A dead body. A family torn apart. Someone is lying.

Years ago, a forgotten Goya masterpiece was stolen from Teresa's family home, a crumbling mansion at Owl's Point. Ever since, Teresa has stayed away, terrified of the rumours surrounding the Black Painting and the jealous accusations that tore apart her family.

Now her grandfather has summoned his descendants back to the mansion to discuss his will, and Teresa knows she has no choice except to return. But when she arrives, she finds the door hanging open and her grandfather dead, his eyes open and staring at the empty space where the Goya once hung.

Someone in the family is lying, but will Teresa unravel the mystery of the missing painting before it is too late?

the black painting

"The Black Painting" follows the Morse clan, as narrated by granddaughter Teresa, after Alfred, the patriarch of the family, is found dead, with an expression of horror in his eyes, staring at the place where the mysterious and cursed Goya painting used to hang, but was stolen several years prior. A fight immediately commences over his estate, with his son Philip (Teresa's uncle) re-hiring art theft investigator Dave to try to find it. Meanwhile, Teresa is to stay at the house as she has been appointed executor for the arts portion of the estate. Problem is, that Teresa is sensitive and not privy to the secrets of the other family members swirling around her, kept both by her uncle Fred (a financial entrepreneur who has a habit for gambling with money), uncle Philip (an attorney who has been accused of being involved in the theft of the painting by the very man he hired to investigate the theft), as well as their children and Teresa's cousins--dark-tempered Ken, not-to-be-trusted Audrey, and strange James.

The story is interspersed between Teresa's chapters, and the investigator's, Dave's, chapters. It would have been helpful to have a family tree diagram at the beginning of the book, but overall I managed to get used to the characters--you just have to pay attention when they're introduced. The first three fourths of the book were well-done, but I found the resolution not as satisfying. It is unpredictable, but a bit too coincidental for my taste. I also don't like it when all the characters sort of randomly show up at the same time. Otherwise, a very well written story, with a bit of art-history involving Goya along the way.

If Agatha Christie Had Written "The Fall of the House of Usher"

This was atmospheric and well-written in a modern-Gothic-literary style. It's a "psychological thriller" in the sense that every single character could have benefited from psychotherapy. But even though I'm usually deeply uninterested in such books, this one had such a nice handle on dark moodiness, such nutsy characters, and so much lurking in the gloom that I had to keep going with it. Taking a cue from lots of other comments, I read the first quarter of the book closely in order to get all of the characters and the main plot threads, cheat-skimmed the middle, and then cut to the final fifty pages for all of the revelations, solutions, resolutions, recriminations and gunfire. It was a fun ride.

You start with ten little Indians. Four cousins at the bottom.

Incredible story

I would recommend this book to those who enjoy a good, wholesome story. There is no foul language which is a great change! Troy and Charles did an awesome job in character development. When is the movie coming out??

Two Stars

Not my type of story.

Great read

Good read, suspenseful, great plot. Surprise ending. You could actually visualize what was going on through out the story. Great

very good read it's captivating and you don't want to set ...

very good read it's captivating and you don't want to set it down, it's an exciting book yet it's wholesome.I would highly recommend it!

Redemption Is Calling

I just finished reading "Dead or Alive: The Reaper's Redemption" and really enjoyed the book!

I wasn't sure what to expect at first, but quickly found myself engaged in the story of Ray Mattax and his personal story of Redemption.

The characters were well developed with a great back story and questions and lose ends that came up during the story we're tied up in the end.

I really enjoyed Ray's journey and how the author's, found a creative way to interweave Ray's past life, present life, friends and family into the tale of his Redemption and coming to accept Christ and therefore take him into his new life.

I would recommend this book the everyone. The book does appeal to people with traditional values and most importantly Christian Values. However, that is something everyone can benefit from. If you're not a Christian this book can help you to understand God's saving Grace. If you've ever done things that in your mind seem horribly wrong and you cannot be redeemed from, this book helps you to understand how far God's grace reaches. If you're a Christian and you're struggling with why God allows certain things to happen, this book can help you to examine things from God's point of view and begin to see how "God works together all things for the good of those who love Him."

In closing, the story had a great message about redemption and salvation that can be found through trusting Christ. Sometimes the message of salvation is so simple that many cannot wrap their mind around why God would want to go to such lengths to have a relationship with them. The Reaper's Redemption will keep you on the edge of your seat and rooting for Ray as he discovers who he is truly called to be!

Members Reviews:

Weird...

So, what started as a kids, goosebumps-type, story ended up as a gory, definitely adult story. Creepy and nostalgic, and well read.i don't know what else to say, except that it exceeded my expectations, while still managing to shock me. An excellent modern fairytale, in the sense of the grimmest of the Grimm's.

An Awesome Surprise

I thoroughly enjoyed this short horror/paranormal thriller! Rick Gregory always delivers a fantastic performance and Kevin Millikin weaves a bizarre and enthralling story of familial love, loss and revenge. A man accused of murdering his family journeys home to confront his past and seek vengeance on those actually responsible for the horrific event. I would recommend this book to any friends who enjoy the horror/thriller genre!

