Publisher's summary

A young woman, out jogging in the woods, finds a body.

Eleanor Blackwood discovers a woman's body in the same spot in the woods where her mother was strangled eighteen years previously. But before the police can get there, the body vanishes.

Is Eleanor's disturbed mind playing tricks on her again, or has her mother's killer resurfaced? And what does the number on the dead woman's forehead signify?

Somewhat entertaining

The summary of the book pretty much tells you what you need to know. A few more bodies do show up during the story though. Most of the time when reviewers complain about narration I don't find it as terrible. This narration however was bad! I cringed when she did male voices. They all were some sort of creaky cockney, as irritating as nails on a chalk board.

riveting

I was completely lost in the story. The author paints her landscape of characters with such perfection I can see them. It was a thriller that started out strong and didnt let up on the gas.

Narration was torture

It's hard to rate the actual story because the narration is just unbearable. The accents/voices for different characters, especially male, are just bad. The story is ok, drags on a bit in a somewhat predictable fashion, but do yourself a favor and read this one instead of listening if you must.

Might have liked it.

Could not hear narration of book, so wasn't able to "read" it. Don't know what the issue was.
