About this listen

Tell me if you've heard this one before.

Two bodies walk out of a morgue....

Harper Matthews is a Death Dealer. Not that she knows it. Her magic is dud; medicated out of her. At least she hopes so.

In her world, she's a 25-year-old-girl whose life is already a mess. Between the boss she can't stand, the jerk she's dating, and the foulmouthed slob who lives below her, she's about ready to hide and never come out.

The thing is, she might just need to do that. When the body she is working on in the morgue gets up and walks out the door, Harper's pretty sure she didn't cause it.

Bounty hunter Ethan Stone knows what Harper is, and he's trying to help her. He has seen what is coming; who is looking for her. He knows, firsthand, what happens when a Magical denies what they are. If only she'd listen.

If you like Jim Butcher, Shayne Silvers, Michael Anderle, Ilona Andrews, Patricia Briggs, K.F. Breene, or Faith Hunter, you'll love the Death Dealers series.

Spoiled by the narrator who couldn’t say certain words correctly especially “bag” It was also supposed to be set in the UK and yet the narrator used American terms I had to give up after 2 hours of struggling to listen.

Good story

The story is set somewhere between Skegness ( mentioned) and America. The health service is ours but the funeral home attached to the hospital mortuary is a strange anomaly. The language used is American, the terms and descriptions etc. but the housing and streets are UK. It’s weird, disconcerting and distracting. It’s like a book written by an American who’s taken a brief holiday in Britain and erroneously thinks they know the country. The money and beer is ours but gin and mixers are served in highball glasses?
If you can Wade through that there are some well written parts but just as the story starts to flow they hit another nasty bump in the road. Plot points hinge on ridiculous ideas like the eviction with a weeks notice. Surely not legal in Britain but who knows in the US. A rather odd interview. A Starbucks with a large table. Etc.
Don’t get me started on the narration. It’s good to give struggling narrators a break but maybe they are struggling for a reason. It’s bad , American, stilted and mispronunciation rules. If I could return it I would.