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

Powerful emotions and a final twist

Something happened when Ian was still a child, and he was blamed about it. Something that has been with him since then. His only choice is going back where it all started.

This is a short story about a man who needs to face his past. The story is very well and richly told. It was easy to connect to Ian and understand his motivations. At times the emotions transmitted were very strong, and the story kept me on the edge of my seat.

There is a twist that I didnt see coming. I personally didnt really enjoy this turn of things, but Im sure it will delight others.

Rick Gregory delivered a great narration, transmitting Ians powerful emotions, keeping my attention until the very end with a very clear speech. The only setback were a couple of noticeable audio edits, but technically the rest of the audio production was fine.

I received a copy of this book in audio format from the narrator in exchange for an honest review.

Paranormal Revenge Story

I'm a sucker for revenge stories ever since I read The Count of Monte Cristo. This was a short and sweet story of revenge. Revenge on the paranormal is gory and brutal. A lot of times I say I wish that story were longer, this one wasn't that way at all. Perfect length for this story.

Another great read by Rick Gregory.

I wasn't expecting vampires..

Ian has lead a self destructive life since his family was killed when he was a teen and sets out to get revenge on the ones responsible which happen to be vampires.. Mmm... Okay.. Was this a young adult title? If I were a young teen, I would have loved this but as an adult, the story was lacking depth and creativity. It was mildly entertaining for a quick story.

As for the reader.. Well, I think i detected a bit of a Wisconsin accent and I suggest he try to lose it. Other than that not too bad.

Aside from a bit of bad language, I recommend this for tween/teens.

Book was great story. Could easily see how this could be a true story in todays world.

My only c/o is that one of the discs had a problem and one chapter while listening had a lot of skips present. Nothing visible to naked eye as to what problem might be. Remainder of discs all good and able to finish book.

I would definitely recommend this book highly

This novel kept me interested from the first chapter to the last page! Alix and Ben are two people who have their own baggage they live with but work well together! Alix as a top notch reporter and Ben as her camera man who traveled all over covering the news stories. They evolved as people during the novel and enjoyably so. I would definitely recommend this book highly!!!

Dangerous Games

I love all books by Danielle Steel. She is my favorite author.

I didn't want to put the book down. I think Clark should have gotten more done to him.

Games

This was a great read and very well written as usual. It really kept you on the edge at every turn of the page

Games

This was an excellent book and I could hardly put it down once I started reading it. I highly recommend it.

Captivating Listen

Typically I do not listen to many thrillers, as romance is my preferred genre, but I really enjoyed this one with all of the twists and turns. Parts of the book I really enjoyed and others not as much (I love dogs, so what happened I didn't like). The pace was fast and it kept me on my toes. I thought the narrator did a good job fitting the characters and the local dialect My review is not a synopsis of the book, but rather my opinion of it. I enjoyed the humor that was added to this book as well. I was provided with this review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Witty dialogue with great narration

What did you love best about Hail Storme?

I found the Wyatt and Chick to be two of the most interesting characters I've listened to.

What did you like best about this story?

Clever dialogue that made me chuckle several times.

What does J. Rodney Turner bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book?

The deep voice of J. Rodney Turner is perfect for such strong male characters. This was the first time I have listened to one of his performances but I will definitely be looking for more.

Any additional comments?

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

Everything you want in an action adventure

Any additional comments?

I absolutely love when a story and a narrator are perfectly aligned. That is definitely this listen!

This is my first J Rodney Turner listen but in no way will it be my last. His narration was perfection on a stick! I loved his dark and booming delivery and since I listen with earbuds most of the time, his is a voice I wanted constantly in my ears.

The story was an incredible action adventure with enough bad guys to go around. I loved how the author added levity and snark into the dark subject and then mixed in a great bromance. I didn't want it to end.

Thank goodness there will be a book two!!

Worth your time and credit

Any additional comments?

Worth your time and credit. A great suspense thriller with plenty of humor. This is a fantastic start to a series and one I will be definitley continuing with. I have to say the narration pulled me in immediately followed by the story about 3 sentences later. From there I was hooked. It's an interesting, engaging, fun, humorous and very entertaining story with an unusual great cast of characters.

The story moves at a fast pace with plenty of action. There is enough suspense, intrigue, mystery and twists to keep you on the edge of your seat. There was never a middle of the book slump. The action, suspense and humor were perfectly balanced to keep the story constantly moving.

Of coarse Storme was a great character but Chick was really interesting. He's got some serious secrets in his past.

J.Rodney Turner did a really good job with the narration.

"L'auteur n'a pas son pareil pour brouiller les pistes avec une grande intelligence, mêlant froideur, humour, émotion, suspense et violence. Avec un vrai sens des personnages à la psychologie très fouillée."
