After Dark

A Thriller

De: Minka Kent

Narrado por: Hayden Bishop, Hannah Church

She’s a pariah with a killer past. Her bid to escape it is nothing short of terrifying in a heart-pounding novel of suspense by Washington Post and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Minka Kent.

Afton Teachout has been an outcast in her small town for twenty years—ever since she was accused of murdering her mother’s lover in a blackout fit of rage. That is, if one believes the malicious lies.

Living with her grandmother, working a hotel night shift, and relying on pills to get a day’s sleep, Afton is due a little luck. It comes in the form of an unexpected financial windfall. With her newfound wealth, Afton sets a secret plan in motion to help her only friend, Sydney, flee a toxic husband. But the best intentions soon spin out of control.

Afton is getting unsettling calls from a restricted number, and someone has been lingering outside her home. As Sydney’s troubled marriage comes into focus, so does Afton’s past. Her second chance—for herself and for Sydney—isn’t what she dreamed of at all. In fact, it’s becoming a nightmare.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Even readers who see the murder's inescapable solution coming long in advance will be deeply shaken when it arrives.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Fast paced thriller

Although you kind of figure it out towards the end, it’s still a good story. There was one unexpected part of it that was surprising. Overall, good story!

I loved this book! More than other Minka Kent books.

I usually enjoy books by this author but this was exceptionally good. I thought the narrators were perfect for their characters. The story was interesting and the ending was very worth the listen.

Surprising in the Best ways

This was all around a great story. the twists were original, the characters rich & interesting, and the narration worked well. I was pleasantly surprised. Fun listen.

Love the storyline.

The narrator mispronounced so many medications and words it was painful! Do your research before you produce a book! As a narrator myself, I cringed at every mispronunciation. It wrecked the experience for me. Love the author, though.

Pleasantly Surprised

Really enjoying Minka’s books… wasn’t sure I’d like them but was pleasantly surprised and now I’m in a Minka book devour mode.
