About this listen
The deeper the secret, the darker the shadow.
Ten years ago, Jolene nearly killed her friend Elizabeth in a gruesome accident. And no one has any idea. Not even Elizabeth.
Jolene has been trying to outrun the guilt ever since, wandering from place to place and career to career. So she’s shocked when, after her latest move, she runs into the very person she’s been trying to avoid for ten years.
Elizabeth still lives with scars from the accident. And she’s still clueless about what happened that fateful night.
Or is she?
As the two women rekindle a friendship, Elizabeth’s increasingly disturbing behavior makes Jolene wonder if it’s her own guilt stalking her—or Elizabeth finally exacting her revenge.

Everyone except Chloe’s cousin, Frankie, who never gave up hope that she was alive. When Chloe unexpectedly shows up at her own annual memorial event, Frankie is overjoyed. But this isn’t the reunion she had imagined. Chloe has no memory of that night in 1999—or her life before her disappearance.

Story
Merritt Coletto and her husband, Luca, have the life they dreamed of: a coastal home, a promising future, and a growing family. That dream ends with a late-night knock on the door. Weak, broken, and emaciated, it’s Luca’s first wife, Lydia. Missing for ten years, presumed dead, and very much alive, she has quite a story. Racked with guilt over the beautiful life they’ve built, Merritt and Luca agree to help get Lydia back on her feet - it’s the least they can do. But the more enmeshed Lydia becomes in Merritt’s family, the more questions Merritt has.

Not Her Best
- By Avid series reader on 08-05-23
This might have been a better book than audiobook

That said, while the story is engaging, it feels like it’s missing a little extra spark to elevate it to greatness—perhaps more character depth or a stronger emotional punch. Even so, it’s a good read overall and worth picking up if you enjoy thrillers with a solid foundation.
A satisfying 3.5 stars!
Solid Psychological Thriller with Room for More

Overall, I’d recommend it, though. The ending wasn’t *that* shocking and BookTok kept commenting on how many twists the book has (is doesn’t really), but it was still an enjoyable read.
Annoying protagonist, amazing narrator

With that said, I wasn’t impressed. I have read some great thriller/mystery books recently, and this one came up short for me. The last 50 pages or so the story really picked up. The twist at the end was good too. Some of it I did see coming, which isn’t normally something I can do when reading this genre. 😆
I give props to Faith Gardner for the mental health rep. Kudos to that!
This wasn’t a super memorable book, and I read it for book club this month. I have so many questions and opinions and I’m excited to chat about them with others!
Eerie vibes!
