Excellent story & glimpse into a Jewish household.

What did you love best about Sanctuary?

My first Faye Kellerman book & I bought it on a $5 sale solely on the recommendations of other readers. I'm glad I did. It was a well structured, clean, and educational plot. The Deckers lead me through the twists & turns of a police detective story on two continents.

What did you like best about this story?

The glimpse of the Jewish household and viewpoints of the characters leading to the resolution of the mystery.

What about Mitchell Greenberg’s performance did you like?

The voices of the different characters were well done and the story was well served by the narrator. I believed the characters.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I wanted to continue listening. Yes,yes,yes.

THREE VENUES ADD LUSTRE TO OUR DETECTIVES

Mitch Greenberg has become a true favorite of this afficianado. Many readers/actors have entertained, and Mr Greenberg hovers about very pinnacle. He is a master of all aspects of his craft.
After a couple of not-so-well-enjoyed stories, Dr Kellerman re-acquaints us with her excellence.
One recommendation: Peter, Rina, and Marge need not be perfect, or prescient, in solving every single aspect of the case.

Good story meh narrator

I really wanted to love this but I can't get past a like. It wasn't horrible and I finished it, but the female voices of the narrator were cringe. Otherwise mostly okay.

Narration👍 Plot👍

Decker and Lazarus are superb in Sanctuary. The Israeli accents are wonderful. Faye Kellerman knows how to tell a story!

Right turns wrong turns

The incredibly powerful ending that completed the intricate web of a fascinating trade and the powers that rule it—the diamond trade
