I am not only impressed by the narration, but also the originality, writing and consistency throughout. It’s a good yarn with an intriguing twist at the end. Looking forward to the next book in the series!

Well written and lovingly narrated, this story captures the sometimes bittersweet feeling of the holiday season

Lengthy, but detailed and interesting account of Scientology from before the beginning right up to almost the present day. It’s really mind boggling, and says a lot about what a desperate person will overlook in order to think they’ve made a discovery that no one else they know has made. It’s equally sad, frustrating, and infuriating.

I had to go back to the beginning and re-listen to the first four or five chapters just to get the ‘who did what’ stuff straight . . . and it’s definitely strange . . . but the author has definitely done their research regarding myths, Central American history and religion, new age beliefs, etc. I was sure that the ending would be ambiguous and unsatisfying - but am happy to report that I was wrong. This story has a sloooooooow start, but definitely moves along toward an “I didn’t see that coming!” ending.

All great (creepy, scary, etc., etc.) short stories - every last one! Normally with a short story collection I read one or two as time allows between novels, but this started off so enjoyably that I devoured it - start to finish - in a single day. Highly recommended!

When I finished Orlando People and rushed back to buy Dade County Death Cruise I saw a review that said it wasn't as good as the first book. I was a little disappointed, but bought it anyway and started it immediately. What book did that other reviewer read?!? This was different - yes - but why would you want to read the same book over and over again? I love how the characters are growing and changing, while the problems of the world continue on. If you enjoyed Orlando People, I think you'll enjoy this book. If you haven't read OP, I would recommend reading that one first - they're both just So Much Fun!

I bought this when it was first released, then it languished in my library until someone (from California) in an online book club gave it a 5-star recommendation. So, I downloaded it and gave it a try. I Loved It! It's clever, funny, entertaining, and a bunch of other words that mean I really enjoyed it. I hope there will be lots and lots more about Gretch Wolgast in the future. Highly recommended, and if you live anywhere near central Florida you HAVE to read it.

Great stories - eerie and disquieting and always with that ‘twist’ that takes you to an unexpected place. The narration is excellent. I really enjoyed!

Tim Dorsey and Oliver Wyman are the perfect team, second only to Serge and Coleman! The only thing I can say about this Tim Dorsey book (that I haven’t said about earlier installments in the series - maybe) is: Buy it, Read it, I know you’ll enjoy it!

It’s still Agatha for the most part and James, Charles, the Cotswolds, and all of the other wonderful characters that I have grown to love. The story seemed to take a while to get going, but I ended by being as engrossed as always!
