The Pain Colony

De: Shanon Hunt

Narrado por: Noah Michael Levine, Erin deWard

Six dead bodies with one disturbing similarity. An illicit genetic experiment. A secret society of true believers willing to do whatever it takes to become pure.

And this is only the beginning.

DEA Special Agent Peter Malloy is no stranger to the devastating impact of drugs. So when six bodies turn up with surgical ports implanted in their spines, he's sure a potent new opioid is the culprit. But when lab tests show zero evidence of any known narcotics, he fears something far more sinister.

Allison Stevens thought she knew everything about her boss. But after he disappears, she's stunned to discover his secret genetic research in pain tolerance. When she becomes the target of the FBI's investigation, Allison has only one move. She must expose his illegal experiment. There's just one problem. Some secrets will be protected at any cost.

As Malloy and Allison get closer to the truth, they begin to realize they're about to uncover the most chilling medical discovery in human history.

If it doesn't get them killed.

The Pain Colony is a gripping suspense thriller - you'll be plunged into terrifying twists of modern science, chilling tension, and shocking revelations that will leave you breathless.

I enjoyed this very much

This was great
It took me awhile to finally get into it and I’m glad I did . I see it’s part of a series so I have to start the next one . Love a good story with a great twist .
I enjoy a lot of Ruth ware and Stephen king and this reminded me of both in a way

such an interesting book!!

This book was not at all what I thought it would be but in a good way! Allison has no idea her what her boss and lover has been involved in until he is arrested and she is framed for his crimes! The science behind the genetic mutations and changes were interesting and believable enough to flow with the story.The back and forth between the Colony life to what is happening in to Allison as she tries to find answers and clear her name kept me very engaged and wanting to know what would happen next. The ending was was not at all what I was expecting but I should have because all the clues were there!! This was a great book! The narration was spot on! The narrators did a great job keeping each character separate and entertaining. I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review.

Did not expect the plot twist

Great book. Starts off great, gets a little slow in the middle but the last few hours are great. I didn’t expect the ending and I can’t wait to read the next one

4/5

I really like this thriller! It plotted and churned its way through nail biting scenes that had me at the edge of my seat. I had guessed a huge plot point about half way through it and was correct about it by the end; and I want to say that it was a really cool and great concept thought out by the author that worked as a perfect plot device used throughout the book. I was really impressed with the presentation/timeline of the story; I highly recommend this book and I will definitely be reading the next book in 'The Colony' series.

twists and turns abound

I absolutely loved the story and the performance of the two readers. I was originally concerned that the plot would be over my head as I have no medical background. This could not have been further from the truth. I was engaged and looking forward to my next listen every single time I hit the stop button. Extremely well-written, intelligent and suspenseful. I thought the ending was one of the most creative I've heard.
