Interesting storyline

"I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review."
The story is not what I was expecting, but overall it was a good listen. I was a little disappointed with the ending but aside from that it's a good story.

Hands down 5 stars

I don't hand out 5 stars lightly. "Aftermath of a murder" earns everyone of them. First off the title is perfect. The book starts off with a murder but the story is about way more then just finding out who was the killer. V K McGivney has a very engaging style of writing. I finished this audio book in a day and a half. I just kept wanting to learn more. Nano Nagle does a wonderful job narrating this book. I so enjoyed her accent. I was gifted this book with the understanding I would leave an honest review.

Great mystery!

Really loved this one! It's a mix of a psychological thriller and mystery, telling the story of family coping with the murder of a husband and father, and wife coping with the sordid details surrounding his unknown life. No more spoilers, just listen! Would compare this one to Clare MacKintosh's work. Excellent, can't wait to see more from this author! ***This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.***

Interesting take on the crime novel.

Very good!

After the murder of her husband this single mother has to learn to live with the ugly secrets that come to life during the investigation while trying to protect her children from a truth so horrible that it had to come out eventually.

The narrator does a very good job with the narration.
