I was very glad that my three dogs were sitting with me while I read this story. Especially since my name is Serena, the same as the character. It captured my attention immediately and as I read, I found myself reacting as though it was actually happening to me. A very well written story!

Surprisingly great!

I make it a rule to NEVER read short stories, I started this one on accident. I did not realize it was a short story until it was over. It was AMAZING. I wanted more. I loved the twist it took. Please please write into a full length novel.

A thought provoking read

This short is well written with several twists and turns. It doesnât take any time to read, yet I found myself thinking back on it for days after. If you are looking for something quick, entertaining and will stay with you long after the end, I highly recommend recommend it.

Suspenseful

Well written and very suspenseful. Felt as if I was riding along with her. The end was not expected. Excellent.

Don't waste your time

Terrible. Hated hmthis read. Can't believe it was even on Amazon book list.

Publisher's Summary:

When 17-year-old Isabelle Mattias, the privileged daughter of an artist and a dead rock star, disappears from her college in the middle of the night, Chief Superintendent Andrew Fenwick arrives to investigate. As unsettling hints of an abusive past surface, Fenwick grows ever more concerned for Isabelle's safety. Is it too much to hope that the girl is still alive? And meanwhile, Inspector Louise Nightingale is preoccupied with her own investigations into the identity of a serial rapist.

Could their separate inquiries be linked, forcing the pair to work together once again? As the country is gripped by a treacherous and icy winter, Fenwick and Nightingale must use all their skills to reveal the sinister truth ...

Critic Reviews:

"Unusual and intelligent.... The detection element is cleverly done and the story genuinely exciting." (Literary Review)

"A meticulously plotted novel that is deeply unsettling almost to the final climax." (The Scotsman)

Members Reviews:

The best of the series so far.

I like the way the author uses a prologue to introduce story characters. The story builds interest with complex interplay of the characters of the series alongside the story characters.

The series characters continue to develop in the background, with links to the other books in the series, (though these are explained so the story stands up on it's own merit) this gives depth to the books.

The story line is interesting and builds suspense to a gripping climax.

Storytelling at it's best and very difficult to put down.

Can't wait for the next one...

Disappointing

Disappointed as I have enjoyed the other books in this series a lot more. The relationship between Fenwick and Nightingale seems to be added on as an afterthought, whereas in the previous books in the series it's been a welcoming distraction from the gory details! And their characters seem to have suffered quite a shift in how they behave and think since the previous book.

Not much characterization of the other characters either, even good old Bob gets dropped from the storyline, and the victims' characters came across as shallow and unformed.

The narrator's portrayal of women's and children's voices verged on the ridiculous, which I hadn't noticed in his narration of other Elizabeth Corley books. I can't believe anyone speaks with such a high pitched voice or / and a posh accent.

As usual I liked the length which gives me better value for money from Audible, but in this instance would have preferred something shorter yet more interesting.

Long-winded tale

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

I found the story rather cliched and unbelievable - for example the Superintendent being so intimately involved with an investigation of this sort and the relationship between him, his family and the Detective Inspector incredible

Has Dead of Winter put you off other books in this genre?

No, I enjoy thrillers.

Would you listen to another book narrated by Jonathan Oliver?

No, I found his delivery rather stilted and old-fashioned

Did Dead of Winter inspire you to do anything?

Not to listen to any other books by this author

Any additional comments?

The story was far too long-winded and the final scenes unbelievable

Title: Death in Holy Orders

Author: P. D. James

Narrator: Daniel Weyman

Format: Unabridged

Length: 13 hrs and 52 mins

Language: English

Release date: 02-06-15

Publisher: Faber & Faber

Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Suspense

Publisher's Summary:

An Adam Dalgliesh mystery. Set in her beloved East Anglia, Death in Holy Orders is the fourteenth novel in P.D. James' Adam Dalgliesh series and a thrilling work of crime fiction filled with intrigue and suspense.

Death in Holy Orders is set in an Anglican theological college on a desolate stretch of the East Anglian coast, a location which she has made particularly her own.

