Don't Look Away

De: Robert W. Kirby

Narrado por: Louise Rook Schofield

A shocking find. A search for answers. And a journey to the brink of madness.

When her older brother, Felix, dies in a motorcycle accident, Nora Lambert is left to clear out his London flat, home to his prestigious artwork and life’s work. But among his possessions, she stumbles upon something far more disturbing.

A hidden USB stick. A file marked “Nobody’s Eyes.” Something she was never meant to see.

What she watches is beyond comprehension. A collection of disturbing clips that appear to be real snuff footage. And the most terrifying part? She thinks Felix might be in the film.

Is this a twisted art project or something far more sinister?

Determined to uncover the truth, Nora plunges into a shadowy world of dark web conspiracies, underground collectors, and depraved obsessions. The deeper she digs, the more she realises someone doesn’t want her asking questions.

Because some doors should never be opened, and some secrets are worth killing for.

Horror?

This is the first book I've read/listened to by Robert W Kirby. It's not my normal genre so I may be way off base, but it seemed to not only be mystery, Thriller, and suspense, but horror as well. I had to take breaks listening. I have to say I wanted to know the outcome! The twist and turns had me in suspense wondering what was happening.

Louis Rook Schofield is a great narrator. He brought the book to life with an emotional performance. Well done!

Unpredictable!

I was expecting a psychological thriller but I would actually put this more in the horror category. It kept me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. It was intense, captivating and gruesome. I had a hard time deciding who could be trusted and who couldn't. The answer is trust no one and expect the unexpected. Nora was thrown into a web of terror, lies and deceit thanks to the death of her brother. This was a very good story and I have gone back and forth about whether this was a 4 or 5 star book. Ultimately, I went with 4 stars because it was a bit more horror than I would like. If that's your thing, though, then I would highly recommend this book. Louise Rook Schofield did a good job bringing this story to life.

Keeps you on your toes

what a wild ride!!!

I read The Visit by Rob but honestly, that book has nothing compared to this one.

It is dark and full of revelations, you aren't sure you want to know. I was absolutely engrossed in this book the entire time and needed to know what happened next.

Then as the mystery is unraveling and you figure out what's happening -- it just hits the psychological part.

This book was so cleverly written and I am so excited for more of his books. Definitely one of the best psychological thrillers I have read.

Louise does such an amazing job narrating this. I was so involved and her narration really helped keep me on the edge of my seat.

The suspense!

When I started this book I didn't expect to get pulled into the story as much as I did. I couldn't stop listening wanting to find out what would happen next. It had me hooked! I can understand the way Nora kept going wanting to find out everything she could, but at the same time like girl look at the signs. I was definitely worth the read.

I did the audiobook which was really well done. The narration really brought the characters out. Will definitely keep you on the edge of your seat.
