The Search- just what you’re looking for- Suspense, Romance and Relevant

This is my favorite book of the series so far. Characters from the first 2 books are woven in to the story and new characters introduced. It is written masterfully and narration for these voices on point and so convincing! Don’t miss this!

Mystery done right

This has been my favorite so far in The Juniper Springs series. I enjoyed the mystery inside the mystery that this series tends to have but The Search turned it up a notch including different true crime elements for Kaylee’s podcast. And Allison & Jacob’s romance was just perfect. As always Tiffany’s narration was perfection and always has me locked in. In fact, I was so immersed in this story that I got in my head pulling into work over the weekend and seeing a coworkers car parked there outside of normal hours. I totally had it in my mind I was going to walk into my own mystery. Definitely didn’t happen. I was just channeling my inner Avery 😂😂😂 Anyway, The Search is a for sure yes for me! If you enjoy mystery listens you should definitely give this one a try.

Compelling From the First Clue to the Last

This one had me locked in from the start. A podcaster disappears without a trace, leaving behind one chilling message: “I think someone is after me.” From there, the story unfolds through investigation, tension, and a lot of unanswered questions that kept stacking up.

What really worked for me was how the mystery was built. The podcasts as clues? Such a smart choice. You feel like you’re piecing things together right alongside the characters. Allison and Jacob teaming up to find Kaylee gave the story real emotional weight, and the dynamic between them added another layer I wasn’t expecting but absolutely welcomed.

And can we talk about Tiffany Vanlandingham’s narration? So solid. She kept the pacing tight and the tension high without overdoing it. The story already had strong bones, but the narration elevated it even more.

It wasn’t easy to guess where this was going — and I loved that. When the truth finally came out, it clicked in a way that made me want to mentally rewind and replay everything. The clues were there. I just didn’t see them at the time.

I’m fully committed to this series now. Juniper Springs continues to deliver.

If you like:
True-crime-style storytelling, audio-driven mysteries, or small-town suspense with recurring characters, this one’s for you.