When the body of one of the students is found on the shore smothered by a fall of sand, his wealthy father demands that Scotland Yard reexamines the verdict of accidental death. Dalgliesh has visited St. Anselm's in his boyhood and, as he is due for a holiday, agrees to pay a visit, expecting no more than a nostalgic return to old haunts and a straightforward examination of the evidence given at the inquest. Instead he finds himself embroiled in one of the most horrific and puzzling cases of his career. Other visitors come to the college on the weekend of his arrival, not all of them with benign intent. One will never leave it alive.

Death in Holy Orders, a masterly exploration of an isolated and beleaguered community coping with the evil and disruption of murder, has all the qualities which distinguish P. D. James as a novelist: the sensitive evocation of place, a complex and credible mystery, respect for forensic detail, and the tension of a plot that never flags.

P. D. James was a best-selling and internationally acclaimed crime writer. She was the creator of Adam Dalgliesh and Cordelia Gray and their long, successful series of mysteries. Her works include Cover Her Face (1962), An Unsuitable Job for a Woman (1972), Innocent Blood (1980), Children of Men (1992), and the Jane Austen-inspired Death Comes to Pemberley (2011).

James was born in Oxford in 1920. She won awards for crime writing in Britain, America, Italy, and Scandinavia, including the Mystery Writers of America Grandmaster Award. She received honorary degrees from seven British universities, was awarded an OBE in 1983, and created a life peer in 1991. In 1997 she was elected president of the Society of Authors and stood down from this role in 2013.

Critic Reviews:

"At the height of her powers...thoroughly gripping." (Guardian)

"A grand gothic novel of gut-wrenching suspense, satisfying at all levels.... Nobody can put the reader in the eye of a storm quite like P.D. James" (Sunday Express)

"Death in Holy Orders is pure pleasure." (Spectator)

"It is a long time since I submerged myself in a book with such blissful enjoyment." (Country Life)

Members Reviews:

The Queen of Crime In Her Prime

Would you listen to Death in Holy Orders again? Why?

I read Death in Holy Orders when first published in hardback. It was a pleasure to revisit such a powerful work in narrated form; James excels at creating a closed environment where characters are at odds with each other. The ecclesiastical background is novel and fascinating; high Anglican church rituals and modes of thought are unlike everyday life yet characters still exhibit human flaws. James is famous for the vivid way she includes the east coast landscape into her books, and rightly so.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Adam Dalgleish though it is difficult to imagine he is actually a policeman; perhaps he should have followed in his father's footsteps and become a vicar.

Novel? Novella? story?

Eliza heard the words retirement and club followed by gunfire. It was over quickly, and they were gone...with her voice. A pregnant ex-assassin has days to recall a lifetime, retrieve two stolen chips that control the US defense system and save two children from termination by the Club, which trained her. Only she can't remember the Club, and the children belong to the woman she terminated, and the Club wants them dead.

My first issue was to decide if this is a very short novel, a very long short story, or a medium length novella. I do realize that the rules for length or even for what is considered a book dont really apply to digital publications, and that the appropriate length for a full length novel was determined mostly by marketing departments, but I guess Im old fashioned about some things. What I *am* sure of is that I would almost never spend an Audible credit on such a short work, and unless there were compelling reasons to do so, would be unlikely to pay cash for it, either.

In addition, this was one of the most well written and most confusing works of fiction Ive read in a very long time. The author uses language beautifully, can set a mood, describe action, and even create very believable dialog. But I still have no idea what either the club or their adversaries are, or what role they actually play. I could have wished that the author had taken the time and space to provide a stronger foundation, so that we knew, for example, if the Club is a rogue Federal agency, a Terrorist group, or a far less than legal commercial enterprise. Same with the Watchers. Who are they, and for whom do they work?

I found the characters to be more than a little stereotypical, too. The good ones were way too saintly, the children too angelic, (not to mention absolutely beautiful), and the villains absolutely and unrelievedly villainous. Even the few who were supposed to be good guys in disguise didnt work well, for me.

