Publisher's summary
Someone’s trying to frame this ambitious theater performer for murder. Can she get back to her adoring public and escape the noose?
1885. Arabella Pryce is struggling with heartbreak. And with her recently deceased husband’s will demanding she leave her celebrity behind and refurbish her namesake hotel in Colorado, the distressed actress is forced to board a westbound train. But she’s barely arrived at the haunted, broken-down lodge when the town beauty shows up dead in one of the rooms… and Arabella is named the prime suspect.
Already feeling the sting of the community’s disapproval, she grits her teeth and works with a mischievous cryptic ghost to help prove her innocence. But with blood-stained evidence, handsome sheriffs, and libelous journalists turning her investigation into a dangerous drama, this determined thespian fears she’s missed her cue for survival.
Can she shine the spotlight on a killer before more than her reputation dies a horrible death?

Story
In The Worst of You, just-wed architects Timo and Nia flee a murder scene, setting in motion a chain reaction of lies and betrayals that threaten to unravel everything they have built together. Twisted and propulsive, this thriller is told from the alternating perspectives of the couple and those close to them on Williwaw Island, each with their own motive to use the outcome of the murder case to their advantage. When a huge storm sweeps up the coast, trapping everyone on tiny Williwaw Island, it’s a race against time—and the elements — to stop the murderer from striking again.

It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

Virtual voice
I enjoyed the storyline. However, I almost gve up after chapter one. I hate the virtual voice narration!
There is no distinction between characters. Ther is no emotion from the voice. Also, I noticed many mispronounced words such as “bugler” for burglar; “plums” for plumes”. Unfortunately there many more. Granted, these are examples from another book narrated by virtual voice. Please. go back to humans. Narration is key to njoying an audio book.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
