Cassandra Campbell
From former NPR correspondent Mary Louise Kelly comes a heart-pounding story about fear, family secrets, and one woman's hunt for answers about the murder of her parents.
Two words: the bullet. That's all it takes to shatter her life.
Caroline Cashion is beautiful, intelligent, a professor of French literature. But in a split second, everything she's known is proved to be a lie.
A single bullet, gracefully tapered at one end, is found lodged at the base of her skull. Caroline is stunned. It makes no sense: She has never been shot. She has no entry wound, no scar. Then, over the course of one awful evening, she learns the truth: she was adopted when she was three years old, after her real parents were murdered. Caroline was there the night they were attacked. She was wounded too, a gunshot to the neck. Surgeons had stitched up the traumatized little girl with the bullet still there, nestled deep among vital nerves and blood vessels.
That was thirty-four years ago.
Now Caroline has to find the truth of her past. Why were her parents killed? Why is she still alive? She returns to her hometown, where she meets a cop who lets slip that the bullet in her neck is the same bullet that killed her mother - full-metal jacket, .38 Special. It hit Caroline's mother and kept going, hurtling through the mother's chest and into the child hiding behind her.
Caroline is horrified - and in danger. When a gun is fired, it leaves markings on the bullet, tiny grooves almost as unique as a fingerprint. The bullet in her neck could finger a murderer. Can Caroline unravel the clues to her past before the killer tracks her down?

The reader has talent for sure. Great accents. I would search her out except that I was tricked so badly by the sample...
Should be titled "So you got shot as a kid, get over it."

Fortunately, I switched between the book and the audiobook-- and the latter was terrible. At first it wasn't so bad, but when she does others' voices? OMG. Terrible! The male voices are silly and stereotypical, southerners are comedic, and law enforcement have a "dopiness" to them. It's like she tried to put her own perspective on the characters by the way she defined their speech patterns and drawl ("Whay, hullo there, little lady, arentcha a pretty little thang?") More than once, I laughed out loud before going into a cringe.
If you can suspend the annoyance, you may be okay.
Fun & entertaining....but cringe-worthy reader!

I would rank The Bullet among the top contenders that I have listened to since being a member for several years.What was one of the most memorable moments of The Bullet?
Near the end, totally unexpected.What does Cassandra Campbell bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I enjoyed Cassandra Campbell's narration especially her french accent was spot on. Her voice is an easy listen and the different characters to her switching from female-male isn't noticeable. I look forward to listening to more books she narrates.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
When Caroline found out she had a bullet in her neck.Any additional comments?
This book is a terrific, mystery/thriller with a lot of twists. The main character is named Caroline Cashion and she is a French literature professor at Georgetown University. She lives a quiet, respectable life, steady and dependable plus resembles Nigella the english cook. The story develops into a good mystery once Caroline has a MRI to determine what is causing her wrist pain. Surprise, it's a bullet! The narrator " Cassandra Campbell" in my opinion is excellent.Biting the Bullet!
