Cold, Dark, and Silent

De: David Reed

Narrado por: Paul J McSorley

There are three essential motives for murder: power, money, and love gone wrong. The disappearance of Georgia Murphy combines all three. Her case has been cold for two years, and powerful locals want to keep it that way. They can’t afford a scandal in the rural town, not when new industrial development is set to line their pockets. As former detective “Chig” Ashe soon discovers, probing into Georgia’s case will destroy any hope of a peaceful retirement in his hometown. Even the woman he falls in love with seems to have her hands deep into the town’s misinformation campaign, and in the violent and deadly attempts to keep him from exposing their secret.

They will stop at nothing to stop him, but he will stop at nothing to uncover the cold, dark, and silent truth.

did a superb job of fluidly moving between characters. Voices for each character were very realistic.

The story line with various twists and turns held my attention. I am looking forward to book two.

Mystery solved!

Will keep you guessing where the story will turn next. Real and relatable characters work through a the two year old mystery disappearance of Georgia Murphy with twists at every turn that will keep you guessing "why?"

Gripping story that captivated right from the beginning!

This isn’t my normal genre. A friend recommended this to me and I am so glad that he did! I was hooked by the second chapter. The characters are so relatable and familiar feeling that they create images in my mind while listening. Once I completely finish this title I will definitely be looking for more titles from this author.

authentic and chilling

This is a well told tale. The "good guys" are relatable and likeable. The "bad" guys are reprehensible.
