The Swimmer

A Novel

De: Loreth Anne White

Narrado por: Reba Buhr

A deviously twisty novel of psychological suspense about secrets, neighbors, a need to belong, and murder by the award-winning author of The Maid’s Diary.

Socially awkward Chloe Cooper divides her time between dog walking, bartending, caring for her ailing mother, and at a safe distance, watching people and inventing the stories of their lives. Like Chloe’s new neighbors: glamorous influencer Jemma Spengler and Jemma’s husband, Adam, a renowned surgeon. They’re attractive, wealthy, and in a house of open windows, so exposed.

A move to the Pacific Northwest is supposed to be a fresh start for Jemma and Adam. It’s a renewed commitment to a marriage fractured by secrets. A chance to work through the tragic losses in their past. For Jemma, however, this new beginning also comes with an unnerving sensation that she’s being watched.

Then, on a fog-shrouded beach early in the morning, Chloe witnesses the murder of a swimmer. Her suspicions aroused, she suddenly sees her neighbors in a sinister new light. But as a detective and her partner close in, nothing is quite as it seems. Because the Spenglers are not the only ones with secrets. And Chloe isn’t the only one who’s been watching.

The twists

Really good! Well worth the time. I enjoyed the end and how there were no loose ends.

Reba Buhr's performance is perfect!

WOW. Loreth Anne White is an exceptional writer. If you've not read any of her books by now, you should start by reading The Swimmer: A Novel.
A good writer can tell a story, but a great writer can pull your emotions into the story. Great character development creates empathy where it belongs, anger when justified, anxiety, pain, and sorrow. These are just a few of the emotions invoked in me as I read The Swimmer.
Kudos to the wonderful voice talent of Reba Buhr on Audiobook. My 'internal' voice would not have done this book justice. - Mr.Bill

Suspenseful and twisted!

What a ride! Listened to this is one day! So much fun! Anything written by Lorenth is worth reading for listening to!

Great Book! Excellent character plots!

I love Loreta Anne White’s books. This psychological thriller keeps you guessing and wondering where it will lead in the end. Strange characters, unexpected situations, and outcomes. Will keep you listening, and turning pages through the night!

Great story

It was fast paced without a dull moment. I really enjoyed it. Some books read in and out of details that are boring just to get to the next good part. This book is nothing like that. I highly recommend!
