I’ve just finished Bully Boy Blue by John Nicol, narrated by Jake Urry for the second time and it’s even more chilling than the first time! The characters are so well drawn that I was really immersed in the story feeling the same frustration, anger, and exasperation as before, even tho I knew what was going to happen. John Nicol is a master writer of dark and chilling stories and Jake Urry is the perfect narrator for them. That man could make the tv times sound threatening! Although this is a short story, it’s one you won’t forget in a hurry!

Second reading is even more chilling!

WOW!! This short book packs a HUGE punch. The author manages to take you through a gamut of emotions. I've listened to it twice already. The words, the story, the narration, If you only listen to one audio book - make it this one!

One word review - chilling.

Not a pretty book. We get an up close and personal view of domestic abuse and it's horrifying.

Kathy is dominated physically and emotionally by husband Mike, who also happens to be a police officer. Nicholl doesn't really pull any punches regarding the portrayal of their relationship. One thing that hasn't been broken is her spirit and she makes a plan.

It's an uncomfortable listen, but also an important reminder of the plight of many spouses and offspring, usually occurring out of sight. Here we have some hope at the end of the story and thank goodness for that.

Excellent tale, superb narration (Jake Urry), plenty of food for thought. I might have to try something else by this author.
