Publisher's summary

The end of her high-profile broadcasting career came too soon for TV journalist Alison Reynolds - bounced off the air by executives who wanted a "younger face". With a divorce from her cheating husband of 10 years also pending, there is nothing keeping her in L.A. any longer.

Cut loose from her moorings, Ali is summoned back home to Sedona, Arizona, by the death of a childhood friend. Once there, she seeks solace in the comforting rhythms of her parents' diner, the Sugarloaf Café, and launches an online blog as therapy for others who have been similarly cut loose.

But when threatening posts begin appearing, Ali finds out that running a blog is far more up-close and personal than sitting behind a news desk. And far more dangerous. Suddenly something dark and deadly is swirling around her life...and a killer may be hunting her next.

Great story, annoying music

The story is great, the person who performed it is very good. But at the beginning of every chapter and in the middle of every chapter is a little musical interlude. I love good music. This was NOT good music. It was a very annoying little jingle that was sometimes playing over the narration. I haven't come across another audio book that did this and I hope that I don't in the future.

Boo to the music between chapters!!

The story might have been ok had there not been terrible music between chapters with people talking over. Hard to listen too. The narrator was fine, she was easy to listen too. The story was kind of slow and the MUSIC was terrible. Super distracting.

Great story! Horrible interruptions

I really enjoyed the story except for one thing, the music interruptions. It was distracting and unnecessary. Would have given it 5 stars if it had not been for those abrupt interruptions. Otherwise, I enjoyed the narrator, the story, and the fact I did not figure out who it was until right before it was revealed.
