À propos de cet audio

“I read The Kingdom and couldn’t put it down ... Suspenseful ... Original ... This one is special in every way.” (Stephen King)

Two brothers. One small town. A lifetime of dark secrets. A tense and atmospheric standalone thriller from best-selling author Jo Nesbø.

Roy has never left the quiet mountain town he grew up in, unlike his little brother Carl who couldn't wait to get out and escape his troubled past. Just like everyone else in town, Roy believed Carl was gone for good. But Carl has big plans for his hometown. And when he returns with a mysterious new wife and a business opportunity that seems too good to be true, simmering tensions begin to surface and unexplained deaths in the town's past come under new scrutiny. Soon powerful players set their sights on taking the brothers down by exposing their role in the town's sordid history.

But Roy and Carl are survivors, and no strangers to violence. Roy has always protected his younger brother. As the body count rises, though, Roy's loyalty to family is tested. And then Roy finds himself inextricably drawn to Carl's wife, Shannon, an attraction that will have devastating consequences. Roy's world is coming apart and soon there will be no turning back. He'll be forced to choose between his own flesh and blood and a future he had never dared to believe possible.

Entertaining small town crime story. Takes place in Norway with multiple significant references to Barbados. The twists are all in the same direction so after a while you see them coming.

Fun and entertaining in true Jo Nesbo style

I have listened to over 40 books on Audible and am disgusted at the trend of using AI narrators. I'm trying to get through the second novel I've purchased with AI narration and it's like nails on a chalkboard. Is this the trend of the future? I really loved listening to audio novels on Audible, but I'm not sure I'll continue my membership. If these AI books aren't being read by humans, why am I paying the same amount of money?

Terrible AI narration.
