Awful abridged version- avoid
This is the worst abridged audio cd I've ever listened to. It has random harmonica music playing over parts of the story, chunks repeated, stuttering disjointed sentences. I cannot believe this has passed any publishing standard. Whoever edited this was totally incompetent. It's impossible to follow the story line; it jumps from one conversation/setting to something different. I shall be returning it. I hadn't realised it was an abridged version until I started listening and it became obvious parts were cut out mid sentence- very poor quality.

Not quite sure what happened here.....
I love the Grant County series of books by Karin Slaughter, it's a good job really because if I didn't I'd have turned this performance off very quickly. The reader was good, she read clearly but large sections of the book were missed out, full pages just skipped, which made the story sound disjointed and awkward. There are also bizarre pieces of music played randomly over the words, they do t add anything to the story so I can't think why anyone decided it would be a good idea. what a shame, for the reader and the writer!

very poor quality - excellent story
The story is as outstanding as ever but the quality of the recording (which skips multiple times) and the random, out of place, vocal drowning music with irritating harmonica when you are trying to listen to the story line, all serve to make this a dreadful listen. The narrator is the worst of all the Karin Slaughter books I have heard this far also. I would not recommend this purchase, hopefully an alternate version will be forthcoming to prevent Grant County fans having to listen to this mess of a recording.

Bad quality recording
The story is soo hard to follow because of the recording quality, as noted on other reviews, i should have read them before i got this, but it was the next in the series and i didnt want to miss snything. I could have skipped it without losing the flow of the whole saga, there was an annoying aspect to the performance also, there sre better narrators on Karin Slaughters other sudio books.
