About this listen

It's January, and the Star City Film Festival has taken the Utah ski resort town by storm. Movie stars are everywhere, carving fresh powder on the slopes and crossing the thresholds of Bygone Alley's charming boutique shops - including The Rescued Word, where Clare Henry and her grandfather restore old typewriters and beloved books. When cinema's hottest superhero, Matt Bane, enters their store to buy some personalized notecards, it's hard not to be starstruck.

But when Clare sees the police leading Matt out of The Fountain hotel in handcuffs only a few hours later, she can't believe her eyes. The affable actor is accused of killing his sister, but Clare's convinced he's wrong for that role. Now it's open call for suspects as Clare tries to reel in the killer before another victim fades to black....

This has, by all accounts, the potential to be a good audio book, were it not for the annoyance of the narrator's voice. For a start, the text is read at a far too fast a pace. Secondly, I just couldn't get past the tone of the voice, which seemed to be very unsettling. So high pitch gabbling is how this book degrades into in sections. Shame, because the other aspects (characters, story etc) seem good.

Narrator sounds like she's inhaling helium
