Search - The Double Bind (Audio CD) (Abridged)

My husband and I started this on a trip, and before the first cd even ended, we shut it off because we were bored. I then forgot to take a new book on my next trip and since this was still in the car, I played it. It sort of, maybe, could possibly, have been getting a bit more interesting, but, I then realized that the reader was doing a horrendous job on the heroine, making her breathy, wispy, fragile. From then on, the whole thing just annoyed me. Get on with some kind of story, I kept thinking. Too much repeating! Nothing really happening...nothing. Boy, this book could use a good abridgment, I kept thinking, and I usually don't care for abridgments. Then I checked the box. It IS an abridgment! This is my third Bohjalian book, and I was mesmerized by Midwives, thought Tran-sister was fair, but after this one, I won't be reading or listening to any more by him.

End with a twist you won't see coming...
