À propos de cet audio

From former NPR correspondent Mary Louise Kelly comes a heart-pounding story about fear, family secrets, and one woman's hunt for answers about the murder of her parents.

Two words: the bullet. That's all it takes to shatter her life.

Caroline Cashion is beautiful, intelligent, a professor of French literature. But in a split second, everything she's known is proved to be a lie.

A single bullet, gracefully tapered at one end, is found lodged at the base of her skull. Caroline is stunned. It makes no sense: She has never been shot. She has no entry wound, no scar. Then, over the course of one awful evening, she learns the truth: she was adopted when she was three years old, after her real parents were murdered. Caroline was there the night they were attacked. She was wounded too, a gunshot to the neck. Surgeons had stitched up the traumatized little girl with the bullet still there, nestled deep among vital nerves and blood vessels.

That was thirty-four years ago.

Now Caroline has to find the truth of her past. Why were her parents killed? Why is she still alive? She returns to her hometown, where she meets a cop who lets slip that the bullet in her neck is the same bullet that killed her mother - full-metal jacket, .38 Special. It hit Caroline's mother and kept going, hurtling through the mother's chest and into the child hiding behind her.

Caroline is horrified - and in danger. When a gun is fired, it leaves markings on the bullet, tiny grooves almost as unique as a fingerprint. The bullet in her neck could finger a murderer. Can Caroline unravel the clues to her past before the killer tracks her down?

SPOILERS*** Exceptional audiobook.

I enjoyed this audio book, but the author needs to works on the biases they may have against ethnic people.

Call me sensitive, but I despised the manner in which the author described the ethnic community in France. “It stinks of meat”. I assume the author attempted to make up for that ludicrous statement by describing the black woman who greeted the protagonist as “ a beautiful Black woman”. I also disliked how she played on the stereotype of suburban white women accusing inexistent black men for violent crimes. That’s a delicate topic that society needs to rid ASAP. I can go on for hours, but I digress.

The performance was remarkable, only that that narrator needs to work on her Caribbean/Jamaican accent. That was not well done. Other than that, it was an enjoyable narration.

Author needs to work on her biases against ethnic groups/people of color. I’m convinced the author is unaware of the hurtful stereotypes she holds.

In any event, the story was astounding and really well written. I enjoyed it thoroughly, despite the questionable remarks.

Fantastic twists and turns

Without let the reader know, this story has a few twists and turns that I never anticipated. Need to go to the very end. Highly recommended.

Such an excellent idea!

The Bullet, written by Mary Louise Kelly, and narrated so amazingly by Cassandra Campbell, is such an excellent idea. I thoroughly enjoyed the characters and why they were brought together. I highly recommend this novel, and can't wait to start another of her's!
