Publisher's summary

The next audiobook of psychological suspense and obsession from the authors of the blockbuster best-seller The Wife Between Us.

Seeking women ages 18-32 to participate in a study on ethics and morality. Generous compensation. Anonymity guaranteed.

When Jessica Farris signs up for a psychology study conducted by the mysterious Dr. Shields, she thinks all she’ll have to do is answer a few questions, collect her money, and leave.

Question number one: Could you tell a lie without feeling guilt?

But as the questions grow more and more intense and invasive and the sessions become outings where Jess is told what to wear and how to act, she begins to feel as though Dr. Shields may know what she’s thinking...and what she’s hiding.

Question number two: Have you ever deeply hurt someone you care about?

As Jess’s paranoia grows, it becomes clear that she can no longer trust what in her life is real and what is one of Dr. Shields’ manipulative experiments. Caught in a web of deceit and jealousy, Jess quickly learns that some obsessions can be deadly.

Question number three: Should a punishment always fit the crime?

From the authors of the blockbuster best-seller The Wife Between Us comes an electrifying new audiobook about doubt, passion, and just how much you can trust someone.

Almost excellent

Although I am very familiar with books that jump around from past to present, or with different narrators, or perspectives , this book was very difficult to follow at times when it wasn't 'Jess' speaking . But, aside from that, the book was definitely a page turner that held my interest and flew by, and the concept was also original. So, in spite of some confusion (which may not have been there if I was reading instead of listening) I can recommend this book for anyone who enjoys a psychological thriller

Awesome

This book I could not put down Excellent excellent excellent excellent what a great story

Great for A Road Trip

An Anonymous Girl is superbly written. It is a fun thriller that keeps the reader engaged and rooting for the protagonist. This book made several long car trips fly by. Not hard to follow so perfect for a road trip.

Great Story

The book itself was awesome and the last few hours I was seriously on the edge of my seat waiting to see how the story would turn out. My only negative was I hated the narration. For both characters it was stiff and monotone and didn't get the point across like they were trying to.

good listen

it was a slow start but mid way picked up. readers were excellent. also the 2 voices were confusing at first of why the difference.

Excellent

very well written, terrific performance, kept me spellbound, would recommend very highly to every adult

Great!

This book held my interest all the way to the end! A very good read

The book was “alright”

Book was fine. It entertained me but wasn’t anything that great.

Story was easy to follow.

It was a bit long and somewhat predictable

Great Start, Weak Finish

The story was well-written and the characters well-defined. But the ending betrayed them all. Any character as narcissistic, methodical and controlled as Dr Shields would never have had such a weak conclusion. Thomas, who is portrayed as handsome, intelligent and quite adept with ladies, ends up a cowardly, sniveling slip of a man, afraid of his own wife. These 180 degree turns belittle the victory of our heroine in the end. An otherwise engaging story with a terribly unrealistic, and worse, an UNexciting ending.

Delicious story!

This is the second book I’ve listened to that these wonderful authors have crafted. I love the alternating chapters. I imagined they took turns writing them, although I’m not sure of their technique.
