Story
In the early morning hours of August 13, 2018, Shanann Watts was dropped off at her Frederick, Colorado, home by a colleague after returning from a business trip. It was the last time anyone would see her alive. By the next day, Shanann and her two young daughters, Bella and Celeste, had been reported missing, and her husband, Chris Watts, was appearing on the local news, pleading for his family's safe return. But Chris Watts already knew that he would never see his family again. Less than 24 hours after his desperate plea, Watts made a shocking confession to police.

True Crime detailing and narration at its best!
Reviewed: 07-31-24
This story is a fast-paced narrative about the Watts murders. Very few words are wasted on unnecessary information about Chris’s and Shanann’s childhoods and other superfluous details. Instead, the story flows with important details which assist the reader as they eventually converge at the apex of martial & familial pathology and the dogged trappings of an extramarital affair. I could not stop listening to this book. I wish I could start it again from the beginning, being naive to the unfortunate conclusion. The male narrator has a soothing, mellifluous British accent which lends well to the slow yet effective build up of the storyline. Highly recommended!

Story
Guy Montag is a fireman. In his world, where television rules and literature is on the brink of extinction, firemen start fires rather than put them out. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed book, along with the houses in which they are hidden. Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television "family."

Story
As a young man, Randall Woodfield had it all; he was a star athlete with good looks and an award-winning student. Working in the swinging West Coast bar scene, he had more than his share of women. But he wanted more than just sex. An appetite for unspeakable violent acts led him to cruise the I-5 highway through California to Washington, leaving a trail of victims along the way. As the list of the dead grew, the police mobilized to stop a twisted killer who had 44 known deaths to his name.

I’m sure the story is ok. But not really a typical Ann Rule book. I don’t recommend.

I’m sure it’s a fascinating story but the narration killed it for me. Too sing song.

Having conquered Wall Street, she was eager to build a family with her much younger husband, promising Ivy League graduate Rod Covlin.

In late December 2009, Shele made an appointment with her lawyer. She would never make it to that meeting.

What would happen if millions of people around the world suddenly disappeared one day? In this fascinating apocalyptic thriller, best-selling Christian inspirational authors LaHaye and Jenkins pool their considerable talents to answer that question. Narrator Richard Ferrone's unusually deep and hypnotic voice will keep you right in the middle of this not-unimaginable end of the world nightmare.

Wonderful, Biblical, en pointe book. The narrator is just awful. Horrible character voices and intonation is so bad.

Great story, horrible interviews
Reviewed: 12-06-21
I found this story to be very hard to pause. “Dick” is just pathological and I’m thankful she got away from him. To the author: if you’re going to interview people via phone or zoom, please secure a clear line which can amplify the voice of those interviewed. You must have known that no one could understand any part of some of these interviews.
