Yikes.

I really didn't like this book. It was terrible. Boring for the most part, you might be surprised by the fact that there is no thriller aspect of this book for most of it, even though it's a James Patterson. There is also no character depth. It's very expositional. For how long the book is I was surprised that I bonded with none of the characters. I would skip this one and save yourself the time.

Slow storyline, flat characters

This book was a slog for me. I really didn't enjoy it at all - they story is so slow, the characters are flat and it takes so long for the plot to go anywhere. Everything happens very quickly at the end and is predictable. Definitely not a thriller!

Great performances.

I really enjoyed listening to this book. The performances were very well done. So great to have Dolly read her part. Was a bit disappointed with the finish.

Editor needs to review the audio

The story was good but voicing needs some work as some of the acting wasn’t convincing. Also, there are several edits that need to be done to the audio. There were spots where some of the characters’ parts were in the written book but not in the audiobook. This was especially noticeable in areas where there was conversation - the dialogue didn’t make much sense. I would recommend that the proofing & editing team gave another look.

Good enough

Solid story but I was disappointed with the narrator.
Dolly Parton sounded drunk and with a sock in her mouth.

Very Enjoyable Story

Got a kick out of listening to Dolly Parton doing some of the narration. Her writing perspective makes the story more interesting. I enjoyed the characters. It is the characters that drive this story.

Engaging Story & Well Presented

This book moves along well with a couple of twists. It was engaging from the start and I looked forward to listening to the book each day on my walk. Dolly Parton does an excellent job and she was a good choice for this book.
