The 7 She Saw

Blake Wilder FBI Mystery Thriller, Book 1

De: Elle Gray

Narrado por: Brittany Goodwin

Throughout history and in just about every religion the number seven has held significance. And in the small town of Briar Glen the secret of the seven will forever haunt you.

Blake Wilder is plagued with nightmares from her dark and twisted past.

Fourteen years ago, her entire family was taken from her.

Her parents murdered and her sister taken.

At the age of 22, Blake joined the FBI in hopes of one day discovering the truth behind the mysteries of her own past.

The past few years since joining the FBI, Blake has seen many gruesome and nightmare-inducing cases.

Now, she faces what may be the most grim and mysterious case of her career. A case that will take her to Briar Glen.

Briar Glen is a sleepy and affluent town on the coast of Washington. But this idyllic seaside town is far from what it appears to be. As Blake digs deeper into the case to unravel the strange mystery behind the three female victims, she finds that little is as it seems.

People are not who they say they are, and there are killers who lurk in the shadows. The more she learns about the town, the more she realizes that there is an evil darkness that underlies everything in this place.

This is a town built on blood and paid for with human lives.

There's no playing it safe when you’re hunting monsters.

And there are so many here in Briar Glen that one false move could be Blake's last.

Great story line

The premise of the story was very good and required just a little more fleshing out before the story ended.
The ending was unrealistic; if an agent had been shot; back up would have been boots on the ground and Blake facing the cult leader in a show down by herself would not have happened or at the very least backup would have been on hand and some of the cult people may have survived.
The epilogue being used to add more interest surrounding the mystery of Blake's family; seems a little off that the person she feels an interest for has an hidden motives.

Excellent crime solving mysteries!

These books are well written, intriguing, keep my interest, and I want to listen to the next one immediately! I have thoroughly enjoyed the first 3 I’ve listened to. Please get the whole series and any other books this author has written.

Can't get past the narrator

I'll try reading the book. A great story can be ruined when narrated by the wrong person. That's what did it for me. Just couldn't listen past the first hour or so. I can't even comment on the story itself although my feeling is it was taking too long to get to the point.

Disappointed.

The story sounded really great and started off with a bang, but then it just sort of fell flat. The narrator's stilted and clumsy reading manner made the banter seem contrived and awkward. Different narration might make a big difference. I'm disappointed.

meh, just meh

This is the kind of book that tells you, rather than shows you. This leaves the characters feeling one dimensional, and makes it hard to get invested in the story.

Almost every discussion of the MC's supposed best friend focused on how she's easy, over and over. Did you get that she's slutty? Super slutty? Did you pick up on that yet?

I just can't bring myself to give the rest of the series a shot.

Fun listen overall

A fun listen overall. Random word mispronunciations were distracting from being emerged in storyline. Story good company.

predictable

Too much extra dialog and completely predictable. Seems like a first time author, because there was no depth.

good listen without too much violence and sexual

did not like the ending. who was the dr.? was he from occult or government

Great Book

Awesome
I loved this. I’ll think I’ll become addicted to Blake Wilder. Very interesting plot.

Decent Series start

Good story and enjoyable listen. I didn't find anything too dragged out like some novels. This one kept me interested and glad that there is more to this series. I look forward to the next in the series which is already in my library.
