About this listen
FBI Analyst Kat Danvers had traded in her badge for a quiet desk job crunching numbers, hoping to escape the shadows of her past. She found solace working alongside her best friend, Hannah, at the FBI headquarters in Washington DC. But on a chilling winter day, a haunting call from a witness she thought she'd left behind forces her back into the field. They know Kat's history, and they need her expertise to find a missing person.
Haunted by her last case while a field agent, Kat is determined to prove herself and finally put her demons to rest. Alongside her partner in the field, the charismatic Agent Nick, and the new Rookie Hannah Jones, they chase an enigmatic threat that defies explanation. A word, 'Borealis,' emerges as the only leadan elusive, liquid metal that materializes out of thin air to snatch innocent victims.
As the rest of the agency dismisses the case as madness, Kat embarks on a personal journey of redemption that takes her across the country. Fueled by a burning desire to bring closure to grieving families, she's determined to unmask the perpetrator, even if they aren't human.
But as the investigation unfolds, Kat finds herself drawn to the field agent Nick in ways she never expected. Their partnership evolves into something more, but the danger unfolding as they grow closer only manages to torment Kat in new ways.
In this gripping mystery thriller with a touch of science fiction, Kat Danvers must confront not only an otherworldly threat but also the ghosts of her past. Will love conquer all in the face of the unexplained? Join Kat on a heart-pounding quest for truth that will keep you listening well into the night.

Story
We live in a world where identity often feels like a performance, where the pressure to conform and meet expectations can strip us of our true selves. For as long as I can remember, I’ve been caught in that web, feeling the weight of what society wanted me to be. I had the career, the success, the outward image of someone who had it all together. But deep down, I knew something was missing. I was living a life built on what others thought I should be, instead of who I really was.

Story
Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Story
Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

My fiancé brought me tea and scrambled eggs in bed that morning, and we snuggled together, talking about buying our rings, and about our perfect wedding next year. Then we headed into town. He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.

Masterful narration of a story that was so good that it kept me listening at the cost of doing chores and in place of watching other forms of entertainment - I couldn't put it down!
