Oh I loved this book. It reminded me of Kinsey Millhone series by Sue Grafton. Angelina is a character you like from the very start. There is a little romance in this book but it’s a good clean read. Kieren Calland Metts does a wonderful job of narrating this audio book. She really brings the story to life.
This book is a solid mystery with strong ties to historical events. I was totally engrossed in the storyline as Angelina began to unravel the mysteries surrounding not only the deaths of her clients parents, but also the questionable inheritance her client was left. There were no cliffhangers in terms of the resolution of the case.
I do like the overarching storyline that deals with the relationships between the characters. I look forward to seeing where this goes.
I enjoyed the solid performance by Kieran Calland Metts!
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.
Angelina Bonaparte is going to face another difficult and dangerous case when she mets Adriana Johnson, a recent orphan with some money problems. Angelina will face some evil things related with Yugoslavia’s war during the 1990. She will meet some interesting people and she will work with Ted Wukoski, while they work in their relationship. Good audiobook. I received a free copy of this audiobook and am leaving this review voluntarily.
(4.5) I really enjoyed book 2. I am more comfortable with the narrator. I can just see Angie and you can bet I would hire her. These books bring you in, you were on Angies shoulder, meeting her family, friends partaking in her life. She is smart, snarky, intelligent, compassionate with no room for fools. I love the twisted mind of Nanci there is no straight line, we are taken down a twisted path with subplots and surprises all woven together in this fascinating book. An atrocious time history is brought to light and handled with class woven in the pages of this mystery. What about Wukowski, the detective that she is getting to know better?? I am right there with her waffling. I am really glad I gave the narrator a second chance. I can just here Angie pronouncing her name 🙂 Highly recommend this twisted tale.
enjoyed the twists and turns.
loved it!!!!!
Fantastic read. I recommended it to a friend and she is reading and enjoying it now.
I enjoyed this story. The characters were approachable and likeable. Although this is part of a series, this installment was a stand-alone story with a beginning and an end.
An outstanding book in every way.
An ostensibly straightforward assignment — to find out how the murdered parents of her client, Adriana, lived like paupers but had an estate of hundreds of million dollars, is anything but. As matter progress, other people died, and everyone associated with Angelina had a trained bodyguard protecting him/her. Angelina, with help from friends, identifies the killer, a Bosnian was criminal, and leads to his arrest with an unusual pursuit. A second and equally entertaining story is the interaction and character growth of the people on the good side.
This was a great read. Suspense was the biggest ingredient in this novel. The trail of press following, or trying to follow the cast was amusing. The diverse cast of characters adds to the story line and relationships individuals have with each other just get deeper and more honest. Love, suspense, humor and crime make for an outstanding read. Having read this and the first book in the series I am hooked and off to consume the next book.Once again Kieren Calland Metts did it again with the narration of this novel.
Interesting background for the citizens of country during the Bosnian War and the things people do to take advantage during and after.
Weak ending.
Cash Kills, my second read from author Nanci Rathbun. I originally got this book back in December of 2018 & one thing lead to another and I never got around to reading it until now. Now I’ve been given an Audible copy of this book & am voluntarily reviewing it and since I own both the Audible & Kindle editions I was able to follow along while being read to. Written in first person, Kieren Calland Metts’s talented narration adds to the well-written book’s enjoyment. Extremely well written, the characters, even the minor ones, are well developed with an attention-grabbing storyline. I’m a character reader, I get into the characters. Who and what they are. Why they do the things they do. The things that make the reader get invested into the characters and thereby the story. I’ll be reading more from this author! Better yet this is the first book in a multi-book series that I look forward to reading. Next up is Honor Kills. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 – July 24, 2018).
