Obsession

Faces of Evil Series, Book 1

By: Debra Webb

Narrated by: Carol Schneider

Special Agent Jess Harris has spent more than a decade studying the many faces of evil. In her determination to stop a serial killer, she broke the rules, and it cost her everything.

With her career in need of resuscitation and her love life dead and buried, Jess jumps at a chance to advise on a case that has the top detectives of Birmingham, Alabama, stumped. But the case forces her to confront all the reasons she put her hometown-and her first love-in her rearview mirror.

Four young women have gone missing, and Police Chief Dan Burnett will do anything to find them before it's too late - even if it means asking for help from the woman who has spent a decade avoiding him. Jess agrees to lend a hand and welcomes the diversion of a new case, a new life to save to make up for the victims she's lost. But then the unthinkable happens: the crazed serial killer from her past follows Jess to Birmingham. The situation is becoming increasingly desperate, and time is swiftly running out...

Keeping you at edge of seat

Characters seem so realistic. You don’t know what’s going to happen next! It was exciting

Narration drove me crazy

Story was good, thriller mixed with a little romance and the narration was fine until she started trying to do the southern accent. OMG!!! I have never ever heard such a bad attempt at a southern accent. I couldn’t tell if it Boston or New England accent or what especially is the male characters. It really ruined it for me it was that bad.

GREAT SERIES!! GREAT NARRATOR!!

This is a wild ride, a chilling and human story. Debra Webb puts a human face on evil and Carol Schneider brings it to life authentically. Well done all around.

Engrossing story

A little romance , a lot of suspense without a predictable ending. Ms Webb is a writer I will be searching for in future.

Great find!

This book was recommended and selected for a group listen. This author and narrator are new to me, but were a great find! Talk about suspense, suspense, suspense! It was light on violence and gore, but still had my heart thumping and me holding me breath in anticipation. And, talk about twisted characters! These were not your run of the mill crazy people. They were down right disturbing!

I really liked this book from beginning to end. The narrator was different, but really good. Her voice had just enough roughness or edge to really fit the characters. Her characterizations were good and she pulled you into the story. You felt the fear, anxiety, frustration, and determination of the characters. It was just light enough not to be too heavy, and just heavy enough to have some teeth. I'm definitely looking forward to the rest of this series.
