Fantastic!

Great story… but the narrator was brilliant. She bought every character to life. Some scenes were so sad and gripping I had to stop what I was doing and just listen.

Another Great Story

Story very engaging. Many twists and turn. I always fall in love with the characters and this author evokes emotions effortlessly. My only negative was Amanda's voice - horrendous!

Emotional roller coaster

It's been a few years since I'd last read a Karin Slaughter and I'd forgotten how much I love her novels! This one was just a gut punch. Initially the narrator's accent was not quite what I expected but it turned out to be perfect. Can't wait to catch up on what used to be and has become again, my favourite author

Brilliant!

Will Trent books just get better and better. Lots of twists and turns to keep you guessing. Kathleen Early's narration is excellent as always.

Suspenseful tale.

Loved the story, more inciteful writing from Karin with a few Red Herrings throughout. I did get the whodunnit till the end.

Absolutely fantastic

Will and Sarah perfection. Brilliant book. As usual it is filled with twists and unexpected surprises. Think locked door mystery but on a mountain. I can’t wait for the next Trent book.
