At first, I thought Crime Scenes by Vespucci was sensational, American homicide stories for people in the UK, but only the first episode takes place in Disney’s planned community in Celebration, Florida. The settings of other episodes include an island in Wales, the Caribbean, and Australia. The episodes are the audiobook equivalent of TV shows like Unsolved Mysteries, featuring narrated dramatic reenactments. A very British-sounding narrator tells each homicide story interlaced with the voices of other actors reenacting the actual or plausible words of the story’s subjects. It’s cheesy and the pace is plodding in comparison to the massive amount of information in the previous audiobook I listened to We Own This City, but the stories were interesting enough.
