Resumen del editor:

Harry Bosch, detective de la Policía de Los Ángeles, ha sido siempre un solitario. Hijo de una prostituta asesinada, fue criado en orfanatos y luego quedó marcado por la dura experiencia de Vietnam. Ahora, un caso rutinario de muerte por sobredosis lo devuelve a su pasado. La víctima, Billy Meadows, había servido en su misma unidad. Ambos eran "ratas de túnel", ambos combatieron en los túneles del Viet Cong, y ambos habían experimentado el horror del "eco negro". Ahora Meadows está muerto, pero su rastro parece apuntar a un gran atraco bancario perpetrado a través de la red de túneles del alcantarillado.

Excelente historia de detectives

El famoso detective de Hollywood Harry Bosch una vez más nos mantiene en suspenso con esta entretenida y obscura historia de crímenes. La voz del narrador es muy buena y con gran capacidad actoral para interpretar casi 10 voces diferentes. Al inicio hay algunos detalles de mala edición pero no arruinan el relato. Incluso trae de regalo la siguiente aventura "El hielo negro". Ampliamente recomendado.

Buena novela y buena narración

Would you consider the audio edition of El eco negro [The Black Echo] to be better than the print version?

Resumen del editor:

David Gurney se sentía casi invencible, hasta que se topó con el asesino más inteligente con quien jamás había tenido que enfrentarse. Ha pasado un año desde que el ex detective de la policía de Nueva York consiguió atrapar al asesino de los números y, aunque es su intención retirarse definitivamente junto a su esposa Madeleine, un nuevo caso se le presenta de forma imprevista. Una novia es asesinada de manera brutal durante el banquete de bodas, con cientos de invitados en el jardín y ese es un reto al cual es imposible resistirse. Todas las pistas apuntan a un misterioso y perturbado jardinero, pero nada encaja: ni el móvil, ni la situación del arma homicida y, sobre todo, ni el cruel modus operandi. Dejando de lado lo obvio, Gurney empieza a unir los puntos que le descubrirán una compleja red de negocios siniestros y tramas ocultas llevadas por un sádico...

Opiniones de los miembros:

Muy recomendable

Exquisita narración de hechos muy violentos, pero sin violencia o morbosidad innecesarias. Una descripción muy amena y agradable de situaciones cotidianas, dentro de una pareja en la que, parte de las ideas se piensan y parte se comparten, tratando de agasajar a la otra parte, sin renunciar a sus preferencias (¿o sí?).

Una trama clara de una novela atrapante, que me mantuvo hasta el final con gran interés en la misma. Con gran cantidad de cuadros bien delimitados y entrelazados muy bien entre sí, sin que ninguno resulte superfluo: todos hacen su aporte. Aunque una parte del final se presiente, me sorprendió hasta el final. Y el epílogo es de los mejores que he leído.

En resumen: ¡MUY RECOMENDABLE.!

Un buen policial.- El autor no defrauda, la trama tampoco.

John Verdon me resultó todo un descubrimiento. De esos que hacen buscar otros del mismo autor.

De lectura fácil, sin demasiada sofisticación, pero lleva adelante la narración en forma dinámica, coherente, ingeniosa, entretenida.

No es EL libro para volver a leer, pero como producto de entretenimiento, cumple totalmente los requerimientos del género .-

Una trama compleja que te mantiene al filo del asiento hasta la ultima pagina

En mi opinión este libro supera al anterior Se lo que estas pensando. La trama es compleja pero muy bien descrita por el autor.

El detective Gurney se convierte en alguien al que tienes tiempo de conocer. No se después de este final como puede convencer a Madeleine de tomar otro caso. Ojala y lo logre

Ampliamente recomendable

no abras los ojos

Me gustó todo.

Lo recomendaría a adultos amantes de la lectura

Genial, lo mantiene a uno interesado hasta la última página

Atrapante

Lo que me gustan de este tipo de libros es que cuando los sueltas porque tienes que hacer otras cosas, tu mente sigue conectada con la trama tratando de atar cabos y llegar al final, entender lo que sucederá. Este fue uno de ellos donde mi mente siguió conectada y cada tiempo libre que tenía continuaba con la lectura. Atrapa de principio a fin.

Publisher's Summary:

An inspiring story of hope, redemption, and trying to hit the ball straight.

