A side plot involving an elderly woman was somewhat creative and raised my rating from a 2 to a 3. ( ) This is a good story as a stand-alone. However, to call it a "Quincy & Rainey" story is a bit of a stretch. Theres very little Quincy and no Rainey in this one. Apparently the author was trying to expand the number of books in the series, but in this case she failed. Still gave it 3 stars for exciting plot. A young mother, on the run, shows up at the home of a mercenary, who is on his annual multi-day bender, trying to forget the senseless car accident that killed his wife and son. She will not leave until he agrees to train her to deal with her psychopathic husband, who has escaped from prison and will stop at nothing until she is dead. Tight and suspenseful, with painful family secrets. Worth reading. This was awful. Plastic and inconsistent characters, disjointed plot, and the most AWFUL audio narration. That audio narration was simply painful and made a poorly written story even worse. The narrators ridiculous attempt to speak with some kind of accent, I really hope it wasn't Boston, was torturous to listen to. I wanted to give this book a chance because I really like this authors other books but it seems like this one had all of the flaws of her other books with NONE of the positives. I can't think of one good thing to say about it except that it's over and I know NEVER to listen to another book read by Jennifer Wydra. Awful. no reviews | add a review
