, or indeed any adventure that has prehistoric creatures trying to eat you!! So upon seeing this, I dived in. And, as I kind of guessed before starting, I found myself immersed in an action packed, enthralling, underwater adventure, that ticked all the right boxes.

Plot wise, I loved it. Sam Aston is called upon by an eccentric billionaire, Ellis Holloway, after one of Ellis's previous employees disappeared. He left behind some compelling evidence to show that there may be something in the lake in a Finnish village. Sam knows the guy is crazy, but with a chance to clear his growing gambling debts, he decides to entertain the man. Easy money, right? Nope, there is something lurking in the lake and it's hungry!!! The plot was fast paced, entertaining, actually quiet believable (when it came to how the beast came into the lake) and a rollicking adventure!!

All the characters were well written and developed. Sam is the lovable rogue whom you can't help but love. We have a hot tv host whom is also quite smart, and we have the eccentric billionaire whom loves all things cryptids and is willing to fund the trip to find the proof of a prehistoric creature, and we have other characters who all add up to make the book interesting and intriguing.

It's also not just about the beast. We see and hear things from the small village to question whether the creature is there by choice. There seems to be other beasts around... the two legged kind, and it just goes to show that beasts aren't always just animals. I was intrigued about the books in the basement and need to know more about their origin and what they are!! I really, really hope there's more to come!!

In all, this was awesome. I flew through it and absolutely need more!! I will definitely check out more from both authors and can only hope they have some creature feature books written!!!

Jeffrey Kafer is one of the best in the business. He has narrated numerous books, in numerous genres and never fails to deliver. It's the same here!! He is so easy to listen to and nails the performance. He had me on the edge of my seat all the time but especially during the tense moments. He just knows how to bring a story to life!!

I was voluntarily provided this audiobook for free from the author, narrator, or publisher. This in no way affected nor influenced my thoughts.

Interesting story, difficult reader.

I enjoyed the story with good action and an interesting monster. The narrator, however, seemed to be channeling a poor Philip Marlowe voice. His versions of accents were lackluster and nearly nonexistent, making an Aussie sound like a faded Boston, MA. Seeing as the main story takes place in Scandinavia, the local characters had almost no accents at all.

Title: When Eight Bells Toll

Author: Alistair MacLean

Narrator: Jonathan Oliver

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10 hrs and 22 mins

Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Limited

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 17 votes

Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Suspense

Publisher's Summary:

From the acclaimed master of action and suspense. The all-time classic.

Millions of pounds in gold bullion are being pirated in the Irish Sea. Investigations by the British Secret Service, and a sixth sense, have bought Philip Calvert to a bleak, lonely bay in the Western Highlands. But the sleepy atmosphere of Torbay is deceptive. The place is the focal point of many mysterious disappearances. Even the unimaginative Highland Police Sergeant seems to be acting a part. But why?

This story is Alistair MacLean at his enthralling best. It has all the edge-of-the-seat suspense and dry humour that millions of fans have enjoyed for years.

Critic Reviews:

"Keeps up its high-wire tension all the way. Not to be missed." (The Guardian)

"A cracker-jack opening. Insistently readable." (Evening Standard)

"Breathless action...and a sterling plot." (Financial Times)

Members Reviews:

My Favorite Thriller Writer

I thought I had read all Alistair's books more than 40 years to go but to my surprise I missed one. Alistair Maclean has always been my favorite thriller writer because he has great characters, his books move at a fast pace, his stories are well researched, and the action is realistic and non-stop. Glad to hear that his books are now on audible and it was better than reading it. Guess now I'll have to go down the list of all his books I read before to listen to them this time because they are still as great as when they were first written. Thanks Audible.

Terrible Narrator

Would you try another book from Alistair MacLean and/or Jonathan Oliver?

Alastair MacLean? Absolutely! Jonathan Oliver? Not even on a dare.

What other book might you compare When Eight Bells Toll to and why?

John LeCarre, or Ian Fleming, would be the closest comparisons, I think. MacLean was probably the best of the Cold War - spy - thriller authors, at least until Tom Clancy came along. All of MacLeans novels are really great reads, and Eight Bells is one of his best.

Would you be willing to try another one of Jonathan Olivers performances?

Not only no, but h*ll no. Listening to him ruin two good books was three too many.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Extreme disappointment. A really great book, one of my favorites, ruined by terrible narration.

Any additional comments?

Did someone really think Jonathan Oliver was a good choice of narrator? Really?Please, please... for the love of good literature, and all that is decent and good, re-do the entire Alastair MacLean collection, with a narrator who doesnt make every character sound like a tweaked-out cockney cab driver. Perhaps Bill Bryson, Michael Pritchard, David Tennant (perfect choice!), or Frank Muller?

I love this book.

