Two high school teachers—Amber Dorris and Leticia Laye—become obsessed with a true-crime podcast about the 1999 murder of 12-year-old Sarah Gerlach.

Amber’s marriage to her real estate agent husband Gary is on the rocks. As a distraction, she and Letitia become increasingly absorbed by the case against local Blake Wernerhet. Blake was convicted of murdering Sarah, who was the little sister of a friend of his. While he maintains his innocence, everything points to this man being a vicious killer of an innocent girl.

As Amber’s personal life crumbles, she begins communicating with Blake in prison, drawn in by a connection she can't quite explain. Convinced of his innocence, Amber and Leticia hatch an elaborate plan to help Blake escape during his final appeal hearing.
But is Blake a good man wrongly accused, or has Amber placed all her faith in a charismatic monster?

The development

Excellent, story development, character, development, and plot. Not completely reductible and very enjoyable narrative. Will definitely search for the author again

I’m hooked from chapter 1. I was onboard for every twist,turn and roundabout….

I need all so much more! Chapter one had me on the hook! This is a story with all the twist and turns! This is a much listen.

Presentation was great!

I loved the storyline! The sound effects, the actors and the characters they portrayed were so believable I thought I was right there!

FEEL GOOD CRIME

Picked this up because of the location and got completely sucked into the story. LOVE these ladies, LOVE the ending

Truly excellent! Perfect for travel or downtime

Great plot, brilliant character development, even the minor characters are well realized. And the acting is superb. I had never heard of of the Author, but I am glad Audible served this up free!!

Fun read

Both main narrators were just so good. All narrarators were good but close friendship was so easy to get into. So many clever and humourous moments in this light weight crime story. The line about Gary "taking the hotdog bus to taco town" slayed me. It was fun read. I would definitely appreciate a follow up book. Yes they made a few mistakes, like SLED, sometime low country accents was not perfect, but totally forgiveable. It was so entertaining!

I would give this 12 stars if I could

This is one of the most refreshing books I have head in forever.
Nothing offensive, dark, gross or plain stupid.
I wish I had known these 2 teachers in high school. They would have made learning fun.

Unfortunately I purchased another book by this author that was the worst bloody nasty book I tried to listen to.

Loved it!

I love books that have full casts - Great performance - felt like you were listening to a movie 😊

However, as the book progressed so did the bad language ☹️

Kept you looking for more all the time.

I didn’t expect that ending. It was a well written book. There were a lot of turns and twist to this story.

Entertaining Read

Krissy was great. No complaints and she became more believable as the story progressed. But the book/show stealer is Uzo!! I'm not a fan of books performed by actors. Uzo changed my mind the beginning of chapter 1. I was already a fan and have now added audiobooks to the list. I enjoyed the story. Uzo brought it to life.