A year ago Travis McKinley, an unknown golfing amateur, shocked the world by winning the PGA Senior Open at Pebble Beach. Now he's famous, he makes his living playing the game he loves, and everything should be perfect. Still Travis can't shake the feeling that he's a fraud, an imposter who doesn't deserve his success - and after a series of disappointments and, to be honest, personal screwups, he might just prove himself right.

A shot at redemption arrives in an unexpected form: a teenage outcast with troubles of his own - and a natural golf swing. As this unlikely duo sets out to achieve the impossible on the world's most revered golf course, Travis is about to learn that sometimes the greatest miracles of all take place when no one is watching.

Members Reviews:

Crime Does Pay

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

Author a bully suspended golfer takes a smart ass polish teen under his wing to trespass and lie their way on to Augusta National Golf Course. A terrible example for kids.

Would you ever listen to anything by James Patterson again?

Perhaps.

Would you be willing to try another one of Henry Leyvas performances?

Yes.

What character would you cut from Miracle at Augusta?

The smart ass teen.

Any additional comments?

A great disappointment.

Cute Story, Limited Golfing Knowledge

Any additional comments?

I'm a little sappy. So I enjoy a cute story. I love golf, so a cute story about golf is even better. From the standpoint of a cute story, I enjoyed the book overall. And the reader did a great job which is always huge. However, there were nagging details that caused me to not enjoy the book as much as I otherwise would. The way the school bullying was described was very unrealistic. Things about the pro game were unrealistic or inaccurate. But, the biggest thing was Patterson doesn't know how to keep score. If you hit a drive, lose your second shot, take a drop and hit the next shot on the green, YOU ARE PUTTING FOR A FIVE NOT A FOUR!

Miracle?

I get the fiction part but a bit of a stretch for a first year golfer. Overall an enjoyable story.

Fantastic, but only if you are a golf fanatic

First of all, this is NOT James Patterson, but another of his collaborations. It reminds me a little of some of John Grisham's dalliances into "feeling good." It is not a suspense, but is simply a lesson in caring for other people. Luckily, I have a passing knowledge of golf, so I was able to keep up with all of it. If you are not a golf fan, you will probably hate this book. Even if you are a fan, it is a little slow and boring, but I will say the lessons learned in the end are good for all. Otherwise, this book would have been rated 1 or 2. The scenes and matches are very descriptive and the author definitely understood and used simile. I just found the story to be boring and not what I expected.

Awesome

Patterson has a true understanding Augusta I truly enjoy the book thank you.

Try some more golf storyline

Title: Hour of the Assassins

Subtitle: A Novel

Author: Andrew Kaplan

Narrator: Stephen Bel Davies

Format: Unabridged

Length: 13 hrs and 40 mins

Language: English

Publisher: Audible Studios

Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 7 votes

Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Suspense

Publisher's Summary:

To prevent the rebirth of one of the cruelest regimes in history, an ex-CIA agent goes Nazi hunting in master storyteller Andrew Kaplan's riveting thriller.

In the hell of Auschwitz, the devil was named Mengele. His atrocities were unspeakable, and among his victims were the wife and child of a man named Wasserman, who was forced to watch them die. Mengele survived the war, disappearing into hiding in South America, and Wasserman ran too - fleeing to America to make a fortune in pornography. Now he is dying of cancer, but before he goes, he wants to see Mengele dead.

To hunt the evil doctor, he recruits John Caine, an ex-CIA agent whose time in Vietnam gave him his own close-up view of evil. Seeking the Angel of Death in the jungles of South America, Caine discovers a sinister conspiracy code-named Starfish and realizes that Mengele is only the beginning.

Members Reviews:

Super mystery just for an outdoorsman

This is third of Kaplan's books I've read, and its the best. A very satisfying ending after an exhausting adventure that seem to never end.

Distracting Mispronunciations

Would you listen to Hour of the Assassins again? Why?

Only if it were read by someone else.

Would you be willing to try another one of Stephen Bel Daviess performances?

If I were narrating a book that contained words in a language that I don't speak, I would ask for assistance from a native speaker. Mr. Davies so mangles most German names and words that if I didn't have the Kindle text to consult I wouldn't have known what he was attempting to say. It's bad enough that he continually mispronounces Mengele's name, but his rendering of Seestern, another key plot word, doesn't even sound German.

Davies takes his liberties with a few English and Spanish words as well. Very distracting.

Title: The Rivals: Tales of Sherlock Holmes' Rival Detectives (Dramatisation)

Publisher's Summary:

Inspector Lestrade of Scotland Yard introduces 12 dramatised stories, featuring detectives whose abilities rival that of the great Sherlock Holmes.