The only way I can make this book work in my mind is as an allegory, but again, Im not sure what that allegory would be about. Good and evil? Sin and redemption? Possible, I suppose, but not especially interesting, at least not to this reader.

The narration was extremely professional in every way, and the narrator uses her voice to excellent effect.

I give the narrator 4 stars and the book 3 stars.

I received a free copy of this book in exchange for this unbiased review from audioBookBlast dot com.

Suspenseful, Surprising and Confusing

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Yes it was. It was a suspenseful and surprising story.

Would you recommend Lead Us Not to your friends? Why or why not?

It would not be my first choice for a recommendation.

Title: Run from Judgment

Subtitle: Merritt Fury, Book 3

Author: Edward Cline

Narrator: Robert Burke

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10 hrs and 19 mins

Language: English

Release date: 02-04-15

Publisher: Edward Cline

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes

Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Suspense

Publisher's Summary:

Merritt Fury is the unconquerable American entrepreneur who, in Whisper the Guns, foiled a Red Chinese conspiracy in Hong Kong,and in We Three Kings gave a Saudi sheik his just desserts. Now, in Run from Judgment, he finds himself the target of a mysterious assassin who is eliminating, one by one, the financial enablers of the world's terrorists. He is also the object of another entrepreneur's malice and finally the subject of a captivating portrait painter. At the same time, he is the primary suspect of a British homicide detective who believes Fury has committed the inexplicable assassinations. This is the third and latest in the Fury series.

Members Reviews:

A well-written suspense novel

This novel features memorable characters and a good plot that has some surprising twists.

This is my favorite of the author's books featuring Merritt Fury, an American entrepreneur whose strong principles often lead him into conflict (sometimes deadly) with prominent - and far less principled - people. His strong values also naturally attract him to other people who, like him, seek the best in everything they do. At the same time, his adventures lead to discussions and conflicts about diverse topics including art, philosophy, romantic love, politics and individualism. He is truly a man of action - and also a man of the mind.

The combination of worthy characters and an exciting (and thoughtful) plot made this book a page-turner. But it's more than that: it's also a book that leaves one with memorable scenes and words, and lots to think about long after finishing the reading.

There are occasional references to events that took place in the earlier Merritt Fury novels (Whisper The Guns and We Three Kings - they're also good!) but I don't think it's absolutely necessary to have read them beforehand.

Finally - the title. Run From Judgment. I like it. It's very appropriate, because the book has quite a few people who are doing just that. Evading. Running from judgment: from facing the meaning of what they are doing. And then we see Merritt Fury and a few other characters who understand their own actions, have thought about them, and are justifiably proud.

A great paring with the Cyrus Skeen series

Smart, good character development, intelligent stories...

Very good book~!!~!

I like this series the most~!! I hope more follow~!!!

Five Stars

Worth reading.

Thought provoking

This story is so good that I have read it several times and will return to it again and again.

Title: Scarred for Life

Subtitle: Jessica Daniel, Book 9

Author: Kerry Wilkinson

Narrator: Becky Hindley

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10 hrs and 15 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-29-15

Publisher: Pan Macmillan Publishers Ltd.

Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Suspense

Publisher's Summary:

The ninth novel in the bestselling Jessica Daniel series.

DI Jessica Daniel is not having a good week. Her wallet's been nicked, the refurbished incident room is already falling apart, and a new football-mad constable is driving her crazy.

She also has bigger things on her mind. A student's body has been dumped in a wheelie bin at the back of a university building, with a vague link to an Olympic medallist and a theory that it could have been an induction which went wrong.

There's the tattooed shop raider who has her team stumped; someone attacking lone women; a chief inspector who seems to have a problem with her; and someone putting letters through her front door, insisting that she's caught the wrong man.

Worlds are colliding for Jessica--and, if she's not careful, someone close to her might not make it out in one piece.

Members Reviews:

I love this series!

