LOVED this book.

I’m always happy to find new books from authors I love so I was excited to read this. I gave this a five star. It was well written, characters were well developed, and it kept me engaged throughout. Great book!

Last Seen

This psychological thriller book started off good. I was immediately pulled in by the story and couldn’t put it down! Kept me guessing until the end, It’s a really well put together story with plenty of twists, secrets and mystery to keep you turning the pages.

Halley James looses her job, her marriage is over, and she moves back to Marchburg, Virginia to care for her dad after he had an emergency surgery. Halley finds out her mother didn’t die in a car accident like her dad made her believe when she was little but was murdered by her sister. Halley goes chasing for answers where her sister was last seen in Brockville, Tennessee, because she wants to find out why and what happened to her sister because she doesn’t remember them or what actually happened. The more she keeps searching the more she uncovers secrets, disappearances, and a twisted reality. Highly recommend this thriller 

Amazing!

I loved this audiobook - narrators <two of my favorite > led me on a journey, what just happened! that is when I know it has hit its mark. I hope there is a follow on Soon!!!

What lurks in the night

Overall, this was a good read. The story had lots of twists and turns and just when you thought you knew who it was, you didn’t. Leaves you on a little bit of a cliffhanger. Can’t wait to see if there’s another.

Twist and turns

Very good read, you think you figured it out but there's another twist. I really liked this

Thriller

Wow… twist and turns in every chapter! Keeps you guessing…who is the monster??!! GREAT READ.

I could t stop listening

Really really good! I was hooked through the whole story! I hope we get a part two. Years after the discovery…. Well no spoilers… but an AMAZING Read! Def recommend!

Good story, but…

I absolutely hated the male narrator’s voice and the way he “overacted” his part. I had to listen on 1.5 speed just to get through his parts. It detracted from the story horrendously.

It held my attention.

I was a bit creeped out at times but I loved that I didn’t figure it out as fast as I normally do. I enjoyed the narration.
