The Coldest Case

I listened to the audible version of this and I really didn't like all the sound effects they used. It's like they were trying to make it like a movie or something with lots of overlapping sounds in stereo. I don't need to hear all the footsteps, doors opening, and music etc. It was just too distracting from the story and really annoying. I'd rather listen to the story like normal. The voices were all good but the story was short, not quite 4 hours. I saw that it was a prequal to a series with 3 books. The story reminded me of Blue Bloods and I think I would like the series but I definitely will just read the books.

this felt like an AI writer compiled all cop story cliches and wrote a book. no real person or relatively experienced writer could come up with this. my 4 y/o friends' crayon sketch animals have more layers than the characters in this book. this is just James Patterson's cash grab and I don't feel good about it. if it wasn't a free audible book I would have never consumed it. very very disappointing, ugh.
