Umm, disjointed.

I am a huge liv Constantine fan, but this book had way too many random things going on that didn’t seem to do anything for the plot. Very disconnected and just a bunch of random characters that didn’t really flow.

Nice twists...quick lunchtime listen.

Nice twists...quick lunchtime listen. Can't go wrong with the LC duo. Great interesting. storyline.

decent not great

This is a short book. Less than 50 pages. About an hour in audio. The first few pages are past leading up to why she has come to the restaurant to say goodbye. She caught her boyfriend cheating on her. He kicked her out of the house. She is lonely and depressed. Her dad was her everything. Her boyfriend had kept her going. It's a lot of background and character building for such a short story, but it worked amazingly.

The twist is incredible but far-fetched. It was mildly predictable. It's worth the read because it's short, but if it had been stretched out with the same ending, I probably would have passed.

Well written, quick read. A good jump start when you're in a slump.

Everywhere You Look. Story was great. Plot very interesting but kind of sad at the end finding out the truth.

The overall story line was interesting and sad for the lead character. Maybe all will go well for their futures.
The narrator sounded like a little girl. She would be great for children’s books/audios.

That was great!

Short story to pass a lunch hour and little more. It was packed with secrets and intrigue. I have to say I enjoyed the way this story turned out. It had an engaging storyline and and a great narrator.

I tagged this as spoiler to explain why I didn’t

Rating this short story is difficult for me. I enjoy everything Liv Constantine (or as I say The Constantine Sisters) writes and I enjoyed listening to the audiobook.

At times I found myself talking back to the narrator. As a graduate of Law&Order law school with a PhD in SVU, even I know that kidnapping has a statute of limitations. Granted, this fact would negate the whole story, but I bet most thriller readers know this too. One of the three characters who knew the backstory had to have watched the shows. Also lawyers have confidentiality, even if their clients admit to crimes. The individual could have easily sought legal advice any way along the way.

The lack of legal research is the reason for four not five stars.

Not even

As I understand it, Liv Constantine is a pen name combined by two sisters. it appears only one of them wrote this. it's sorely lacking the other one.

Interesting

Interesting story of love and the lengths a parent will go to for their child. Amazing how all the pieces fall together.

Amazing

Liv Constantine is my top favorite authors. This book was a quick read but was very enjoyable. Definitely recommend

Ridiculous story, stupid choices

What a mess. Improbable decisions and unlikable characters. It just didn’t make sense. Don’t waste your time on this one.
