There is a serial killer loose. This murderer is a sin-eater. The victims always die for a sin. I found this book thrilling reading about a journalist and a minister race against the clock. They realize a new victim could turn up at any time.

Many thanks to Net Galley and CamCat Books for an audiobook to read and review.

Entertaining mystery/crime audiobook. The narrators were great in bringing the story to life. I had no idea who was behind the murders until the end - great twists.

This was an ok story, definitely has great potential, but was too repetitive, convoluted and at the end, fairly predictable. How much do we need to know about a vicar/reverend or whatever she is, who doesn’t believe in God anymore and is a kleptomaniac?

I do think that a good edit would hugely improve this as the plot was good. The female narrator was excellent, the male narrator was a bit too robotic.

3 ⭐️ Thanks to Netgalley, the author and the publisher for an ARC in return for an honest review.

This tense and psychological thriller really keeps you on your toes with a harrowing tale of justice in all its forms, Take a moment to comprehend the intensity and the disturbing mind that could run a mock. Great read

This is my first Michael Bradley novel and it will not be my last. In None Without Sin, we realize that everyone has something to hide. Sinners will stop at nothing to keep their secrets secret. Leaving the reader to wonder if this is enough to drive them to commit multiple murders or if something more sinister is at play?

I found the characters very realistic. I liked the way Michael Bradley knor the elements of this story together, well the plot twist I was on the edge of my seat the whole time and didn't want to put this book down. I look forward to reading more from this author.

I am very grateful to Natgalley for the fantastic opportunity to read this book.
#nonewithoutsin, #Michael Bradley, #Netgalley,

As assumed with the title there is a religious vein running through this murder mystery. Why is there a loaf of bread at each murder site? Look up “ sin eaters” or read this serial thriller that explains it as the story grows.
   An Episcopalian minister and a journalist appear at the horrific murder scene of a real estate mogul by chance. Their relationship as detectives and friends is forged from that first murder scene as they share information and seem to also arrive at the subsequent murder scenes.
   In every mystery there is always finger pointing but just when the reader was sure of a source, the finger pointed in another direction. Have to love a story that keeps you guessing.
   All the characters have their flaws, eventually flayed out for all to see, and kept the listener in suspense till the end.

First time reading this author and I'm hooked. This was interesting with the sin-eating ritual storyline. Good pacing and everything came together well. Thanks to Netgalley for the opportunity to listen to this audiobook

With thanks to the author, publishers CamCat Books, and NetGalley for providing me with an advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

This was a quite unusual but very entertaining murder mystery from the pen of author Michael Bradley, where the amateur sleuths are a pastor and a journalist. I really enjoyed the historic religious “sin eater” aspect of the murderer’s calling card, and how that was woven into the plot. All of the characters were very well developed, warts and all, particularly the lead protagonists Candice and Brian, which I felt helped me to relate to them and get engaged in the story as a reader/listener.

I listened to the audiobook version, and the narrators Lisa Larsen and Rob Shapiro were both excellent, portraying the range of characters really well.

This story presents a captivating premise with well-crafted characters, yet the overall story failed to fully engage me. While the concept had great potential, and the characters were undoubtedly well-developed, the narrative somehow lacked the gripping impact I had hoped for.

Let’s start with a bang! There is a dead body and sitting on the murder victim is a loaf of Artisan brown bread sliced down the middle. It is soaking up blood and plasma. .
As the story unfolds, we learn this is a Victorian-era religious ritual called sin-eating.

Brian Walter, is a newspaper journalist, who now runs a small town newspaper and Reverend Candice Miller is an Episcopalian minister. The unlikely pair have joined together to try and solve what is going on in their quiet little town of Newark, Delaware.

More killings come to surface with bread left on the bodies. It begins to appear that those being killed have secrets that they thought no one knew. Could the killer be making them pay for their secrets and if so, how does the killer know about these secrets?

This was a really good mystery and well presented as an audio book.

