I Know Everything

Adler and Dwyer

By: Matthew Farrell

Narrated by: Cynthia Farrell

A psychiatrist grapples with his own sanity as murder evidence mounts against him.

Police investigator Susan Adler is ready to close the book on a deadly car accident, but after the medical examiner discovers evidence of foul play, she knows she has a murder on her hands. The victim was the wealthy wife of Randall Brock, a renowned psychiatrist who treats patients with disturbing, brutal fantasies. And just like that, Susan’s got a suspect.

Randall has a violent past but knows he didn’t kill his wife. In the midst of his crushing grief, Randall receives a visit from a stranger with information to share about his wife’s death. But there’s a catch: in exchange for the stranger’s information, Randall must reveal dark secrets he’s kept hidden for years. As this shady figure applies more pressure and Susan closes in, Randall begins to doubt himself, clinging desperately to the pieces of his sanity.

Revelations and suspicious coincidences send shock waves through the investigation, and circumstances spin out of control. Susan must race to put it all together before it’s too late - before the next murder strikes too close to home.

What it is we do

I don’t normally review anything, which is a bit hypocritical because I depend on the reviews of others to guide me when choosing a book. This book however, is the first mystery I’ve read in a long time that I couldn’t easily figure out long before the end.
My choice of bad guys changed wildly, like a ribbon blowing in a strong wind, bouncing back and forth and then back again as I listened. This is a good book, the story is strong, well written and believable. The narrative is good and easy to understand. No over pronouncing or “bodily noises” to make listening to the story akin to listening to fingernails on a chalkboard.
Well, that’s all I have to say about that.
No spoilers here, You’ll have to read it for Yourself....5 stars from me.

nothing new or unpredictable and the narration....

I'm not saying I could do better as a narrator, but I know a New York accent from a Boston one for one thing. And the dramatization was so over acted. is this meant to be a telanovela??? Story wise, it had a decent premise but I predicted the end 7 hours before the end. it would probably make a decent easy beach read in print. I wouldn't recommend as an audible.

good story line

I would have given a much higher rating if the narrator hadn't tried to do multiple voices. I found her effort to read in men's voices very unpleasant and distracting. I actually enjoyed her narration when she wasn't changing her voice. Story line was good and suspenseful.

nice thriller maybe too long

It is a good thriller, well written. I believe it could be improved shortening a little. the second part is a little bit slow

I really liked the narrator but the story was very predictable for me personally, which took the mystery out of it.

Excellent

Even as an audible listen, I could not 'put down'. The pacing is fantastic.

Great storyline with a twist, great thriller!

Loved it. Finished it in couple if days. Excellent storyline, never expected the end. Well worth reading this book.

LOVED THIS BOOK!!!

This was my first time with this author and I absolutely loved this book! The narrator did a great job as well. Just when I thought I figured it out... I had to think again. I definitely recommend this book!!!!

Okay

A bit cliché, with a few overdone tropes. The plot wasn't very inventive and the clues sometimes too obvious, but the author still managed to keep it suspenseful, which says a lot. The characters were well written and likeable. Overall, an enjoyable and light read (listening). The narrator was a bit flat sometimes, but once I speeded her up to 1,25x it was better.

feels like a draft for CSI: SVU

if your a fan of CSI shows this is the book/audio book for you. starts and finishes just like a cop crime drama you watch to just pass the time. not terrible but nothing incredible either. good for listening at work or relaxing.
