Publisher's Summary

For Sale: Lovely family home, ready for your updates. Friendly neighborhood setting close to park; secluded.

If not for the bodies discovered in the woods behind their new home, Garrick and Olivia Lockwood couldn't have afforded to buy number 25 The Avenue. It's the fresh start they and their two children badly need. Soon, these terrible crimes will be solved, they tell themselves, and once Garrick has remodeled, he's confident they'll sell the house for a profit.

But the darkest secrets can reside on quiet, ordinary streets like this - behind the doors of well-kept houses and neighbors' friendly faces. Secrets that can destroy a family, or savagely end a life, and will surface just when they're least expected....

Gripping story

First 20 mins was hard to follow. Had to repeat a few times. Once I got in the rythm of the writing style though, really enjoyed the book!!

Different Twists

The narration is great, love the accent and the point of view. Can be a little difficult to follow at times with the Dates/Times beginning each chapter. Perspectives switch frequently, so make sure you're paying attention. Overall it really comes together and is a great story!

Great Twists

I chose this book because it was free. It is a joy to my soul to find out the free book is amazing. Can’t stop listening. The mystery goes on and on, the characters are plenty with interesting lives.

Riveting

Well written, compelling and gruesome. A psychological thriller tells a cruel story. Worth the listen.

Narrator was good.

Like others have said, it’s hard to get into. It feels all over the place.