The book was good. The beginning felt a bit slow at first, and it took me a while to get into the story properly (it could be the fact I used audiobook), The Person responsible for the crimes was on my list of suspects, although the uncovering of how it all started and why, was still interesting. Overall, I think the book was good, and I will definitely try to read the paper copy, to better experience the whole story.

Thank you NetGalley, the author and CamCat Books for this audiobook in exchange for my honest review.

I enjoyed this book and it's my first of Michael Bradley's, it always nice to know there are books in an authors back catalogue to look at when you enjoy a book.

I felt the narrators were both good and I like the perspectives of the 2 main characters, particularly Brian's from his perspective as a journalist. Would definitely recommend as a well paced crime thriller.

A priest and journalist are drawn together to solve this engaging murder mystery. Characters are well drawn with good plotting. The author keeps you guessing till the end. Rob Shapiro and Lisa Larson do a good job narrating this novel.
I received this audiobook from CamCat and Netgalley for a review.

None Without Sin is a unique twist on a murder mystery. It brings sin eating to the table. We follow a local pastor and a reporter as multiple murders stack up with loaves of bread left on the victims.

I honestly didn't know who was responsible, but I had my suspicions, only to find out that it was someone I had never expected.

Thank you for the audio ARC of None Without Sin.

Thank you NetGalley, the author and CamCat Books for this audiobook in exchange for my honest review.

I went into this completely blind and had no high expectations. The religious aspect was very interesting to me along with the characters having dark secrets and being set in a smaller town. The character development was pretty decent, but I wish I could have learned a bit more about some of the other characters’ backgrounds. The plot could have been so much twistier and sinister, but fell a bit flat for me.

Overall I think this would be a good recommendation for someone just getting into mysteries with a small thriller feel. The narrators were pretty good on this one too! I will definitely check out more Michael Bradley.

I was able to get an ARC of the audiobook. I entered with no expectations and I’m glad, because although the book was written well, there is just nothing particularly spectacular.

None Without Sin reads like a recycled Kathy Reichs novel. I expected Temperance to show up at any moment to examine bones and crack the case.

The theme of Christians/ Catholics actually having dark secrets and doing unspeakable things to each other is no longer a theme people find shocking as we watch this play out in real life daily.

If you are a fan of paperback mysteries from the drug store, then you will definitely enjoy this book. It wasn’t really for me.

I received None Without Sin from netgalley as an ARC. The narrator and story was amazing! Never trust the silent one.

The steps that the wife went through to set up her husband for the murders of peoples sins. Did the husband create the killer by telling her she was nothing but a stupid women? The entire time I thought that it was the husband for his knowledge about sin eaters and having the connection to the therapist.

I will be listening to more from this author.

First, I would like to say thank you to the publisher and author for allowing me to read this book. I really appreciate it. This was my first ever audiobook and it did not disappoint. It was gripping right from the start and i loved the twists and turns. My only pointer would be that there are 2 main voices that read the audiobook. One Male and one Female however they both read over both parts. I feel it would be better to have them say their own lines and that way we can get the feel of a genuine conversation and get even more immersed into the book. A fast paced, exciting and crime filled book. Would recommend to others

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.

This was an interesting mystery and I liked how religion was used in the motive for murder with the sin eater playing as murderer. There was a lot going on in the book, but overall it was a decent mystery.

Published: 08/02/22
Narrated by Rob Shapiro, Lisa Larsen

Thank you NetGalley and CamCat Books, Independent Book Publishers Association (IBPA), Members' Audiobooks for accepting my request to read and review None Without Sin.

Overall, I liked the story. There was a lot going on. I looked and was surprised this wasn't a debut novel. However there are some interesting storylines. I liked that the Minister was flawed but not death row bad. I don't want to spoil. I'm surprised more people aren't reading this. Appreciated the use of a psychologist in a favorable light. There are smart elements to the book. The title was spoton in several ways.

The story gets busy and convoluted. The ending was okay, I didn't hate it.

Larsen did an amazing job, while Shapiro fell flat for me.

Maybe one more strong edit with a rewrite (everybody is a critic) and I absolutely would have taken out the profanity. This is a 2.5 star read, I'm rounding up for Larsen's performance.
