App Description

NO GOOD DEED by Lynn S. Hightower (unabridged) is presented by Blackstone Audio and comes with what is perhaps the best audiobook app available (see FEATURES, below).

“Powerful, crisply paced.” (Publishers Weekly)

The pretty fifteen-year-old had saddled up for an afternoon ride and never came back.
As a mother herself, Cincinnati detective Sonora Blair knew she was looking at a parent's worst nightmare. But nothing in Sonora's experience could prepare her for the chilling revelations that would emerge from this case.

Self-contained, this audiobook app is perfect for your commute, on a trip, or while relaxing. Based on a library-quality recording, this app was built especially for your iPhone and iPod Touch. No unreadable text, no endless scrolling on a tiny screen. The audio is of higher-than-normal quality, making for a great listening experience that will not tire your ears or grate on your nerves.

NOTICE: This app includes the exact same 5-star recording offered elsewhere at much higher prices. It was professionally recorded by Blackstone Audio’s Earphones® Award-winning narrator, Anna Fields. You are not buying yet another amateur or volunteer narration. No clicks, background noises, throat clearing, mispronunciations, tinny voices or monotones will be found here.

“Reader Anna Fields portrays the frazzled but brilliantly intuitive detective perfectly. We experience her weariness, exasperation, excitement, and sense of humor.” (AudioFile)

When a fifteen-year-old girl goes missing, all that’s left behind is a splintered fence, pickup truck tracks, a discarded riding boot, and a lot of blood. As a mother, detective Sonora Blair knows she is looking at a parent's worst nightmare. As a homicide cop, she tries not to think about what might be happening to the young girl right now—or what the police will find if they don't get to her in time. But nothing in Sonora's experience can prepare her for the chilling revelations that will emerge from this case, or for the truth about other missing children, a lover's betrayal, and another unthinkable crime.
