Resumen del Editor

Incomparable #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts delivers a tale of gut-level fear, human triumph, and the bonds that carry us through our darkest times…

Reena Hale’s destiny was shaped in the destructive - yet fascinatingly beautiful - fire that leveled her family’s pizzeria when she was young. Now an arson investigator, she finds her strength and wits constantly tested, although sometimes the job seems like a snap compared to her love life. But she can’t always blame the men. After all, a soot-caked woman barking orders and smelling of smoke isn’t the biggest turn-on in the world. Then she meets Bo Goodnight, who seems different. He’s been trying to find Reena for years, and now that she’s close enough to touch, he has no intention of letting go.

Nor does the man who has begun to haunt Reena’s life - with taunting phone calls and a string of horrifying crimes. And as Reena tries desperately to trace the origins - of the calls, the fires, the hatred aimed in her direction - she will step into the worst inferno she has ever faced...

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Romantic suspense queen Roberts lights up Baltimore's Little Italy with this appealing story of love, family, food and arson." ( Publishers Weekly)
"Bean's versatile vocal range skillfully portrays male and female parts without hesitation." ( AudioFile)

Graphic

I'm not sure this novel would have had such power without being so graphic in the abuse and fire deaths, but it was a very powerful story. Lots of people to love and cry over in this one. And the narration was good too.

Great Book!!!

Loved this book! Story was very well performed and kept my interest from the forst word. Highly recommend!!

A Very Good Story

I did enjoy this book. The story was good and I really cared about all the characters because they were fleshed out very well. I'm glad I read through some of the other reviews about a certain scene. I could tell it was coming and so was able to fast forward for about a minute and not hear it which didn't take anything away from the story. I knew what had happened I didn't need the details. The narration was very good. I could always tell who was talking and her voice has a nice resonance so it was really easy to listen to. Overall I can recommend this book just be aware there is a part of the book that some people have found unsettling.

Great story!

This story keeps you riveted from start to finish. Being from Baltimore you get the feel of the neighborhood, the sites, sounds and just everyday life. Highly recommended!❤️

so so

I have read and listened to MANY Nora Roberts books. Becoming too formulaic and predictable.

Review of Blue Smoke

One of Nora’s best. Her understanding of fire and its movement shows considerable research on her part. All of the interactions between the characters is amazing, The narrator’s wide vocal range and delivery is unmatched. Loved the storyline. I want Pizza!

Good Read

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

Sure. It's a pretty good book. It happens over a long period of time which gives the story depth. There were some extremely violent parts of the book that made me a bit uncomfortable when listening, though.
