Behind Closed Doors

De: Carol Wyer

Narrado por: Bronwen Price

Two kidnappings, thirty years apart. Can Stacey face her own dark past in order to save her stepdaughter?

When Stacey’s ex-husband turns up on her doorstep begging her to help save his kidnapped thirteen-year-old daughter, Lyra, the terror is all too familiar. Stacey’s own violent kidnapping thirty years ago was never solved, and while a severe case of amnesia spares her from recalling the specific horrors, she remembers enough…

Stacey knows her father never paid the ransom—she has the missing pinkie finger to prove it. She knows she was only saved because of an anonymous tip-off to the police. And she knows her captor was never apprehended.

Lyra’s kidnappers have made it clear the police must not get involved. But Stacey can’t shake the eerie similarities between the two cases, and she’ll use whatever she can, from her journalistic powers to her shady contacts, to save Lyra from the same nightmare. Desperate to find any link between Lyra’s abduction and her own, Stacey forces herself to revisit her forgotten, traumatic past for clues.

But can she make sense of the terrible secrets she unearths in time to save Lyra? And if she does, is she ready to face her own tormentor?

Reseñas de la Crítica

“A twisty whodunit wrapped in a thriller that will keep you behind closed doors until the final, shocking revelation.”—Lee Goldberg, author of the Eve Ronin series

Ends up good.

This I believe starts out a little slow. Anyway, Stacy is the daughter of a judge, Henry. She ends up kidnapped for a ransom. The kidnapper or kidnappers cut her hair, finger, and even a piece of her ear to be sent to her father. However, her father still does not pay the ransom. In her adulthood, she is divorced. And her ex-husband, Jack comes to her with the same problem of his daughter, Lyra being kidnapped. He doesn't want the police involved. But he does not want anyone's help at all. He simply wants to pay the ransom. This sets off a chain of events that ends up revealing who and why she was kidnapped in her past. There are so many twists and turns.

good

liked the story the narrators were good. I will look for the next book or another story.

Like a bad meal

This story was so disgustingly contrived, Ill written, and badly narrated I can't believe I listened to the entire thing. It was like a bad meal from a chef who you'd previously enjoyed so you slog through it, tamping down the nausea of the taste. Don't waste your time or money on this one. I'll rethink before buying another

Slow and dull

I've gone through 4.5 hours with this. The challenge was not falling asleep, which I failed a few times. Most of her other titles I liked. This one is not one
