Historia
The man he knew as "Control" is dead, and the young Turks who forced him out now run the Circus. But George Smiley isn't quite ready for retirement-especially when a pretty, would-be defector surfaces with a shocking accusation: a Soviet mole has penetrated the highest level of British Intelligence. Relying only on his wits and a small, loyal cadre, Smiley recognizes the hand of Karla - his Moscow Centre nemesis - and sets a trap to catch the traitor.

Complex and still relevant

It was hard to follow as an audiobook because it’s more difficult to go back for a refresher on a character

The constant jumping around
Revisado: 11-21-23
Overall this is a wonderful story and a part of history that deserves to be told. But for half the book I was struggling to figure out the order of things and to whom they happened. This seems to be trend in a lot of novels I read but for this one it was just too much. At times I felt like someone had dropped the manuscript and didn’t bother to put the pages back in order. But I stuck it out the it was worth it for the story.

Historia
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

What a wonderful storyline, intertwining lives across time. Yes, it makes it a little challenging to keep track of characters when you can’t thumb back through the pages for a quick reference but I didn’t care. I knew it would come together in the end. Thank you!

Historia
In May 1996, two skilled backcountry leaders, Lollie Winans and Julie Williams, entered Virginia’s Shenandoah National Park for a week-long backcountry camping trip. The free-spirited and remarkable young couple had met and fallen in love the previous summer while working at a world-renowned outdoor program for women. During their final days in the park, they descended the narrow remnants of a trail and pitched their tent in a hidden spot. After the pair didn’t return home as planned, park rangers found a scene of horror at their campsite.

Good but long and convoluted
Revisado: 03-25-23
I have to agree with some of the reviews that the story is long and meanders into lives and issues I’m not sure really relate to the victims she set out to help. Although I am a fan of true crime stories, I could have done without sickening details that did not advance her conviction. I truly commend the author for devoting so much of her life and her emotions to exposing a gross misconduct of our FBI.

This is a great story, and great reminder of how far the roll of “housewife” and “homemaker “ have come. But we still have a long way to go, so I’m hanging on to the herb recipe 😉

Nora Kelly, a young curator at the Santa Fe Institute of Archaeology, is approached by historian Clive Benton with a once-in-a-lifetime proposal: to lead a team in search of the so-called "Lost Camp" of the tragic Donner Party. Benton tells Kelly he has stumbled upon an amazing find: the long-sought diary of one of the victims, which has an enigmatic description of the Lost Camp. Nora agrees to lead an expedition to locate and excavate it-to reveal its long-buried secrets. Once in the mountains, they learn that discovering the camp is only the first step in a mounting journey of fear.

The storyline was really creative and the characters good. I was glad to see the Cory Swanson character come back, I enjoyed the Pendergast books that included her. But couldn’t you have gotten one of the Pendergast narrators to cover his voice at the end?!!!

Historia
On the evening of November 24, 1971, D. B. Cooper hijacked Flight 305—Portland to Seattle—with a fake bomb, collected a ransom of $200,000, and then parachuted from the rear of the plane, disappearing into the night...and into history. Fifty years later, Agent Pendergast takes on a bizarre and gruesome case: in the ghost-haunted city of Savannah, Georgia, bodies are found with no blood left in their veins—sowing panic and reviving whispered tales of the infamous Savannah Vampire.

Started, but can't finish
Revisado: 02-12-22
I am not sure what I can say about the disappointing narration that others haven't already said. I accidentally started this book out of order and I was very confused, to say the least, on how it was being narrated. Especially Constance Green! While investigating the drastic change, I realized I had skipped a book I went back and read the Crooked River. But now that I am done, I just can't bring myself to go back to listening to Bloodless.
I will return the audiobook and hope for more Pendergast stories to come but with another narrator. I'm sure Mr. DeMeritt is very talented but I don't listen to audiobooks as a substitute for going to a play. I listen as a substitute for reading, with the majority of the character voices in my head. It's too confusing Mr. DeMeritt's way if a voice just doesn't suit a well-known character.
