Puppet

By: Joy Fielding

Narrated by: Laura Hicks

Amanda Travis is a high-powered, 28-year-old lawyer whose greatest likes are spinning classes at her Palm Beach gym and a compliant jury. As for the things she hates, they include nicknames, the color pink, clients who don't follow her advice, and memories. Unfortunately, running from her past becomes a lot harder when one of her ex-husbands calls from her hometown of Toronto with the alarming news that her mother has shot and killed a complete stranger. Now she must return to face her demons--a love that once consumed her and a mother who seems to hold a strange, dark power over everyone she encounters. But Amanda is no longer willing to acquiesce to her mother's fatal whims--no matter what the cost.©2005 Joy Fielding, Inc. (P)2008 BBC Audiobooks America

Downward Spiral

Listening to the main character continue to repeat things to herself and virtually lose her mind was agitating. The plot started off well but became a nuisance. The narration was also bad

Amanda’s character

The story itself was ok. The character of Amanda was so intensely annoying that I almost stopped listening a few times.

Bad reviews are not warranted

I almost didn’t pick this one even tho it’s free because some said the narrator was bad, some said the story was bad, someone said both. Glad I decided to go with my gut. Character developments were stellar, the storyline was easy to follow and still kept me guessing. I will look for this author again

Great narration and storyline

I really enjoy the writing style and twists. The narrator is very talented. Definitely recommend!

Sooo good!!

You just have to hang in, the twists and turns. Mind blown. It’s worth listening to.
