They are all guilty of something!

I listed to the Audible version of this book and it was FANTASTIC It's been a long time since I wanted to call in sick to work to finish a book

YES there are a lot of characters - I actually have one of those pin and thread charts in my head to keep it all straight. It took a few chapters to get into the cadence of who was who and who is with who. Once I caught on, there was no problem working it out.

YES there are a few sex scenes - There are also fade to black and closed door scenes also

YES this book is a wild ride that I'm OBSESSED with! HOLY SMOKES what small decisions could change the course of one's life.

YES I ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND THIS STORY!!!!

I listened on Audible at 1.25 speed and it was perfect. The narrator is going to my "auto one click" narrators.

A Tangled web of deceit

This book was incredible!! First, I would highly recommend it for the more mature audience as there is plenty of adult content. This book was so good and the narration was amazing that I hated stopping for breaks. The intricacies between all of the neighbors and the dynamics are hard to follow at times and mind boggling. The story just continues to build as the story gets deeper and deeper into a tangled web with secrecy, lust, and deceit. My only criticism is that it seems as if the book ended abruptly for how much of the story line was built up. The ending was absolutely surprising for me and caught me off guard. I love the bit of mystery and suspense! I can’t wait to read/listen to more from this author!

Intriguing

I really liked this audiobook! The narrator was fantastic—her voice made the story come alive, and I felt totally immersed in it. What really grabbed me was the way the story slowly revealed the secrets of the neighborhood. It kept me guessing about what was really going on, and I couldn’t stop listening. Definitely a great pick if you enjoy a story with twists and a bit of mystery!

Immature and ridiculous

I hated this book. Jumped to the last 38 minutes just to see how it ended and it was as ridiculous as the rest that I listen to. I do not recommend.

Would you buy a house where someone died?

No matter how hard you search for the perfect home, you must also be just as diligent in researching your neighbors! This is the story of Michael and Amelia buying their first home, in the perfect area, chosen for prestige. After being invited to a BBQ at the Cul de Sac matriarch and patriarch’s home to meet the neighbors NOTHING is as it seems.

The characters are complex and well developed and no one writes a good gut clinch like Liz Crowe. Cul de Sac is not a romance but there is a sexual undertone in this psychological thriller. This book is a roller coaster ride with twists and turns and an unexpected killer.

I started this book with my eyes (kindle) and finished it with my ears (Audible). The reader was fantastic and the book credit worthy!