I've listened to the whole series (all but the only one I can't find as an audio book) and I really have enjoyed them all.

What a great writer with excellent narration - will there be more?

I can't help but feel the ending could have been different though - I won't give anything away as it really is a great listen and you can make your own mind up! You really do start to learn more about Jessica and what makes her tick and see the other side of her.

Definitely don't want this series to end!

Great characters. Loved it, but . . . . .

Any additional comments?

This is well written with great, well drawn characters. So much so that I found myself rather loving it, despite becoming muddled at as to the role of various suspect male characters. The muddle unfortunately, never resolved. That sort of thing would usually see me abandoning a book and going for a refund, but with this, I still loved it. Funny that!

Excellent! Loved it!

Just the right amount of personal stuff mixed in with the detective stuff. The latter keeps you guessing and also lets you feel a bit smug when you work some things out.

Not the best

Is there anything you would change about this book?

The plot is a bit confused, and the ending very predictable. I was really disappointed with this book.

What could Kerry Wilkinson have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

It sure. Just found it boring.

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

Did her job with the standard of the book she had to work with.

Do you think Scarred for Life needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

No, not for me. I will not be buying another book by this author.

What a finish???

I absolutely loved this book. Listened to it straight through. It twisted and turned and and left me open mouthed at the end..

Publisher's Summary:

Tick, tock, tickety, tock. Time's slipping away, doc...

Emergency Room Physician Brent Cummings is harboring secrets he'd rather leave in the shadows of his past. But, when he finds a dead woman in a foggy park, all his skeletons come tumbling out of the closet.

In a deadly race against time, Brent attempts to alter the future so that he might finally let go of the past.

Will he heed the warning in the fog, or will fate prove more dependable than the good doctor?

Members Reviews:

An interesting stroll through drug addiction

Brent Cummings has an addiction to pain killers. and he is an emergency room doctor. Right off the bat, you can see how he might have an on going problem. One day on his way home, he stumbles across a womans body in the fog. He ends up accused of intent to distribute controlled narcotics by the police when they come to investigate and a coworker (Plucky, a cancer specialist) must come to his aid. However, when he goes to the pharmacy to fill his prescription for methadone, he sees the same woman, living and breathing. Brent spirals in and out of sanity for the rest of the book.

To date, I have enjoyed several Lorn books. So I dove into this book expecting the same twists and surprises. However, I found this book rather predictable. Now, let me be clear. I was entertained through out. Lorn is an excellent story teller even if youve guessed where the story is going. Yet I kept waiting for that little bit of something extra that would put this story up there with other Lorn books. I think, in large part, the lack of surprises is due to the very small cast in this story. Essentially, we have drug-addled Brent, his helpful coworker Plucky, and the dead (or not dead?) woman. I guess you can count Brents altered awareness as a fourth wheel to the story. So from the beginning, I guessed the story would go one of two ways and at about the half way point, it became clear to me which way it was going to go.

Due to the small cast, there were fewer female characters than we normally see in works by this author. However, he doesnt skimp in making them whole and interesting characters. Theres several female side characters and even a memory of a lady from Brents past.

I enjoyed the details that went into the tale, especially the loose references to other Lorn books that take place in and around Bays End. As usual, Lorn put in small touches that made connecting with this story easy and entertaining. For instance, describing the graffiti drawn on the bottom side of top bunk where Brent has to spend down time amusing and yet I can totally see that being there. While predictable, there was still some suspense in seeing how it all unfolded and who would still be alive at the end. It was an enjoyable tale even if it lacked the polished genius of other Lorn works.

Narration: Kevin R. Tracy did a good job with this narration. He had a certain desperate intensity for Brent that carried throughout the book and even managed to sound somewhat high or strung out at times. Also, once the creepiness factors starting coming out in the dialogue, he did a great job of getting those across to the listener.

Fog Warning

A handsome doctor decides to eff up his life by taking prescriptions drugs. His drug addled state is noticed by co-workers in the ER but no one speaks up and he quickly spirals into full blown addiction.
