Enjoyable

I have read other reviews that complain about the narration. I have to say I think they are being very picky. Not great Scottish accent, but I could easily distinguish between eac of the character - something that I have struggled with in other audiobooks.

The story had enough twists and turns to make it interesting and I like the characters - on the whole. The main protaganist did make me want to shake her a coupe of times.
Yes parts of t was predictable, and yes there are some passages that could have been editted, but I enjoyed it.

Kept me guessing to the very end

The story kept me interested all the way through. A good developing plot. Look forward to reading another title.

The actors Scottish accent was deplorable

Otherwise it was fine. Wendy Webb isn't a bad writer but she has a tendency to introduce plotlines she never quite resolves. This is not done in a "let the reader decide themselves way" but in a lazy, she forgot how many plots she introduced kind of way.

Julia

Wonderful story although there were times I could have stopped listening because of Julia’s hysteria. Strong characters and beautifully written with occasional fear which made it very enjoyable

Library or Libary

Did this reader, and her producer, not understand that ‘library’ has two “r” - her pronunciation of ‘libary’ ruined the telling of this story - started to rankle once I became aware of the constant mispronunciation and I cringed every time she said the word. Gentle spooky story otherwise…

infuriatingly annoying

The main character, Julia, was very annoying in this story. I could only get up to Chp31 until I had enough. For a woman who supposedly doesn't believe in anything supernatural and who has had many supernatural experiences yet refuses to believe, She just seems incredibly dumb to me and god only knows whatbher logic is. also Drew, the scottish accent the narrator tried to voice, was terrible. This was by no means a scottish accent I have hears and being from UK, I have heard many a scottish accent. It would have been nice to have a scottish narrator for Drews character for authenticity. Also male and female narrators for the required parts respectively.

Fabulous read

Really enjoyed the last two books ( I’ve been reading them in the order of publication) lovely spooky story that was perhaps a little short as there could have been more to Jeramy and his call! But I love the way the endings are always leaving you with a question! Brilliant

Very Good

I like Wendy Webb and her books but the narrator makes it even more special. I find XE Sands has such a relaxing voice. This is my favourite so far.

Ok story but does drag on.

First thing as Scottish person this was difficult to listen to, no need at all for Drew to be Scottish. The accent was terrible and seemed to go between Irish and Russian rather than Scottish. The story was ok, wouldn’t say this was a horror story rather mild ghost story and that’s a push. The story does drag a lot, this is mainly down to the description of every little thing from drinking a glass of water to brushing her hair. I would say if you want to listen skip to last few chapters as you are not missing anything.
