using Newtonsoft.Json.Linq;
using System.Linq;
using System.IO;
using System.Collections.Generic;

public List GetJsonValues(string filePath, string propertyName)
{
  List values = new List();
  string read = string.Empty;
  using (StreamReader r = new StreamReader(filePath))
  {
    var json = r.ReadToEnd();
    var jObj = JObject.Parse(json);
    foreach (var j in jObj.Properties())
    {
      if (j.Name.Equals(propertyName))
      {
        var value = jObj[j.Name] as JArray;
        return values = value.ToObject>();
      }
    }
    return values;
  }
