It's too perfect for words. Marion's too busy wrapping up the loose ends of her latest book for the inconvenience of a real crime. But what's surfacing in the shadows of the house next door is not quite as predictable as fiction: accusations of racketeering, kidnapping and blackmail; a slain stripper; a grieving but slippery husband; a wily French artist; a panicky movie star; and a cop who's working Marion's last nerve. If the kids are game, Marion decides she is too-in between chapters, at least. Besides, this whole dangerous bloody mess could turn out to be a source of inspiration!

The ability to change playback speed and audio volume on ListenBook gives me full control over my listening experience. Tone adjustment is an innovative touch that adds a personal connection to the audiobook narration. It's like having a custom reading experience. An average audiobook experience. Nothing was wrong with it—the narration was fine, and the story was okay—but nothing particularly stood out. It served its purpose as entertainment during my commute. Not bad, but not amazing either. The narrator’s voice was pleasant, though some parts felt a bit rushed. The story had its moments, but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it over similar titles in the genre.
