About this audiobook
Beautiful and brilliant, Kendra Donovan is a rising star at the FBI. Yet her path to professional success hits a speed bump during a disastrous raid where half her team is murdered, a mole in the FBI is uncovered and she herself is severely wounded. As soon as she recovers, she goes rogue and travels to England to assassinate the man responsible for the deaths of her teammates. While fleeing from an unexpected assassin herself, Kendra escapes into a stairwell that promises sanctuary but when she stumbles out again, she is in the same place-Aldrich Castle-but in a different time: 1815, to be exact. Mistaken for a lady's maid hired to help with weekend guests, Kendra is forced to quickly adapt to the time period until she can figure out how she got there; and, more importantly, how to get back home. However, after the body of a young girl is found on the extensive grounds of the county estate, she starts to feel there's some purpose to her bizarre circumstances. Stripped of her twenty-first century tools, Kendra must use her wits alone in order to unmask a cunning madman.

Please note, my gripe is primarily with the audio instead of the story/e-book. So far, the story is interesting. I definitely want to finish the story but cannot stand the audio. The reading for the main character really makes me cringe. Sometimes it's nice to listen to, other times it's so high and whiny that it detracts from the how the character is portrayed - as a smart and independent woman. Sure she can have character flaws, but when it sounds whiny and distressed [constantly] it takes away from the story. There are other parts of the audio that are so soft spoken it's hard to hear unless you are in a completely noise free environment.
