Nice little short story with an unexpected conclusion

This was a sweet little short story, the plot of which is adequately summed up in the story blurb. It's so short there's not a lot of characterization work, but solving the mystery is an up-and-down journey. Also, Carolin did an excellent job narrating!

A decent short mystery with an enjoyable ending I did not expect. I'm appreciative of it as I wasn't as drawn into the story or characters as I usually am, probably because the story's length didn't really allow for it.

A short, pleasant story. A mystery is solved. I wish the story had gone on longer. As a critic of Carolin's earlier readings I am pleased to hear her much improved narration. Great job.

Nice short story read by Carolin who was perfect for story. Sweetheart you mispronounced a few words but since English is not your native language you are excused. When I hear the way you mispronounce some words it makes me smile. Anyone with a bit of intelligence can make out what the word is. You bring a bit of Oslo closer to us in USA. Thanking you I am Liz.
Good Short Story

Really enjoy all of AKG books, I found this great app by chance and she was the first author I have listened too and I cant stop until Im done with all her books. I was not very thrilled about the reader at first but now she is one of my favorites. Thank you Carolin for your time.
