An Ambush of Widows

De: Jeff Abbott

Narrado por: Christine Lakin

In New York Times best-selling author Jeff Abbott’s latest novel of riveting psychological suspense, an uneasy alliance forms as two widows delve into their husbands’ deadly and dangerous secrets - as they try to protect their own.

Henry North is a down-on-his-luck cybersecurity expert from New Orleans. Adam Zhang is the cofounder of one of Austin’s most successful venture capitalist firms. These two men didn’t know each other. They had never met. Yet they died together, violently, in a place neither had any business being.

When Henry doesn’t return from a business trip, his wife, Kirsten, panics - and then gets an anonymous phone call: “Your husband is dead in Austin.”

Flora Zhang knew her husband was keeping secrets. She suspected an affair, but she had decided she could forgive him for his weakness - until her husband ended up dead. And with no explanation for her husband’s murder, the police begin to suspect her.

Together, these two widows will face a powerful foe determined to write a false narrative about the murders. In doing so, neither Flora nor Kirsten will remain the women the world thought they were.

suspenseful

the narrator is great. couldn't stop listening I was said to see it end.

Just enough

This was an interesting story with average writing. Thought about stopping but kept with it. Just an ok book

Easy listening!

Engaging who done it ? Better than average narration, interesting storyline with more than a few twists and turns.

WOW...JUST WOW!

I'd never heard of this author but my favorite genre is mysteries and thrillers, so I took a chance. I'm so happy I did. This kept me guessing "who done it" until almost the last moment before it was cleverly revealed, but the edge-of-your-seat tension didn't stop there. The end seemed like a set up for a sequel so I'm going to check now for more Jeffery Abbott books. The narrator was great too...if s/he can get you so wrapped up in the story that you forget them, then, to me, that makes a great narrator. Worth the credit!

a well written effort

all nicely set up, complicated plotting, believable characters but the plot is so elaborate that it requires too much explication and adjustment.

Twists and turns

Great performance of this well architectured twisty crime novel.
Worths your time if you are into this kind of stuff!

This book had me at the opening scene.

I was looking for a book I could get into from the beginning and this one was a perfect choice. The twists and turns were great…… not too many, not too few, and just enough to keep me totally engaged. The narration was easy to understand and not too overwhelming with accents.
Off to find another Jeff Abbott book to read!

Great Read

Really well done who-done-it with all kinds of crimes and suspects. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It is something totally different. I highly recommend it. Enjoy!

Good one!

After several “meh” listens this one grabbed me from the start and kept up to pace throughout. Did not see that ending coming.

Great

I absolutely loved this book! I could not stop listening. Everything from the story and the narration was great. Highly recommend.
