À propos de cet audio

“The night they killed our neighbors, we never heard a thing.”

In a quiet suburban neighborhood, in a house only one door away, a family is brutally murdered for no apparent reason. And you think to yourself: It could have been us. And you start to wonder: What if we’re next?

Linwood Barclay, critically acclaimed author of No Time for Goodbye, brings terror closer than ever before in a thriller where murder strikes in the place we feel safest of all. Promise Falls isn’t the kind of community where a family is shot to death in their own home. But that is exactly what happened to the Langleys one sweltering summer night, and no one in this small upstate New York town is more shocked than their next-door neighbors, Jim and Ellen Cutter. They visited for the occasional barbecue and their son, Derek, was friends with the Langleys’ boy, Adam; but how well did they really know their neighbors?

That’s the question Jim Cutter is asking, and the answers he’s getting aren’t reassuring. Albert Langley was a successful, well-respected criminal lawyer, but was he so good at getting criminals off that he was the victim of revenge - a debt his innocent family also paid in blood? From the town’s criminally corrupt mayor to the tragic suicide of a talented student a decade before, Promise Falls has more than its share of secrets. And Jim Cutter, failed artist turned landscaper, need look no further than his own home and his wife Ellen’s past to know that things aren’t always what they seem. But not even Jim and Ellen are ready to know that their son was in the Langley house the night the family was murdered.

Suddenly the Cutters must face the unthinkable: that a murderer isn’t just stalking too close to home but is inside it already. For the Langleys weren’t the first to die and they won’t be the last.

Gripping

A slightly unlikely story but very entertaining with some interesting characters. Too gripping to put down. Enjoyed it.

Wow!

I listened to this 11 hour story in 2 stretches.
Linwood’s sense of humour is priceless and Christopher Lane’s narration is perfection.
The characters and the story line are more than entertaining.
Two thumbs up!!

This book is F@#$ing amazing!

I have been searching for an author that can provide a suspenseful and thrilling murder mystery. Linwood Barclay exceeded this, the plot development kept me obsessed the entire read. I especially loved the way the author described the characters and and as the plot developed so did the characters.

Linwood Barclay has easily become my favorite author and I've only read one book by him. I cannot wait to read more about the universe the author created called Promise Falls.

Enjoyable

This is the second audio book I have purchased by Linwood Barclay. It was fairly enjoyable to listen to. The narrator is very good.

I figured out ' who done it' fairly early on by bits and pieces of information that were scattered throughout the story line. I always listen to books when working on a project or on a road trip, so this was a worthwhile book for me. It kept me engaged.

Not too bad

First time listening to this author. Narrator was fairly monotone so it was hard to get into the story.
It’s a decent whodunnit and worth a listen.

Too close to unbelievable

A story that started with a lot of promise and then fell apart for me. Cardboard characters from a B-Movie, especially a wife who is duplicitous and rather vapid. I will try another book by this author and try for redemption.

The narration by C. Lane is excellent.
