A review by muddypuddle
The Ghost Manuscript by Kris Frieswick

3.0

What an unrewarding ending. All that buildup and then...blah. Not enough resolution. Lots of improbabilities. The most disappointing for me was the reader - she read flawlessly, it wasn't that. Her voice iss what put me off, it was too old and mannish, not suited for the character. And of all the Bostonians depicted in the story, she only gave one a (BAD!!!) New England accent. The two men from Wales had not even the slightest Welsh accent. I've heard so many readers that can pull off accents,, whoever chose this reader didn't choose the right one, not even close. That can make or break storytelling, and it certainly didn't make it for me. So many thwarted possibilities,, what a bummer.
