Resumen del Editor

In this explosive new thriller, #1 New York Times bestselling author Lisa Jackson delves into the deep bond between two sisters and their shared dream that becomes a harrowing nightmare of madness, hatred and jealousy....

Cassie Kramer and her younger sister, Allie, learned the hazards of fame long ago. Together, they'd survived the horror of a crazed fan who nearly killed their mother, former Hollywood actress Jenna Hughes. Still, Cassie moved to L.A., urging Allie to follow. As a team, they'd take the town by storm. But Allie, finally free of small-town Oregon, and just that little bit more beautiful, also proved to be more talented - and driven. Where Cassie got bit parts, Allie rose to stardom. But now her body double has been shot on the set of her latest movie - and Allie is missing.

Police discover that the last call to Allie's phone came from Cassie, though she has no recollection of making it. Instead of looking like a concerned relative, Cassie is starting to look like a suspect - the jealous sister who finally grew sick of playing a supporting role. As the tabloids go into a frenzy, Cassie ends up in a Portland psych ward. Is she just imagining the sinister figure who comes to her bedside, whispering about Allie - a visitor of whom there is no record? Is someone trying to help - or drive her mad?

Convinced she's the only one who can find Allie, Cassie checks herself out of the hospital. But a sudden slew of macabre murders - each victim masked with a likeness of a member of Cassie's family - makes Cassie fear for her safety and her sanity. The only way to end the nightmare is to find out what really happened to Allie. And with each discovery, Cassie realizes that no one can be trusted to keep her safe - least of all herself....

Breathy, monotone narrator

The story was pretty good, though a little long winded. I have found most of Lisa Jackson's books to be unnecessarily long. The narrator was monotone and breathy. Her "older" female voice sounds extremely pompous. The male voice was annoying and monotone. I would find myself not paying attention because the narrator's voice is so boring. The last sentence of each chapter the narrator made far too dramatic. She often sounds like a news reporter.

Plot twist, after plot twist

Enjoyed this book. would have preferred a little more action. The back & forth between character back story in the beginning was a little confusing. It struggled to keep my attention. However, I did see the climactic showdown coming. Not sure if it's because I'm smart or the writing was poor.

Long story but worth it

A little slow at first. Too much use of the word “Damned” lol. Julia Whelan, a great narrator, as always.

Entertains

This held my interest and was well performed. Worth my time.

I love mysteries and understand you need several potential culprits, but thought there were too many unnecessary characters in this book.

🌟Julia Whelan🌟 a narrator like no other!

I’m on my second listen …

I’ve had the pleasure of enjoying many audiobooks with narrator extraordinaire Julia Whelan, who never fails to deliver; from one character to several, she excels. Lisa Jackson penned an exciting suspenseful thriller from beginning to end. Whelan has a formidable range of characterizations, both female and male, a rare talent. I look forward to many more. Highly recommended! Epic, I say! EPIC! EPIC! EPIC!
