Stranger Child

De: Rachel Abbott

Narrado por: Lisa Coleman

From the author of number one best seller Sleep Tight.

One dark secret. One act of revenge.

When Emma Joseph met her husband, David, he was a man shattered by grief. His first wife had been killed outright when her car veered off the road. Just as tragically, their six-year-old daughter mysteriously vanished from the scene of the accident. Now, six years later, Emma believes the painful years are behind them. She and David have built a new life together and have a beautiful baby son, Ollie. Then a stranger walks into their lives, and their world tilts on its axis. Emma's life no longer feels secure. Does she know what really happened all those years ago? And why does she feel so frightened for herself and for her baby?

When a desperate Emma reaches out to her old friend, DCI Tom Douglas, for help, she puts all their lives in jeopardy. Before long, a web of deceit is revealed that shocks both Emma and Tom to the core. They say you should never trust a stranger. Maybe they're right.

Pretty good.

Good plot and story idea, but I didn't like it as much as the first book in this series. Very good narrator though. Will try another book in this series regardless.

Entertaining

Very good book. Tim was an intimate to me. I suppose he will be in future books. every odd characters in the book though. Wonder if it will be included in future books. Hmmm.

Heart-pounding Suspence plus Kleenex Required

My title above pretty much covers it. Also well- drawn chracters whose interwoven lives keep the reader guessing. Maybe not everyone will need the box of Kleenex. I did.
Recommended!

Love this lady's voice

It was an interesting story. I loved the narrator's voice and she does an excellent job reading the story. Story was a little predictable, but still good.

Really Good Mystery

Rachel Abbott does such a seamless job of developing her characters. The plot and story is so interesting and complex. I really liked seeing how all the tangled threads unraveled and then led to a wild twist at the end. Love this series.

Lisa Coleman is excellent with the narration.

Satisfying read...

A nicely done mix of police procedure with psychological suspense, although the interconnectedness of the main characters seemed to be a reach at times. Shows what you are willing to do when an adorable child's life hangs in the balance... Found myself walking around saying "'Ey!" like little Ollie. Good plot twists toward t he end...

Not terrible, but not one I would recommend.

My second in this series, out of order though. Lots of great reviews on this one, but I didn't enjoy it all that much and was happy when it ended and I can start a new book. I guess I liked the other one better, but really I think it's just not my favorite style of book and maybe that is a big part of the problem, so I am not reading anymore of the series or maybe even of the author. Detective series aren't my favorite anyway and so there's that, but some I do like. Just so so in my opinion.

Excellent book both the writer and narrator did great.

I am hoping there is a sequel. I would love to know more about Natasha and Jack. trying not to give any spoiler information.

Totally worth it!

My mind was in full throttle the entire story!
Just enough hints were dropped to pull it together without giving anything away!
An abduction of a child 6 years prior had set a rippling effect of events that turned into a tsunami nightmare for Emma who was an innocent mother.
The possibilities of this ever ending threw Emma into unimaginable situations. It could happen!
Hoping for book 2 with Emma!

Decent and Interesting

While I enjoyed the story as a whole, I got a little bored and almost didn't finish it. Glad I made it through though.
