Publisher Description
"In No Place to Die, Jaden Skye creates a set of characters that are very well developed and makes you cheer for our heroine every moment. The environment and the overall description of scenes are superb, making you feel the suspense in the air the whole time. Jaden Skye is a natural storyteller and the plot is intelligent and intense, developing at a nice pace. The audiobook was well edited and is an easy read...I can hardly wait to put my hands on the second volume of this series….I recommend this book to the permanent library of all readers that enjoy a well-written suspense/romance.” (Books and Movie Reviews (Roberto Mattos))
No Place to Die is #1 in a new romantic suspense series by #1 bestselling author Jaden Skye!
Olivia and Todd, madly in love, fly down to Key West when Todd offers to take her on a surprise trip for a magical weekend. Though they have only been dating five months, Olivia can’t help but wonder if Todd is preparing to pop the big question along the beautiful shores.
Yet Olivia’s paradise quickly turns to hell when Todd dies right before her eyes, in a tragic accident.
Or was it?
Olivia sinks further into the abyss as the police wonder if she did it, and finds herself backed into a corner, having to prove her innocence while finding out if Todd was truly murdered. Yet as she searches, entering the underbelly of Key West, forced to deal with unsavory locals and with Todd’s difficult and grieving family, she discovers things about Todd that she wished she never knew—discoveries that make her realize that she never really knew the man she loved at all.
Customer Reviews
*Crazy Ride*
3.5 stars
The premise of this book sounded great and it looked like Olivia after the loss of her late Fiancé was finally getting her happy ever after in the form of the too good to be true Todd. But no! Tragedy strikes and whilst she is being whisked away to Key West on a romantic break.
It kind of reminded me of shows like ‘Murder she wrote’ where the police seem like idiots while in this case Olivia discovers the culprit. A lot of farce and heartbreak but it looks like Olivia has not finished with Key West…. Or is it the other way round
No Place To Die
The narration is dire- emphasis and cadence jarred. Hard to listen to
Poor adaptation
I tried, I really did “he said passionately “ to give this book a fair chance as the plot is promising even if the characters are largely dubious.
However I’ve had to bin it “ he said with resignation heavy in his voice” as the spoken words are delivered verbatim and in such a monotonous manner.