Dramatised for radio by Chris Harrald, these 12 stories are written by masters of the crime and thriller genre, all contemporaries of Arthur Conan Doyle.

They include:

Members Reviews:

loved it

The full cast and sound effects were excellent. The stories were very good.

Good detective stories with Lestrade

If your looking for stories with only Lestrade in them. These are for you starts out with an reporter wanting stories on Sherlock Holmes but he ends up giving them stories of other detectives he worked with. Later on becomes his memoirs telling about his life as an detective. Would have like them to remain with the report coming and asking for more stories.

BRITISH QUICK PACING & SUBTLE HUMOUR,

Any additional comments?

I am not in agreement with the other reviewers who gave negatives. Here we find a kind, inquisitive, sometimes humble and even cultured Lestrade, nothing like Sir Conan Doyle's description, as far as I can see. These 12 enacted, not read,episodes are each unique, with different actors for each one, and different mysteries and milieux. The humor is subtle when present, but makes for lightheartedness, a nice feeling amidst occasional gruesomeness, which thankfully does not last long. For me, it was like a box of good quality chocolates with only your favorites, missing the ones you don't like!

Overly Cutsey and Lacking Suspense

What disappointed you about The Rivals: Tales of Sherlock Holmes' Rival Detectives (Dramatisation)?

I like ham... but with a side of grits and greens.

Has The Rivals: Tales of Sherlock Holmes' Rival Detectives (Dramatisation) turned you off from other books in this genre?

The concept was good, bridging the stories using Inspector Lestrade but the execution was less then engaging and in fact the result is a total lack of sympathy for Lestrade as a character and much more appreciation for Sherlock Holmes!

Would you be willing to try another one of the narratorss performances?

The performances were ok but the direction did not treat the material with respect going for campy humor instead.

What character would you cut from The Rivals: Tales of Sherlock Holmes' Rival Detectives (Dramatisation)?

Inspector Lestrade, as portrayed, could have been featured less and only as a way to introduce the next story.

Any additional comments?

Great idea, audio production was professional, but needed better direction.

Not Bad But No Match on Sherlock

I generally like most of these 12 plays for what they are; just common 'o' garden old style themed detective stories. Not bad storylines, well acted by most of the actors apart from Paul Rhys who as usual is too tight never seems to open up or let himself go into the psychology of any of his characters; too dull. Tim Pigott-Smith is good as usual and stands apart from all the rest of the actors as do Anton and Honeysuckle who all bring their own special panash. This said; unfortunately some of the story's are let down by the actors, giving the air of being at an amateur dramatics evening.

The writing is good but absolutely NO patch on Sherlock Holmes, they come no-where near.

Title: A Pleasure and a Calling

Subtitle: A Novel

Author: Phil Hogan

Narrator: Michael Page

Format: Unabridged

Length: 7 hrs and 50 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-06-15

Publisher: Brilliance Audio

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 104 votes

Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Suspense

Publisher's Summary:

In the tradition of Patricia Highsmith's Tom Ripley novels comes a deliciously unsettling, darkly funny novel about a man who quietly spies on the private lives of his neighbors.

You won't remember Mr. Heming. He was the estate agent who showed you around your comfortable home, suggested a financial package, negotiated a price with the owner, and called you with the good news. The less good news is that, all these years later, he still has the key. That's absurd, you laugh. Of all the many hundreds of houses he has sold, why would he still have the key to mine? The answer is; he has the keys to them all.

William Heming's most at home in a stranger's private things. He makes it his business to know all their secrets, and how they arrange their lives. His every pleasure is in his leafy community. He loves and knows every inch of it, feels nurtured by it, and would defend it - perhaps not with his life but if it came to it, with yours. Things begin to change when Mr. Hemings' obsession shifts from many people to one, and then a dead body winds up in someone's garden. For a man who is used to going unremarked, Mr. Heming's finds his natural routine becomes uncomfortably interrupted.

Members Reviews:

The Invisible Man

I enjoyed this selection as a refreshing change from the myriad police procedurals and crime thrillers that recycle the same old characters and the same old plots. William Heming is a true original, remaining completely invisible as he indulges his obsession to exist within the lives of those to whom he has sold homes searching their photo albums, eating their food, sometimes even creating secret nesting places where he can hide and observe. Sinister and decidedly creepy, there is also surprising and welcome humor as Heming takes care of his community by dishing out his own style of justice to those who are less than model citizens. He cultivates an affable, easygoing but forgettable personality to maintain his invisibility, and its easy to be charmed by this façade. But through his first person perspective he reveals the darker side of himself. The flashback sections of his childhood were the most riveting for me, revealing the building of a sociopath through his own eyes with a few convenient omissions he may or may not remember. This reminds me of the kind of stories seen on the old Alfred Hitchcock Hour not gory or violent, but seriously twisted and impossible to look away.

