The Dead Will Tell by Linda Castillo (Kate Burkholder #6)
Narrated by Kathleen McInerney
Macmillan Audio
Nominated for an Audie in the Mystery Category
Kathleen McInerney’s narration was really good she used a
nice slight accent when she was voicing the Amish people and her male voices were
fine and her narration of Kate was very well done.
I have had my eye on this series for a while and now thanks
to the Armchair Audies I finally listened to one, and I will now go back and
listen to the beginning of this series.
I enjoyed this story it was interesting trying to figure out
if the victims were seeing a ghost or was it just their guilt over what
happened years ago. In this Amish community Kate Burkholder former Amish now
Chief of Police has to go into the community she left behind and dredge up
memories of a heinous crime where a father and 4 children are killed and the
mother is taken and never seen again, one child survived and has stayed in the
community although he deals with so much guilt over leaving his siblings to try
to catch the people taking his mother he can’t catch them and when he gets back
to the house it is completely engulfed in flames. But that was 35 years ago and
today there are what at first look like suicides but Kate sees there is more
going on here than meets the eye and it seems to have something to do with this
long ago unsolved crime.
This book kept me guessing and the reveal surprised me it
was definitely not who I thought it was. I liked the character of Kate but was
a bit confused when it came to her relationship with Tomesetti but I think if I
go back and listen to the previous books it will make more sense to me. That
was the only part of the book where I felt like I was missing something although
I still enjoyed the main story.
As I said I will go back and listen to previous books in
this series so that tells you I liked it.
