I think I am done now

I have been binging everything Frieda for a month. “Ward D” was a huge disappointment and while this was better, it is not “The Housemaid” or it’s sequel.
“Never Lie” was fine.
I think I prefer the sophisticated Freida. This is not that.

Entertaining Story

I liked this one a lot, not my favorite but it was still entertaining. I got through it pretty quick. I’m sorry though, when I saw who narrated it, I was disappointed, I just cannot stand her voice, you get used to it. But no real change from any other story, very monotone.

Bland and predictable

Not a bad book - just completely predictable. I prefer unexpected twists and turns. Not McFadden’s best work.

Great Book

Insanely incredible I was intrigued from the beginning to end. It was the twist and turns for me. Definitely didn't expect them.

A Thrill Ride

Story had lots of twists. Totally engaging. Narrator was excellent. Highly recommend this. Am so glad that I recently discover this amazing author!

Good Story

Lot of very good twists! Good narrator. I would recommend. Much better than Brain Damage.

Plot twist

She got me again. This one was a nice soft read the plot twist was still there and the story was easily followed. The performer was amazing !!! 10/10 would recommend

Another great thriller by FM.

It was very engaging. The narrator did a good job of reading the story. I would recommend it.

Much better than I expected.

I don’t want to spoil for anyone but parts of this book will make you super angry 😉. So much better than I expected especially around half way through. I recommend giving it a listen. If you listen while cleaning house, you will find yourself scrubbing the floors a little harder. 😂

Caught my attention

She is now on of my new favorite authors. I'm keeping an eye out for all of her new books
