The Swimmer

A Novel

De: Loreth Anne White

Narrado por: Reba Buhr

A deviously twisty novel of psychological suspense about secrets, neighbors, a need to belong, and murder by the award-winning author of The Maid’s Diary.

Socially awkward Chloe Cooper divides her time between dog walking, bartending, caring for her ailing mother, and at a safe distance, watching people and inventing the stories of their lives. Like Chloe’s new neighbors: glamorous influencer Jemma Spengler and Jemma’s husband, Adam, a renowned surgeon. They’re attractive, wealthy, and in a house of open windows, so exposed.

A move to the Pacific Northwest is supposed to be a fresh start for Jemma and Adam. It’s a renewed commitment to a marriage fractured by secrets. A chance to work through the tragic losses in their past. For Jemma, however, this new beginning also comes with an unnerving sensation that she’s being watched.

Then, on a fog-shrouded beach early in the morning, Chloe witnesses the murder of a swimmer. Her suspicions aroused, she suddenly sees her neighbors in a sinister new light. But as a detective and her partner close in, nothing is quite as it seems. Because the Spenglers are not the only ones with secrets. And Chloe isn’t the only one who’s been watching.

Started great…..but poor ending

The first half of one book was very good, but as it goes on , that changed. It became an unbelievable story line with an easily predictable ending. I found some of the main characters ridiculous in the story. The concept was there, but failed miserably with ending ,


Narration was good, but this one’s going back .

Captivating Characters

I really enjoyed this thriller by White. It was fast paced and kept me engaged throughout. It's also part KU, no need to spend if you have KU. WELL WORTH IT EITHER WAY!

Gripping

Very good story with a few twists. Great narration. Kept me guessing. Recommend this story

3.5 Stars - Decent Story

Nothing mind-blowing or groundbreaking, but a solid story. Didn't really connect with any of the characters, but the story was interesting enough. Kept me engaged, but very forgettable.

Fantastic!!

This was the best book I have listened to for a very long long time. What an excellent storyline and so very well written and narrated. Everything was 5 stars about this book. I was so drawn into the characters I could not stop listening. I will be thinking about this book for a long time. Don't hesitate...it's definitely worth a credit.
