There was no nodding off to this one, I was too engaged in the story and WHO DONE ITš The novel is told from two points of view. This clever, twisty novella from Samantha Downing was just the ticket. I love listening to audiobooks, however some are just so long that it takes me forever to get through them. This is an Audible Original, and available now through Amazon. Iām looking forward to trying more audiobooks, even though I did have to increase the speed (Fast reader = Semi-fast listener). Their reading kept me engaged, and I loved the inflections they used to differentiate the characters. I really enjoyed the narrators, Melanie Nichols-King and Lindsey Dorcus. All I can say is that itās expertly handled (as per usual when itās written by Samantha Downing), and while I donāt condone murder.I appreciate the lesson that was conveyed here. I didnāt guess the culprit OR the motive. I had a fun time trying to figure everything out. This is a fun and clever mystery with humor sprinkled throughout. Told from the perspectives of Shelby and Detective Carla Grady (who is interviewing Shelby at the scene of the crime), it soon becomes apparent that there may be more to Todd than meets the eye.and plenty of motives for the murder. On this unfortunate day, she has to use the bathroom.and finds Toddās dead body inside the loo, on the floor. Shelby usually brings Pluto inside and leaves immediately. His owner, Todd Burke, is always at work. Shelby is a dog walker, and has just brought Pluto, a husky, back to his home. Told from the perspectives of Iāve been meaning to try audiobooks for awhile, and finally decided to give in.thinking what better way to test the waters than with a novella.and written by an author I love.
Iāve been meaning to try audiobooks for awhile, and finally decided to give in.thinking what better way to test the waters than with a novella.and written by an author I love. But when the denouement played out, it put an oh-heck-yes smile on my face. Thereās a very limited list of suspects, and I still didnāt guess correctly. A detective then arrives on the scene to suss out the killer. A dog walker brings a husky (all-time best doggos in the world - change my mind!) back from the dog park and finds its āownerā dead in the bathroom. What I loved most about Sleeping Dogs Lie is how the compact length of the novella cut all the fat and allowed the author to deliver one taut plot. I mean, if Iām at a buffet Iām going to eat, mkay? The āAudible Plusā catalog comes with many short exclusives like this, and based on this one Iām going to try to cram in a few more before my time is up.
