Literally couldn't finish it

The book is one I've been interested in for a while because I loved Lois Duncan as a child and always wanted to learn more about what happened to her daughter. However, I found this audiobook so painful to listen to that I literally had to stop. The lady sounds like a text to speech robot and I just couldn't do it anymore. I'm just gonna buy a physical copy of the book and read it

Unbelievable simply wow

This family has been let down by the system but they managed to find some sort of conclusion that we all need to grief from such tragic events

If you like psychics u will like this.

I’m into true crime so I thought I would love this. There was a LOT of extensive psychic readings and botched police investigations, or lack of investigations….

Not a True Crime Novel in the traditional sense

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

The Narrator has a very odd speaking pattern that became increasingly intolerable for me. She reads almost every sentence as an interrogative sentence. Her voice goes up at the end of each sentence as if she is asking a question even when she is reading a fact. So, possibly, I may have enjoyed this book slightly more if it had been read by another narrator.

Has Who Killed My Daughter? turned you off from other books in this genre?

No.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Who Killed My Daughter??

All scenes having to do with psychic readings should have been ommitted. As the genre implies, a true crime novel should be made up of known facts. The endless droning on about the numerous psychic readings the author attended was nonsensical and did not add to the story in any way at all. There is not one "fact" that was offered during any psychic reading that aided the author in finding the answer to her question "Who Killed My Daughter". The readings of these transcripts from the psychic were boring and pointless to this listener and detracted from the story.

Sad story. Horrible narration.

I was familiar with the story and the author. There is a personal connection to this family. However, the narration was absolutely horrible. Never again will I listen to any book she reads. please have someone else read this!!! You are doing a great disservice to Lois and the family.

Couldn't get through it

I legitimately tried to listen to this entire book. I got to about chapter 13 and just could not stand the monotone narrator any longer. I Googled how the story ends because I could not stand to listen to it anymore. It's like she thinks she's reading to a group of 5 year olds and has to annunciate every single word with zero emotion. Horrible.

Robotic

The narrator seems almost like a text to speech voice. Which is fine, but a bit odd.

True Story

I enjoy reading nonfiction. However, this story (even though there is a sequel) suffers from the number one issue with true stories, it is unresolved. So it is fascinating to read about the family, the case, and all the possible solutions. But you have to be okay without those answers.

3 Stars for Pity's Sake

This is one of the few books that I haven't bothered to finish. I do feel awful for the family that it is still unresolved but I just can't deal with all of the psychic visits. If I were in the authors shoes, I would probably do the same thing. (Looking for answers from the 'astral plane') but this book is basically just the psychic's 'automatic writing' transcripts that are written so poorly that it's still annoying at 2.5 speed. If you're looking for something written by someone who's had a family member murdered, I would recommend you check out something like 'The Red Parts" by Maggie Nelson.

Not the best

So much endless talking. While there was a story to be told, it just went on and on for ages. The oddest thing was how sweet the voice of the Mother was. It showed no sign of heartache or grief.
It seemed like there were 10 chapters of material stretched to 30+ chapters
