THE DETAILS✎
❐ SLOW-BURN MYSTERY❐ SOME THRILLS & SUSPENSE❐ DOMESTIC ABUSE❐ IDENTITY THEFT❐ LENGTH OF AUDIO ➯ 11 HOURS, 31 MINUTES❐ I LISTENED ON LIBBY THROUGH MY LIBRARY
A newly minted private investigator, Grayson Sykes is searching for a missing person...the more she learns about this missing woman...the deeper the mystery goes...and goes...and goes. This was a little slow going for my tastes...I feel like it took forever to get the mystery going and eventually it had two mysteries going on. I'll admit sometimes I couldn't keep each story separated...they may have even become intertwined with each other.
The narrative was kept fresh by dealing with themes of domestic abuse, identity theft, and a stolen dog named Kenny G (I have no idea what happened to the dog, either...probably mind-wandering during that section). By the end, the payout was rewarding enough and the Audio is performed swimmingly by Je Nie Fleming...she was the perfect voice for Grayson Sikes character.
