About this listen

A family of four murdered in their hotel room. A single mother and her boyfriend both stabbed to death. A sordid history of violent crimes, repeated over and over - but decades apart.

Olivia Barker is a therapist with no connection to the murders. But she has heard things. Stories that keep her up at night. Details that only a killer would know. A killer who could be one of her patients…Olivia has no proof for her suspicions. But as the body count rises, so do her fears.

A rock is thrown through her window, her car tires are slashed, a chilling message is scrawled on her bathroom mirror. Olivia knows she's getting closer to the truth. But the truth could be the last thing she'll ever know....

UNSPEAKABLE grabs you and won't let go!

Any additional comments?

This mystery thriller made me laugh and cry, be courageous and shake with fear, also, feel proud and feel disappointment, but most of all it kept me guessing what was going to happen next. Kevin O'Brien knows how to paint a perfect picture with words. Narrator, Todd Haberkorn, is an outstanding reader.

Predictable, but engaging

Any additional comments?

Overall, I enjoyed the story. Todd Haberkorn's performance was good, but I was very distracted by his mis-pronunciation of different cities and towns in the NW (and even the Oregonian newspaper!). It's not something you would notice if you don't know the proper pronunciations, but given that the author has lived in Seattle for a very long time, I'm surprised that this recording passed muster.

Unspeakable Review

Unspeakable is the 2nd book that I have listened to by this author. The book kept me interested from the beginning to the end. I loved the characters, story, and narrator. Not only do I recommend this book but I plan to listen to it again.

Fascinating novel, well-developed.

My only complaint is that the narrator mispronounced nearly all the place-names. If one is narrating a book with specific local placenames, PLEASE learn the correct pronunciations before starting the narration! Sheesh. Put a real damper on listening to the book, which was otherwise excellent.

Great listen

This started out slow for me but I ended up loving it. It’s been awhile since I yelled at fictional characters but towards the end I was doing just that. I was surprised at the end but definitely cheered at the last epilogue.

Great book to listen too

I enjoyed this book. The beginning catches your attention and you just follow along. Some of the middle gets a little drawn out but it is a great book.

Will hold your interest

While this book started a little slow, once it picked up, you had to continually listen. The story was good, very well narrated. I recommend this book highly. I thought the author developed the characters quite well, you could see them. Good visionaries.
