De: Brianna Labuskes

Narrado por: Kate Marcin, Chris Ciulla

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.

So-so

Mediocre story and performance. Decent who done it. Lots of he said, she said.

Interesting plot twist

Writing was clunky and cliche at times, especially with the protagonist’s inner and actual dialogue considering her psychological diagnosis. I found myself predicting and rolling my eyes at times. But I did enjoy the overall story and the twist at the end was interesting.
Performance was robotic to me mush of the time, almost like AI.

Would recommend.

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.
