This one keeps you listening and thrilled by the visions.
I am not one of those people who is completely disbelieving of supernatural or extra-sensory powers in stories. But, this whole concept with the main character who can see the last 18 seconds of thoughts from any dead person, is a whole lot of farfetched. Once you choke that idea down, the story itself is not bad - decently written and OK plot, although I wasn't crazy about the characters who get killed off in the end (don't worry, I won't spoil it). Short story, I was mildly entertained, but not enough to look at reading any more stories in this series.
I wish this was an unabridged version. I liked it from beginning to end. Hope there is another book about Sherry Moore.
with a really touching LAST paragraph! Since this was the abridged version, the pace was quick, the story gripping, the ending probably predictable except the VERY end. Listen to this one and you will enjoy it.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book!!! It is very intriguing.
This was a riveting, well-written and well-read book. The author uses the declarative sentence style effectively. The characters were real and the plot well crafted.
I enjoyed this book immensely. Would like to have seen it unabridged. The last CD rapped everything up too quickly. Will read the book to fill in the gaps.
Quick and entertaining. I'll look for this author again.
