Well holy moly…

That story was not quite what I expected….and the ending!!!
Paige is grieving the death of her mother…the mother who suffered with blackouts and memory lapses. In the midst of her grief, Paige is unraveling secrets…so many secrets…and can no longer trust anyone. Lots of twists and turns that keep you guessing. Highly recommend.
Narration was excellent!

Phenomenal Psychological Thriller!

Filled with twists aplenty and a ton of suspense, mystery and action, “What Comes Before Dawn” will keep you on the edge of your seat, engaged and enthralled from beginning to jaw dropping end! The characters are fantastic! Some likable, some throughly detestable, but all brilliantly and beautifully defined. The plot, dark, mysterious and suspenseful yet easy to follow, really held my attention and I loved the hint of paranormal! What completely blew me away was the ending! No spoilers, but I didn’t see it coming! It was so creepy, and so good! Speaking of good, the narration was done beautifully, bringing not only the glorious characters, fabulous dialogue and fantastic scene setting to life, but also conveying the incredibly dark and foreboding feel of this story beautifully! This one was truly a fabulous listen on all counts! Five stars across the board!

Always guessing

This story and narration grew on me. It took a while to hook me, but once it got going, it delivered on all fronts. Mira Williams handled the suspense and pacing with great deft. She provided skillful nuances vocally between characters and truly created a cathartic world for the listener.

A bit let down

I feel like the book tried TOO hard to make you think you had it figured out so when I twist came it was kind of expected. Ok book but the end was a flop.

Tightly woven & well-written romantic suspense

What Comes Before Dawn A Mynart Mystery Thriller, my first read from author Addison Michael, was a 6-hour 38-minute/262-pageread that grabbed me and kept me reading until I finished it. “I received a free Audible copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review." The gifting of this book did not affect my opinion of it. I look forward to reading more from this author and in particular Dawn That Brings Death A Mynart Mystery Thriller, Book 2. Narrator Mira Williams reading of the book adds to its enjoyment. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

Nothing stood out ,

Just not a good story. Paige was whiny and acted like a child, stomping her feet and throwing tantrums

Brillant Storyline

This was my first time listening to this author. This murder mystery had a brillant storyline, with many twists and turns. It kept me guessing! I was surprised with the cliffhanger. Mira Williams did a fantastic job with the narration.

Wow - Great thriller

What Comes Before Dawn: A Mynart Mystery thriller by Addison Michael is a riveting story. After her mother is murdered, Paige Deffer is in danger too. She must unravel the lies and secrets that she just discovers is her entire life. No one is who they seem to be and Paige doesn’t know who to trust. This definitely is a fully engaging thriller with many twists and shocks! The narration by Mira Williams is wonderful. She brings the characters and story to life. I received a free copy of the audiobook for my honest review.
