Central Park

De: Guillaume Musso, Sam Taylor - translator

Narrado por: Stephanie Willis

From the #1 international bestselling author: a woman wakes up on a Central Park bench with no memory of how she got there in this “unpredictable and moving psychological thriller that keeps you holding your breath” (Métro)

Alice, a fierce and respected Parisian cop, wakes up on a Central Park bench with no memory of the night before, handcuffed to a complete stranger—a musician named Gabriel. Disoriented, dazed, and with someone else’s blood on her shirt, Alice works furiously to reconnect the dots. She remembers clubbing with her friends the night before on the Champs-Élysées. Gabriel claims he was playing a gig in Dublin. Was she drugged? Kidnapped? Why is the gun in her jacket pocket missing a bullet? And whose blood is on her clothes?

Over the next twenty-four hours, Alice and Gabriel race across New York in search of answers, stumbling upon a startling set of clues that point to a terrible adversary from the past. Alice must finally confront her memories of hunting the serial killer who took everything from her—a man she thought was dead, until now.

From France's #1 bestselling author, Central Park is a taut and suspenseful thriller that will keep readers riveted until its final shocking twist.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Praise for Central Park:

“Musso spoons out details and misdirection with brio… the initial conceit provoked plenty of interest… [the] opener is a doozy."—Sarah Weinman, New York Times Book Review

“Sure to please those who like to use reading as their cardio.”—CrimeReads

Praise for The Reunion

"This immensely satisfying thriller about a prep school scandal and three friends' buried secrets had me turning the pages well into the night. The Reunion has everything a masterful thriller should: gut-wrenching suspense, a twisting story with blindsiding surprises, and a narrator with a mysterious past. It's no wonder that Guillaume Musso is one of France's most loved, bestselling authors."—Harlan Coben

"The French call it a coup de foudre: a strike of lightning. That's how The Reunion zapped me, electrified me. For almost a decade, Guillaume Musso has reigned supreme as France's most popular author, and with this, his American debut, he's instantly poised to join the ranks of Stieg Larsson and Jo Nesbo. The Reunion zigzags so nimbly -- between past and present, from intrigue to terror, amid possible suspects and potential victims -- that you're at very real risk of whiplash. Witty, elegant, and peopled with complex characters, it's one of the most sheerly suspenseful novels I've read in years -- and among the most enjoyable, too."—A.J. Finn, bestselling author of The Woman in the Window

"A fast-paced thriller, set on the Cote d'Azur, packed with a glamorous missing girl, a dead body, and enough references to Twin Peaks and raves and Belle and Sebastian to tickle anybody who came of age in the 1990s... Musso is not just a popular author but the number one bestselling novelist in France. So you're bound to emerge more branché than those people you see on the beach reading home-grown potboilers."—Lauren Mechling, Vanity Fair

"In Musso's masterful plotting, Thomas faces fresh dangers at every turn. The atmospheric finale--which unfolds at Villa Fitzgerald and along Smugglers Way, the coastal path near some of the most lavish properties on the Côte d'Azur--brings shocking revelations."—Jane Ciabattari, BBC.com

"A multi-layered thriller that's fueled by urgency and drama. Guillaume Musso adds a menacing quality to the glamorous Côte d'Azur. With plot twists unleashed at a furious pace, The Reunion is a nightmare set in privileged utopia."—Frank Brasile, Shelf Awareness

"Despite the ticking-clock premise, Musso takes time to set the atmosphere, with lush details that transport the reader to a locale that's at once glamorous and also laced with a deep, abiding sadness."—Crimereads

"A fine tale of suspense from France's best-selling author."—Michele Leber, Booklist

Good story

The story was good, there was no lag at all, but the French accent was terrible, almost made me want to stop listening.

My First Guillaume Musso book!

Overall, I really enjoyed this book. At first the performance was not my favorite aspect of this story, but once I got into the book, I ended up really appreciating the performance - perhaps even more than the story. Stephanie Willis doesn't just narrate this, she acts it out in way that really brings it all to life.

The story takes some crazy twists and turns and does a good job of keeping you wondering what was going to happen next.

This was my first Guillaume Musso book and I'm sure it will not be my last.

Other reviewers said they don't like the ending and I get that, but at the end of the day, I am very glad to have read this book.

Just okay

The storyline took too many twists and turns. I felt disappointed with how it ended and wish the author could have done more with the basis for the story. And the narrators French accent was absolutely terrible! I almost couldn’t finish the book, it was that bad!

WOW!! Ok, so anything NewYork I’m ready!! BUT let me TELL YOU!

Good Thriller/Mystery read…. It literally could have been a movie.. ♡♡ the audible narration… 😘 chef kiss!!
