Buried Deep

De: Margot Hunt

Narrado por: Therese Plummer

In this pulse-pounding short thriller for fans of Big Little Lies and The Last Mrs. Parrish, Maggie Cabot refuses to sit by idly as police re-open an investigation into the mysterious death of a woman her husband used to know.

After two decades in a near-perfect marriage, Maggie and James Cabot are enjoying their first year as empty-nesters in their charming Florida suburb, until two detectives arrive at their front door and change their lives forever.

The remains of a young woman have been found at a campsite in the Florida Keys. Hannah Nilsson, only 21 at the time of her disappearance, was last seen on a camping trip with a group of friends—including James, who dated Hannah long before he and Maggie ever met. Shocked and heartbroken, everyone on the trip said they assumed Hannah had wandered off toward shore, intoxicated from a long night of partying, and drowned. But the discovery of her body 25 years later, half a mile away from the campsite and buried six feet deep, makes it clear that her death was not accidental.

As the police dig back into the case, Maggie begins her own investigation, desperate to piece together the truth and clear her husband’s name once and for all.

Kept me interested

Listed to it while working. Made my day go by faster. It was a good story. I liked the ending.

Very good and easy listen

Enjoyed it very much. Probably my best 2 originals choices so far since joining Audible.

Entertaining with thought invoking ending.

Entertaining with thought invoking ending. The author does not appear to be looking for a thriller twist as much as the "what would we do" and react in that moment we find out the love of our life has a dark past.

Not the best payoff

Unsatisfactory ending. Was frankly rather disgusted by it. The narrator did a lovely job, though.

Those of you who've already read/listened to the book in full (my condolences by the way) will understand just how bewildering it was for me to finally hear after the dramatic final reveal of the truth "Oh, love, that's not how it works." only to hop into the final chapter and realize that, apparently, that is exactly how it works? Alright then.

Entertaining

Quick & easy listen. I was entertained and invested in finding out what happened to Hannah! The ending through me for a loop, so kudos on that! Narration was good. Wish it was longer, with more detail.
