The Inmate

De: Freida McFadden

Narrado por: Leslie Howard

There are three rules Brooke Sullivan must follow as a new nurse practitioner at a men’s maximum-security prison:

1) Treat all prisoners with respect.

2) Never reveal any personal information.

3) Never EVER become too friendly with the inmates.

But none of the staff at the prison knows Brooke has already broken the rules. Nobody knows about her intimate connection to Shane Nelson, one of the penitentiary’s most notorious and dangerous inmates.

And they certainly don’t know that Shane was Brooke’s high school sweetheart—the star quarterback who is now spending the rest of his life in prison for a series of grisly murders. Or that Brooke's testimony was what put him there.

But Shane knows.

And he will never forget.

Wow

All I seem to be able to say is “wow” and “oh my God!!” Lots of unexpected twists and turns.

Only thing that really bugged me - why I took off 1 star on performance - is the pronunciation of Penitentiary. The “e-air-e” she says at the end each time was like nails on a chalkboard to me and the word is used a LOT!!! Otherwise I would’ve just ignored it. Tempted to count how many times it’s said now. 😂

Buy it now!!

Ok, I had to drive 970 miles alone yesterday…and let me say, the 8 hours listening to this book literally flew by!! Like I would have circled the block to hear the ending even after driving all day. This author is an INCREDIBLE story teller! I’m literally going to buy all her books. I’ve read/listens to 4 so far, and every one is EXCELLENT!

Good story

Slow start but picked up and enjoyed the twists. Narrator did a great job. Suspenseful.

Main character is obnoxious

The main character has horrible instincts and no sense of self preservation considering what she went through in the beginning and the way she comes to conclusions over anything is painful. Couldn’t get past the way it was read by the actor either.

Trust your gut!

I loved this book because it’s exactly the kind of entertainment I need right now. However, of many gripes, I would say my main problem was that over time I stopped having confidence in the main character’s judgement.
