Publisher's summary

"You’ll find yourself listening to the suspenseful reading by Olivia Dowd and Thomas Judd way past your bedtime."—Jersey's Best

The multimillion-copy New York Times bestselling author B.A. Paris returns to her heartland of gripping psychological suspense in The Therapist—a powerful tale of a house that holds a shocking secret.

When Alice and Leo move into a newly renovated house in The Circle, a gated community of exclusive houses, it is everything they’ve dreamed of. But appearances can be deceptive…

As Alice is getting to know her neighbors, she discovers a devastating secret about her new home, and begins to feel a strong connection with Nina, the therapist who lived there before.

Alice becomes obsessed with trying to piece together what happened two years before. But no one wants to talk about it. Her neighbors are keeping secrets and things are not as perfect as they seem…

Disappointing

I loved the book Behind Closed Doors. It was so clever, and I was super excited for this one. However unfortunately this story was quite predictable and the narration was
not well done at all. It was very difficult to tell the diff in voices and who was talking which took you out of the story.

Underwhelming and Amateurish

Good if you need some background noise while mowing the lawn. The story is very amateurish and lame, and the narration can be too obnoxious. Her voice suddenly and inexplicably becomes too nasal and shrill.

The Therapist

Excellent.. Loved it. Suspenseful, a thriller and very well written. The narration was very good. I love and appreciated the fact that it had no foul language.

Don't waste your time.

I have loved other books by B.A. Paris. This story was boring and predictable. I was very disappointed.

Don’t bother

This was a horrible plot. The main character is a dim witted selfish stupid girl. The plot is horrible. I only finished because I’d paid for it. The narrator had no inflection, did not make the story any better. Save your money.

So good

Very good. Creepy and suspenseful although I kept being amazed how clueless she was but real people sometimes are that idiotic. Still it was such a good listen and I’ve been waiting for something that’s not the same old “The Girl….” genre.

Disappointed

I pre-ordered this book after I read all of B.A. Paris's other books within only a week or two. I was very disappointed with the plot, the distinction between the characters, the overall narration, the build up, and especially the ending. I was really hoping to love the ending so that the hours I spent listening would've been worth it. Maybe next time B.A. Paris..

Predictable But Not Bad

This book is not really as good as B.A. Paris's others, but it was an easy read. Very predictable plot line though sadly.
