Publisher's summary

There are three rules Brooke Sullivan must follow as a new nurse practitioner at a men’s maximum-security prison:

1) Treat all prisoners with respect.

2) Never reveal any personal information.

3) Never EVER become too friendly with the inmates.

But none of the staff at the prison knows Brooke has already broken the rules. Nobody knows about her intimate connection to Shane Nelson, one of the penitentiary’s most notorious and dangerous inmates.

And they certainly don’t know that Shane was Brooke’s high school sweetheart—the star quarterback who is now spending the rest of his life in prison for a series of grisly murders. Or that Brooke's testimony was what put him there.

But Shane knows.

And he will never forget.

Another twisty ride by Freida McFadden!

She is the queen of twists! The story held my attention and I didn’t want to stop listening!

The narrator was excellent other than her pronunciation "Penitentiary" which was just odd. I don't know how that wasn't picked up on during production.

Good book and good narration

Not my favorite but it's still good. Maybe expectations are getting a bit too high when I read her books. Narration was solid. Story wasn't quite as twisty as I was led to believe from other reviewers but still good.

It's worth a credit.

definitely a book that was hard to pause!

great story line! I thought I had it figured out after the first half of the book, but that ending was just OMG! I'd definitely recommend this for any of my thrill listeners that love a surprise ending.

Good story

This is a good story, I just had a few hang ups that I found annoying. First, the way the narrator pronounced certain words had me cringing. Second, as a corrections nurse, so many parts of working in a prison are so far off it was ridiculous. Blaming the prison for not being aware of your personal relationship with an inmate (being it's your responsibility to report that to security) to bringing your cell phone into a prison, and so many things in between. Putting that aside I enjoyed the story and the twists and turns.
