Resumen del Editor

A brilliant psychologist faces the secrets and lies of her own dark past in a shocking novel of suspense by the Washington Post and Amazon Charts bestselling author of A Familiar Sight.

“Gretchen...What have you done?”

Psychologist and criminologist Dr. Gretchen White, top consultant for the Boston PD, has solved countless cases—but never her own. Since the age of eight, she has lived her life thinking she killed her aunt. After all, she was found standing over the body, clutching a bloody knife. Most people, including Detective Patrick Shaughnessy, believe the little sociopath got away with murder. Thirty years later, Detective Lauren Marconi wants to prove them wrong.

When plucking at the threads of the past unravels a decades-old case tied to the White family, both Lauren and Gretchen grapple with the question, What if Gretchen really is guilty? As old secrets come to light and Gretchen’s lifelong grip on her darkest impulses threatens to erode, Shaughnessy is there watching, waiting for her to lose control one more time.

Everyone thinks they know what happened that night. But the truth is beyond what anyone imagines—even Gretchen herself.

Disappointing

I loved the first book in this series and was eagerly looking forward to this one, but everything that made the first book fantastic is missing in this book. It gives a good back story for Dr. White, but not a particularly believable or rational one. The narrators were excellent, it is just the story was way below what I was expecting from this author. Giving it 3 stars is due to the fact that it is well written technically, it just doesn't have the tension or depth of book 1. The narrators made it worth listening to.
I would say the author is batting .500 on this series and if another book drops I would be interested, maybe she has something in mind that I need to see in a subsequent book. As it stands, this book is not good.

Just Enough Twists

There were just enough twists to keep this interesting.

It was interesting to get the full backstory on the character from book 1.

Overall an enjoyable listen.

Gripping story.

Great characters and spectacular story with twists and turns that keep the listener engaged throughout.

Another amazing book

This book caught my attention from the very beginning and kept me guessing to the end.. The narration is great and captivating. I would say the whole series is a must read.

Great plot, I was engaged the whole way through

I really like the story and the plot, the characters are wonderful. The only thing I would say is that the author was quite repetitive from the first book in certain sections to the point where it was literally a copy and paste of a whole paragraph. That said it didn’t take away from the unique story, in this book compared to Last. I will definitely read the next one.

A Disappointments

convoluted story-line, too rapid wrap-up, too many added and poorly sketched out added characters. was really looking forward to this book, will not read anymore, sadly.

Fantastic!

I really enjoyed this book the one prior to it. Sometimes, Gretchen’s struggle with her thoughts and in her mind, the restraining of her actions were very strange to hear. What do you mean at all in anger think thoughts that ultimately with shame us if we were to be carried out? The author does a fantastic job with this book. The twisting and turning seeking answers is absolutely done. The characters were unbelievable, and the fact you can actually see these rich & entitled people living like this, it’s a must read! The narration was terrific also.

Thoroughly riveting!

I love this character! It is so refreshing to have a female character not holding back from her inner most thoughts… sociopath or not, I love Dr. Gretchen White.

Shocking

This story was such a great follow-up to the first book and the characters that were introduced there. I don't know what I was expecting to have actually happened in Gretchen's childhood but this was a total revelation about her backstory and provided great insight into her complex character.

Gripping

This performance was fantastic. The story was great but very focusing on “psychopathic” tendencies. A little overplayed and dramatic, in my opinion. I still was able to enjoy the story though.
