      Very interesting and intriguing. There are a lot of story lines that can be a bit confusing and are only vaguely wrapped up at the end, but overall I enjoyed the story and it kept me guessing
    • 5/5
      Storylines kept me guessing and entertained. However, the ending was weak in wrapping up all the stories. Narrator is good at bringing the story to life.
    • 3/5
      I don't know how this one got 5 stars. The story held my attention a little, but it was predictable. If you're halfway through and you think you know who the bad guy is, you might as well just stop listening because you'd be correct.
    • 5/5
      Always a treat reading any book written by Katrina Diamond.
