About this listen
An Amazon Charts and USA Today bestseller.
Gina Royal is the definition of average—a shy Midwestern housewife with a happy marriage and two adorable children. But when a car accident reveals her husband’s secret life as a serial killer, she must remake herself as Gwen Proctor—the ultimate warrior mom.
With her ex now in prison, Gwen has finally found refuge in a new home on remote Stillhouse Lake. Though still the target of stalkers and Internet trolls who think she had something to do with her husband’s crimes, Gwen dares to think her kids can finally grow up in peace.
But just when she’s starting to feel at ease in her new identity, a body turns up in the lake—and threatening letters start arriving from an all-too-familiar address. Gwen Proctor must keep friends close and enemies at bay to avoid being exposed—or watch her kids fall victim to a killer who takes pleasure in tormenting her. One thing is certain: she’s learned how to fight evil. And she’ll never stop.

Story
Psychiatrist Dr. Gwen Moore is an expert on killers. She’s spent a decade treating California’s most depraved predators and unlocking their motives - predators much like the notorious Bloody Heart serial killer, whose latest teenage victim escaped and then identified local high school teacher Randall Thompson as his captor. The case against Thompson as the Bloody Heart Killer is damning - and closed, as far as Gwen and the media are concerned. If not for one new development.

Story
Hen and her husband, Lloyd, have settled into a quiet life in a new house outside of Boston, Massachusetts. Hen (short for Henrietta) is an illustrator and works out of a studio nearby and has found the right meds to control her bipolar disorder. Finally, she’s found some stability and peace. But when they meet the neighbors next door, that calm begins to erode as she spots a familiar object displayed on the husband’s office shelf. The sports trophy looks exactly like one that went missing from the home of a young man who was killed two years ago.

True crime writer Wylie Lark doesn’t mind being snowed in at the isolated farmhouse where she’s retreated to write her new book. A cozy fire, complete silence. It would be perfect, if not for the fact that decades earlier, at this very house, two people were murdered in cold blood and a girl disappeared without a trace.

Story
My husband is dead. I attended his funeral. I watched his casket be lowered six feet into the ground. (Actually, it may have been only five feet, but that still seems like more than enough.) And then we ate an array of finger sandwiches and deviled eggs and miniature beef wellingtons that cost more than my first car. My point is, Grant is gone. And so are all his many, many deep, dark secrets which I never really ever bothered to ask him about. He is never coming back.

Excellent!
A really well crafted story that had me on the edge of my seat throughout! The character development was well thought out and nuanced. Even when characters made bad decisions, it was possible to see why they did what they did. I look forward to listening to more books by this author.

Lots of gratuitous emotion
Good story premise. Way too much filler that overly explains what is readily apparent. Eg "I will do anything for my kids" said about 100 times. Got it the first time and really didn't need to be said in the first place.

Mass produced mystery
This felt just like books I read as a teen, it was not at all surprising to find out Rachel Caine was primarily a YA author. If you’re someone who’s drawn to the words “strong female lead” or if you can read a book in one night then this is for you. It wasn’t bad but it wasn’t worth the time I spent with it. Won’t be following up with the series.

Bad reading or bad sound editing?
Loved the story! Kept me interested right to the end. The narrator sound like it was read more from some artificial intelligence or text to speech software. It was a tone that would be hard to do so I suspect it may be just some bad sound editing. The other bad thing was it was written in first person so it was never very clear what was being spoken and what was being thought.
But overall, I found it a very good listen and I look forward to listening to the next novel. Hopefully the narration will be better.

Very Robotic narration
I struggled to keep listening. The narrator was very robotic. Thought I was listening to Alexa reading the book. The story was good, but didn't like that the whole book was told by the Main character.

This book is my favourite listen this year. I ate out of the authors hand, I was always a step behind.
The character development was wonderfully crafted.
