About this listen

'No one lives for ever. But the truth survives us all.' Kate Murray is deeply troubled. In front of her lies a dead man, a stranger who only minutes before had approached her wanting to tell her about a mystery, a long-forgotten murder.

The crime was old, he'd told her, but still deserving of justice. Soon Kate is caught up in a dangerous whirlwind of events that takes her back into her grandmother's mysterious war-time past and across the Atlantic as she tries to retrace the dead man's footsteps.

Finding out the truth is not so simple, however, as only a few people are still alive who know the story - and Kate soon realises that her questions are putting their lives in danger. Stalked by an unknown and sinister enemy, she must use her tough journalistic instinct to find the answers from the past - before she has to say goodbye to her future.

Yes I loved this book . Katherine Kellgren is one of the best narrators. She is brilliant while giving distinctive voice to each character. Susanna Kearsley is also a favourite. First of all she is very clever and really pulls you into her stories. She combines a storyline from the past with a current story. This novel is different. it was fun reading about Toronto, Ontario and Portugal.

Spins a great Tale

Way too long for no reason other than adding filler words
I found myself tuning out quite a bit of it as they made no difference to the story

Could have been much shorter

I found the back and forth between the past and present was hard to grasp at times. There was no real break or change of voices to indicate what time period we were in and sometimes I didn’t realize for a few minutes. Probably the worst past/present book I’ve read. And the narrator went waaay over the top with excitement sometimes. It’s was weird to me. I just had a hard time from start to finish following along so finally I gave up trying to figure it out and just listened. I finally finished just to say I did. It definitely didn’t grab my attention at all. Every time I put the book on I said to myself I wish it would just be done already. It’s a matter of principal for me. I paid for it I’ll listen to the whole thing.

Where are we now? How ‘bout now?

The story was engaging but the reader seemed to have difficulty transitioning between accents and at times added inflections verging on hysteria when the situation did not require such intensity. It was a bit of a distraction to the plot line and what was actually being said.

Good story, reader could be better.

This book started off very slowly but story started coming together eventually. The narrators occasionally attempt at setting a scene were to say the least jarring.

Slow to start

Very much enjoyed the story but the narrator is just awful. Terrible accents and just starts screaming into the microphone any time something even remotely exciting happens.

good story, terrible narrator

The accents and overly dramatic voicing is distracting at times but overall a clever story that holds your attention and written well enough that despite the multitude of characters and changes in timelines I managed to follow the threads.

Interesting story line
