Publisher's summary

Kay Hooper’s flair for storytelling and her broad mastery of genre are apparent in her electrifying novels. Her many works include modern and historical romances, fantasies, mysteries, gothic novels, and, like Out of the Shadows, suspense thrillers featuring psychic ability.

The small, friendly town of Gladstone, Tennessee seems the ideal place to raise a family - until two teenagers are found tortured to death. Sheriff Miranda Knight will do anything to make her small town safe again, even if it means calling in Noah Bishop, the FBI’s psychic profiler. The last time she and Noah combined their psychic powers, she was almost destroyed. Now she must learn to trust him again, or she will most certainly die at the hands of the monster who’s stalking her town.

Narrator C.J. Critt breathes life into the beautiful psychic sheriff with paranormal powers and transforms this exciting blend of romance, mystery, and suspense into an exciting listening experience.

great story, horrible narrator

I was a fan of this book when I first read it in paperback. The narrator was so bad. she has some kind of odd breathing pattern and pauses at odd moments. The only thing that saves this horrible narration is the story.

How quickly the drive goes...

when you have a great book! I've been reading Kay Hooper, (when i could find an audio book thru my local library) for years. Well, about one a year maybe? I'm so looking forward to listening to all the books i've missed thru Audible! I love the Bishop series, enough twists and turns to keep my attention. This was a great one!

Great 3rd Book

The end while unbelievable at least keeps the series going. Didnt expect the killer to be who it turned out to be which made the suspension grow.

Great chary!

Narrator’s male voice didn’t sound right for Bishop. Previous Bishop voices from series sounded more like the authors description.

Love Kay Hooper - this narrator not-so-much

I enjoy Kay Hooper's entertaining stories. This narrator, however, was poor. Her inability to differentiate the voices of the characters oftentimes made the dialogue hard to follow. And she also did not pay any attention to what the author indicated in the prose as the mood/tone of what the character was saying. Either no inflection or the absolute wrong inflection. I will avoid this narrator in the future.

Male voices could have been better.

The main male character sounds like a whiney teenage boy. Female voices are good.

the lip smacking drove me crazy.

story good. narrator's acting is good, but you can hear every swallow, lip smack and basically every wet mouth noise. if that doesn't bother you, then it was a good audiobook.
