Publisher's Summary:

Lexi Sturgis is a woman in a man's world, a war correspondent whose life has taken her to some of the world's most troubled regions. Lexi is never happier than when she's dodging bullets, chasing down the leads that other reporters only dream of getting, or swapping stories with her rivals at the bar. She thrives on risk, danger and the thrill of the chase, while keeping everyone else at arm's length - colleagues, friends, and lovers.

TV executive Jane Marshall needs a big idea. With her career nose-diving and her colleagues circling for her job, she needs to pull something major out of the hat. And Lexi might just be what she needs.

When a young British woman is kidnapped in Egypt, both Lexi and Jane are thrown together on a journey that will change their lives entirely. It will take them into a world where no one is quite what they seem and menace lurks in every corner. Sometimes, when your back's against the wall, the only thing to do is trust in the person closest to you....

An enthralling story of two women brought together in extraordinary circumstances from the best-selling author of Little White Lies.

Beautiful, Heartwarming, Always Follow Your Heart

I really enjoyed this story. It had a wonderful message. Life is short and the road is curvy. Danielle, who's been taking care of her elderly Aunt May, stumbles across an old photo and an apology note from a mystery man from years ago. Although her aunt never married, she had loved and turned her back on love and tells Danielle to 'Always Follow Your Heart'. She also found Aunt May's diary and discovered all the sacrifices she had made for her family. This is a book I'd recommend listening to or reading.

I thought the narrator Denise Krueger did a fantastic job. I loved her dialect.

Another thing is that I really like this author's style. Jacqueline Coote is multi-talented and I look forward to more from both her and Denise. Great Job!

I received this audiobook free of charge in exchange for an unbiased review.

Fav character is Danielle. I love her role in this story. I even love the accented voice the narrator used for her (sounds like a Brooklyn accent). It was great how Danielle pieced together the different parts of May's life.

Again, Danielle is my fav character. Great voice for her too! Very believable!!!

Who was the most memorable character of Meeting By Chance and why?

Título: El lugar del cuerpo [The Place of the Body]

Autor: Rodrigo Hasbún

Narrador: Alicia Díaz

Formato: Unabridged

Duración: 2 hrs and 32 mins

Idioma: Español

Fecha de publicación: 06-13-14

Editor: Audiomol

Categorías: Fiction, Contemporary

Resumen del editor:

Los hermanos y las madres y los padres deberían desaparecer, perderse, no decir nunca nada, piensa Elena, la protagonista de esta amarga y bella novela que ha escrito Rodrigo Hasbún. Elena se pasa la juventud imaginando formas poco dolorosas de matarse, pero no quiere que su historia sea triste. Por eso se entrega, mientras tanto, a melancólicos enredos sexuales, a la vez que bosqueja libros muy distintos a los que se escriben y celebran en su asfixiante país-provincia.Esta novela constituye una indagación sobre el dolor, sobre la legitimidad del dolor. Hasbún consigue una precisión que no proviene del lenguaje heredado sino del deseo de pillar la historia propia; de la valentía de encarar el pasado sin echar mano a redenciones o a espejismos.

This is us...

This is an eye opening look into what's coming down the road with our corrupt system of government and it's "Nanny state" policies. It's a warning to "get your house in order" and make preparations for the coming economic collapse. You have been warned!

Everyone should read this book! Thought provoking.

This book is a reflection of where we could be headed as a nation. Definitely held my interest the entire read.

A decent story

A good story that is full of hope for the country. It starts out great, but it seemed like thwe author got in a hurry to finish it up. The second half needs an editor.
