Publisher's summary

From the best-selling author of Only Daughter comes a twisty cat-and-mouse novella about a young woman who meets up with her ex seeking revenge, only to realize over the course of the evening that she may be the one in danger.

Scholarship law student Margot’s fling with her classmate Sam almost cost her everything. Now, she’s going out to dinner with him to a luxurious French restaurant with a plan to even the score. But Sam arrives late and is acting increasingly strangely. His hands are shaking, he’s nervous and jumpy; he’s behaving nothing like the privileged charmer she knows. As the night unfolds, Margot realizes Sam has a terrifying plan of his own.

Now available in Dolby Atmos on Audible.

It held my attention

This was a good listen, one trying to get what she wants, the other wanting help to hide something. It is short and sweet but good. I had it worked out about half way through. I enjoyed it but I didn't care for the ending, it would have been nice to know what happen to her and if she got what she needed.

The narrators did a good job, loved the effects they did, it really brought the story to life. Both did a great job, their voices blend well together. There were no background noise, no repeating of words, no volume changes. I totally enjoyed their performance.

This isn’t happening

Interesting and well crafted mystery. Readers were superb. Effects were very good and sometimes distracting. Fun quick book

Entertaining

I normally do not listen to stories less than 10 hrs long however, this one caught my eye as I was browsing so I thought I’d give it a shot.
The story is fairly interesting and very well acted out as well as edited. A few plot twists here and there keeps the listener’s attention. Was a great short story to listen to as I worked on a small project in the wood shop.
Would recommend.

Not too shabby

Other than the female protagonist being an idiot and not listening to her gut feeling, which I found annoying, this was pretty good. I did guess the ending but think it will surprise other readers. You should give it a listen.

Okay

The sound was good, maybe I was waiting a bit more from the actors, the story was fine.

A good listen

A great short story. It kept my interests and a surprisingly good ending. I honestly thought it was going in another direction.
