One Dark Night

Ivy Bishop Mystery Thriller, Book 5

By: Alex Sigmore

Narrated by: Kelli Tager

One dark night changed everything. Now Ivy Bishop must face the truth she's spent a lifetime outrunning.

Haunted by the fallout of a case gone tragically wrong, Detective Ivy Bishop is forced to confront the one mystery she's never been able to solve—her own. When new evidence resurfaces about the night her family was destroyed, Ivy is pulled into a web of secrets that stretches deeper than she ever imagined. But the truth won't set her free. It might even break her.

As she investigates the shadows of her past, Ivy is also reckoning with a failure she can't forgive: the young victim she couldn't save. With the weight of two tragedies threatening to consume her, Ivy must decide if she's still the protector she set out to be—or just another ghost left behind by the darkness.

Some wounds never heal. Some answers only lead to more pain. But Ivy Bishop isn't done fighting.

Not yet.

Entertaining!

Interesting twist I didn’t see coming. Not your usual bad guy! Different than most thrillers out there lately

I'm on the fence about this series.

I really liked the series in the begining. I thought Ivy didn't put enough effort in to finding out what happened to her family throughout the series. But I will say this, these books had the #1 Who #2 What #3 When and #4 Where. BUT #5 Why was so stupid!!
In all of the books I wanted to know "Why"?
When the "Why was reviewed I thought WTH??? That's just a dumb reason.
Other than that I thought it was a pretty good story.

Love this series

Loved this whole series. Couldn't put the books down and I am sad it is over

phenomenal crime procedural/personal mystery series!!

I gobbled this series up!! I couldn't stop thinking about it and finding ways to sneak in more listening.

I also reserve my 5 star ratings for geniuenly excellent books/series and this one hit all the marks.

The build up to the final conclusion in book 5 throughout books 1-4 was masterful! There was an individual and intriguing plot in each book while the underlying long game plot kept moving ahead.

Great character writing, development and growth too.

Will read anything else this author decides to gift to the world.

Could have been better, but ending was satisfying.

(First Review)I am halfway done with this last in this series. While I have been moderately happy with this series, and while I am only halfway done with this last book, I am finding this book unreasonably glib, simple and frankly, dumb, It has repetitive sentences and really such bizarre story configurations that are unbelievable and make me roll my eyes. I think the author got really lazy finishing this book, or she/he handed it to someone else to finish while they went on vacation, and the substitute had a heyday writing this ridiculous book. I will finish it just to see where it ends, but I have a feeling I will be returning the book.
(Second Review) I was happy with the last part of this final book in this series. I was not when I first began it, however. If you can put aside your doubts when beginning the book, you will be happy you finished the series. I am now a big fan of Alex Sigmore and his other books, so I feel this one book is the exception to the excellent writing I have enjoyed from him.
