Roanoke Island Murders

by Joe C. Ellis

Narrated by: Robert Ferraro

Production by: Upper Ohio Valley Books

Unpredictable!

Roanoke Island Murderers was written by Joe c. Ellis and narrated by Robert Ferraro. After a long-lost journal written by Eleanor Dare, one of the original members of Roanoke Island's Lost Colony, is discovered in a precarious location. Detective Weston Wolf is drawn into this web of deception and murder by a beautiful woman who claims to be a descendant of the dairy's author. As the bodies pile up, Wolf must untangle this web to save his own neck. This detective story is a solid read. The author was able to make the conversations between characters seem natural while keeping the story moving. From the beginning to the end, the plot twists and action didn't stop. As soon as I thought I had this read figured out I was proven wrong. I really enjoyed how the main character gets caught up in the excitement then has inner turmoil about his actions after the dust settles. If you like detective books combined with being continually caught off guard pick up this one.

The narrator Robert Ferraro did an exceptional job, being a perfect match for the tone of this book. The fact that he is an award-winning performer is evident from the first chapter to the last. His only shortcoming for this story is during long conversations between characters. At that point, the characters start to sound too similar.

Editing, quality, and production were on par with most books I have listened to.  It was clear, with no issue with sound or quality.
