Night Watcher

De: Daphne Woolsoncroft

Narrado por: Helen Laser, Will Collyer, Daphne Woolsoncroft

Nola Strate, a late night call-in radio host in Portland, Oregon, listens to stories of hauntings and cryptic sightings for a living. But one foggy, wet evening, when a caller describes an eerie scene that triggers memories of Nola’s escape from a serial killer years before, she becomes fearfully aware that he’s back to finish what he started.

Nola Strate is being watched, again.

After an encounter with a notorious serial killer in the Pacific Northwest as a child, Nola has grown up and tried her best to forget her traumatizing night with The Hiding Man. She installed security cameras outside her Oregon home, never spoke of her experience, and now hosts Night Watch, a popular radio call-in show her semi‑famous father used to run. When coincidences lead Nola to believe that she is being stalked, and a caller on Night Watch has a live incident with an intruder in the caller's home—the description of whom is chillingly familiar—Nola is convinced that The Hiding Man has resurfaced and is coming for her.

With a mysterious next‑door neighbor lurking in the shadows, more people getting hurt, the police not taking her concerns seriously, and evidence pointing towards her own father, Nola decides to become, like her listeners, a Night Watcher herself, and uncover the monster behind The Hiding Man's mask.

10/10

Such a good book! I couldn’t quit listening. The voice actors were also great! Can’t recommend enough, especially if you are a true crime junkie.

Creepy

I’m a sucker for a serial killer thriller! This book kept you guessing and your toes. It was slow-paced but in a good way that built suspense and tension allowing you to truly feel the emotions of the characters and their experiences. Very mysterious and a bit creepy but, that’s to be expected. The author’s note was great in giving insight into the narrative and why she decided to write this book. I was able to get through this in one day because it keeps you wanting to read from the very start.

Full Circle

I enjoyed Daphne’s first book! I have been a long time listener of several of her podcasts including Nightwatch and Going West! It was awesome full circle moments when “Elder’s coffee” made an appearance as well as the last quote- “don’t be a stranger.” The book felt like Daphne was on the podcast telling a true story. Just when you think you know who the killer is, your mind shifts and it’s just not who you expected! Great job Daphne!

Not As Scary As Expected!

Based on all the book discussions and reviews from Goodreads and podcasts galore, I really thought the story would be terrifying and cause me to be looking over my shoulder while trying to enjoy the audiobook… A book that would bring on nightmares and make you check that every single door is locked. The story was narrated well and did keep me intrigued, but I honestly can not say it was anything special and worth all the hype. It’s certainly not a psychological thriller nor does it provide enough suspense.

Wow!!!

I can not believe this is your first book!! It was amazing. Kept me guessing the entire time. A good mix of suspense with a touch of romance! Can’t wait for the next one!
