Yeah, a series of shots of people who are really good looking but aren't doing anything except having the wind blow their hair doesn't tell us much about the book. The video is definitely somewhat at odds with the audio. Also, that kind of character display is getting really common--because AI is better at that than at action scenes. For instance, there's a trailer on YouTube that explores what a Justice League trailer would have looked like in an earlier era. It's mostly famous actors standing there in superhero costumes, displayed one at a time. (In other words, it's not like any real trailer for a superhero movie would have been, ever.)
The only remotely murdery thing in the visuals is the bloody handprint at the very end. It may be impractical to do a genuine action sequence, but maybe someone lurking in the shadows or something. Or people looking actually worrying instead of looking like they're posing for a photo shoot.
The voice sounds a lot less mechanical than it would have sounded even a few years ago, but honestly, it still needs a little more emotion, particularly at the point where the speaker reveals that his friends are being framed and that he knows whodunit.
The text itself is great. I'd buy the book based on the text, which does make the good sound like a great read. But if I didn't know you, the video would make me want to take a pass.
