The Obsession

De: Nora Roberts

Narrado por: Shannon McManus

The riveting novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Liar.

“She stood in the deep, dark woods, breath shallow and cold prickling over her skin despite the hot, heavy air. She took a step back, then two, as the urge to run fell over her.”

Naomi Bowes lost her innocence the night she followed her father into the woods. In freeing the girl trapped in the root cellar, Naomi revealed the horrible extent of her father’s crimes and made him infamous. No matter how close she gets to happiness, she can’t outrun the sins of Thomas David Bowes.

Now a successful photographer living under the name Naomi Carson, she has found a place that calls to her, a rambling old house in need of repair, thousands of miles away from everything she’s ever known. Naomi wants to embrace the solitude, but the kindly residents of Sunrise Cove keep forcing her to open up - especially the determined Xander Keaton.

Naomi can feel her defenses failing, and knows that the connection her new life offers is something she’s always secretly craved. But the sins of her father can become an obsession, and, as she’s learned time and again, her past is never more than a nightmare away.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[Narrator Shannon] McManus gives a moving performance of Naomi's struggles to overcome her horrific past in a psychological thriller listeners won't want to miss." (AudioFile)

love love love!

A story I will read (listen to) again and again! Can't wait for the next adventure

To me, it's pretty obvious who it was

What a beginning, then it slows and you are wondering when the craziness will start again. Then it does and you are wondering why and how.

To me, it's pretty obvious who it was. I wanted to scream at Naomi and Mason, they should have known. They really should have figured this out.

Overall, great plot. The family of a psycho killer suffers just as much as his victims. Amazing journey and ending for Naomi.

Kept me glued to my ear buds

First time listener to Nora Roberts. Love her writing style. Hated to put this story down. Great writing and the narrator was top draw.

Best yet

I have read and listened to many, many Nora Roberts books. This was my favorite!! The story was compelling, the characters strong, and the love story of the family and the lead characters perfectly weaved throughout.

Outstanding Mystery

Although at times I felt I was reading a script from the TV series, 'Criminal Minds', this story held my interest, A good mystery with a love story woven in. Vivid descriptions of the huge estate purchased by Naomi made we wish I could visit there.

The Obesession

Was very well-written derspriction of the locations were in mark the story kept you wondering what next and where.

Great read!

The story was suspenseful yet realistic. It kept me sitting in my car on more than one occasion.

Engaging, interesting, enjoyable.

I loved the story from start to finish. There was not one dull moment. Even though I managed to figure out who tbe serial killer was, I still enjoyed listening in anticipation if my gueas wss right.

Great read

I enjoyed this book a great deal. It gets the chills running up your neck and has just the right amount of detail to keep you hooked the whole time. I felt like the climax was a little short, and maybe could have been a little more drawn out suspenseful, because the entire book was set up like that, but overall a great book. Narrator did a good job and wasn't cheesy or over the top.

AMAZING book - Thriller

This has by far been one of the best books I have read in a very long time. I have never read and Nora Roberts book before. This one captured me from the very first chapter. And the suspense and nerves carry on to the end of the book. I would recommend this book to everybody!
