Where the Blame Lies

De: Mia Sheridan

Narrado por: Teddy Hamilton, Callie Dalton

At 19 years old, college student Josie Stratton was kidnapped by a madman and held shackled for 10 months in an abandoned warehouse before she finally escaped her hellish prison.

Eight years later, when the body of a young woman is found chained in the basement of a vacant house, Cincinnati Police Detective Zach Copeland is instantly reminded of the crime committed against Josie Stratton. Zach was just a rookie on the perimeter of that case, but he's never forgotten the traumatized woman with the haunted eyes.

As more information emerges, the crimes take on an even more sinister similarity. But Josie's attacker died by suicide. Does the city have a copycat on its hands? A killer who picked up where the original perpetrator left off? Or are they facing something far more insidious?

Josie has spent the last eight years attempting to get her life back on track, but now there's a very real chance she could be the unknown suspect's next target. As Zach vows to keep her safe, and Josie finds herself responding to him in a way she hasn't responded to any man in almost a decade, the investigation takes on an even more complex edge of danger.

As past and present collide, Josie and Zach are thrust toward a shocking and chilling truth. A revelation that threatens not only Josie's life, but everything she's been fighting so desperately to reclaim.

Where the Blame Lies

I try to always go in blind to book, it makes it more I don’t know entertaining. It is just how I like to listen. Anyways this book threw me for a loop.

At first, I didn’t know if the narration of Josie was going to work for me but once I got into it I got it. Callie is a pretty great narrator after what I just listened to I am a fan for life. Obviously they picked just the right narrators for this book. I mean Teddy was totally Zach.

This isn’t a book for the faint of hearts, the subject matter is disturbing and it had my heart racing a few times. I thought I knew who it was but I didn’t. I mean I REALLY thought I knew!!
I didn’t expect to tear up or even have a few of the watery buggers fall. The selflessness, the strength I don’t know that I could have done any of it. Great book, incredible story, and wonderful characters.

Love strong women with unquenchable spirit

I have so been waiting for a good book. After a long line of *meh* this was refreshing. I cried and loved Josie. I am ambivalent about Cooper/Charlie. In a way, I couldn't be mad at him. He found a way to stick it the whole broken system that did not protect him when he couldn't protect himself. Believe me I know that's not fiction. I know first hand there are TODAY people who are allowed to have children that shouldn't. Zack was the definition of the perfect man. Great story! I was invested! Going straight into next one same author.

Overall great listen!

Some parts are difficult but loved that she’s a “warrior” who never wavered! Narration good too!

Another Mia Sheridan hit!

I’m a sucker for a suspenseful book with a little romance and Mia Sheridan delivers once again. This was so good I’m sad it’s over.

Wow!

This was such a gripping listen! The story hooked me from page one! Very intense.

Great book

3rd person narrated books are SOOO hard for me to listen to. Usually it is a huge turn off but since I couldn't find a good mystery/thriller/romance in the first person I settled with this one and I'm happy I did. The narrator's were amazing they really brought the book to life and made it easy to distinguish the different characters. The story itself was well written and flowed very nicely. I would recommend this book but maybe look up trigger warnings first. The only thing that would make this book better ( in my opinion) is if it was written in first person.

Plot was thickkkk

The plot had me guessing left & right! There was enough romance with die if you touch her vibes. Im not normally a thriller mystery person but I love this book!

Mystery, Suspense, Sadness, Healing

This was a great listen, sometimes it was a bit tough though.
Josie had been kidnapped at 19, brutally treated for 10 months, chained to a wall, raped, gave birth alone, starved. Horrible horrible thoughts. She escapes, her captor is dead. Nine years later there is a copy cat? Not everything is what it seems in this thriller. The heartache that Josie must endure over and over could gut you, she really suffered. She also learns to overcome. The narration was excellent.

The twists and turns

The twists and turns were endless. If you're looking for a story that will keep you on the edge of your seat:look no further. This is the one for you. And as a bonus you'll hold onto the most beautiful love story Ever!

Wow

I love all your books, they are amazing each one is so different, but so entertaining they grab you from the first page to the last all the emotions each book makes you feel is wonderful. You are an amazing writer thank you.
