Finding Tessa

De: Jaime Lynn Hendricks

Narrado por: Andrew Eiden, Kasha Kensington

A woman disappears and frames her husband for her murder - but she soon learns the past isn’t so easily left behind.

Jace and Tessa appear to be a young couple in love with nothing to hide. But looks can be deceiving.

When Jace Montgomery comes home late from entertaining clients, he discovers that his wife, Tessa, is missing. There’s broken glass at the back door. Clumps of her hair. Blood. The cops in their small New Jersey town have him pegged as a suspect, especially after he explodes at a reporter during a press conference. Jace maintains his innocence despite the mounting evidence against him, but when a coworker he’s accused of having an affair with also disappears and a search warrant turns up an illegal gun in Jace’s home, all signs point to him as the culprit. What is he really hiding?

Meanwhile, Tessa finally feels safe, having set up her husband to take the fall for her disappearance - and someone close to him is helping her put him away. Breaking her lifelong pattern of bad men is only one hurdle she has to overcome. The other is outrunning her secret past while trying to stay alive, especially when those in her new life aren’t who they appear to be.

Jace’s lies don’t add up, and the authorities are closing in. Will Tessa’s old life catch up to her and drag her back to a life of abuse before justice is served?

Finding Tessa is a smart domestic thriller where nothing can be taken at face value, where every twist reveals a deadlier secret than the one before. Fans of Gillian Flynn, Samantha Downing, and incisive, fresh psychological suspense won’t want to miss it.

Stunner!

This book was amazing. Twists and turns around each corner! Kept me coming back for more!

Awesome!!

Interesting and suspenseful. And it kept you guessing until the very end!!!!! I highly recommend it!!!

Excellent performance and story

I will remember this book for a very long time. I would tell my friends this is a must read book.

Good story but fell flat

Enjoyed but dragged in the middle. Lost its energy. I think it would have benefited from another edit. It was also very sexist I thought. Women's characters were flat, not well thought out, unrealistic.

Meh…

Not great. The female narrator for one was not very good in my opinion. The storyline was just meh…

Great Book!

We were on a roadtrip and heard great things about this Author and book. We bought the audio version and it kept us spellbound for hours while traveling. At some points we didn't want to get out of the car so we could keep listening! Can't wait to read the next book by Jamie Lee Hendricks.

Engaging listen

This book kept me guessing throughout, a little different/ initially had difficulty following as it does not state when jumping from past to present, very enjoyable and ending was unexpected. Would recommend!!

Do not recommend- graphic abuse situations

Warning: contains graphic descriptions of abuse. Nothing in the book description even hinted at the scope of this. Drug abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse situations.

Messy and uneven

The male narrator did a nice job, but the female narrator was annoying. The story timeline and presentation was a bit confusing, it hopped around from past to present. I personally don't care for that format but it seems to be the trend lately.

The story was a bit messy and all over the place. Things just didn't make sense and weren't believable. There were random plot lines started and abandoned, not red herrings, but plot holes.

Overall, this is not a memorable or compelling story and I would not recommend using a credit on it.

Really didn’t like this one

This book seemed like really immature narration of depressing tales of abuse that just didn’t stop. Way too dark with no interest just all cringe. Definitely do not recommend, I can’t imagine why anyone gave it 5 stars.
