Love this!

I have to really enjoy a book to give it 5 stars. I didn't just enjoy this. I loved it! So many mysteries (while good) have murder, a detective, & sometimes someone who is not a detective but wants to act like one but not this story. Even though I couldn't understand how the cipher worked (it was explained well but I'd need to see it) I was interested & in suspense from beginning to end. As usual with AKG books there's more than just one mystery/storyline going on yet it's easy to keep track of each of them & all of the characters. I've read about half of her books that are on Librivox & so far this is my favorite of hers. While I feel that only people that are native English speakers that have little to no accent should be reading I had no problem understanding every reading here. Multiple readers don't effect the quality of a book for me if I have no problem understanding it.

Another great story from Mrs. Green! I enjoyed this very much. Lots of multilayered and intricate twists that add up to a successful mystery novel.

Excellent! Ms. Green is the best mystery writer of her time and maybe even current times. Bet you could make your own cyfer based on info here. I recommend it- -never a dull minute.

……….just when you think it’s over, a new story appears. Green always provides a great listen, and the readers were terrific as well.

A typical Anna K. Green novel with multiple secrets and mysteries. There are many narrators and this makes it difficult to perceive the intended flow of the book. I had to replay a few segments to understand the narrator. I appreciate the volunteers who read but it would be nice if there were minimal English speech requirements for the readers. I recommend the book.
Thoroughly enjoyed

As unpredictable and intriguing as any AKG novel, yet quite a different sort of mystery than her detective and murder mystery fiction. Well read throughout and, for me, chapters 11-13 were a particular delight (stop the search, I've found the perfect reader!), but I'm sure it's each to their own in that regard.

Well read by all. Great AKG story with intrigue, paranormal, distress , romance, mysteries and so much more that provide for hours of listening joy. As usual a plot with lots of twists dialogue and great character builds with a strong climax and happy ending ... Thanks!
Enjoyable and kept me guessing

I did not see the ending coming at all. I thought it was well written and had enough plot twists to keep the story interesting till the end. Most of the readers were very good.
