Cursed

By: Carol Higgins Clark

Narrated by: Carol Higgins Clark

PI Regan Reilly moved from Los Angeles to New York City when she married Jack “no relation” Reilly, head of the NYPD Major Case Squad. To help a friend, Regan takes on a case that takes her back to her old stomping grounds. . . .

On a snowy day in New York City, PI Regan Reilly gets an urgent call from her former neighbor, Abigail Feeney. A Hollywood hairdresser, Abigail believes her life has been cursed since the day she was born— Friday the 13th.

Always unlucky in love, Abigail now needs Regan’s help in tracking down an ex-boyfriend who was just spotted in downtown Los Angeles—a “nogood bum” who borrowed $100,000 from her three months ago, then promptly disappeared. Abigail desperately needs to get that money back, money given to her by her grandmother who is heading to L.A. Grandma Feeney, no shrinking violet, has plans to buy an old friend’s condo for Abigail and will need that hard-earned money to make the deal.

With hubby Jack away, the weather in New York miserable, and the guiltprovoking memory that Abigail had brought her chicken soup when she was sick, Regan agrees to hop a plane. Before long, the hunt for Abigail’s ex takes some dangerous turns. . . . But when Abigail becomes a suspect in a murder investigation, Regan begins to wonder if the curse is real—and possibly contagious!

Not Up To Par

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Not sure. Not as good as the others in the series.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Well at least the one that I liked least was the bad guy.

Any additional comments?

Just too simple a story. It was easy to miss parts of the listen and still not feel like you missed anything. Not a grabber.

Good listen

Where does Cursed rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Cursed is a light hearted mystery book fun to listen to . Not very suspenseful or exciting though

Which character – as performed by Carol Higgins Clark – was your favorite?

Reagan riley

Save Your Credit

At long last the 6 hrs has come to an end. A cute story line weakened by the author/reader's childlike interpretations and voice modulation. Save your credit.

Whining!!!

I tired of all the whining characters in this story. Additionally, Ms. Higgins Clark's narrating of the book adds extra annoyance to the listener. The set is staged on the West Coast -- CA, not out on the East coast. The author should really spend the money on a professional for the narrating. The accent interfered with the enjoyment of the story. No offense. It's just not reasonable for west coast characters.

Couldn't agree more...too much whining

Maybe this story would have been better if I had read it, but listening to the author's narration certainly made it difficult to get through. The plot was okay, but the narration was poor at best. Not only were the women whiny, so were the men. Laurie