Ive been reading Alastair Maclean since I was a teenager this book. This book has always been one of my favourite books of his so to find it as an audio book has been a delight. It was hugely enjoyable. I devoured it in 3 listenings.

When Eight Bells Toll

This has always been one of my favourite Alistair Maclean books. I have read it a dozen times and, in my head, have used accents and dialects that I thought suited the characters. Now I have listened to someone else's interpretation and, to be honest, am disappointed. I missed the little gems of humour that I always found made this book special, but the narrator seems to have played these down.

Publisher's Summary:

When a man careens off the road into the frigid waters of the Chautauqua River, Chief Detective David Wolf risks his own life to bring the man to shore. News of Wolf's bravery travels fast through the burgeoning ski town of Rocky Points, Colorado, and before long he's pulled into the political grinder, where candidates are eager to exploit Wolf's character for their own gain.

Injured as well in the process, it seems his heroic deed was some cruel twist of fate, that is, until he meets Lauren Coulter, a new girl in town and a nurse at the local hospital. Lauren is smart, beautiful, and just Wolf's type. The connection between them is there. But just as they get started, so does the killing. And as bodies start emerging, so do the secrets from Lauren's troubled past.

Has fate steered Wolf to the wrong woman? Or is someone more devious behind the wheel? Lives will depend on how fast Wolf can come up with the answer, and this time, living with failure will prove to be something much worse than death.

Publisher's Summary:

On a cold night in Australia, two construction workers driving along a deserted mountain road are gunned down inside their vehicle. The killings are fast. Efficient.

An assassination carried out with expert precision. The only witness to the crime is a man resting by the side of the road. Recently retired, he'd flown halfway across the world to escape his demons.

Ex-US black ops operative Jason King.

Quickly spotted, King is targeted by those in the shadows of a small country town, ruthless killers determined to tie up loose ends. They have no knowledge of the violent past they are about to revive....

Members Reviews:

Fast paced with plenty of action...

As the other reviewer for this book said, this is a Jack Reacher-ish sort of character with the biggest exception being that instead of him traveling around the United States he is a globe trotting "knight in shining armor "! He's also got some personal demons he's running from. He knows he's done some bad things in the name of good being a former DELTA but still can't help but feel guilt.

In this book he's in Australia. While sitting under a tree he sees two construction workers murdered in cold blood by what he believes are contract killers. When he goes to the closest town he finds it is very small and is being terrorized by a group of motorcyclists who think they are bad boys. That is until they meet Jason King, the protagonist. He's got all the time in the world to do what he thinks is right!! Sounds a little familiar huh? But with The bar being set by Lee Child it's kind of hard not to make comparisons. This story takes a strange twist about 1/2 way through and Jason realizes it's not so coincidental that he's there at the same time as the hired guns, he recognizes someone he used to work with.

Anyway, I found this to be a very entertaining, fast paced, action packed and believable book. No superman antics. It will be interesting to see how this character progresses.

Roger Wayne does the narration. I've never listened to him before but thought he did a great job.

My next purchase will be the newly released second book in this series.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

If you found this review helpful please indicate so.

Thank You.

High octane suspense thriller!

Over recent months I've read the 4 and 5 star reviews by Audible listener Shelley of the six novels in the Jason King series. So gave Book 1 a try.

Think of Jason King as a globe trotting Jack Reacher with a cell phone. In addition Jason King has a confidential military past as a US government hit man. Many extreme action thrillers tend to substitute continuous for as plot. Isolated has both a very good plot and huge amounts of action. Certainly much of the fighting and other extreme action by the protagonist strains credibility bounds, but it's called fiction for a reason. This series will appeal most to adrenaline junkies.

Isolated is that first book I have listened to Roger Wayne narrate. His narration is outstanding.

Started off okay - Got steadily worse throughout

This book doesn't make any sense.. A Jack Reacherish type person... No reason to be doing what he's doing. A random do-gooder who makes it his business to get into things not his business.

Members Reviews:

This series gets better and better!

This series keeps getting better, as the primary characters become more complex. I started listening because Imogen Church narrates, which is a compelling reason to try to a book; and I liked the first two novels; but the last two are stellar. Thanks Clare Donaghue, please keep them coming!

...and this time, narrator overcame Wind / wind

...block that I have heard even THIS narrator pronounce incorrectly (pronouncing the word wind as in. "the wind is blowing" for such setences as "she winds her hair around her finger" 5 stars for improving Imogen!

A struggling mystery

This book starts so well but as it gathers a faster pace it veers into grand confusion. I like the London detective duo and the use of history from 1789. The story line develops well, so well I carved time in my day to listen. If you can forgive the silly ending you will have a good read.

Confused

Several issues with this book!!! The ending of the non historical plot is for me inconclusive. Why was Pippa murdered and what was in the letters????????? What is their relevance???!!!!Unfinished plot. The author uses the same phrase "stretching the word" multiple times!!!!! Finally the use of a male actor to do the main male parts in book 1 was excellent. Sadly the female narrator who carries on solo in subsequent books lets the books down when trying to do male voices esp the main male character.

