The Bluff

A Thriller

De: Bonnie Traymore

Narrado por: Meghan Kelly

Wife. Widow. Murderer? What do you have to lose, Kate? That’s what my future husband Ryan asked as we stood on the bluff, gazing out at Lake Michigan. Turns out, the answer is everything.

After a whirlwind romance, I left Manhattan for the quiet promise of Crest Lake. I thought my biggest challenges would be finding a job and adjusting to small-town life. I was wrong. My marriage unraveled. And a year ago, Ryan died in a car accident still shrouded in suspicion. Now my once-idyllic lakefront home is in crisis. The bluff is crumbling. Property values are plummeting. Neighbors are at war over how to save their homes.

Then, on the night of a critical shoreline vote, my biggest rival turns up dead. And suddenly, all eyes are on me. I know what they’re thinking.

But I have secrets of my own—and I’ll do whatever it takes to keep them buried. Because in Crest Lake, nothing stays hidden for long. And the truth might destroy me long before the bluff does.

Perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, Daniel Hurst, Sarah Pekkanen, and Lisa Jewell.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Gripping and full of surprises, THE BLUFF is a clever psychological suspense with layered characters and an atmospheric setting. Traymore masterfully ratchets up the tension little-by-little until the surprising, explosive end."—Tracey Devlyn, USA Today bestselling author

“Traymore is a master of layered tension, and she left me guessing until the last page.”— Noelle W.Ihli, #1 bestselling author of Gray After Dark

Terrible narration

The story was ok, a bit all over the place. The narrator was awful though…sing song, slow, odd spacing and volume at times. Hard to listen to the whole thing.

The Bluff

What a well balanced story. It has all the perfect hidden secrets that slowly come out. I also loved how she used her education to learn more about her husband’s behavior. Great characters as well and I loved the ending! I think we all love a good karma ending. For me it was a fast listen. Once I was invested I needed to finish! The narration was spot on. She did an amazing job with the cast.

Amazing Story and Ending!

Wow!  Bonnie Traymore has done it again, but this time you just won’t believe it when you get to the end of this book!  I love all the previous books I have listened to before this one, but this one is my new favorite! Once I started listening, I couldn’t stop until I finished.  This is a must listen book with lots of action, twists and turns and total shock along the way.  Meghan Kelly does a fantastic job at narrating this thriller with all the different voices and emotions.  I can’t wait for Bonnie’s next book!

Story kept me hooked

The story was compelling but it's so hard to get past how the narrator speaks. I pushed the narration speed to 1.35x which helped some. it's unfortunate because I enjoy Traymore's stories.

The ugly jealousy and violence: including murder and blackmail

The drawn out emphasis on the small clue left on the boat that capsized and killed the boat owner.
