A REESE WITHERSPOON x HELLO SUNSHINE BOOK CLUB PICK
"Get cozy because you won't be able to put this one down! Our final Reese’s Book Club pick of 2019 is the thrilling murder-mystery Conviction by Denise Mina. This story combines suspense, international intrigue, and the murder of an entire family aboard a ship...following the one woman who may just have all the answers." (Reese Witherspoon)
The captivating, utterly unforgettable thriller for fans of Killing Eve and The Woman in the Window: A true-crime podcast sets a trophy wife's present life on a collision course with her secret past.
The day Anna McDonald's quiet, respectable life explodes starts off like all the days before: Packing up the kids for school, making breakfast, listening to yet another true crime podcast. Then her husband comes downstairs with an announcement, and Anna is suddenly, shockingly alone.
Reeling, desperate for distraction, Anna returns to the podcast. Other people's problems are much better than one's own - a sunken yacht, a murdered family, a hint of international conspiracy. But this case actually is Anna's problem. She knows one of the victims from an earlier life, a life she's taken great pains to leave behind. And she is convinced that she knows what really happened.
Then an unexpected visitor arrives on her front stoop, a meddling neighbor intervenes, and life as Anna knows it is well and truly over. The devils of her past are awakened - and in hot pursuit. Convinced she has no other options, she goes on the run, and in pursuit of the truth, with a washed-up musician at her side and the podcast as her guide.

For Susan Green, messy emotions don’t fit into the equation of her perfectly ordered life.

Story
It’s early fall when a heatwave descends on Los Angeles. Private Detective Philip Marlowe is called to the Montgomery estate, an almost mythic place sitting high on top of Beverly Hills. Wealthy socialite Chrissie Montgomery is missing. Young, naïve, and set to inherit an enormous fortune, she’s a walking target, ripe for someone to get their claws into. Her dying father and his sultry bottle-blonde girlfriend want her found before that happens. To make sure, they’ve got Anne Riordan—now head of her own all-female detective agency—on the case, too.

As the news reporter requests the public's help in locating those responsible for the robbery, security footage reveals Tessa's sister, Marian, pulling a black ski mask over her face.

What the critics say
"Mina's latest thriller is a spellbinding listen featuring a superbly talented narrator. Cathleen McCarron expertly portrays numerous characters spanning several ages, accents, genders, and emotions. She particularly shines as protagonist Anna McDonald.... Anna is a quirky, compelling heroine, and McCarron is a narrative force." (AudioFile magazine)
"Such a delight: playful, fast-paced, and entirely compulsive." (Ann Cleeves, author of the best-selling Shetland series)
"Denise Mina brilliantly manages to be funny, heart-wrenching, gut-punching and addictive all at once: A fabulous, captivating novel." (Nicci French, author of the international best seller Day of the Dead)
"Spellbinding.... A metafictional marvel that both endorses and exemplifies the power of storytelling." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)

kept me guessing until the end
aside from the story inside the story that ropes you in, part of what makes this audiobook so good is the narrator. different voices for different characters really helps you understand everything a little bit better. I found myself wanting to listen to this all the time.
this is about a podcast that chronicles of murder mystery and it's very different and inventive and will keep you guessing until the very end!

The narration is top notch
Honestly one of the most engaging narrations I’ve had from Audible! The story is a thriller that’s dark but also has a lightness. I really liked it and would especially recommend to true crime podcasts fans like myself.

it's alright
The performance was good after you get used to the author's voice (takes about 30 mins) but the story was meh.

Enjoyed this thoroughly
Great narrator and story - definitely worth a listen. I enjoyed the podcasts they listen to about the ship and its ghost stories, and the way the characters were written.

What a joy!!
This book was an absolute joy to listen to! I’m not sure how it would be with another narrator but I honestly don’t think it would be as amusing or entertaining. I enjoyed it so much ! 💕

Entertaining murder mystery
Well worthwhile as a light and entertaining murder-mystery. I would have liked a richer plot line with more character development, however I found the story entertaining and would recommend it to anyone looking for an easy-to-listen-to mystery novel.

Loved it
Fast paced and engaging, lovely narration. Always impressed when a performer can do such a range of accents. Where certain plot points or background are a bit thin, the overall story carries you along. Was a great listen while doing housework and cooking!

Quirky and entertaining
I really enjoyed listening to Conviction. The narrator, although appears as unreliable, is quirky and very interesting to learn about. Plot was interesting and keeps you guessing.