Really average story

First time I've listened to a DI Lockyer book and I won't rush to listen to another. A really average story that I struggled to listen to all the way through. Am afraid I'll be returning this.

Resumen del editor:

Harriet Vanger desapareció hace treinta y seis años en una isla sueca propiedad de su poderosa familia. A pesar del despliegue policial, no se encontró ni rastro de la muchacha. ¿Se escapó? ¿Fue secuestrada? ¿Asesinada? El caso está cerrado y los detalles olvidados. Pero su tío Henrik Vanger, un empresario retirado, vive obsesionado con resolver el misterio antes de morir. En las paredes de su estudio cuelgan cuarenta y tres flores secas y enmarcadas. Las primeras siete fueron regalos de su sobrina; las otras llegaron puntualmente para su cumpleaños, de forma anónima, desde que Harriet desapareció. Mikael Blomkvist acepta el extraño encargo de Vanger de retomar la búsqueda de su sobrina. Periodista de investigación y alma de la revista Millennium, dedicada a sacar a la luz los trapos sucios de la política y las finanzas, Blomkvist está vigilado y encausado por una querella por difamación y calumnia presentada por un gran grupo industrial que amenaza con arruinar su carrera y su reputación. Contará con la colaboración inesperada de Lisbeth Salander, una peculiar investigadora privada, socialmente inadaptada, tatuada y llena de piercings, y con extraordinarias e insólitas cualidades.

Así empieza esta magnífica novela que es la crónica de los conflictos de una familia, un fascinante fresco del crimen y del castigo, de perversiones sexuales y trampas financieras; un entramado violento y amenazante en el que, no obstante, crecerá una tierna y frágil historia de amor entre dos personajes absolutamente inolvidables.

El 27 de agosto no te pierdas Millennium 4, Lo que no te mata te hace más fuerte.

Vuelve Lisbeth. Millennium continúa.

Publisher's Summary:

The classic World War II thriller from the acclaimed master of action and suspense.

One winter night, seven men and a woman are parachuted onto a mountainside in wartime Germany. Their objective: an apparently inaccessible castle, headquarters of the Gestapo. Their mission: to rescue a crashed American general before the Nazi interrogators can force him to reveal secret D-day plans.

Critic Reviews:

"A real humdinger. The best MacLean." (Daily Mirror)

"There is a splendid audacity about Where Eagles Dare, in which a handful of British agents invade an 'impenetrable' Gestapo command post...MacLean offers a real dazzler of a thriller, with vivid action, fine set pieces of suspense and a virtuoso display of startling plot twists." (The New York Times)

Members Reviews:

Great Book, Terrible Performance

This is one of my all-time favorite thrillers. But, in this case, a great book is all but ruined by a truly terrible narrator. His accent is atrocious. He makes Smith and Wyatt-Turner, characters of brilliance and sophistication, sound like uneducated cockneys, who scream constantly.

Please! Do it over, and get Bill Bryson or Micheal Pritchard to do the reading.

One of MacLeans best!

I have been waiting years for Audible to get Alistair MacLeans books. This has always been one of my favorite of his books, a very entertaining and enjoyable wartime thriller. The narrator is wonderful.

Wonderful to have Alistair MacLean available

If you could sum up Where Eagles Dare in three words, what would they be?

The book sticks close to the movie of the same name, which is not surprising when you realize that MacLean wrote the movies screenplay before the novel. Richard Burton's young son complained to his father that he could not see any of his dad's movies, so the actor approached MacLean to rectify this. And to my mind this is perhaps the most thrilling and exciting novel from MacLean and a very easy purchase.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Yes, I know the plot backwards and forwards from the movie but you get so involved in the action that you forget that you already know what happens. This means (for me at least) that this title will have a high replay value

What about Jonathan Olivers performance did you like?

I think Oliver did an excellent job. At first I wasn't so sure about Oliver but as the book went on I got used to Oliver and consider him up there with the likes of Simon Vance (my personal favorite narrator)

Any additional comments?

It's wonderful to see unabridged MacLean narrations on audible. He is my favorite author. I snapped all eight of them at once and look forward to seeing more in the future. Please, Audible let's get the whole MacLean series available. Many thanks in advance :)

A great story, not dealt justice

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Possibly not. I love the story, it is a classic, and possibly Maclean's best work... but.. it is only a good listen if the narrator can recreate this. The producer/editors should also take some of the blame to. This recording is not upto the standard of the 40 year old cassette version!

Who might you have cast as narrator instead of Jonathan Oliver?

Anyone! (David Rintoul, Toby Longworth, Matt Addis, but as they are soooo good and therefore possibly to expensive to employ)..
