I’ll be honest, Bridge to Burn was a lot less thrilling then Rachel Amphlett’s previous books in the series. The story itself was built just like I’ve come to expect from this author. The writing was thorough and descriptive. Really, it was the plot that felt a smidge dull. I wanted more death and destruction and was a bit let done with the one and done... does that make me sick? The case wasn’t an easy one and I didn’t piece it all together until Kay Hunter was about to break it all down for us. So the mystery was really good and complex. I’m in no way saying this is bad, it’s quite the opposite, it was very good. I’m hoping to get more of these detective stories with Kay Hunter. I just want more death and destruction! Is that too much to ask for?!? Lol ok, as long as it fits the story. It wouldn’t have in this case.

The narrator is the same as the 6 other books, Alison Campbell. I love her accent. Now obviously this book is set in the UK and so the narrator has a British accent. I love it!! Seriously I can’t get enough of it and the way she says “schedule”. I know, I know, I’m a total odd ball. But it such a pleasant voice. I didn’t have a single issue with the narration. Nor was there any problem with the technical side of the narration. Perfection!