Very Creepy and Entertaining

Creepy story, but the creepiest character is the one you'll like best. Excellent narration perfect for the tale. Very well done.

Great read with an amazing narrator.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The main character is definitely quite eccentric, but that is what makes this such a good listen. The narrator makes this an absolute pleasure to listen to.

Fun and creepy!

Loved this book. These "unreliable narrator" books are popular right now, for a reason. It's not so much that Mr. Heming isn't truthful, he just forgets to add some important details when relating the story.

Lots of fun twists.

This reader gave Heming the right attitude and style.

I'm looking forward to Phil Hogan's next book.

An unpleasant "calling"

Decent narration but an unpleasant story.

Members Reviews:

Love the story, miss previous narrator

This is my second favorite Saint story. It has everything you love about the Saint adventures: adventure, rescues, high stakes, and fantastic hyperbole descriptions. The narrator is okay but difficult to listen to if you first heard the Frederick Davison version, especially when "singing" . That given this is one great story.

Flowery and dated.

The writing style is very much a thing of the past, with loads of hyperbole and gushing over how brave and wonderful the Saint is. If you can get past this,it's got some fun stuff.

Fabulous follow up to closes the case

great story. great ending. another great read.

the simplicity of actually what happened but the way it's told make for compelling listening

Title: For the Dead

Subtitle: A Poke Rafferty Thriller

Author: Timothy Hallinan

Narrator: Victor Bevine

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10 hrs and 53 mins

Publisher: Audible Studios

Publisher's Summary:

In Bangkok, Thailand, an American travel journalist and his Thai family find themselves inadvertently entangled in a web of dirty cops and far-reaching corruption when their daughters ill-gotten cell phone displays photographs of some very crooked cops, all of them thoroughly dead.

Poke Rafferty is happier than he's ever been. He's financially solvent, his family is about to grow larger, and his adopted Thai daughter, Miaow, seems to have settled in at junior high school. All that is endangered when Miaow and her boyfriend, Andrew, buy a stolen iPhone from a shady vendor and discover photographs of two dead police officers on it - disgraced officers, violently murdered to avenge the long-dead. Surrounding the murder investigation is a conspiracy that reaches the highest reaches of Bangkok law enforcement, and perhaps beyond. It soon becomes apparent that Miaow's discovery threatens the entire family - and if that's not enough, in order to survive, they may ultimately have to depend on someone who, in the past, has already betrayed them.

Members Reviews:

This is Tim Hallinan's world. We just live in it.

Where does For the Dead rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far?

It's way up there. Tim's writing is unique. It is hard to make comparisons. Each book is filled with humor. There are several serious chuckles on every page. I guarantee it. In addition, there is the beautiful family that Poke has created: his wife, Rose, their street-urchin daughter, Miaow (if you don't laugh at that name, then there may be no hope for you), a surprise character whom I will not name, as I don't want to be a spoiler; and Miaow's boyfriend, Andrew Nguyen, who is self-conscious, comes from a wealthy family, is a very gawky and awkward adolescent AND has diabetes: this is a well of inventiveness that it is a pleasure to jump into. I believe there is no bottom (not to stretch that analogy too far). The family also includes Poke's best friend, Arthit, a Bangkok policeman, who lets us see the corruption that the BPD is crippled by, as well as the individual well of human kindness that reaches into Arthit's soul. This is quite a band of characters, and Tim keeps us jumping from one scenario to the next. This is writing skill at its highest level. Tim is starting to win awards. The reviews from his colleagues are glittering. The cream has risen to the top. In the thriller/detective/quasi-detective genre (did I really write that?) Tim stands right up there with Thomas Perry. Fine company indeed.

What did you like best about this story?

I addressed some of this above. I think that the relationships between Poke and Rose, and the budding relationship between Miaow and Andrew: my interest in these will keep me coming back; that, and almost every other aspect of Tim's books. There is nothing that I didn't like about the book.

Which scene was your favorite?

Again, hard to pick. The chase scene in which Miaow and Andrew scramble through the heating ducts in the old abandoned hotel: this one is particularly mesmerizing.
