Enjoyable Read

I liked that the author let a couple of victims escape. I was surprised at the identity of the villain. I will no-doubt read this author again.

Average

Would you try another book from Katie Reus and/or Eliza Foss?

Probably not

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

The identity of the killer
The fact that the supposedly expert agent was basically TSTL

How could the performance have been better?

Less emoting.

Do you think Deadly Obsession needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

No. I didn't warm to either character and don't really care to find out what happens to them. I struggled to finish the book, to be honest.

Super Creepy

Okay, the story was super creepy. The narrator, Eliza Foss, does an amazing job with this story. There were times I was glad I was listening to the story during the day. She was able to capture each of the characters voice. The villain's voice still creeps me out. She would be someone I would be willing to listen read another suspense story.

Edge of my seat

What a roller coaster. Lots of mystery, twists and turns. I kept guessing who the bad guy was and never did figure it out. The relationship between Lily and Braedon was very realistic.
Another fabulous story by Katie.
Narration was well done. Keeping you engaged but not focused on her voice but the story. Great job.
