Publisher's Summary

Angila was stabbed 44 times.

This was personal.

On a November morning in 2015, Christopher Jackson waited for his fiancée, Angila Wilder, to pick him up from work as she always did. But this time, she didn’t show - and Christopher’s calls went unanswered. The police found what looked like a scene from a horror movie at their home. The backdoor kicked in. A bedroom splattered with blood. And a pregnant young woman violently stabbed to death.

Could Christopher have murdered the woman he claimed to love? Or was the crime done by an intruder Angila had feared for weeks? Angila’s womanizing ex-husband, Richie Wilder, Jr., aimed detectives straight toward Christopher. The evidence, however, pointed squarely at Richie. 

Kindergarten teacher Cynthia Wilder thought her dreams had come true when she married Richie. But while her husband sat behind bars, Cynthia grew lonely. When she shared some disturbing details with a former lover, Cynthia finally revealed the truth behind the sinister plot to kill Angila Wilder. After four years of lies and deceit, the real story would shock a community to its very core....

Cmon Mr. Wynn, didn’t you get the memo....

It’s worth spending the extra money on a experienced and exceptional narrator, as it will make or break the nook, no matter how brilliantly written. This book was good but would have been great, but I was distracted with the subpar narration. Not horrible but distracting.

Incredibly shocking and intriguing story

I just wanted to touch on the point of the narrator since others seemed to make it as if she ruined the story. It is not nearly as bad as others have made it out to be and the story is definitely worth the read! It’s very well written, intriguing, and keeps you pulled in wanting to know more throughout the book. No, she was not the best narrator I’ve ever heard only due to the times she would try to use her “manly” voices for characters at times which was annoying at first. However, just as with many other audible books, once you get used to the narrative style, it’s not really noticeable anymore and you are pulled into the storyline, rather than the narrative aspect. Also, it was nice that it was used much more in the first couple chapters then in the remainder of the book. So once you get past the beginning it’s much easier. Had it not been for her voice overs or change of voice to betray male characters I do not believe there would’ve been any negative comments regarding her as she has an overall easy to follow, calming, & smooth voice.

Great book

Great writing! Horrible narrator...so many words mispronunced. Is there no audible director or editor? A disservice to an otherwise excellent book.
