Winner, Earphones Award 2020

Five long-missing children are about to be returned.

It was summer in the mountains when five small children vanished from their nursery school picnic. The heat was stifling that day, the tinkle of an ice-cream van in the air....

Three-and-a-half years later, in the dead of winter, the children are returned to their families...one by one.

All except for Ivy—the granddaughter of Homicide Detective Kate Wakeland. The other four children say Ivy is dead.

Speculation grows that the mysterious abductor is enacting a cruel revenge plot due to a murderer that Kate put in jail years before.

Kate isn't sure what to believe. But one thing is certain—she's about to begin the battle of her life. When the children were first stolen, she was prevented from investigating the case.

But now, Kate will be relentless in uncovering the identity of the abductor and discovering what happened to Ivy.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Lee's delivery of both the narrative and the dialogue is flawless." (AudioFile Magazine)

So many showers

I enjoyed this book. The story was longer than it needed to be but still good. The narration was good but one thing that puzzled me was how the detective had to shower so much and how she had the time to do so. I will go on to the next book in the series.

Wonderful Story! Stellar Narration! Wow!

I really enjoyed this book! Their are many characters, and the narrator brings them all to life! Great mystery story! I really loved the main character, Kate.

Narrator

This narrator is just… yuck. It might just be me but her voice is annoying and she just drones on. No personality given to different characters. Love Anni Taylor books this narrator made it hard to keep listening.

Great listen

I thought the story was very good with a few surprises. I like the main character, and I really like Caroline Lee...I look for books read by her.

I had this book in my wishlist for a while, then audible had this on the 2 for 1 sale so I decided to get it. It was pretty good! The twist at the end-- I definitely did NOT see that coming! I think it was slightly a slow start, but once it got going it was pretty good. It had multiple twists and turns throughout the book. Would recommend!
