June Moody, a 30-something English professor, just wants to get away from her recent breakup and reunite with girlfriends over summer break. Her old friend and longtime nemesis Sadie MacTavish, a mega-successful author, invites June and her college friends to a baby shower at her sprawling estate in the San Juan Islands. June is less than thrilled to spend time with Sadie and her husband - June's former crush - but agrees to go.

The party gets off to a shaky start when old grudges resurface, but when they wake the next morning, they find something worse: Sadie is missing, the house is in shambles, and bloodstains mar the staircase. None of them has any memory of the night before; they wonder if they were drugged. Everyone's a suspect. Since June had a secret rendezvous with Sadie's husband, she has plenty of reason to suspect herself. Apparently, so do the cops.

A Celtic knot of suspense and surprise, this brooding, atmospheric novel will keep you guessing as each twist reveals a new possibility. It will remind you of friendships hidden in the depths of your own past and will make you wonder how well you really know the people you've loved the longest.

Really enjoyed the main character and the setting for the story. It's not quite as "scary," but if you enjoy how Riley Sager writes, I think you will enjoy this a lot. It wasn't the most original or groundbreaking story, but it had a good number of twists and turns. Overall, it was great escape from the current COVID-life.

The narration was great! (Although she probably wont win any awards for her Scottish accent). ;-) I would gladly listen to her read another novel.

Glad I Chose This One

Excited to download this book to read on my girls trip. The characters and storyline were not realistic or relatable for me. It felt a little too Hollywood life! I like books which can relate to more of a real life challenge or plot line. I recommend this book for a simple mystery seeker.

Bland story line

I love a good audio book when the narrator is annimated and in tune with the characters. In this novel, I was all into the characters during all of the scenes leading up to the finale. I enjoyed this book.

Better than expected

Good story sadly the performance for me was awful. I found the narrator whiny and at times hard to understand with rising and falling pitch. And the men voices were terrible.

Good story

excellent

Kept me on the edge of my seat trying to figure out the mysteries. I enjoyed the character development which made the story more believable.

Intriguing Murder Mystery

It’s unrealistic how the girls reacted to a missing person and how they were so much more absorbed in their own fate than wether the protagonist was alive

Basic

This was a great thriller, kept me guessing until the end! Even when I thought I knew what was coming, it took a sharp turn and I audibly gasped several times. My only gripe was with the voice performance. If you listened to A Touch of Darkness, you might not be able to unhear the characters from that audiobook. It also mentioned that one of the male characters had an Irish brogue but the voice actress kind of sounded like she was slipping into a Russian accent.

Twisty, Turny

I really enjoyed the story but the narrator made it difficult to listen to. Her mispronounciation of the Japanese name "Kimiko" made me wanna tear out my hair. The descriptions of smells & scenes etc. were too elaborate & way over dramatized but the premise made for a good book.

Good Story
