Publisher's summary

When the game is deception, nothing is as it seems in this novel of cunning psychological suspense by the #1 Amazon Charts bestselling author of I’ll Never Tell.

Do you want to play a game?

Twelve years ago Jessica Williams escaped a cult. Thanks to the private detective who rescued her, she reintegrated into society, endured an uncomfortable notoriety, and tried to put it all behind her. Then, at an airport bar, Jessica meets a woman with an identical name and birth date. It appears to be just an odd coincidence - until a week later, when Jessica finds her bank account drained and her personal information stolen.

Following a trail of the grifter’s victims, each with the same name, Jessica gathers players - one by one - for her own game. According to her plan, they’ll set a trap and wait for the impostor to strike again. But plans can go awry, and trust can fray, and as Jessica tries to escape the shadows of her childhood, the risks are greater than she imagined. Now, confronting the casualties of her past, Jessica can’t help but wonder...

Loved it!

What‘s in a name? Jessica is about to find out it’s her whole world and reputation. Desperate to reclaim what was stolen, she heads out on to get her life back. Interwoven with her past in a cult as a child, this book blew me away. Totally loved it. The actor was amazing and the voices were spot on. Can’t wait for more from this author.

Slow start... cliff hanger

The story line is good, had to go back a few times to catch clues I missed. Excellent narrations!

Twisty Tale of Revenge

A girl raised in a cult meets a grifter at an airport with her same name and birthdate. This starts a very twisty tale of revenge.

Lots of twists and turns!

Different plot than most thrillers. Interesting ending. Believable. A peek into the cult life and into a consummate con artist.

Wow! WoW! WOW!

I just finished, ´You Can’t Catch Me,´ and I’m sorry it’s over, but I whipped through it, as it was so good.
I don’t want to be a spoiler regarding any aspect of this richly layered story; and the publisher’s description hints at all you need to know to whet your appetite. There is a lot going on here, but it is superbly structured and easy to follow. All the characters are fully fleshed out, and the dialogue flows naturally. Julia Whelan’s narration makes the entire package a work of sheer perfection.

No spoilers here - just listen

Good premise, interesting plot - definitely recommend. One of my favorite narrators. If I meet someone with the same name and birth date I'm going to the ladie's room and not coming back.

Good story with a great final twist

A fun take on a little mystery/thriller. Julia Whalen is my favorite narrator so I almost love any book she narrates. But I do like how the characters developed and the ending twist makes the entire book that much better. Not a huge fan of the love interest, it seemed a little pointless. Anyway overall in the end I did really like the book. Definitely one of those who done it good listen.

Kept me interested from the beginning

I liked the book and recommend it. I stayed tuned. You think you’re predicting the ending but there’s a twist. The ending is surprising but a little made up.
