About this listen
Victoria Barnett has it all: a great career as a nurse practitioner, a handsome and loving husband, a beautiful home in the suburbs, and a plan to fill it with children. Life is perfect—or so it seems. Then she’s in a terrible accident...and everything falls apart. Now Victoria is unable to walk. She can’t feed or dress herself. She can’t even speak. She is confined to the top floor of her house with 24-hour care.
Sylvia Robinson is hired by Victoria’s husband to help care for her. But it turns out Victoria isn’t as impaired as Sylvia was led to believe. There’s a story Victoria desperately wants to tell...if only she could get the words out. Then Sylvia discovers Victoria’s diary hidden away in a drawer. And what’s inside is shocking.

A night spent sleeping on dirt and leaves is not how Claire Matchett expected to spend her vacation. She thought this would be a break. A week of hiking and hot tubs with two other couple friends. Then Claire’s minivan breaks down on a lonely dirt road. With no cell reception, the group has no choice but to hike the rest of the way to their hotel. But it turns out the woods aren’t as easy to navigate as they thought. Hours later, they are lost. Hopelessly lost. And as they navigate deeper into the woods, the members of their party are struck down mysteriously one by one.

Had to turn it off
Ok so the narration was annoying but tolerable……..until Victoria’s journal. The voice for Victoria is unbearably annoying. Like if someone had that voice in real life you’d hate them. It’s wispy, there’s whistles on certain words , airy, and just plain annoying. I can’t comment on the story because I couldn’t listen to it . I’m sad I wasted a credit!

Well.written but not as good as her other novels
I did struggle to finish this. Found the tension and pacing not that good. I unfortunately didn't like the narration. Too soothing and odd for a thriller/mystery. It's a shame because good narration can elevate ok mysteries. I do regret spending my one credit on this. its unfortunate because her other books are excellent.

I really enjoyed this Audible book. The narrator was great. The story was fast paced. The plot was interesting and the end had some twists and turns to it. I liked this book as much as the two housemaid books.

Good
It's not my favourite book by the author, but not as bad at some reviews suggest. First, the narrator is really good and a lot better than sone of the narrators this author has had, idk what everyone's beef is with her. Second, the story is interesting, it's just a bit slower, and similar to a lot of her other plots. But if you like this author, I'd recommend the novel.
